Reshaping your life









By: John Wayne Owens

Here are four areas that you need to research within yourself and evaluate thoroughly from your heart, mind, and spirit. Reconstruction means to tear down and rebuild. You may have some structural life damage that needs to be inspected and/or modified.  Life can bring on unexpected wear and tear that may cause severe mental and spiritual deterioration.  It is important to embrace new growth and development; which will assist in re-charting your path towards meaningful and radical changes.

Overcoming or recovering from your past can be challenging but, your future is counting on you; to be the master of your fate as you walk by FAITH. The renewal and transformation process allows no room for excuses but sincere execution. This is a defining moment in your life that will reassemble your relationships and purpose back to life.  When you address the items below, you will experience a new, insightful knowledge about your spiritual and practical lifestyle that is ever so evolving; everyday of your life. 

·         Your relationship with God:

Thoughts of starting over



   'Sometimes we just have to Ctrl-Atl-Delete"

What does it mean to renew your life?  How can you really say "my life is renewed"? When I was pastoring my mission was to minister to the real issues of life that most churches did not want to address. I did not want people to come to church and get an emotional happy one day charge, when they really desired and needed a life time fix. Changing and repentance is what renewing is all about; why do we always run from our past.  I finally realized that my past has helped me to embrace the here and now. Which caused me to pause and say thanks for His grace and mercy!

The thoughts of starting over seem so grudging and weary, all the mental work that it requires to really move forward and press through and release myself from me. Just thinking about it makes tired. I want you to know that the one way to get through is to know what is in you is for you.  Starting with internal healing is when you make the decision and move towards the vision and purpose for your life and forgive yourself and anyone else that has offended you and all your haters. Make a conscious effort to redirect your life towards the place and purpose you truly believe within your heart, soul and spirit. Being to pray and move with caution in the will of God for your life.  Do not let people stop you from what is to be and miss your mission and purpose. Have your desires tattooed to your heart and trust God he will keep His promise. 

This is the only chance that you will have in this life to perform that which He has placed you.  So, have you been procrastinating and pondering your next moves in your life?

Time to Evaluate

"We have only now to make tomorrow better and brighter"





John Wayne Owens

Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See I am doing a new thing! 
Isaiah 43:18-19 (KJV)

Why Purpose?
To reassess YOU and begin a renewed journey towards a life that is filled with reachable and realistic goals and dreams. Identify where you are now as it relates to your family, faith, finance, and future. Complete and confirm your rightful place in Christ, and capture the experience of living the abundant life that God promised in His word.  Accept what has happened, improve on what is, and take the fragments of your life and create a masterpiece for God’s glory and live.
“To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.”
Isaiah 61:3
R&R...Rewind and Review
In order to begin the process of creating a better life for yourself, you must first examine the rationale of the here and now of your current situation. Yield yourself to pause and rewind your life back for a moment; to assess some things about you. This will help you rediscovery your frailties and qualities, as you begin to regain balance and reposition your life. Recreating your posture, with a new attitude, both spiritually and mentally, will reveal and redefine your true purpose, plan, and mission for your new life. Establishing a firm foundation of who you are in Christ and trusting in His word will affirm his original purpose for your life. This activity is designed to assist you through the process of renewing you from what you were and transforming you towards all you can be:
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature:
old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new
II Corinthians 5:17 (KJV)
