Focus: Heart, Head, Hands, + Habits

There are many things I could focus my life on. However, I want these four characteristics to always be a priority in my life:


Heart: This is the wellspring of life itself. Also, the heart is where my emotions and passions flow from.


Head: This is the belief that my faith is reasonable and having a desire to know what I believe is imperative and the understanding why this shapes who I am as I live out my faith in the world.


Hands: This seeks to answer the fundamental question, "how then should I live?"


Habits: Finally, how does what I do enable me to live the life I am called to live?


Not only do these serve as a focus, I want these to continually direct my life and my faith, so I'm not wandering around aimlessly.

Growth is Always on Me

I have realized that growth is always on me. When I don't see growth in my life and when I feel distant from God, that's on me.

I need to take responsibility for my own maturity. In the depths of my soul, I know God wants me to be wholly mature, not lacking anything.

Honestly, I lack motivation and I'm a little apathetic. The reality is the motivation to grow isn't always easy.

I don't want easy. I want the truth of God to penetrate my life: so I'm left changed.

This is what I'm learning as the summer progresses.
