Title:
I realized, and I'm not sure what hit me on the head to see this, but I realized I was doing things kinda out of order. Being the Christian that I am, I followed the guidelines of be obedient to God and all will go well. I was essentially obeying God so I can have what I want. My outlook was totally off.
Moving Right Along:
I was watching a skit by the "Skit Guys", a Christian skit group. They're awesome, check them out Skit Guys. And I started understanding God's Love. It's there for a reason, He's trying to protect us from ourselves. What was He protecting me from? My skewed focus. I shouldn't have been following God just so I can get what I want on earth. After all, isn't earth temporary? I should be following God, because of my love for Him, because He sent His son to die for me. And if I love Him and do the work that He put me on the earth to do, then He would also help me reach my earthly goals.
I'm not gonna lie, I probably didn't prove myself worthy of any of my goals the other day when I was a drunken mess. So, I'm cutting out the alcohol until I can drink like I have some sense. But anyway, that's something to think about another day.
Success: I don't think I'd truly be successful if I didn't have God on my side.
Mark 8: 26- "What good is it for a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul?"
Well, it's no good. No good at all. When I do reach the pinnacle of my success, I want to turn around while accepting my Emmy and see Jesus doing the jerk, because I'm a child of His and I'm doing it BIG!
