12/01/2017 Yes, indeed I want to Live

So, here I am again... in trouble.

The Peter Pickett II that has been present in the recent past is not whom Peter Pickett II actually is...

Or... is he?

The dilemma leading to that convoluted statement leads to what needs to be observed as in faith or in a carnal state of being.

So the Peter Pickett II that has been of recent has been an awful person. He has been extremely impatient and very upset at times with the ability to lose control of himself in losing his anger and taking it out on people, pets or things.

So, what did he do? He called out to God knowing that the devil has formed his current attributes into a deadly form. He knows he needs help... so he did so by seeking 'Devine' help.

• Noticed that I was in trouble
• Identify my issues
• Sick of life
• Sick of being sick
• Sick of money
• Sick of dealing with new diets
• Sick of new dog
• Sick of being complacent
• Sick of being a sloth
• Impediments
• Playing WOTB
• Not being in the Word

What was today devotional from Charles Stanley?

• Phillipians 4:11-13 11 I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be contentwhatever the circumstances. 12 I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. 13 I can do all this through him who gives me strength.

LOL, is this me? Or you?

"I can do ALL things through Him who gives me strength." 

So, how can I do all things... 

• Well, the current "thing" that I wish to achieve is:
• LIVING
• As opposed to dying in a vehicle accident or being shot by a lunatic
• Yes, I have wished all the above.

How does one achieve LIVING:

• It can only come from Him, the giver of True Life (not the one we lead ourselves).
• You gotta deny yourself of your ways and seek His.
• Your carnal feelings can lead you astray

I've decided that I need to actively seek Him everyday if I want to Live in Him.

• What does that entail?
• You must do a devotional.
• Reading at night... make time.

Love is patient, Love is kind, it does not boast.

Lord God, please increase my faith by providing me a new strength in You. The Peter Pickett II of the past is often sick, but I faithfully let go of my past knowing it will get in the way of Your work in me in the today and future. I need You and I want to Live, and that can only happen if you do it.

In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
