Full Circle

It's funny how quickly I can look at things in my life that "I have accomplished" and get all ego-inflated. This leads to taking what I have for granted and eventually focusing only on what I don't have. I forget all that I went through to get where I am.

The truth of the matter is that it has been a cooperative effort. I just do the next thing in front of me and God takes care of the outcome. Which by the way has been phenominal each time I have entrusted it to Him.

But how easily I forget and become self righteous. Demanding more and searching for answers as to why He's no longer listening to me... Oh, He's listening. I'm just no longer cooperating. Meaning, I'm not doing the next thing anymore. I'm whining about all I have done and not wanting to do anymore...but still wanting Him to give me what I want. I even say please...Ya, please just drop it in my lap.

It doesn't work that way. So the answer is to stop thinking and talking, and start doing again.
