Are you looking at the coming year and making some plans? I am. Ever feel like you've got a million little things you mean to get around to doing? Maybe that's the problem -- too many, too small...
You've been in a pattern of fleshly indulgence in your marriage. You know what God calls you to, but you just won't do it. When were you going to start? Do you imagine that this is some sort of dress rehearsal, and real life, life that counts, will start... when? When were you going to start putting on the Lord Jesus, and making no provision for the flesh? When were you going to start putting to death the practices of the body? When?
