Getting on and doing it

i might not be posting for a while after this
I spend too much time doing things which maybe God hasn't called me to do instead of addressing the issues in my life that really need to be dealt with
My lazy attitude being of prime concern
Some things are easy for me to do. But when it comes to those nitty gritty things that I don't care about deep down but that God calls me to do, I'm a complete shambles.

School at the moment is really important. But I've been disobeying God far too long in not giving 100% effort to it. I've made very excuse under the sun, but at the end of the day...
disobediance is disobediance.

I'm in no position to teach anybody anything at the moment. Sin is sin. And it is always wrong. I'm no less guilty than anyone else no matter what their failure. I'm no higher than anyone else.
But i've been outright wrong., and need to get a lot of things sorted before I even think about ministry at the moment.

So I'm gone for a while
and I'll keep quiet

Thanks for everyone who's helped and encouraged me recently.
Thanks to God for helping get my attiude a bit straighter
I just need to get on and obey God

I'll be praying for you, Shasa! Will miss you :(

Shasa, just remember He uses all of us, though we are sinners. Trust his forgiveness--it sounds like you've confessed your sins, but haven't forgiven yourself. I've done this before myself--but it shouldn't keep you from serving him at all. So don't withdraw too far--He'll provide you with balance and opportunities to serve, all at the same time; and "ministry" can mean many things!

One more thing--you sound a lot like me when I was younger. I'll bet we have a lot in common. And I still struggle with some of the same things you do (and each time God works on me with them, He takes me deeper). So hang in there--and check out my response to your comments on my Friday blog! Love you--Jeff
