Check your motives and efforts..... Have you ever been in a situation where the harder you try the further behind you get? It's frustrating not only because you are wasting tons of effort, but also it is not very enjoyable. Have you ever considered that perhaps your motives for doing this may be based on the wrong things and that is why the efforts are not bringing results? My best example is trying to lose weight but never changing my diet. Sure…I go longer at the gym, yet I continue to eat more carbs and junk. Perhaps it's different for you, but I have learned to check my motives to make sure they are good and then see that my efforts match up. ... Check your experience. ... "We ask God to direct our thinking, especially asking that it be divorced from self-pity, dishonest or self-seeking motives." Big Book pg 85. Lord, let us check our motives to make sure they align with Your will for us and not our selfish wants, AMEN. "and as long as he sought the Lord, God made him prosper." 2 Chronicles 26: 5 Have a blessed day y’all! …. MAKE A DIFFERENCE! Furniture Bank is in the hand-UP business and not the HANDOUT GAME! You can donate any amount for a tax deduction and tax receipt, even $20 a month helps, because $100 provides a new twin bed and bedding to make a house into a home for our clients and families escaping homelessness and hopelessness. We usually send 2 or 3 of these to every family we assist. Furniture Bank is a 501c3 public charity and every penny donated goes toward helping our families, veterans, and individuals in need.
