sincerity

Lying awake in bed early this morning, I begin to question the meaning of sincerity. Is this a emotionally charged feeling connected to a cause? Or just a long term commitment to the cause even though you're questioning it or belief, but the logic and everything stands behind it anyway. So you stand tall. The truth is I don't really know and that makes me wonder. On the one, I am not to judge myself or others. On the other hand, I can do nothing but that. It's human condition and nature.

I was reading a friend of friend's blog today. She was talking about her struggles with children and life. As humans, we tend to think that everything difficult that happens to us is our fault and can be changed with prayer. While true, it doesn't always change to our exact specifications or liking. This means that we can't change the past or expect life to you perfect. Because it isn't. What she did say though, is that you always have a opportunity to pray for Joy.

I never thought of it like that.

Restore my joy, Lord
