Dear God,
How simple it is to fall into old routines. Lord you have been molding me, showing me things about myself I never realized. Revealing the more dark and hidden corners of my life. Yet once I felt like I had a "break through" I decided that was it. The moment I lowered my guard thinking myself now "divinely enlightened" I slowly slipped into the old habits that caused me so much grief in the first place. I realized that if I want to grow closer in the Lord, to obtain a servants heart it will need daily renewal, daily vigilance.
I have also found a new enemy, it is boredom or to some idleness. Yet it has been disguising itself. After I realize how thankful I should be for this time on earth I began to wonder if I have been using it wisely. I then realized that a majority of my time has been used for television shows and video games. I asked myself why waste such time? Neither of these activities are bad yet to me they have become vices as I realize what a large portion of my life they fill. Without them I would be "bored". I did not know what I could do to replace them. As I plan to remove or limit such activities I feel like an ex-smoker trying to fill a craving. Lord guide my path and lead my heart so I may please you.
From,
Your Humbled Servant
