it's been a while...
today i realized that it's been forever since i've updated this thing, so here's some stuff i've been thinking about lately...
i've been thinking a lot about motivation lately and i ran across this quote from some very smart guy, he says "we will never be enough of a motivation to keep ourselves from sinning". this is a profound little sentance. i think too often we are far to self-consumed and our world needs to be widened. i find myself guilty of putting too much emphasis on my personal stuggle rather than the point that God is the reason i want to change my life. the closer i grow to the heart of God the further i grow from my old self.

give me some feedback... can we ever keep ourselves from sinning or do we even really desire to? lately i find my only motivation for not sinning is because God's standard expects it. i am not enough motivation to keep myself from fulfilling the wrong desires of my heart but my God is... it is to him that we need to be living our lives! think on it...
