Habits

Do you realize that sometimes we walk in a path out of habit? We do things, say things and really do not understand clearly that we are only walking in thoughtless, habitual paths.  We are doing what we are doing simply because we've always done it that way. Walking in circles is definitely not where God wants you to be. We seem to be resistant to change but sometimes change is exactly what you need. God desires to change your heart and often change your direction. He has great big plans for you and they are to climb high, not circle.  

If you find yourself in a spiritual drought, dry, parched and stuck in a desert place...remember who God is.  Scripture reveals that Christ is the Living Water and any who drink shall never thirst again.  The Psalmist declared, "The river of God is full of water" and "there is a river whose streams make glad the city of our God."  When you find yourself in a dry and weary place, be refreshed by the Spirit of God. 

Stop circling the mountain of drought in an endless routine doing the same thing, the same way.  If you expect different results you must stop your routine circling and stop doing things the way they've always been done before. This is insanity. 

Realize there must be a change in your endless circling.  Start to spend time with God and let Him restore you with spiritual water. Take time today to talk with Him and listen as you receive guidance from His Word. Be encouraged by the Spirit of God.   You will find His refreshment is real and everlasting.  Be open minded to change and follow God's direction.
