Decisions

I’m 20 something.

I’m done with college. I know where I want to go in my career.I feel like I’m grown but I realize that I haven’t been making wise decisions lately. Somehow I’ve gotten off track when I know I should have moved on from certain things. I’m too old to be making the same mistakes and expecting a different result.

I know what I should be doing, I’m scared though. I’m afraid I can’t break these bad habits that have taken years to take root.

The pleasure of sin lasts for maybe an hour or so. The condemnation last so much longer because my hear won’t allow me to stay in sin for long.

The question is: Am I willing to give up what feels good RIGHT NOW, to make room for something better in the long run? It’s difficult to do, when you’re not sure something better will eventually come along.

That’s where faith comes into place.

I know I have a lot of misguided attitudes about things based on my past experiences with people- it’s my burden to bear. But since I know right from wrong, I have to stand up for what is right, believe that doing the right thing will bring peace and happiness to my life, and stop compromising what I know in my heart I deserve.

I’ll get back to ya…
