It’s Friday. Friday is usually a day to ease into a slower pace for the weekend.
Today I am putting a stake in the sand and declaring:
NO MORE EXCUSES!
For longer than I like to admit I have succumbed to the Resistance. Steven Pressfield writes about it in The War of Art, and Do The Work.Check his work out here
I have accepted the lies of ‘you have nothing to offer’, ‘why bother’, and ‘not good enough’ for too long.
I choose this day to place that stake in the ground, to take back the territory that has been given me and begin again. In earnest.
Trusting Who has made me and discovering what He’s made me for is my focus.
A New Ending.
What have you been believing that is keeping you from living a purposeful, intentional Christ-centered life? Leave a comment so I may join you in the battle through prayer.
here here, dear friend! i hear you and want to believe as well: that I have something to offer, that I need to bother, and that I was good enough for Jesus to die, so… thanks for your prayers and alongsidedness. ALSO, i just jogged walked around the neighborhood two times (new efforts to shed the flesh – not in the spiritual sense) cheers!
Read another great book The War of Art by S. Pressfield; it will show up in my blog posts. Talks about the Resistance…great name for opposition to doing the work. Keeping up the prayer; know that God is glorified when we feebly turn our gaze toward Him! Glad to hear you’re out in the neighborhood; I hit the gym at our temp housing apartment. New efforts are good!
