CookieMac is back! Pt.2

These past months since school started have been pretty crazy to be honest. If you know me well you will probably know what caused the hussle and bussle. I've had so much to be thankful for with many witnessing opportunities at school and so many opportunities to grow in the Lord... But oh selfish me didn't take the time to count her blessings. Thus i wasn't talking to the Lord much, at all on that matter.

School is gradually getting more difficult to deal with... not giving into worldly lusts like all the music out there... its so in your face and inside i'm screaming for someone to save me from it. Yeah, you could say i was coasting. I have been fooled into that thinking because I'm serving the Lord through the Narrow Road Ministries at school and church i have the ability to hide behind a "good" curtain and make it look like i'm doing it with all my heart and only for the Lord.

The truth is, i've been abusing that opportunity to make myself look good... to make myself look like i actually have an important job to do for the Lord. I know that it is important, but i was only doing it for myself. Like Paul said, "I do the things I don't want to do and don't do the things I want to do." So, i have to bring discipline back into my life again, make myself accountable to my christian friends, and give myself the desire to talk about it when i'm going through hard times.

So yeah, i'm planting my feet back on the road again. I just bought a new devotional book and its been a really blessing. It starts out with a testimony about a young man my age and it totally relates with what my life has been in the last couple years. Its amazing how God uses people just like us to open our eyes to reality.

So, i'll leave you with this verse, my favorite one =] ..

"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."

-Romans 8:28

Prayers and blessings,
CookieMac <3
