God and Me

I saw a sister in Christ restored this morning. I'm so proud of her and happy for her future. Her example so encouraged me that I asked for the prayers of the church on my own behalf this evening. Sometimes God can't work through you until you clear your own log-jams, and I need all of His help I can get. As I conveyed in my message to the congregation, it would break my heart if I knew I ever caused another of His children to stumble. I want to be a better wife, daughter, and friend in the future than I have been in the past.

God has been so good to me and I never want to take His privileges for granted. I also don't want to be too proud not to own my own sins. I can think of no worse predicament than having my avenue of prayer to Him revoked by my own pride and unrepentance.
