Yay, my blog! I've had some blogs before but I havent really kept up on them, or I used them more as a way to passively communicate things to people that I couldnt say to their face. It is my hope that this blog doesnt ever turn into that, but more of a way to process things and share my life with others.
Sin is annoying. It causes pain and frustration. The damages can last for long extended periods of time. Even as I type these things I can think of verses about the joy of God, but I am struggling with making the choice of pursuing righteousness and God. I have been reading "The Ascent of a Leader" and I do recognize the difficulty with leading people and feeling the temptation to put up a front that everything is ok and I have it all figured out. I dont, I'm still learning a lot from God. I think I always will be, but I need to choose God and choose to seek him. It's not a really easy decision... it may only get harder as we live our lives, or it may get easier. I'm not sure about that.
I want to keep growing towards God. I pray that God helps me in my life, and uses my friends around me to keep me looking towards Him.
I like this verse:
Rom 7:24-25
What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!
Choosing to trust God in my life, which is only possible because of His grace.
