Prone to wanderLord I feel it
You know those kids who are so wild that their parents feel the need to put a leash on them while walking through the mall? Sometimes I feel like God should do that with me. Of course He won't, cause, hi He's God and He's going to let me wander. You know that free-will thing. But I really do wish there was a leash to pull me back when I start to get too far away. I feel like recently, I've been pulling a little too far away. Wandering into the world of the internet, facebook, reading pointless blogs (like MLIA), watching tv, reading, all these things that in themselves aren't too bad. But when put all together and with the amount of time spent on these things. It doesn't leave much room for God or prayer or just silence. One of the reasons I'm excited for Lent! No more facebook, no more blogs (with a few exceptions), no more online games. And taking it's place? reading the Bible, praying, getting back to my prayer walks with God. I'm excited for this Lent and what God has in store for me!
