good conversations.....

so i was riding in a car the other day on my way to a larger city than my own. and the car was full of philosophical geniuses apparently. because as we rode alone there were questions asked and there were answers that were very convicting and that truly made me think.

how will i grow this year? not physically but spiritually. how will i grow stronger? how will i expand my knowledge of the Word and of my relationship with my Heavenly Father? because just reading like two chapters a day is not going to cut it. that's not even scraping the surface, let alone anything else. how will the time that i sacrifice to God be made not so much a sacrifice but a longing and a burning desire to want to be with Him and be closer to Him more and more and more everyday.

we've been fed so many good "meals" from the word lately, but are we really taking the time to digest them. to be like a cow and chew our cud til to know exactly what i tastes like both good and bad? i know that i for one am an epic failure at that. like i know what i should be doing but that doesn't stop me from not doing it. it sometimes makes it even more enjoyable to reject. which is giving over to Satan the one thing that we do have control over. our time with God.

anyway. i am thankful for the fellow Christians who are walking on this path with me. i know that the road is narrow and hard. but we will persevere on and the crown is our glory!
