I realized I do that - a lot, actually.
But, I think I learned something today. The first step is getting to acknowledge the truth. I guess that's why in AA, or whatever rehab, they always get you to say you are a drunk, or addicted, or whatever. You gotta know what is, and what isn't. Getting to the truth doesn't mean everything is fixed right after that. It really just started, but it doesn't start until you get to that point first. All the preparation for the journey can ensure your arrival at your destination, but the journey never starts without the first step.
Hmmm....
So you gotta get to the truth first. And then, after that - that's when you start walking.Ahhhhh, I get it now. And the truth will set you free...
Talking with one of the senior high youth I said regarding his entrenched sin, "You let Jesus deal with the sin, you just deal with Jesus."
"I don't get it, what does that mean?"
"I know. Exactly. It's as bad as dealing with a girl, 'cept God is invisible..."
My one-liner thought for the day.
Keeping up to date on what Matt has to say - about a lot of things...
