Wholly Committed

Wholly Committed:

Good morning ladies!  I am trying this blog thing again and hopefully I do it right!  God has really convicted me about being wholly committed to Him.  I have really been thinking about what that actually means.  It means that everything I say, do, watch, think about etc... should be with a heart like Jesus.  I have been known to just blurt out the first thing that comes to mind without thinking about how its going to effect the person I'm saying it to.  I am learning to take a deep breath (I call it my Jesus breath) and think about if what I am about to say will lift someone up or tear them down.  I'm not saying I do this every time, but the more I do it, the more peace I have and the people around me have....ie..my family!!  I also have been convicted on the amount of TV I watch and being more selective on what I watch.  This is a struggle for me, because I admit that I like to watch TV a lot.  Please pray for me!  Have an awesome day! 

Love, Christy

I love the Serenity Prayer mentioned in the 1st chapter of Stressed-Lessed Living!  I have been trying to live by that but it takes committment and resolve to do it.  My favorite version of the Serenity Prayer is:  "God grand me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the only person I can, and the wisdom to know that person is me!"
