Do not let your heart envy sinners, but be zealous for the LORD all the day;
For surely there is a hereafter, and your hope will not be cut off.
-Proverbs 23:17-18
Happy election, everyone. Bear with the election, everyone. May the best man win. Never mind that this is pretty unlikely, seeing as neither of our well-publicized choices are, in fact the "best man". By far.
I'll be humming this tune for the next week or so. Or month. Or four years. >.<
Yet another example of "How in the world did this person achieve fame?" And more to the point, "Once he achieved fame, how did he manage to keep it?????"
Praise be to God! He forgets our wickedness once we have confessed it!
Heb 8:12; 10:17
Now what I need to do is forget them myself. Forget them just enough to not be discouraged, but not so much that I fall back into them. Therin lies the rub. :\
It's a wonderful thing to be able to say you are stronger today then you have ever been. Today I can say just that and, better yet, actually mean it. There's no point in blogging about the past few monthsat all; I consider them a waste of time. They have basically consisted of low points, selfishness and depravites. For all intents and purposes, they are weeks and weeks that i'll never get back, never be able to redeem.
Could I even go so far as to say that most of my life has been a waste? Possibly. Though I may be wiser because of where I've been, each day I've spent serving my selfish depravities is a day God could've used my one talent I'd so carefully hidden in the dirt.
Waste. Vanity. Lost forever.
Now, on undoubtably the strongest day I have yet experienced in my short life, I am resolved to waste no more time, but Use each day for what it was designed for. Now that it's taken me so long to understand it, I finally know one thing for sure: All that matters right now is today. How will I treat others? What will I do in front of those of the world? How will I represent my God?
May you never waste a day,
May you all be strong in the LORD,
I love you all,
