” You have suffered enough and warred with yourself, It’s time that you won,
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
you’ve made it now.”
– Falling Slowing in Once
Our American Culture had trained us to always look for the next thing, to always want more. Contentment is defiantly not a flesh attitude. Dave last night talked about how in 1 Tim. 6 Paul says just Be Content. Right now I am struggling with being content and being motivated to do (well basically anything). I feel like I am warring with myself to be content and to find ways to enjoy my work. Some days are better than others, just like anything else. But right now, I guess the best way I can think of to describe it, is I’m fighting my flesh. I’m fighting the apathy. I think it is always a struggle with your (or at least my) flesh and I always just got to keep my thoughts on what all God has given me and just him in general.
I read all the FYM blogs. It gets boring and monotonous but every once
in awhile I am struck by a blog that impacts me. I read one today that did just that. I encourage you to read it.
that made me cry
We all go through tough times. We expect a mountaintop experience. They are hard to come by. We are sometimes left mondering what’s up. God can you hear me.
Faith is the key. Keep trusting in the Lord. He will guild and direct you. You may see the desert, but God sees his favorite person and he loves us soooo much.
