carol punishment: day 2

Hello.

Isaiah Chap 2:

8 Their land is full of idols;
they bow down to the work of their hands,
to what their fingers have made.

22 Stop trusting in man,
who has but a breath in his nostrils.
Of what account is he?


Sometimes it is funny to me how I can get rebuked directly from the word of God lol...the past few weeks, like I have mentioned in previous posts, I have been struggling a lot with idolizing people. When something bad happens to me, I often seek advice or counsel or comfort from people FIRST before going to God... and sometimes it feels like theres a void in my heart that I try to fill with people, but in my head I know that It can only be filled completely by God. This is a major heart issue that I want to work through this summer...

God has also been showing me lately about the fickleness of my own heart. It seems like one day I will declare that I am want to be 100% for God but then just a few hours later, I will find myself being selfish in terms of my actions and thoughts throughout the day. But i am thankful because as my spiritual mentor always reminds me, his grace and mercies are new every day!

PS- I will post a nice long blog about the focus impact retreat soon...it was really good / lifechanging in ways! :)
