I haven't really been happy with life for a while and I have been trying to blame others for it, but I really can't... it's MY life and I guess I chose to live it the way I have, but I'm changing my perspectives a bit here.
John 15:9-12
As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love: even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.
This is what I've needed. "Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin." I need to glorify God for all He has given me. Thank Him for the talents and use it to have joy. Keep away from corrupt speech, keep my eyes straightforward for and turn around from evil.
I need to desire God, and I may receive joy by doing it. It's kinda funny that all these years, I've been playing "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" without really thinking about it, and this is probably what I need the most right now.
