Tonight I write with an unsettled heart, a frustrated heart. I've been here before. Many times. Apathy is hanging over my head, little motivation, too much on my to-do list, and a mind unable to allow me to process it all with any sanity. I guess I don't know where to start. Maybe that's my problem, I am looking for the place to start when I should just still myself upon my God and Father.
That can't be the answer can it? So easy, yet so difficult for this prideful, sin-driven flesh of mine. I just read Psalm 46 yesterday. "Cease striving, and know that I am God." Man, I'm dense! But that is why there is grace eh?
Perspective is so much of the Christian life. How we view things changes everything. I think of the popular proverb, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight." Leaning not on your own understanding, looking not through your own scratched and blurry lenses. Acknowledge Him. Recognizing who He is and what He promises to His children. Worship Him! Then your path will be straight. Why? Because your gaze is fixed once again on the only One who matters. Jesus Christ.
