Day 5 - My Everyday Struggles

Aiming to live a holy life to be always close to God is not easy but the consolations are boundless. When I am tired because I have pushed myself too hard, I become irritable and remiss with my other responsibilities. When I leave my mind to idleness, my thoughts begin to wander... and the result often agitates rather than consoles me.

Striving to be close to God can be frustrating too as I just seem to keep on failing. Humans are weak, I know. We struggle with our flesh, our tendency to sin, and the temptation of the devil. This is why I call on God and depend on Him to help me. There is no other way.
