The Soul of a Man

I've realized the rut we as men can sometimes get into. It's a lifestyle rut, one built upon our own selfish desires & lust. I know as a man I can easily be mean to women and the like around me, and society welcomes it with open arms. I can have sex with a different person every other day of the week and this can be looked at as a thing of great pride (I do not have sex with a person every other day of the week, it's just an example ;] ). Not saying I'm perfect and don't make mistakes...cause I do all the time.

But as a child of the Almighty God, what is expected of me? Is this how He wants to see most men on this Earth? I guess I realized this rut cause I've never been here before. Obviously with my best friend's brother's death been weighing on my shoulders & the stress of school, I haven't been in the "healthiest" place spiritually. I am pretty weak people. I give in to temptation WAY too easily. So how do I fix this? DISCIPLINE.

Jesus Christ, the man we all love and know built His life on this amazing principal. And as a college boy sweeping with the tides, I find it hard to adhere to a steady dose of discipline. But regardless folks... I understand that if I don't start to change soon, it's all going to catch up with me. I can't live my entire life in a small rut as this. This young man has way too much passion & dreams to stay confined. I need to start fighting again, for what I love & want. And luckily I have a once in a lifetime opportunity coming up very soon... almost a month from now. BUT That's a whole month people lol. That's a long time to some.

Patience, discipline, passion, love, dreams, fighting. I know where my spirit desires to be, so let's go! No more sitting around, slouching off as I type another paper or judge the person I love on stage or critisize or be a freakin douche bag. YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I'VE GOT THAT LATELY!? Ha ha. Too much.

Thus let's stop acting like a douchey, lustful jerk (regular guy)... and transform into a passionate, kind follower of Jesus Christ (not your average guy).

Forgive me for my french or honesty, but people... we need to wake up sometimes & realize the world around us. And I'm not afraid to reveal my mistakes. Praise God!

Hope your week is wonderful, fullfilling, & peaceful:
