Potty Mouth....



I'm embarrassed to admit that one of my many, many daily struggles is with a.....potty mouth. (hanging head in shame) There, I've admited it publicly.


Have you ever noticed that when you are struggling and praying about something, someone or something comes along and it's as though God is speaking directly to you or that He is showing you a way to deal with it? Well, that happens to me a lot...just yesterday in fact.


I've really been doing my best to "clean up" my language, just when I'd start to think that I was conquering it, out pops something causing me to cringe and immediately ask for forgiveness...then feeling quilty, cause I just know it's gonna happen again. A vicious circle.


Back to yesterday....browsing through my fav blogs I follow, and here's the title that caught my eye: "I so don't have it all together" by Melinda Todd of Trailing after God


If you struggle with this or really, with anything, just go read her article, there is nothing I can say here that would do any justice to this subject like she does, it's really an awesome article, it even made me giggle a few times. She's an honest and real Christian and she made me feel better about not being anywhere close to perfect!


Is there something you struggle with daily? I'd love to hear about it...

Well, when I was younger I used to have MAJOR worry and guilt issues... I'd worry about, and go on guilt trips over, the silliest things! I've mostly gotten over that at this point, but occasionally I'll start to fall back into it and have to stop myself. It's still something I work on.

Oops, forgot to add- good luck with changing your "potty mouth habits"! Don't worry, if you work at it it will surely get easier over time. :)
