Unsettled

I received my Made to Crave (by Lysa TerKeurst) book from Amazon.com. It's a 60 day devotional and I would like to share my thoughts and feelings while reading these short passages.

Thought for the Day: Unsettle me in the best kind of way. For when I allow your touch to reach the deepest parts of me - dark and dingy and hidden away too long - suddenly, a fresh wind of life twists and twirls and dances through my soul.

After reading today's devotional I found myself thinking of the game Jenga.  I compare it to my life. If you have ever played this game you know how towards the end, the tower gets in quite a precarious situation. The bottom has lots of spaces in it and with the slightest touch it will fall over.

I feel it's like my life because I know I have spread myself too thin and there are lots of open spaces in my foundation.  I have all these horrible habits in life; eating, discipline, self-control (which I am now seeing mirrored in my daughter). I know that continuing through this devotional I will find a way to fill in those empty spaces with Godly "blocks".

Well here is to reinventing my self!
