Something I've been thinking about

I feel like I've been distracted a lot lately. No, I don't mean that I'm having issues with my attention span. What I mean is that I feel distracted from the calling I believe God has for me and my own goals and visions that result from the calling I feel.

I've realized that when I align my heart with God's and seek to fulfill his will for my life above everything else that he blesses me far beyond anything I expect. For Example, Butler Project. So often my heart strays from God's heart and I become distracted from my purpose. It's very odd, I am fulfilling my desires and wants but it makes me feel more horrible than anything else. I can see how worshiping the gods in my life affects myself personally, as well as the relationships I have, especially the closest relationships in my life. It is scary how something that you think is so insignificant (although it is incredibly significant) can affect your life in as many ways as it does.

I want to seek and follow God's will in my life, as much as he reveals to me and as well as I can in these areas of my life:

• My relationship with Sera
• Purpose and direction of my schooling
• What I will do with my life (in college, and after)
• Financial crap

I'm sure I could at least double that list if I took a lot more time to think about it. But I suppose those are four of the more major areas.

Some other random goals:

• Start a band
• Start some sort of prayer group
• Be more bold and charismatic in my faith
• Don't underestimate the Holy Spirit

Although those seem random, at last in my mind, they are connected with what I talked about above. There more of a practical working out of those things, I suppose.

That's all for this installment.
