Pray today: God, I want to be a good steward of the spirit-powers you've invested within me.

I've started getting a daily email with The Purpose Driven Life Daily Devotional, and this was the next to last line of a particularly damning email today. I've been using my gifts for dreadfully selfish purposes for a while. I've grown accustomed to indulging myself, so that I can recover from various physical strains, but I've forgotten to get beyond that once back on my feet. I let myself sleep in on my days off, miss church, decide not to bother going out to evening events or to even tidy up as much as I should about the house. I was well raised with good habits, but I've lost them somewhere along the line. And I've got... four months to get them STARTED on reconstruction, just so my baby has a good handle on managing her own life. *sigh* Help me, Lord...
