I have to be honest... i don't know everything. When I think about it, i must admit that i don't even know all that i thought i knew. What i am now sure of is this: i am nothing without Christ. No really hear me out. I know it sounds cliche, but really i'm just now realizing this. I've tried so hard to be holy. I've tried so hard to live for Christ. I've tried so hard to put off the old man and to walk in righteousness, but i keep failing. I'll do fine for a couple of months and then the sin will sneak right in, digusting me and tempting me to just give up. I didn't give up because I knew God the father, the son and the Holy Spirit is real - i must having been doing something wrong. I tried to seek God and i couldn't even do that right. I still refused to give up. I just cried. And i was embarassed to cry out to the saints for help because then they would know that i didn't have it right... i realized that this was pride. In the midst of it all God sent His children to me, to comfort me and to show me why i kept failing. "I" was trying to be holy. "I" was trying to walk in righteousness, when "I" can't do anything but sin and come up short. "I" really have to die to myself and let the Holy Spirit reign in me. "I" still don't know quite how to do it, but "I" give up. Believing and trusting in the Holy Spirit is all "I" can do.
