My dear child, I know that you are anxious to move forward, but I want you to know that I am accomplishing critical finishing touches in you right now so that you are fully ready to move on. These last few things that must change are important because if you cannot do the right thing now, then you won't be able to do the right thing later on.

I have tested you in these areas many times and each time you have made a little more progress. Now you have reached a place where you must do the right thing the first time and every time, rather than lapsing into old behavior just because it seems more familiar and easier to do. This is your day to stand, and you will indeed stand.

A finishing touch means that you are almost finished, so don't give up or digress back into error just because you get frustrated. You have lived for many years in the school of My Spirit so it has been a lot of difficult work everyday, but when the work is done you will be glad when you see how all these changes benefit you later on.

You have reached the threshold where you are leaving your wilderness time and you are stepping into your promised land, but you are not going forward alone. There are many people who have gone through the same things that you have so that they could be healthy for you. So be patient and allow Me to put My finishing touches upon you.
