Working with teenagers as a therapist in a hospital setting,
I find myself dealing with the same problems just in different forms.
One thing that is EXTREMELY common among teenagers is impulsiveness.
I was just so unpleasantly reminded that I share that same struggle.
Don't get me wrong it is WAY better than it used to be,
but it is still there.
If I shared with you the instances in which I was impulsive you may laugh.
The instances are not bad. They are not going to destroy my life.
I am not in danger. Yet I still know that these instances are me trying to control my life,
and not giving control to God.
I know that I am called to lay down my life daily to Him.
These little instances of impulsiveness are examples of me not dying to self.
I want to live a life that shines the light of Christ....
NOT the light of Cary.
"Direct my footsteps according to your word, let no sin rule over me."
Psalm 119:133
