Markita's Musings.......

This is the first day I had totally free in a while, and somehow I started working on this blog and have added some things to it and kind of made it my own. So maybe I will use it a little more often and let you into this pretty little head of mine.

Last night I kind of had a chip on my shoulder... My thoughts were "Lord what is wrong with your church?!" I asked the Lord this because another leader in the church has fallen from grace and then there are other things. Every time something like this occurs it breaks my heart because it makes God look weak, when its man that is weak and people get hurt in the process. So I was on my soapbox to the Lord, complaining more than crying out to him. Remember the saying "when you point at someone 3 fingers are pointing back at you", well there you go I had to repent. The sum is only as good as it parts, so it is going to require individuals to work out their own salvation (with fear and trembling according to the bible) to improve the condition of the church. So that leads me to ask "WHAT AM I DOING on a individual basis to improve the condition of the church?" I know I can't change me only Christ can, but I can yield myself to him for servicing. To be very honest, that is easier said than done. Where do we begin? How do we maintain? I can always get off to a good start but fade out eventually. I know this is not a question that is easily answered. Why? Because we do not live in perfect conditions, we have jobs, families and other things necessary to daily living. One thing that I know for sure is I want to live a life totally sold out to Christ.
