How many times have I said to myself & other people that I need to read my bible more? (Ill answer that for you. The answer is a lot.) I sit & aspire to be as knowledgeable & deep in my walk & relationship with God as other people but then when push comes to shove my bible sits shut on my bedside table. I make excuses for myself which I know are just excuses & not worthy & what ends up happening y'all? Well, Ill tell you...I end up not reading verses like this one...
"Complain if you must, but don't lash out. Keep your mouth shut & let your heart do the talking. Build your case before God & wait for His verdict." ~Psalm 4:4-5
...then, plopped into a situation where I could really use that verse in true life, I have no knowledge of it, dont apply it, thus, fail in my personal goal of being a worthy & successful servant for the Lord.
So what have I learned?
*I need to be more motivated & diligent in my desire to get closer to God
*No excuses! Everyone is busy & life is only going to get busier.
*I need to start making sacrifices for what I know is better for my life for God (wake up earlier for prayer time)
*Be myself. God made me that way for a reason.
