It's funny - I keep telling myself I will write in my blog on a regular basis. And during the times that I really, really need to, I don't. What's with that?
Right now it seems as though I have no reason to attempt anything, let alone actually accomplish something. I have no rashionale or reason, it just is. And in case you are wondering, IT IS NOT A RESULT OF DEPRESSION BECAUSE I'M NOT DEPRESSED!
I suspect that today's dissertation is still somewhat related to the meaning of Lent. Let's face it. The events of the Lenten season, as handed down, were events which underscored the importance of obedience (and no, it has nothing to do with agreeing to eat fish on Friday!) - and even more important than obedience, LOVE (agape).
I know that I'm whining at the moment about not having any motivation, and I will get into that in further detail shortly. But when I contemplate what Christ accepted, what He said YES to, the suffering He endured - how could He possibly have that kind of motivation? I mean, I have no motivation and would rather be dead - and Christ is motivated to go through His pain because he WILL die, and His life will have had purpose. I feel like I have no purpose - and herein lies the problem. I am not able to live up to the way of life Christ inspired for us. I complain about how hard it is. And He remained silent. Holding myself up to His example, I think, will be my fastest way to my death, because it's useless.
So what do I feel? (More later...)
