Chapter 1 of Unglued Questions Yes the feeling that i couldn’t make “perfect changes” This statement is so me! It is exactly how I feel.
2) I have thought of myself as not being worthy of a do-over Again. I know the Bible tells me differently but I don’t always feel that way. So yes I do have setbacks that keep me kind of stuck. I am waiting for the perfect time the perfect place and moment to Change. When it doesn’t cme I get discouraged and wonder how many times God will let me start again.
3) I love the thought of imperfect progress. That is going to be my new goal, my new prayer. It sounds so simple to think about it doesn’t it? I don’t want a quick fix because those kinds don’t usually last like the long term ones do. I am willing to do it right so that I can go forward, possible farther then I backslide sometimes
4)Trust is not easy for me. I want to trust I want to believe. I have to re-learn that because my feelings are real. I know God is trustworthy but my feelings tell me differently sometimes. Tonight I learned that sometimes I have to get beyond the feelings and fix the thoughts that attach themselves to the feelings
5) Lots is hindering my relationship with God. I need another do-over. I need to get my thoughts lined up. I truly believe that it all starts with our thought process and how we chose to let them control us.
6) I love the entire chapter becaue it spoke volumns to me. I saw myself inbetween the lines. Imperfect Progress is a beautiful thought. “Being unglued for me is a combination of anger and fear” “God gave us emotions to experience life not distroy it.” bending under the weight of past mistakes. “A new script is waiting to be written” Lots of great stuff packed into the 1st chapter!!
