I was blessed to sit in on some great teaching this beautiful Sunday morning. I really appreciate Rob Green's lesson from Judges 1-2. I can certainly identify (unfortunately) with the people of Israel who continually pursue the wrong thing (i.e. not God). Then when their situation gets tough, they offer Him lip service but do not truly repent....
For those of you who know me, I have on/off again struggles with making video games my idol of choice. Currently I am in the on again state of that battle. Several weeks before seminary started, I had more free time and picked up a free online game. Of course, I got really into said game and it became my definition of fun/relaxation. Anyways, I continue to battle with putting this idol behind me and finding my fulfillment in the Lord.
I am so grateful for the continued biblical teaching that I'm exposed to at Faith, as well as in the studies I'm involved in for Seminary. Now I just need to apply them. God is doing His part, but I am being fainthearted in my part. Your prayers are appreciated! (And I will be submitting all of this to the Lord myself too! I don't expect it to resolve itself. I know I have to be actively putting it off and replacing it with delight in the Lord and my wonderful wife!)
P.S. I love you, Micaela!
