Friday Night I stepped out of my comfort zone a bit. I went up to Kennesaw to hang with a buddy. He's a great guy, someone I know from here and there (mostly church) but have never really hung out with. Well he extended an invitation to come up and hang at his place with a bunch of his friends. I figured why not, he's a cool guy and I can always use more friends.
I did something amazing Friday night.
I ran three miles non-stop.
I also did something which in the grand schemes of things is small.
I feel like that cat sometimes. Trying to do one simple task and I get all wrapped up in the strings of distractions, or just overwhelmed with my own stupid silly thoughts.
I do that a lot, have stupid thoughts.
One of my biggest and most stupid thought is "was I supposed to do / say that?" I constantly doubt myself or wrestle with decisions I know I NEED to make. I have gotten a lot better at pushing these doubts out and two things have made this an easier process to grasp and put into practice.
Obedience & Patience
I got a comment on an older post the other day and to me it was an answer from God for a prayer I've had recently. You see I love this blog, I love blogging and I love sharing myself with all of you. The struggle I have though, is knowing when to share and when to just be silent. Sometimes I get so moved to write something and then I struggle to put the words onto paper. Those are the moments where I need to just write what I can, then step away. Other times though, the posts mysteriously just flow from my mind, to my finger tips and find their way onto my blog.
I see the amazing things my words and thoughts have on those who read them. I see it when friends take a post and then talk about it with their small group. I see it when I get comments from total strangers about how much this post meant to them. I see it when a reader is so distraught about their struggles that they can only post an anonymous comment.
