Call me Augustine

So I have a confession...

Lately I've been really trying to seek out what God's will is for my life. What does God have for me? What is He calling me to? How do I follow Him? Where? In what?

So all of these things are real lofty goals and all, yeah? Like it's good that I'm wondering about them and seeking out the answers to those questions and all, right?

Uh, 'xcept here's the thing. I'm so busy seeking out what God has for me, 'cause I believe it's good, that I forget to seek out God. Pretty selfish, huh. I want what God has for me. But do I want God? Am I spending as much time thinking about Him as I am about what He has for me? Lately, I haven't been.

So that's my confession. Seems simple. Didn't even occur to me until a few hours ago.

So today I choose to not worry about what He has planned for me. Today I choose to try to stop being so selfish in always asking God for His blessing and will in my life to be done. Today I simply choose Jesus. The Man. The Person. The God. Jesus. How about I start trying to get to know Him first, eh?
