Hellooo

I thought for a long time and decided to take a real leap of faith this year.

I'm giving up things that .. seem pretty impossible for Coralie to give up because they take up a big portion of my life and honestly take precedence over time with God.

Here we go..

Are you excited?

Hehe.

I/m kinda trembling cause I've never dared give these up.

1. hypem ( It's where I get most of my new music. I've developed this bizarre OCD with staying on top of the latest music and making sure that there are at least five new songs in my collection each day. I end up spending about three hours total just sampling songs. This is just as geeky as spending hours on LoL........... )
2. youtube / vimeo ( Ok this is just really crazy of me.)
3. facebook / skype (Unless it's with my family.. hehe)


So the logic behind this is that because I expend so much time and energy in those, I lose time for my studies - YES everyone sometimes I study too - and then I end up sleeping later or missing church events (prayer gathering, broomball, morning prayer). I wake up late and miss my morning QT, which never gets done any other time of the day.
Another aspect of this is to discipline myself. I was talking with Jessica during LG and she told me something about the importance of discipline in our everyday lives and that somehow correlating to our spiritual lives. If I can't even get my homework done efficiently, how am I expecting to be used greatly for God?
I'll probably go through withdrawal and I'll be out of the loop, but honestly. All that good stuff never fills that space reserved solely for God.


But most of all, I'm taking this measure to really ask for God's help to make our relationship my number one priority. Cause I know I can't make God my top priority on my own strength. So I guess I need to ask for that first and seek it, without distractions 1, 2, and 3.







Oh Lord.
