Time for a lil' vulnerability...

It was a humbling day. I am a sinner. God's grace is still good. especially because....
-I am prideful & quick to anger over the smallest situations
-I still struggle the idols such as Facebook (as silly as it sounds), comfort, and self-image
-One of my biggest idols? Wanting a boyfriend even though I know I am nowhere near ready for one
-I struggle with giving myself fully in my homework assignments and not "cutting corners" by cheating
-I care about my own reputation over the glory of God in my life
-I have a poor self-image
-I am lazy and would prefer sleeping over spending extra time reading the Word and praying for those who really need it
-I find myself wanting to impress people over God in sometimes church-oriented activities

This post was difficult to write, but liberating as well because
God says, "I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion." It does not, therefore, depend on man's desire or effort, but on God's mercy." Romans 9:14

Praise Jesus.
