Growing Pains
Let's be honest. Growing up is hard and not just the getting older part but the life lessons part as well. Since recommitting my life to God almost 4 years ago, I've experienced A LOT of spiritual growth. While growth is a good thing, some of the pains in growing are deeper than others. Last year in 2016, I went through more spiritual growth than I expected. I was holding onto things from my past and didn't realize how deep the layers were in my life. I had no idea I had buried some things so deep until they began to rise to the surface as I worked on peeling back the layers with God.
