Lord Willing

What a feeble life! What a poor excuse for a life! I am not speaking of myself as an entire person, but limited only to this flesh - this feeble body!

I lack self-control. Romans chapter 7 says, "What I want to do, I do not do, and what I do not want to do, that I do! Who will deliver me from this body of death? Jesus Christ my Lord!"

The road is long and I grow weary.

"Pray that you do not enter into temptation, for the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak."

"Do not grow weary in well doing for in due time you shall reap if you don't give up."

I was reading in the devotional by Oswald Chambers, "My Utmost for His Highest" that we can't really even do anything. I mean, if I lay out a bunch of plans, am I, in and of myself able to accomplish them? No.

However, "God is faithful. He will not allow you to be teampted beyond what you are able to bear, but with it will provide a way of escape so that you may bear up under it."

So with that in mind, I have yet a new plan. I don't want to detail it now. Just let me say that I am hoping to sign in quickly and often to detail how I'm doing. This blog actually is called "a log." A blog log.
