Starting Fresh

This past month, I've been dealing with some heart issues. Life hasn't been hard; in fact it's been almost too easy. But I've gotten to the point where my own biggest obstacle is myself. I struggle with temptation of all kinds - to be lazy, to pig out, to just deny all of my responsibilities - and I get so annoyed with myself that I'm ashamed of how stagnant my life is. But, if there's one thing I learned this summer serving God, it's that all things are possible in Him. So here's my plan - to reclaim my life right now, dedicate it to God once more, and live fully in Him, knowing He would never lead me astray. I found a good motto on Pinterest and I've been repeating it to myself recently - "Comfort is the enemy of achievement." And when I remind myself of that, I hope it will slowly help me form good habits. At present I have no good habits - I've counted; not a single one. Sure I do good things occasionally, and at moments I make myself proud. But no behaviors of mine that are positive are regular at all, and I hate that. I also know that it doesn't HAVE to be that way. Change is difficult, but not impossible - especially when God is on your side.
