So I have slacked off big time in the last few days. I really haven\’t been in the word or reading my other two buddy\’s blogs and I haven\’t been doing my devotions or even in the slightest way thinking about God in a way that makes me wanna change. This sucks! I need someone in my life that can keep me on the narrow path. I guess what pisses me off the most is that my life style hasn\’t really changed much since I have been in nebraska, as a matter of fact it really hasn\’t changed much at all since I left New York. It ticks me off the most because even after a sweet four bros trip and some great encouragement from Godly fallen men in my same place I still made no effort to change.
Now the scary part along with making no changes I kinda mislead myself into thinking that I was doing alright. When in actuality I wasn\’t doing well at all! I looked at my bank statement the other day and it was awful! Holy crap was it awful. I spent money on stupid shit and I could be saving it for way more important things such as a ring. I am a complete idiot when it comes to money.
So today I want to make that change, starting now, no more stupid shit! No more worldly nonsense that I don\’t need. I want to use my money for what will further Gods kingdom and for what I need. Not what I want.
I read Act 1 and 2 today and realize that I haven\’t read in a while and that my knowledge of the bible, blows! I don\’t know my own saviors words to me, i know lines from the office better than I know Gods word and that\’s some scary stuff! God please help me to get off this plateau of just getting by and in to bigger and better things. Use me!
