When Pastor Steve put the challenge out to give something up for Lent that was taking up more time in our lives than God, Facebook was an easy answer for me. What I wasn't expecting was the work that God was going to do in my life during this time. What a fool I am! Wasn't that the point?! I've taken a lot of time to focus on relationships in my life. While I don't understand why things happen, I do understand that it's not necessarily my job to understand but to obey. 1 John 4:19 says "we love because he first loved us". I will live that out every single day. However, I have come to the realization that sometimes you just have to let relationships go and love from afar. Maybe just through prayer. I'm ok with that.
Thank you, Lord, for helping me get the junk outta my trunk.
