Thinking About My Purpose

Point to Ponder: There is always a way out.

Verse to Remember: “God is faithful. He will keep the temptation from becoming so strong that you can’t stand up against it. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you will not give in to it.”  1 Corinthians 10:13

Question to Consider: Who could I ask to be a spiritual partner to help me defeat a persistent temptation by praying for me?

Answer: It has always been difficult for me to express my vulnerabilities to others. Sure I can write a blog and post my thoughts online, but isn’t it easy to hide behind a keyboard? I personally can’t remember the last time I shared face-to-face with someone my darkest secrets, biggest fears and worst temptations. While I know the conversation won’t be an easy one, I am overcome with joy knowing that this weight will soon be lifted off of my shoulders. Unfortunately there is no easy time to start unloading these struggles so I guess now is as good as ever. I just have to remember that I do NOT have to fight this battle alone!
