Comment on Weight of Entanglement Part 2 by coop

love me some 3-legged-races. not.

but everyone in a marathon, even the 3-leggers, is going in the right direction. they are supposedly running the race marked out for them.

but the extra weight, the force, the itchy potato bag dont have to be there. unnecessary and harmful. so much harder than it has to be.

but at the same time, one might have to exert the same or more energy to “un-3-leg” oneself. it is a battle. there are going to be bullets flying. but not accepting medical help for wounds isn’t a smart idea.

i don’t think the weights are necessarily noticeable to the person bearing them. i feel like it’s possible to put the armor of God over things that hurt us or entangle us.

for moi, entanglement looks like conflict with others, bearing the weight of other’s decisions, giving other’s words too much weight, [the whole relationshipional (new word) area as a whole: past, present, and future], and other’s sins. among other things.

i think both recognizing entanglement and throwing it off are really hard for me.

this concludes my sermon hahaaha :)

my weights include my fears, doubts, and insecurities. my attempts to control, my pride, and my self-protective measures. but i think my heaviest weight is my thinking that my race depends on me (AKA forgetting to rely on Him as my all in all).

I think past experiences or relationships can really weigh me down. I don’t want to make the same mistake twice, so I usually am quite extreme in executing lessons I learn. It would be like if you and Steph added 70 lb weights to REALLY make sure you were ready…unnecessary. I agree with Coop. I need Jesus to be my weight loss plan. He needs to trim away the extra and I need to go to Him with my work out clothes more often.

What are YOUR weights, Trace?
