Well, I'm taking my cues from Beth Moore, and writing about something that I myself need to work on. Every day, of every week, I spend way too much time searching for my identity and my satisfaction in something that isn't Jesus.
I am so fed up with myself. So tired of feeling lost and alone. There is so much more to life than that. I find myself feeling more and more like I am wasting my life away. And, wasting it on what?...Feeling sorry for myself, dwelling on the past, focusing on the negative...or, even worse,... wishing that I was more like someone else.
Why do we spend our time being jealous of other people's lives?...I think it's probably because we are searching for our identity in the wrong places...Well, I'm done. Call Jon Acuff and his #Quitters and tell them that this is "Day One" of my #30dayofhustle.
I am getting out of this rut, moving away from the place I've been stuck in, and moving towards a stronger identity in Christ. He is enough for me. I don't need to search...I've already been found in Him.
It's been over a year since I last published one of my blogs. So, since it still applies now, I'm gonna go ahead and share the last scripture that I blogged...again. You cannot even fathom the extent of his greatness. He is so absolutely, completely, fantastically enough.
"There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:...a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance,... He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. (Ecclesiastes 3:1, 4, 11 NIV)
