CLARIFICATION?????

Failure plagues my thought process more than I would like. The humanity in me surges to attempt conquering my transformed spirit. Yes, I realize the desire to be perfect slips through my mind easily as the temptations arise before me on every side. My visual acuity spiritually seems to have weakened or lessened with factors of dramatic/traumatic events. I need to purpose that my age should not have any effect on the Divine call. 

The missing element in may life recently has been the Word of God for personal consumption. Oh, I have heard it spoken and followed along quoting the familiar from memory. But my personal adaption and reception was brief to say the least. I have purposefully purchased a new Bible with a renewed vigor to read it through and highlight portions that speak to me.

The skill of expressing myself in written format has also declined, but my desire is to have it return with spiritual impact for self and others. The blog I started was inspired by hurtful events that happened to me with my placement of blame on others. I allowed the root of bitterness to express itself and grow, trying to bring self-justification. I believe it served as a cry out to God, however, I probably didn’t really listen for His guidance to move past the obstacles thrown my way. There was so much negativity as an underlying current of those postings. I will allow them to remain posted just to serve as a reminder of the path that one should not walk down. I believe therein lies many expressions of truth that may hurt but ultimately set the captive soul free. Perhaps this would be a disclaimer of sorts.

This does not mean there will always be wrongs used as fuel for conversation. In fact my intention is that I focus on those positive things that build up rather than tear down. We learn from the bad as well as the good.

There are so many things (idols) that compete for our time. They could be listed here but you know what they are. Our perspective must be reverted back to our God-given call out of darkness (I Peter 2;9). The light of the Gospel of Jesus Christ must be declared.
