Leave the Worldly Way


I want to begin by saying, I am not writing about this to make the "worldly" mother feel bad about the life she has chosen through her choices and actions. We as a whole society have been programmed to live in a worldly way. Through television, music, governmental school programming, social media etc - it's hard to not be immersed and formed into the way the world wants you to be.


However, God specifically asked us not to be conformed to this world.



"Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect."

Romans 12:2


"Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions—is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever."

1 John 2:15-17



Leaving the worldly way through the renewal of your mind is no easy task. I continually struggle with finding the balance of living in the world, but not being of it. I see my errors in my irritation towards my children and husband, feeling as if they are in my way from achieving my worldly dreams and desires. Though I also notice this feeling dissipates the more I remove myself from the world. When I limit my time drastically on social media especially instagram. When I am sure to filter the music and the tel-lie-vision that I feed my ears and mind and instead immerse myself in spiritual teachings, love, prayer, serving... these ill feelings dissipate and I find my self enjoying my children deeply and appreciating all my husband does for us. I find myself grateful and happy for what God has given us and more.



The world does not want us to be with God because the world is not ruled by Him.


"We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one."

1 John 5:19



God. God is the only one who will cure the feelings of inadequacy and MORE! It's fun to live and have adventures and to achieve goals and dreams. And I am not saying do not strive to do those things. But what I am saying is that first - find God - Restore Jesus Christ into your mind, body and soul and allow Him to heal you - because without Him you will continue to want MORE and MORE and MORE sacrificing yourself and all that truly matters that you feel is in your way.



And they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, after being captured by him to do his will.

2 Timothy 2:26



God has a better path for you. And it doesn't require sin and demonic sacrifice that stains your soul with guilt and shame. But instead God will renew you, give you a new heart, the fruit of the spirit and life full of fulfillment that is beyond the one sold to us on a daily basis and eternal unlike the one we live in now.



And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.


But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

Galatians 5:22-23


For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.

Galatians 5:1



To be a spiritual mother is worth seeking. It's worth working for. The world will tell you the opposite. The world will encourage the other. The world will ask you to sacrifice what God has given you to become and have MORE! But you will never be quenched of thirst - but only always be thirsty and with that thirst comes internal and external damnation - heard in your mind and felt in your body… tormented through your soul.


Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst.

John 6:35


If you are struggling leaving the worldly way of life, I truly understand, and though I am not perfect, I try every single day and eventually I hope to be left with the will and presence of God.

Reach out to me and I will do my very best to help you leave the worldly path and lead you into Spiritual Motherhood.


With Love,

Haley


PS: I did not post this without Fear. In fact, anxiety overcame me - speaking the truth is hard and will def get you rejected from the world.


“If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you.

John 15:18
