Step Back
Ever had that feeling that you're just LOST? That's how I've felt for the longest time. A period where you can be physically there but not mentally or spiritually. I suppose its a good time to take one of those reality checks on where you're headed.
If there's one thing I've learned about myself is that I like to move and figure it out as I go along. I used to believe in the idea that there are several ways to go about doing something but there's only one way if you're ultimate goal is to honour God.
29"The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one.[a] 30Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.'[b]
Mark 12:29-30
Is there anything I'm doing to honour God??? Am I really giving my best day in and day out? More often, I'm guilty of getting by and hoping that's enough. Lately, God's just telling me that doing everything on a mediocre level doesn't bring Him glory.
11Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul. 12Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us.
1 Peter 2:11-12
I want to shine again. God grant me the humility to do so.
