Have you ever heard the saying "If you wanna walk with the big dogs you gotta learn to pee in the tall grass"? From a financial interpretation it means that you have to improve your selling tactics in order to make more money and be recognized by your boss. If we apply this "proverb" to Kingdom life it means that in order for you to grow spiritually then you have to do things according to the word of God.
A life of sin is easy. It is easy because the devil makes it so. The devil wants us to galavant cursing people, sleeping with whomever wherever we please, trick people into giving us their money and things, steal, fight because we can not see eye to eye and many more ungodly acts.
When we choose to shed the sinner life the trying times start because we are giving up the things that we are used to. We are stepping out of our comfort zone and ofcourse we have that dirty old devil trying to lure us back.
I've got news for you! A life with God is sweeter and EASIER. It may seem hard because of your TRANSITION but it isn't. Do you know how awesome it is just knowing that your REWARD is in Heaven just because you chose God? Do you know how comforting it is to realize that God has been protecting you all your life even when you didn't choose Him?
I remember an early morning of July 2014 I was driving home from a party drunk as a skunk. I remember letting off a friend along the way. I vaguely remember arriving at the toll booth however I do remember paying the toll booth clerk. I remember going into my exit lane. I woke up just in time to swerve from crashing into a parked truck on the road where I live and to drive a few meters to my gate. Even in my intoxicated state I knew that God woke me up in time and He was the one who drove me home. After I slept and woke up I saw that even in daylight and a sober mind I have NEVER parked so perfectly in my life.
Saints we CAN survive Kingdom life. We can "pee in the tall grass". Have an intimate relationship with God. Ask God to lead you to the right place of worship where you can be a soldier for Christ. If you can't give money then give your time and talents.
Be blessed Saints.
Read John chapter 17
