My Lack Of Discipline

Yesterday I didn’t write. Whenever these lists start to feel mechanical, I stop. They offer a quiet time to commune with my Creator so when I get to the point that I feel as if I’m simply going through the motions, I’ll stop. I’d hate to think I’m taking some sort of half measures with my Creator. I’m not sure if it’s a lack of discipline or self awareness.

When I’m true to myself, I really know when I’m lazy. When desire and action do not mingle. I’ve done a decent job of making improvements over the years. It’s an uphill battle and for the most part, I’m still moving uphill and it’s still challenging. I’m totally ok with a challenge, it’s part of my journey. I’ll keep walking and improving, day by day, doing what’s apparent, ignoring my feelings, and moving towards His reason for my creation

Today, Thursday, August 18, 2022, I am grateful that:

Even with my list being short today, it didn’t feel mechanical. An earnest attempt to sit quietly and connect with Him is all I can really ask. Sure, much much more has been granted, but the action has to be taken first.

John researched some info about the unit I’m renting and gave me the info. When I asked him what made him do it, he said he knew I’d attempted to get the info and couldn’t and decided to help. I’m grateful for his efforts.

Cedric and I got a chance to hang out for a few hours last night. We discussed a few things and I was able to stop looking at the same four walls. Plus, my budget is low, so cheap and enjoyable camaraderie is most appreciated.

Name three things you do that displays your disciple.

How do you know when you’re being lazy?

What’s one thing you’ve thought about doing, but haven’t done so yet?

What could you do to make progress on that one thing?

Be Great. Be Grateful!!!
