Having my cousin back from the States for these past 2 weeks have been a blessing although I would have liked to spend more time with her. Spending time with family, is a blessing I know I sometimes take for granted. I admit, even my parents I know I disappoint at times. Little things have opened my eyes, issues like giving in, tolerance and sacrifice make me realize how selfish and wicked our hearts can be, that if it wasn't for the cross, we would all be hopeless, dying creatures. And yet we live with reason, we strife with purpose, we press on because of that hope. That we were meant for more. That in the end, its not about the perfect job or finding the right guy, it's about being complete in Him. And that is a lesson to learn.
Came across this highlighted phrase from A.W. Tozer's The Pursuit of God :
'It will require a determined heart and more than a little courage to wrench ourselves loose from the grip of our times and return to Biblical ways'
Oh to be a lady of diligence, conviction, virtue, patience, devotion, contentment and everything else..
