When the Who in Whatville Fails

What has it been? One week since God gave me the wonderful news that I could be the person I was meant to be in the midst of all the "what" in which I live?
I still believe it! And yet, it is hard when one lives in "Whatville" to live like a "Who."

So, what happens when I fail at living out this truth?

Although the miry clay wants to reclaim me, it can't!
 With a reminder (sometimes quickly and sometimes more slowly) I can back up and escape the snare.

I truly believe God is not disappointed with me for not living this out perfectly. His patience is soooo much greater than mine.

As the Compass Rose becomes more deeply engraved on my heart, I know I will respond quicker to the sight of the danger ahead signs and move around them with more finesse, agility, and wisdom.  
Until that time I will become good at putting myself in reverse.

 Ps 145:14
The LORD upholds all those who fall
and lifts up all who are bowed down.

NIV
