"Change occurs when the pain of same is greater than the pain of change..."
God I've come to you before in my life begging you for change in my heart and my soul. Real everlasting change that transforms me into the man I know you made me to be. God I feel like I'm wasting everything you've blessed me with. I know in my life I can point to short spurts where change did occur, but for some reason the pain of same fades and I fall back into my old routine. I'm frustrated beyond belief. Things that plagued me as a 17 year high school student still plague me as a 27 year old husband. God I want discipline so badly. I want to do things when they need to be done. If I start a book I want to finish it, if I wake up early to spend time with you I want to do it consistently and not in spurts. Lord I am SO tired of being like this. I need you to infuse my heart with the type of life bringing change that you promise. I want to ask you for it daily until I can't imagine a life without it. I want to FEEL you changing me into a man that more closely resembles you. I want to love as you loved, work as you worked, and lead and you led. I want to be done with the status quo, to experience the one thing I've always known existed but never been a part of. Lord please help me to figure out how I can turn this lifestyle into my own. place ideas into my head on how I can do this practically Lord. Make Consistency as much a part of my life as sports, work, and news. Lord help this to be my daily prayer Lord, that everyday I am alive the percentage of me that belongs to you becomes greater and the parts of me I hold on to become less...
John 3:30: "He must become greater; I must become less."
