Making Difficult but Necessary Changes

Sometimes I think I just reach that place where I cannot deny where I am any longer and must change almost everything. I suddenly wake up to the voice of God and realize I have been allowing a bad situation to continue as is much too long.
Has that ever happened to you? You go through your day to day activities the same, dealing with really difficult situations and humbling yourself as you carefully watch your back for years.
Then, BOOM!
One day you realize the situation where you are isn't going to improve.
And that there is absolutely nothing you can do to improve the situation as long as you stay.
That you literally have two (2) choices. To stay and continue to deal with a bad situation
Or
To change your situation!
And so, very slowly and prayerfully, you begin to take the necessary steps.
Step #1~ "God, what is Your will for my life in this circumstance? Is this where You want me? Am I here to grow? Am I serving You by being here?"
Step #2~ "God, where will You send me next? Please prepare me for the next assignment! Please open doors for where I am to go and close doors to a future I should avoid. Help me to be a child who pleases You above all else."
