I’ve realized that sometimes in life its not about what you want, in fact a LOT of times its definitely not about what you want or who you want to be. There are those times when you simply hit a rut, forcing you to regress and take a step back in order to see clearly what is before you.

Look Inward

Sometimes that look inward reveals some things about ourselves we seldom like to admit, but the truth of it is that we need that long look in the mirror, we need that blank stare within sometimes in order to provoke change.

Let me be the first to admit, old memories seldom fade and bad habits die hard but in an effort to make clean the spirit we must master that which is within is. I’ve challenged myself today to make know the fruits of the spirit and make less the whims of the flesh. It will be an uphill battle for much like the apostle Paul who recognized his frailty of self  he said;

“I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me”.——-Romans 7:15-17

Why not fight that good fight today, the price of victory is steep but its rewards are plentiful.
