Reading this essay, I guess you are wondering what is to be transformed, and what threshold that needs measuring. It’s okay being perplexed by another person’s anxiety without awareness of their situation. Perhaps this essay will give you insight on a personal plight, or even allow you to empathize on my behalf. It is perfectly okay to do so. I will speak personally for the most part, but will be generic when there’s a need where basic understanding would readily reach others for affinity.  However, change is inevitable after living my life so long with all kinds of trials and tribulation triggering angst all across the board. I found myself not measuring up to the standards God set for me…it was easy to second guess good intent in lieu of me finding ways keeping my head above water. I must admit unfortunately that my spiritual values were compromised simply because I didn’t embrace anything that was taught to me otherwise. Time and time and timing are synonymous with challenging the giants that towered above me, Linger long enough with Christian mores in your midst and there’s no choice but to find other options doing the right thing. The Holy Spirit is like that—when you least expect it you’ll get a visit casting doubt on all of your perceived problematic issues. When crossing any line of demarcation I used one word as a definitive measure for better direction. I called it thresholds. Thresholds in this sense are those in-between moments when I’m on the verge of allowing change to finally give me new leases on life for transformation. I’m ready, for sure. Whether we are walking across an actual threshold or a metaphorical one, sometimes understanding is not there to fathom directional fortitude. In these times of passage thresholds might not be all that they are made to be…and I’m not being pessimistic but concerned about being apprehensive so to speak whether the right direction is where I’m headed. I’d be the first to admit that we need some measure of thresholds in the Christian life—spaces to stop, look and listen and be welcomed for new horizons. It’s a life that isn’t meant to be a steady and always a comfortable means of a trouble-free life. The enemy sees to it that that is a norm. I’m asking myself what are the ways and means for successful transformation…how can I be galvanized protecting me from failure? Where do I start?
