Many times we will say things like "the Lord needs to do a work in me". And while that is certainly true, sometimes what that statement does is give us a cop-out to doing the work we need to do.
The Scriptures say "Faith without works is dead" James 2:26. Because God lives outside of time, He has already begun the work in you. That is evidenced by the fact that you know work needs to be done. He placed that desire to "get it right" in you, He placed the people and situations in your path.
That was His part. The first part for you is to believe. That is the faith. The next part -the work... Some people find it easy to work, and others find it easy to believe. You must have both. Why, because work without faith is just work... So yeah, it takes two baby.
I love you and I am praying for you.
