Sunday, February 24, 2008

This is my day!  I will remember February 24, 2008 not just as another sunday,  but as the day I stopped being so luke warm with my faith.  As much as I have tried to convince myself that I was living whole heartedly for God, I honestly wasn't giving my 100%.  Not just me individually, but my in my marriage as well.  God has called me to be a leader.  A leader in my walk with Him and a leader in my marriage and I have failed at both.  I'm sick of sitting in the background and letting the devil attack me while I think that no one sees.   I have come to the end of my rope and refuse to roll over and die.  Giving up seems like the easier route, but I am determined to be greater.  I have fallen and while many people are condemning me and I am even condemning myself, God is not.  I have lots of obstacles ahead and I am scared, but I cannot live in fear.  "The absence of fear is the renewal of faith".  I have faith!  I will no longer be a follower, but a leader.  It starts in my home.  I will no longer be my wife's helpmate, but will stand in front of her and take on the world.  I will be a faithful leader to my wife in every area.  I will lead in our spirituality, in our faith, in our love, in our intimacy, in our communication, in our finances, and in our families lives to come.
