I wish I could always feel gratitude the way I should. I'm greatful that I don't have to smoke use drugs, drink, or carouse. I'm greatful, that when God puts his woman in my life that I won't feel guilty when I'm doing something that I was doing with some one else a little while before. I'm greatful most of all that while I was a sinner Jesus still died for me.
These are just a few things that pop to mind. Actually I'm feeling a little edgy right now, still learning how to stay in the spirit. 6:15 For having circumcision is nothing, and not having circumcision is nothing, but only a new order of existence. make that 5:16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. I just finished taking the guys from the house to an AA meeting. It was hard enough watching the guys as they strutted around trying to make arangements to "hook up" after they leave the house. but occasionally thes lady or that lady would give me a major hug.
Knowing what I know about the fatal consequences I tried as well as I could to step back, but I left myself open to a lot of criticism from the guys who were telling me to "lighten up". Then I started to think wy am I so puckered up. I'm a little lonely and not looking forward to the upcoming holidays. But I now serve a risen savior. I reckon there are occasional attacks to look forward to and I guess the lonliness ticket is the enemies best attack, or the salvation of the family ticket.
But it really brinks up my demeanor and how it effects the Great commision; how do I come across do I come across as if I'm happier, if not maybe I need to be counting more blessings.
I also have tp think about how judgemental I am concerning others am I harbouring unforgiveness. Oh well that's for another BLOG I reckon. |
