I'm Back!

For whatever strange reason, I like beginnings but not the endings (unless, of course, I am running). There is an excitement in them for me where I feel God is saying, "try something new and see what I have in the plans".

The problem here is that every beginning has an end.  This post has a beginning and it will end.  It's those flipping endings that I don't  are for.  I must not, anyway, as I can't seem to finish much of anything...

.....At least....

That is how I've been feeling lately.

But.....

It is a lie.

Both my heart and mind have been lying to me.  Or probably more accurately- Satan using whatever little fears he can to discourage me.

Things I have finished:

college
High School
Books (so many wonderful stories)
Christmas stockings
Painting various rooms in the house
The Bible (in terms of reading it cover to cover- I never want that book to end for me)
And shortly, I will delete candy crush and hay day from my devices because....

......Hi, my name is Mary, and I'm addicted to stupid games that I allow to take me away from time I could be spending with God.  FB usage is also going to decrease dramatically because it is the first thing I look at in the morning and last thing I usually see at night. God deserves me, not some social media version of me.

There,  I said it.

None of this can be taken back because everyone knows.  Or at least everyone who reads this knows ;)

And on that note, I am ending this post so that I begin yet another devotional and spend some time in  the word in my quiet house thanks be to school.
