empty

I have begun to realize that more mornings than not, I wake up with a selfish mindset. Not necessarily a rude, grumpy, "gottahavemyway" mindset. No, it's more subtle. Rather, I wake up in a happy mood, with my interests in mind, thinking of ways I can be comfortable and entertained. Thus I experience an empty, lazy day in which I do little more than sleep in, lie in bed reading, play video games, get on facebook, and grumble about any kind of chore. I'm not thinking about how I can serve others, and I'm definately not thinkin about how I can serve the Lord. Not only does this make me look lazy and worthless to my friends, my family, and my God, but it's the perfect time for Satan to attack. And honestly, what kind of girl is gonna fall for a guy like that?

The prospects don't look fun, and the don't look easy either. But I'm determined to live a fuller life. And that means working hard (and cheerfully), serving others, and serving God.
