Sure, were all dead to sin.. but sin isn't dead to us. Lately I've felt crippled, ashamed and or afraid to move onto better things. I want so much for God to fill me up but I hesitate so much to be in his word. It's true that it is my nature to sabotage myself. We ask for blessings, but do we really want them? Pretty soon we get the mentality that we just can't do it... we have to screw up.. find an opportunity for it...
If we can't get past what holds us back the most, we wont miss out on God's blessings because he won't give them to us... but, we'll be so afraid to screw things up even more that we will be too ashamed or afraid to accept them. I wish I was dead to myself. If we all were, we could save ourselves alot of time and grief. yikes.

It's ok dude, I know how you feel. Sometimes I am afraid of the WORD and I just feel like I can't dive into it. But that is the WORST thing we can do because it is exactly what the ENEMY wants us to do. Just take a deep breath...be in solitude..pray...and ask God to give you the courage to move on and rely on HIM.
He LOVES you meyn, don't be afraid.
