"1Now we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. 2Meanwhile we groan, longing to be clothed with our heavenly dwelling.." 2nd Cor 5:1-2
I have been thinking a lot about sacrifice. In the past, I have forced myself to give up things. Spiritual discipline or so it would seem. I was earnest in my desire to be stronger, to seek Him greatly. Looking back, I did improve.
However, my small victories in holiness are dwarfed in comparison to the amount of sin in my life. I guess as one learns to understand God more, you realize how small, insignificant, and SINFUL you really are. So I try again, to reduce the sin in my life.... live my life as He would want me to.
It doesn't feel like enough. It is like I am running on 70% capacity. Where is the desire? Where is the HUNGER for you, Lord?
