Not yet Me on Monday

I've let busyness head up things lately...Forsaking the reading of The Word, fellowship, and prayer. So I'm feeling a bit foggy. I notice that when I'm not quite right, not in close communion with God, a few things tend to happen...they will be my Not Me's for this week.

1. I am not easily offended and argumenative.

2. I am not quick to judge motives and intentions (wrongly).

3. I am not persuing "wood" "hay" and "stubble" passions rather than investing in eternal rewards.

4. I did not go searching through my past (via facebook and classmates.com) to find the sinful life I left behind. And, when I found person after person that had graduated college and done exciting things I did not feel even a little jealous.

5. Finally, I'm not hoping for the quick work of the holy spirit to come upon me and cause conviction and repentance so that I can return to peace in the arms of God.

Wow...is that why I get so short sometimes?! Makes sense. I need to follow your example.

Thanks for the live traffic feed! LOL! That was great!

Are you and I in the same season of life? ahh, the joys.

I am thankful I am not the girl I used to be. It's like taking off an enormous hairshirt to revisit that path and remind oneself.

Who on earth would waste their time looking for past classmates (ex-boyfriends) etc.? Not Me! Good to hear your brutal honest comments, hope you feel better, I think I do! ;)

Ahh, I know the busyness gets me down, too. All we mommys get that, I think.

Blessings!
