Yard Work

I’ve been trying to produce a decent blog post lately but I haven’t been able to put the thoughts I’ve been struggling through together so well. As I was weeding (more like sticker-bushing because the weeds turned into prickly vines after a few moments of plucking in the side yard) this morning all by my lonesome I started realizing the whirlwind of madness my brains have been processing. The detriment of secluding myself to the inner workings of my thought process is that I’m quick to flee from truth and consider my realizations to be most realistic in the scheme of the universe than is gospel and how it relates to each situation I encompass. I decide my own perspectives to be factual instead of running to Jesus to determine what's real. In order to maintain a healthy grasp of reality I need to be involved in community and God has been gracious to provide Doxa Community Church where my heart is influenced by the truth revealed in scripture so that life can be consistent in our united effort to glorify God.
