everyday blah




Have you ever got in an everyday rut? A pit? Feeling Blah?
Sometimes I get this way.  Well, I have to say, a lot of times here lately.
I feel like I am just going through the motions of life day in and day out.  I go to work, come home, eat, sleep.  Clean house, yard work, and on and on and on.
I have realized that I have gotten back into the same routines that I have told myself when I got home from Honduras that I was going to change.  I came home in March with my  heart on fire.  I fear my fire has diminished and I struggle to find it again.  I want to do what God has planned for me, but I have gotten back into my negative thinking,
I know God is giving me all these sparks to light my fire and I feel it, then after a few days I go back into my rut. Yesterday at church, that fire was sparked again and I am going to keep the fire going.
I need to feed my spirit,which is to surround me with people that is supportive, delve more into my Bible studies and just trust more.
For example, God has helped me with my will power in spending money.  I was putting all my happiness into things and not him.  This has been an ongoing battle with me and along with my lack of control of my words.  I am still working on this.
So as I am still a work in progress, even at 48 years of age, I know there are others out there that feel like me.  It is never too late to change your direction in life.  You can be 20 or 80 and God will always use you.
"For everyone has sinned, we all fall short of God's glorious standard. Yet God, in his grace, feely makes us right in his sight.  He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty of our sins." Romans 2:23-24 NLT.

Love to all,
