discipline

it's so easy to lack discipline.

sometimes i try really really really hard to keep at things. and inevitably i slip up.

then it's an arduous task trying to get back on track.

and yet at the back of my mind... or should i say tucked away in a lil corner of my heart, i know that when i start my day right, and ask God to teach me how to lead my life, things ALWAYS get better.

get better may not translate into problem/issue disappearing into thin air, but the way i look at it, makes it that way.

today my pastor shared abt how we need to shut the doors to paths we've trodden on in bad habits/ungodly ways and start a new path...

i hope i'll do my bit and turn to God everyday, every hour, every minute if necessary... to rely on God fully is quite a difficult thing to do. always like to do things on my own strength. and yet once my perspective shifts and i see God as the centre, i've always got renewed strength and vigour to carry on.

so if u're like me. stuck in a path you know u shouldn't be taking. u CAN go back, block it off. and start a new path. this time start the path right with God as your guiding factor. =) Spend time with Him daily, talk to Him often and read what He has to say. I realise when i fail to build my relationship with Him, i find it hard to know what is right in His eyes cos i dun know what's in His eyes. the world has full of temptations. But the Bible says that God promises us that He will not let us be tempted beyond what we can bear.

God and discipline. that's what i need. in all aspects of my life right now.

side-note: yes my hdb first appt's over! =) appealing for something at the moment. pls pray that things will go smoothly. it's less than 8 months to my wedding which will make the start of a life-time commitment! =) =) =)
