What if God really was my strenth? What if He was the sole thing I pulled my drive from, the very thing that I got my determination from? What would that even look like?
We were in an extended time of worship a few mornings ago just to a random mix off of a computer (yea God can move through that too!), and my heart attitude that came out of it was I needed God to be my drive, my passion for life. See whenever I have stuff come against me, I can almost always dig down deep and find enough determination to push through whatever I need to get through. It has worked for me in the past, and probably could work in the future. But I’m becoming less and less certain that it is the way that is the most healthy. I need God to be my life source, that’s the way He intended it right?
Not even sure I know how to do that………

This IS good. It is pure honesty, and that is beautiful. It takes true strength and honor just to admit those things, because I think it is a struggle we all deal with. I’m reminded of what Donne Black said along the lines of “don’t wait until everything you rely on is taken away to make HIM your everything.” I wish I could tell you how to do that, but I don’t think I’ve even come near to mastering it. Maybe first you have to be okay with the fact that you really are weak, and you really can’t do it, and you really do need HIM to lead. I don’t know. But I do know that He is faithful, so I’m sure if you’re praying towards it, it will happen, right? You’ve begun a wonderful journey!! Keep it up brother!
