Man, I have been out of sorts lately and the only diagnosis I have for it is being in a Funk. It's mainly on a spiritual level though. I feel like Stella and can't get my groove back. What I think that has really gotten me down the most is that I know exactly how to get out of this "funk", but can't seem to get my want-to right! I know the right answers-read my Bible daily, prayer, prayer, prayer, fellowship with God, etc. etc. I know these because I've taught them to others, but I can't seem to make it make sense for me right now. I woke up at 3:30 this morning thinking about what I needed to do, what I knew to do. And I did for little while. But what I can't rationalize is why I'm in this funk. I love my Lord! I know he loves me! I know he desires joy and peace and life-abundantly-for me! And I desire that from him. I don't like the funk. They should make a pill to cure it like it was some kind of disease!
Other aspects of my life are really good though. My family and I have really had a great summer together. My dad is doing pretty well. I talk to my mom at least once a week. I've giggled and cut-up with my sister just this past weekend!
So I guess I say that just to ask for your prayers to be inspired to get out of this mudhole I feel like I'm in.

You're not the only one, sister. That verse that Paul says he does what he doesn't want to do but doesn't do what he knows he needs to do--that's me. I don't know if mine is laziness or the fact that it takes effort and I'm exhausted or what! I'll be praying for you.
Sometimes it's hard to get past the "Human condition" if you know what I mean. I understand what you are talking about though. It's like when I lay in bed thinking about how much I need to be getting exercise, and then when I get up, I ignore that need.
You and I both know that I am just as funky. I'm blaming it on the July heat.
