Today while I was reading a blog I was very encouraged by this girls strong faith in God and strong convictions that she has. As I read post after post about the thoughts she had on serving God, praying, witnessing, and such, I was reminded once again of how far away from God I had gotten. In sadness I thought about how hard it is to get back to where I use to be, but I knew I couldn't blame it on God. Our LORD never makes it hard for us to come back, the hard part is giving up bad habits and start living a selfless life. Sin is fun for a season, but I have come to realize that even when the fun runs out, it's still hard to give up. Even if it is something as small as selfishness or using my time unwisely. I'm reminded of this verse and quote that everyone should live by.
"Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom." Proverbs 18:1
"Sometimes I do what I want to, but most of the time I do what I have to do." ~ Bro. Mark McGaughey

Thought provoking...it is easy to become drawn away, especially with using time unwisely. Thanks for the reminder!
