I'm not perfect. AH shocker I know haha. But no, I fail. Daily.
It gets really old really fast. I am thankful for forgivness and understanding of my parents, my siblings, my friends, and most all my God.
But I wonder sometimes... why do I continue to do these failings? Now, somethings I am able to tackle for a while anyways (1 month and counting, MH) while other things I can't. Or I just don't want to. Maybe a little bit of both.
I know I can't do anything without Christ and the Holy Spirit. But what about the "grey" areas? Things that SEEM wrong, but don't FEEL wrong. Things that I want to do but would never tell anyone about.
What about lying? Something we all do, but shouldn't. Something I am working on.
Or laziness (case in point, writing this when I should be putting dinner away)
Or the bigger things too. Sometimes I wonder how I can be a follower of Christ and still struggle with such pervasive sins. I confess them to God, and ask forgiveness, and sometimes resist. But there are just so many times that I have failed.
Lord, forgive me.
I LOVE YOU.
ReplyDeleteI'm so thankful for forgiveness and grace, too.
Resist. FLEE. :)
