The Struggle
You ever been moving along on a dirt road then hit a HUGE patch of mud and began to struggle to get through. You get bogged down. sometimes you need four wheel drive or even some help. Wellll I have hit that point. I am stuck...... I know what I should do but why don't I do it? So similar to my struggles in other areas of life. I know the answer is in the word BUT why do I not take time to get in the word like I should. What makes us draw back away from the people around us? I know others around me have there own struggles, so the season sometimes is lonely. Your accountability partners get busy. My bride posted something on Face Book that made me think. What is it that makes us think we have all the answers? Especially us as Men. We want to FIX it all and think we have all the answers. I gotta tell you. I don't have all the answers. I can't do this alone. I need Jesus, and my family, and my friends to make it through the struggle. Maybe just maybe a guy just needs an ata boy now and then, or as my wife said compassion. To my friends if I have ever seemed sharp or harsh I beg your forgiveness, and I promise you I will not judge you in any way in the future. I will challenge you in the spirit of a loving and caring attitude. In the meantime, I will continue the struggle and I will get un stuck!

Cary, life is suppose to have a few bogs in it.Think about it, if live was a breeze we'd all be the same. It's the challenges that make or break us. Guys like you live for the challenge, but feel the struggles no less. Go watch the book of Eli..was he blind from the start? or get that way on his journey? Yet, he does complete his call...as will you, one less bite at a time.. "I don't always eat, but when I do I chew slowly my friend" (the most interesting dieter in the world is the life of parties he doesn't even attend)
