The Way forward.....

I have many questions in my mind at the moment. Very silly questions as a matter a fact. Why is it that when babies learn to walk, when they stand instinctually they move forward and when they fail to take that next step they fall back. Funny analogy if you picture it in your mind but I think thats what its like in our christian walk. We are like babies in every sense of the word, we stand up excited to take on the new challenge but on trying to take that step to move forward we fall back to our old ways.

But i guess the difference with babies is that they no matter how many times they fall they pick themselves up and try again. Sometimes I wish we all had the resilience of babies, the faith that no matter how many times we fall, our dad God, is looking down to us and beckoning us to Himself. Be it you have tried to put him first, you've wanted your motives for serving and loving God to be genuine and each time you failed. I have a prayer from Psalm 139: 23-24 that I read today and it filled me with a sense of what to ask God when I feel I've failed him again. It reads:

Search me, O God, and know my heart, Try me, and know my thoughts
See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

We are everything in Jesus guys... Lets let his amazing love and grace be what changes us.....

Love, peace and happiness
