I remember the day like it was yesterday.

I had lost a cat and because of this crisis I went to the pound to see if I could find my lost kitty.

While at the pound I found a tiny little kitty who was not in good health and I also noticed that the pound was a horrible mess.

I asked my husband if we could take the sick kitty home and he was a dear and said,”Yes.” He always had a soft heart for animals.

I took this kitty home and prayed over the little ball of fur for a few days and then I told God I wasn’t going to pray anymore over this because I thought I could handle this on my own.

The very next day the kitty stopped eating. Didn’t take me long to start praying and rush her to the vet.

That kitty lasted thirteen years and she was a sweetheart all of those years.

Lately I have realized that I have essentially told God that I thought He wasn’t big enough to handle some of my problems.

I have always had difficulty with putting things back. This is because of my ADHD and it is very frustrating for me to have my house look like a tornado has hit it. It takes so very long for me to clean it up because I haven’t been successful with cleaning it up on a daily basis.

I recently took this to God in prayer and then I began taking my vitamins and my supplements on a regular basis and took what I thought He would want me to take.

I can not take my ADHD medication because it flares up my arthritis so bad that I can not walk or exercise on a daily basis when I take it. So I just stopped taking that and I am glad I did.

Over the course of a week or so I noticed that I was becoming fastidious in my habits. I was putting things away right away and doing so on a consistent basis. I also didn’t hate it like I used to, in fact I kind of enjoyed doing it.

Now I am in the process of making this a habit. I have done this before with weaknesses in my character and I have transformed those weaknesses through the power of the Holy Spirit into great strengths.

It all starts with prayer and then walking in obedience to God’s direction. If you partner with God through prayer you can transform your character.
