Surfers?! junk

So although this blog is called surfers junk I haven't really been doing a lot of surfing lately....

I guess my priorities and a few other things have changed. My family life is a bit different these days with my baby becoming a toddler and soon to be big sister as my wife is due in just over 4 weeks. It's all exciting times at the minute with the imminent arrival but also what's exciting is I'm starting to get right with God again. I had been in a phase of just going through the motions for quite some time there and figured if I'm leading worship in church and tryin to lead other people to God then I need to be in that place myself. Like how can you lead someone else to a place you're not sure how to get to. 

That being said. The journey isn't an easy one but it's one that is worth the trip. 

I have started reading my bible more regularly and started a few reading plans on my bible app. And although it's a good start it's gonna take a lot more. Focusing on God. Asking the Holy Spirit for guidance and lots of prayer. 

My problem was that I focused my time on other things. The latest tv show, sleep, ice hockey, friendships and just chillin. Although none of these things are sinful there was, and still is sin in my life and I knew if I was to be a better person and a better husband/father I needed to take time out of my day to search for God. Someone once told me (I probably read it too) if you put crap in you get crap out. The same thing is if you put good in you get good out. I want my good to be God. Not just God but a life like Jesus. And the only way to do that is to focus on him and try to be like him. 

I know that not everyone will agree with my way of life or thinkin but it's the choice I want to make. 

Don't get me wrong I'm not gonna be giving up all those things above and def not surfing as surfing is sometimes where I find God the most. Just sitting out the back waitin on a wave and feeling his presence. What better place to find God than in his creation. But I'm going to attempt to focus every day on God and be more like Jesus and work on turning away from my sin. 

Peace out and God bless
