After gym thoughts

I read recently about a teacher who wrote very good advice about how to be a teacher, then became a good teacher and no longer writes good advice because everything is subconscious at that point in his career, that he doesn't understand how he, himself, actually teaches. This blog/journal will serve that purpose for me. As I learn ideas, tricks, and gain experience, I can write them down for my future self to look back on. I will certainly, and already have, forget many things that have been learned too well. I cannot teach a child to walk even though I do it every day. In the same way, I cannot teach the life lessons I have learned despite their importance due to committing them to my everyday life. 

I pray everyday for Gods help. For His wisdom, peace, strength, patience, joy, clarity, and for trust. Everyday I find myself praying a little more. On the days I forget to, I can feel my heart filling up with fear and the clutches of evil biting my soul. I cannot continue with life without my God, who is my strength. My efforts are futile without His power. My every action is sustained, every thought controlled, every pursuit succeeded for His glory and by His glory.

I understand I am still young in faith and have so much to learn. My trust is still young and in its youth as I am blown about by each trial. I yearn to have no second thoughts about God, to trust Him completely. Yet my fleshly body craves this world and constantly tugs at my heart. Only through Christ do I achieve victory over temptation. He has allowed me to continue in His name. I pray that when someone asks, I remember to give God the glory for any merit I have been given.
