I am selfish. In every way. With every thing

10 11 2008

Lately I have just been straight up convicted of the fact that I am incredibly selfish!  I mean I started to think about it, and I could not think of one area in which I was not selfish.  I thank God for allowing the Holy Spirit to show me this.  I believe that it could be the biggest brick wall between me and God in my relationship with Him.  For instance, on a daily basis, I could read the word, or I could press the snooze button.  I could talk to random class mates I see in the hall, or I could open my phone and look at it; like I get a text every time I walk past someone!!! YEAH RIGHT!  The thing that convicts me the most, however, is the fact that God has granted me a huge opportunity to reach out to all of my teammates, and although I am building awesome relationships with the guys, I know that I could do sooooo much more…but only when I give up the life I want.

As far as being a leader, I have not chosen to be a leader.  What am I scared of?  Am I afraid that Jesus, God, the Holy Spirit, the Triune God are not with me always?  This is a real battle in my life!  It is rockin’ my world.  And I love every minute of it.  I never want to be comfortable in my faith…but always challenged and desiring to grow deeper.  I want to battle for my faith every day.
