Guilt and Stop Doing Lists

May 27th, 2011 in Randy's Blog

It’s been a little while since I last blogged.

Ok, it’s been a BIG while since I last blogged.  I’m not gonna lie, there have been times where I have felt guilty.  And I’m not really sure why.

Truth is, there can be any number of things that I feel guilty or badly about when there isn’t really any compelling reason too.

How about you?

One of the things I’m learning lately is the power of a “stop doing” list.  As the rhythms of life change, there are definitely things that I need to stop doing.

Some of them I need to stop doing for good.  Others I just need to stop doing for a period or season of life.

Blogging fell into the latter category for me for a while.  Truthfully, I have missed it.  But, not blogging  freed up some much needed time to focus on school work or ministry or family.

One of my favorite verses lately is 1 John 3:19-20.  Here they are:  “This then is how we know that we belong to the truth, and how set our hearts at rest in his presence whenever our hearts condemn us. For God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything.”

There are areas where we need to listen to what our conscience is telling us.  But there are also times when our heart is condemning us, making us feel guilty and we just need to set it at rest in God because it is not the final voice, Gods is….and he knows everything.

So, what are feeling guilty about and what needs to go on your “stop doing” list?
