Natalie's wisdom...

So I was reading a post by a dear friend whom I haven't seen in about 2 years. She is funny, sweet, & apparently full of the ability to write well enough for me to understand a few things. She posted a tiny re-cap of her life in Spain this last year & I read something that made my heart sink. A good sink...a humbled sink.

This is what she had to say...  

"I realized then how deceitful and desperately wicked my heart is. I was confronted with my selfishness, with my weakness, with my frailty, and with the proof that I am so prone to wander. He revealed to me how foolish it is to be wise in my own opinion, and that individualism is disastrous--- it destroys fellowship with God. How can you please the Lord when you are doing what is right in your own eyes?"  

I love to read things like this from friends hearts...because then I don't feel so alone in my tiny jacked-up world of Ana. I frustrate myself over my own selfishness, & reading this made me cry because I destroy fellowship with GOD a lot.

To Natalie: Thanks dear friend for revealing this- I thank the Lord for your words of wisdom & awesome writing skills. WRITE MAS! Love you lady!
