Over the past few weeks I have struggled with some things in my spiritual life. I have to admit....I have become very mediocre ...I feel like I have made myself go "through the motions." The things I have been struggling with were pointed out and taught and preached about yesterday day at church.
First, my heart and mind. My heart seems to have not been into anything except cooking, facebook, and netflix. Those three things are the things I have felt like doing....instead of focusing on my walk with God. I have known I have been struggling but haven't really wanted to do anything about it. I feel like yesterday was a "wake up call" for this struggle. I know its going to take hard work on my part and determination and the right focus to get my heart and mind back where it needs to be. But, I know that I want to have the right relationship with God so He can use me effectively.'
Second, Pastor Masitto preached on God's Word lighting your path. It was a wonderful message. A message I know I needed to hear. I have struggled keeping up with my daily devotions and Bible reading. I feel I have become one of those people who takes their Bible to church on Sunday then it stays on my dresser until Wednesday. I need to get myself back into God's Word. In January/February when I deactivated my facebook account was the best month....because when I didn't have the facebook account I had "more time" (well not really more time but had my focus off facebook) to spend reading the Bible.
As I said I think its amazing how the Lord works things out and you hear messages preached when you really really really need them.
