"Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the realm of the dead, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom." (Ecclesiastes 9:10 NIV)
Why can't some of us find it? Why as human beings, do we believe that self discipline is something your taught?
Actually, it's more like something you use. Waking up every morning can be tough, believe me I know, especially due to the lack of sleep I have been experiencing lately.
What pushes us to get up and tackle the day? Are we forced to get out of bed where it's warm, comfy, and just so accepting of your body's every desire, or do we enjoy the presence of the waking sun and give thanks for the beautiful day that is in store for us all?
We must be grateful! Grateful for the fact that we HAVE the ability to get up out of bed, the ability to WALK to the bathroom, the ability to HAVE a wardrobe to choose from, the ability to MAKE breakfast, the ability to WORK, the ability to HAVE a VOICE!
I have come to the point in my life where I just want to be so brutally blunt to those who take the little things in life for granted, and explain to them why their choices in life are resulting from their insecure perceptions of reality. If you're overweight, than WALK. If you're broke, than WORK. If your hungry, than COOK. If you have heart issues, than take the INITIATIVE.
If NOT then give it to someone who will utilize these gifts, and not take the lack of motivation fore-granted.
All i'm saying is that we ALL have problems and issues that seem to be a factor in our decision making. Just do it! Nothing else should be said. We are who we are, by what we do! Learn to take the initiative and start living up to the expectations you have for yourself, and stop giving up when times get a bit hard. We are fortunate to even have the capacity to understand this concept! BE GRATEFUL FOR IT.
A mans WORD is all he has to live for, and die for. Word is bond. Regaining Honor one moral at a time!-----------------------------------------> (John 1:1) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
