Looking Forward to Step 8

Well, I made it back for more. It seems as though I can't get enough, that's how great God is.

Yesterday, I found the source to my weed (problems) issue and that allowed me to get to the root of my issues. So I was able to pull my weeds (problems) out of my garden by the root. I've learned that if you never get to the root of the issue, it'll keep coming back. That's what's been going on in my life, I try to remove the issue itself and I never deal with the root of the issue. But that was the old me, the new me, is a new creature by the renewing of my mind.

Today, since my garden is free of weed, I supplied some nutrients in it. I must say, it's looking pretty good. I know that I have to keep it up so that it doesn't become worse than what it was before. Meaning, I've removed my problems and I replaced them with Godly ways. Matthew 12: 43-45 says it all When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he (the unclean spirit) walks through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. Then he says, I will return into my house from where I came out; and when he returns, he finds it empty, swept, and garnished. Then he goes, and brings with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first.
