Life Reminders

In the last year or two I've spent a lot of mental time trying to figure out what living my life fully for God is supposed to look like. I've been everywhere from feeling convicted about my laziness to throwing myself into ministries that over-extended me.

Some things I've learned or been reminded of in the last year or so:
I didn't know my limits...or I wasn't willing to accept what my limits were.

If I do take a break from running myself into the ground I am a very lazy person.

I pray a lot more when I'm nearing my breaking point.

I fail about as often as I succeed...and that's probably OK because my ways aren't always His ways.

Satan doesn't want me to succeed...and whenever something reminds me of that it makes me a little bit happy because I know that I've got to be on the right path.

I'm not always driven by the right motives...but I'm learning how to change that.

I'm capable of way more than I ever thought I was.

I'm happiest when I'm serving others.


I'm definitely still learning and I'm sure I always will be. However, I can look back at where I was a year or two ago and look at where I am now and I can see where God has brought me and the work that He has done...and that is what it's really about. I'm looking forward to seeing what He has in store for me this coming year!
