Forgetting: Sameness. Thinking that every day is the same, one after another. That life resembles a line of zombies monotonously plodding one behind another.
Remembering: Each morning brings new mercies from God the Father. Each day He releases the thing that I need to get through that day. Every day can be an adventure with God. My part is invite Him, and to follow where He leads, and do what I see Him do.

In June of 2017, there were people painting rocks and leaving them places. A co-worker gave me a rock that said "And so the adventure begins" or something like that. Well, the adventure needs to end. Sameness is looking really good now. Everyday with God is an adventure to some degree. The joy is there if we choose to tap into it.

Day 4: Spirituality
Forgetting: a poverty spirit
Remembering: my God and Father owns the cattle on a thousand hills. He uses gold to pave streets. He creates universes. His worlds are songs composed of light and music. Despite all He has he chooses to love the people He created. He promised that He would meet all my needs according to his riches in glory.
Read: Psalms David talks about the majesty of God. While I don't understand it, I do know that God cares about my every need.
Update 11/11/17:
While I believe that this idea of a purpose driven life is akin to heresy, I do believe that God has work for me to do. My "work" is to do the will of the Father. I am to do good works daily. Those good works could be many things, such as: a smile at a disheartened co-worker, crying with someone in pain, listening patiently instead of thinking of all I could be doing, being patient in a line at a store, cooking a meal for my family. These are the will of the Father, and a whole lot more.
