If I Could Just Overcome Me
I have thought about this a lot through out my life, and how much I have allowed myself to get in the way of what I want. Whenever things go wrong in our adult lives, the first place we need to look is in the mirror. But don’t gaze to long though. We need to do for ourselves what we need to for other when they trespass against us. We need to forgive ourselves, set ourselves free ,and get on with life. No matter what has been said or done, we as people never lose our value. If we can come to understand that as we move along through life, we are more likely to make fewer mistakes and if we do make a mistake it will allow us to better recognize, repent, and recover. I remember once when my oldest son was just in the first grade and he had gotten in trouble at school. I asked him what made him do such a thing, and he told me the devil made him do it. I tried to keep a straight face because I needed to discipline him, but he was already mastering the art of putting the blame on someone else just like all the rest of us have. The truth is, the devil might show you the water well, but he has never primed the pump and made us drink from it. Thats right, we need to recognize, repent, and recover. This is the first step in getting ourselves out of the way we desire to go.
