Spiritual Self-Realization

At some point in your walk with God, you eventually come face to face with your brokenness. I mean, really fess up to it — look at yourself in the mirror and see yourself for the fraud you are.

That’s where I am.

I don’t like myself. I don’t mean that in some self-loathing, emo cry for attention kind of way. But when I’m honest, I don’t like who I’ve become.

I don’t like how the struggles of my youth have become my horrible character flaws of middle adulthood. I don’t like how I don’t trust God — not truly trusting him. If I did, I wouldn’t try to fill my life with so many other things instead of Him.

I have felt spiritually empty for a while, and this is my attempt to try and sort it out.
