It's funny how when we reach the end of each year, we think to ourselves that it was the best year of memories and growth in our entire lives, only to think the same thing the next year.
With the last days of 2010 on count down, I've had quite a bit of time to reflect on this past year. With the usual ups and downs of the typical year, and the memories held to the year twenty-ten, I'm thankful for where God has taken me. Even though I can't say for certain that I've reached my life's lowest this past year, I can definitely see the the redemption by God's grace and mercy in my life.
I was reading in my devotionals today, in the book of Galatians chapter 5:
"walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh...but the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control"
I came to the realization of how poorly I've been walking "by the Spirit" and how easily I fall into the sins of pride.
I asked the Lord to challenge me this break, and up until now, it's seemed like a walk in the park. But now... I'm definitely being challenged, I want to do the right thing the right way, but it's just too unclear.
Sorry... I know this post has been all over the place. But please pray for me!
