Thoughts

I sit here and wonder what life is all about. Life is about growing into the best person we can be. In order to do that life must be centered around Christ. How can we let go of the all about "me" and "us" lifestyle and turn to him?

It is so hard sometimes to keep Christ as the center of my life. I try, I know I could try a lot harder. If I put as much effort into learning and devoting my life to Christ as I put into being a mom I would rock.

I always seem to find something else to focus on besides Christ. I do not know why this is. I know he should be in the center ring all the time. We should be cheering in life as we watch Christ. He defeats all evil as long as Christ is at the heart of the battle. We are the ones who fail to let Christ win. I know that when I am really in need of Christ I am so quick to turn to him. I need to learn that I need to turn to him all the time, not just when I need him.

My son and I dance to Christian music at home and in the car but that does not mean Christ is always the focus of our day-to-day life. I want to rethink and remember what it was like when I was a child. When it was always fun to praise Jesus. It seemed like evil was not always around. I want to be able to see Christ again through the eyes of a child.
