Let me be willing to be willing

 Let me start by saying, I started this blog entry back in February, and I am just now able to put my words down like I want them.
Let me be willing to be willing...
Wow what a statement. I was given this statement for me to ponder on in my "Prayer circle".  Think about this..Let me be willing to be willing.
How many times do we do things that we really do not want do so therefore we do it begrudgingly. Sure we do it but don't enjoy it one bit.
This statement could be used in so may ways...I am using it now as a life statement. Lord, let me willing to be willing to do.......to be......to lead......to follow....
Right now, I feel my struggle is being a wife.  I want to be the best wife I can be for my husband. I struggle with this a lot.  I want to be my own person but at the same time, once you are married, you are a wife, a mother, a...this...a...that...you wear many hats.    

So my thought process has been "Lord let me willing to be willing" If I am wanting to be a better wife, and a better mother, I have to be willing to do things when I don't want to, or have no desire to.   I have to change my mind set, to block out the "I don't want to" to "I am willing, please help"

Now, as I have thought about this since February, I see how much more things in my life that I need to put this into place.  Its crazy, when you have a happy and open heart about stuff, things good happen.  You see changes all around you.  You see changes in YOU! How awesome is that?? Think about it, if you change how you feel about things, the people around will change too.  You encourage them, you bring your open heart, you "be the one willing" and others will follow in your footsteps.  
How can you change whats around you with a change of heart?With a change of mind? What changes are you going to make? I challenge you, become willing to change..Let me know how it goes...

To the world you are one person, to one person you are the world..
