Forgot to post yesterday Day 9 Living The Surrendered Life People watching is a hobby of mine. Dont let that stir a panic in you. Im not a weirdo or a stalker. I just enjoy the human race. What they say, what they dont say, the color of their eyes, the length of their hair, how confident they are by the way they carry themselves, how nervous they are because they lack said confidence. Not only do I like do sit and watch, I also like to sit and listen. Ive grew a lot during my 30s. So much so that instead of monopolizing a conversation, I actually enjoyed listening to others more. No matter their age, demographic or intellect. I believe I can learn something from everyone...good or bad. In all of this, one of the things that Ive learned about people is that some people are broken and some people are not. Allow me to unpack this for you. Broken people dont focus on the sins and issues of others. No, they are so aware of their need for a Savior that they work on themselves. Broken people dont demand their rights. No, they often lay them down. Broken people dont dodge responsibility for their actions. No, they are fully willing to accept the consequences of their sin. Ive heard more stories than I care to relate to you about people who cant or wont take responsibility for what theyve done. They play the blame game and run like crazy until they are far from the situation. If youve fallen into sin, own it. Even if you feel like you did something because of someone or because that someone didnt meet your needs. Newsflash: You sinned. You made the choice to sin. You need to make it right. No matter what anyone else did first. You are still responsible for you! Action Steps Do you find that you dodge responsibility for your actions? Do you ever blame someone else for your sinful actions? Spend some time with the Father today and ask Him to reveal to you why you take this path so often.
