WHY???

Why do we let the world / friends/ relationships/ other people dictate our happiness? I find myself doing it everyday. I allow it to happen daily. Why can't it be enough for us to depend on the one true thing that brings happiness, God? Why can't He be enough for our little human hearts & minds? I just don't understand it. Why do we make it so difficult? Why do we allow the evil one to have such control over us that we feel that we have to find happiness in other people or in worldly things? WHY??
Oh i get so frustrated when I look back and realize that I have allowed myself to rely on something/someone else for my happiness. It seems to take something going wrong with this thing or person to wake us up and see things in true light. Why does it take a duh moment to realize... ONLY THE LORD IS TRUE HAPPINESS & JOY!

How do we allow satan to put such a blindfold on us and not even realize that it's happening? I just don't understand it. It frustrates me more than anything to know that I have allowed the blindfold to be put on me to begin with. UGH!

Praise the Lord that he is so patient with us. There is a reason we are referred to as sheep, because sometimes we are just sooo stupid! If it weren't for the grace of God, we'd be wondering around lost and condemned to live without him forever. BUT HIS GRACE IS SUFFICIENT FOR ME/You/ US!
"And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness." ~2 Corin 12:9

"And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. " ~ Romans 12:2

Why???

Because we are flesh, sinners from day one when we were brought into this world. Sometimes we need happiness from other people to help us move on from whatever we are dealing with.

Life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God. Galatians 2:20

I like this post. It is way much true. And no, that statement was in no way meant to sound grammatically correct...
If we could only remember that as crap is happening and not after the fact we'd be doing good. And by "we" I mean "me", not "you".
