Sometimes We Aren't Always Feeling Our Best

If you are real with yourself and others, you know that walking any walk with a Higher Power is not going to be easy. In my life I choose the God of the Bible -- the one who can only be reached through acceptance of his Son Jesus Christ.

Lately, there has been a shedding away of myself like an animal shedding its coat. So many things within me and around me are being stripped away slowly but surely. You think you are okay when you have stopped partying, sleeping around, cussing or doing the obvious things that any minister would be quick to tell you to stop doing. However, those things don't even scrape the surface of what is ahead! There are the songs you listen to, the company you keep, the things you watch on television, the Internet sites you visit, and the collectibles you have been holding on to since you were old enough to read that God calls into question.

When walking with God no stone is left unturned -- no stone! I am not comfortable where I stand with God as I write and neither should you! We are works in progress which means we will never come to a place where we can say, "I have mastered everything and therefore I am righteous!" Just when you start thinking that way, God allows the enemy to come and whisper a few things in your ear while giving you tests. Some of these trials you will pass while others you won't. Whenever you are in the presence of another human being you are automatically being tested. Even though you may not say one offensive word, at some point, you will think something offensive. That's life, my friend!  Stay blessed!
