Hey family, welcome back to transcend with Ebony. It's Ebony here dropping by with another quick message. Welcome back everyone. If this happens to be your first time here, welcome to the family. If you happen to be listening in on the podcast, welcome to another episode. I just have a quick message for someone.
This person, you got this person confused. You got this person losing their minds trying to figure out how how you how you why you. Now you've stepped into your true authenticity, your God-given purpose. You're walking in purpose. And this individual is losing it because even though they may be looking at you from afar, the fact that the Lord's hand and favor is all over your life is evident and it's got them losing it because for one, though they may hate on you, though they may talk about you, though they may have run multiple smear campaigns, things about you behind your back. This person secretly envies you. This person wants to be you. This person cannot be you. See, this person don't have the heart that you have. They talk about you, talk down on you, try and break you down, try and slander your name, but then at the same time, they sitting back taking notes. They're watching you and they're taking notes because they're trying to figure out for the life of them how you got to this level. How did you grow? How did you transform? How have you advanced to the level that you're on? They saw you. They remember you last being that that last version of you. That person who, you know, wasn't perfect and you're not perfect now, but that person who may have had issues with certain things or, you know, you were unhealed, you may have been broken, you may have been insecure, things like that.
But now, now that you've been walking with the Lord, now that you've been healing, now that you have decided to surrender to the Lord and you've allowed him to transform you by the renewing of your mind, now your entire life has shifted. You have allowed the Lord to strip you down. He has pruned you. You have gone through your wilderness season, your wilderness season of being tucked away. The Lord tucked you away for a while. For someone, I'm feeling this has been for a couple years. You were tucked away off grid pretty much. You know, no one was able to hear from you, see you, none of that because God was working on you because you chose God. You chose God. You chose to surrender to the Lord. And just like the word says, "Seek you first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and allow all these things to be added unto you." You have sought God. You have sought him in every way, shape, and form. When he was blessing you, you continued to seek him, praise him, thank him. When he allowed you to go through trials and upheavals, you continued to thank him, to be grateful, to express gratitude for where you were, you continue to seek him. You continue to walk by faith, not by sight. You continue to walk the narrow path with the Lord, and you continue to keep him first, no matter what you've dealt with. Through the losses, through the challenges, through the trials, the tribulations, the upheavals, the losses, the wins, you have continued to be faithful in your walk with the Lord. And now you're reaping your harvest. And it doesn't necessarily have to be all tangible. The majority of the harvest that you are reaping is the peace that you are filled with, the true love that you feel within for God and yourself and that you feel from God. Having peace of mind, having healed all of the old trauma, the childhood trauma wounds, the heartaches, the pain, the betrayals, all of those things that you have endured that many people harbor in and hold on to and allow that to cause them to be bitter, resentful, spiteful, envious, hateful. You've surrendered all those things to God.
That individual is trying to figure out how they can crack the code to the level that you're on, but they can't. Many people see the after effects. Many people see the blessing and they want the blessing, but they have no idea what it took for you to get here. They have no idea the challenges, the heartache, the upheavals, the betrayals, the challenges that you've had to endure and overcome just to be where you are today. It wasn't easy. And even now, where you are is not a destination. This is a journey. And this person has to realize that they've got to walk their own journey. We've all got to work out our own salvation with fear and trembling. You did the work. They got to do the work, but they are losing their minds to see the person who you've become. They can't believe that you've become the person you've become. To see you from who you were to see you now is mindblowing to them. It's mindboggling to them. They cannot think of for the life of them what you did that they didn't do. It's a lot. Well, really it's only one thing and that was choose God and everything else after that went along with that. But yeah, you got somebody losing it over there. They losing their minds. They're watching your social media. They're trying to they're talking to people, mutual acquaintances that you all had. They're trying to find out for the life of them, who is this new person? Who is this new person? How did they go from that to this? And how come I'm still stuck? They're stuck because they chose to be stuck. If they would just choose God because he who the son sets free is free indeed. But these individuals refuse to seek God. That's why they continue to remain bound.
And you know, even when you do choose God, there's still quite the journey that you have. Like I say, it's not a destination, it's a journey. Healing is like an onion. There's layers to it. You peel back one layer, you got another. You peel back one layer, you got another. You heal this area, and then you realize what other trauma and what other wounds you have under there that maybe have been suppressed or compartmentalized or been tucked away. Many times we go through things and we suppress them. We as a self-defense mechanism as a way to try and cope and for us to handle the situation and overcome. A lot of times we try and pretend as if they're not there, like the trauma didn't happen, like the betrayal didn't happen, that heartache didn't happen. But in reality, that's why so many people walk around snappy and with bad attitudes and all of these things. If they would just see God and actually get to the root of those issues, they would realize that those things that they tried to compartmentalize need to come to the surface so that they can be addressed and healed. It's like you clean a house and it's like sweeping all the dust under the rug. What good is that doing? Yeah, it appears to be clean if you just glance in the door or you walk in. But if you really get down to it, you pick up that rug, you gonna see everything. You know, it's time to heal. It's time to heal, family. It's time to transcend.
And the thing of it is you're transcending. You were going along your journey. You were making forward movement each and every day. And this person can't figure out for the life of them. Who? What's going on? They say, "Happa, who this woman?" That's what they said. Who this woman? Who this man? What happened to that old version of them that I knew? What happened to that old version of them that I knew? This ain't them. All glory be to God. No looking back. So, continue along your journey. Continue transcending. But yeah, just know they over there with their head in their hands losing it because of your growth, because of your breakthrough, because of your transformation. You continue to shine like the diamond you are. So I love you all. God loves you all. God bless you all. Talk to you soon. Till next time. [Music]
