Like Father Like Son

I had a rather interesting week filled with the good the bad and the down right strange. I found my self being temped, pulled, stretched, torn in so many directions I was starting to loose my way. So me in my brokenness looked the for the first thing to blame. Of course i went through the normal check list of things, but I kept feeling worse and worse until I talked with a friend of mine who brought up some very interesting things. He told me about Jesus being tempted by the devil to do evil, but all so Jesus tempting, or Honing his followers to believe in him and do there Fathers will. So I realized that in my brokenness and hurt and sinful nature God was honing me to do his will, but as I am getting closer and closer to this summer and the task that he has presented me my life has become a battle field. God not only wanted to hone me but also to prune and trim me to fit the ideals he has for me. I have never felt so excited and free in my life.
