Tuesday

It is a new day and in this new day are choices to make. It is about trusting in God despite the hard times, despite the things that we want to blame on Him. He is the way and the only way to true freedom, but we have to be willing to take the hard steps. It is easier to fall then it is to take the stand, to do what is right. Isn't it time to take the stand? It may be hard, but what the out come will be no one knows, but take a stand with me today to do the right thing. Start living today not for what you want, but what God wants in us.

This morning I heard a song on the way into work and I think it is so true.

The Motions by Matthew West

This might hurt, it's not safe
But I know that I've gotta make a change
I don't care if I break
At least I'll be feeling something

‘Cause just okay is not enough
Help me fight through the nothingness of life

I don't wanna go through the motions
I don't wanna go one more day
Without Your all consuming passion inside of me

I don't wanna spend my whole life asking
What if I had given everything
Instead of going through the motions?

No regrets, not this time
I'm gonna let my heart defeat my mind
Let Your love make me whole
I think I'm finally feeling something

‘Cause just okay is not enough
Help me fight through the nothingness of this life

‘Cause I don't wanna go through the motions
I don't wanna go one more day
Without your all consuming passion inside of me

I don't wanna spend my whole life asking
What if I had given everything
Instead of going through the motions?

Take me all the way
(Take me all the way)
Take me all the way
(‘Cause I don't wanna go through the motions)

Take me all the way
(Lord, I'm finally feeling something real)
Take me all the way

I don't wanna go through the motions
I don't wanna go one more day
Without Your all consuming passion inside of me

I don't wanna spend my whole life asking
What if I had given everything
Instead of going through the motions?

I don't wanna go through the motions
I don't wanna go one more day
Without Your all consuming passion inside of me

I don't wanna spend my whole life asking
What if I had given everything
Instead of going through the motions?
Take me all the way
(Take me all the way)
Take me all the way
(I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go)

Take me all the way
(Through the motions)
Take me all the way

I don't wanna go through the motions

Is it time for us to live our lives for the truth, instead of living for the lies that we have built up for so long? Isn't it time to be free from the evil and welcome God into our lives all the way. Not just half way, but all the way.

Self help books can help, but I have found that I can read them until I am blue in the face. If I do not take a choice to make the change they are for not. Just as the bible can be read. If you do not make the choice to change it is for nothing. 

Time for change and it starts today.
