Jeremiah 18:1-4 speaks to us about the Potter and the Clay. In Gods capable hands, a CRACKED pot still works! 

God knows how to take what is marred in us, flawed in us, cracked, worn and bruised in us; and turn it (us) into vessels meet for His use!

People will look at and view you from your past, BUT GOD, chose, views and uses you from your FUTURE! He knew who He called when He called you!

Remember, even a cracked mirror still shows a reflection!

Continue in the fight, even as God continues to heal you!

More Grace,

Apostle (Dr.) Octavia Standley

The in-between or TRANSITION is the place or process where God is tempering you and at the same time the enemy is trying to tempt you to QUIT!

TRANSITION- the process or a period of changing from one state or condition to another. God is changing your state, place and position, by inviting you to greater INTIMACY with Him! 

This will require forgetting the former thing and shifting into the new! Transition can be frustrating as what you THOUGHT God would do or HOW you thought God would do it, is nothing like what is happening!

Don't fall for the temptation to quit in transition! This is for your making!

Who can the "Healer" run to when they need help?

So often, people speak of Church hurt and how the Pastor "just ain't right" but its very rare where you here someone speak about "Sheep Bites," and trust me, they hurt!

Like Jeremiah, maybe you feel like God tricked you! He called you into this thing without all the details and in your desire to fulfill your assignment you gave Him a hardy "YES!"

What you weren't expecting was the impact the ministry would have on your life, family, marriage, finances and mental health!

In a world where "safe places" are hard to find, I pray that this teaching be the push you need to seek out wise counsel if you are thinking about throwing in the towel or are leading while bleeding!

Join me and my guest Apostle Shelley Morrison as we discuss "The HIDDEN Hurts of Ministry!"

In HIS Service,

Apostle Octavia Standley

Yes, sometimes...the truth does hurt. There are times where we do not want to face the "man in the mirror" so if the word of God, if another brother or sister, if your spouse, friend, boss, neighbor, Pastor and even your children, point out a hard truth about you; that pill is sometimes hard to swallow!

In this teaching, I give some pointers about the TRUTH. prayerfully it will bless you and cause even you to speak the TRUTH in LOVE!
