Haven't posted here in awhile. The whole "habit" thing obviously didn't work out, but thankfully, my walk with God has been improving as of late. I just need to spend more time in prayer and the Bible.
Today's devotion was titled "Hearts and Banjos," and to sum up, it talked about how we need to ask God to repair and restore our hearts. Over time, things of the earth have a way of working themselves into our souls. Things such as obsession over relationships, entertaining but crude videos and comics, and an overabundance of video games have been (and to some extent, still are) problems in my own life and are good examples. These things aren't necessarily sinful, but they do get in the way of a life completely devoted to God. I find that prayer and constant realignment with God's will helps here.
It's so amazing to know that God is always there, straightening out the messes that we are. I picture us as badly tangled fishing line. It makes more sense to throw us out and start over, but God's love is so great for us that He sits there for a lifetime and makes us usable for His purposes. That's pretty awesome.
