Not of This World

Why do I feel lazy?
Why am I so unmotivated?
Maybe I’m tired.  Tired of repetition. Tired of this routine.
This routine where I play the game. I put on the face.
I pretend like everything’s ok.
It’s not.
Deep down I’m hurting.
I’m longing for something more.
More than this world has to offer.
I need to look outside of myself.
This desire I have can’t be satisfied through others.
It’s not of this world.


“Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God— this is your true and proper worship.  Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.  Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is— His good, pleasing and perfect will.” 
//Romans 12:1-2//
