Well, I'm hoping this actually works...I've been setting up the page and designing it but haven't actually blogged anything!
So, today is Sunday, the first day of the week, the Lord's day. I thought today would be a great day to start this adventure. I'm hoping thru this endeaver, God might speak to me and help me make sense of my crazy world. A world that revolves around "3 cats and a Husband!"
At church today, Matt preached on Habakkuk 2:4...which led us to other passages, of course. Habakkuk, tho, spoke of 'the proud' and 'the righteous'. The proud get puffed up with their own righteousness, whereas the righteous are puffed up by Jesus, they know their only righteousness is in Jesus, not by their own efforts.
As I search my heart, pride in my righteousness isn't really an issue for me...I totally know that I am 'unrighteous' on my own, only thru the blood of Jesus am I able to have a right standing with God.
However, this is where I fall short...I know people who get puffed up about EVERYTHING in their lives...from what they drive to 'what they do for the Lord'. That's where I fall...I tend to see them being fake about their walk and want to smack them. lol That's when I tend to dismiss them as 'fakers'. I know God doesn't dismiss them, but I think that God also doesn't expect us to accept their behavior either.
Gee I didn't mean for my first blog to be so 'churchy' but that was what was on my mind today, so I blogged it! Whenever I actually blog again, I hope to share bits of my life, etc...like how much I love my 3 cats and husband! :)
