BAD HABIT DISORDER
Did you know there is a bad habit disorder?
It is not the bad habit...all of us parade through Bad Habit Land, trying on different shapes and sizes and selecting the one that is just right for us--just right to harm us somehow, that is.
The disorder is neglecting the Voice that tries to rescue us from our current bad habit of choice. It is that tiny, but clearly detectable, nudge that whispers to our heart and our conscience, "Stop," or "Don't."
We neglect the Voice because we want to indulge, or not exert discipline to stop, or both.
Bad Habit Land is not a misnomer. It is called bad because it is somehow hurting us. But that is not the whole story. The real grief of Bad Habit Land is that it says to our always listening ears, "You are not worth the hard work of rescue, recovery, and delivery."
Oh, but we are. Oh, but you are. Do you have a bad habit to let go of in the year ahead?
First, decide you are worth it. That will be the engine that powers you right out of the Badlands. Delivery begins with that incredible decision. That decision powers everything else because it agrees with God Himself. Since He made you, He says, "You are worth it."
Try it--all you have to lose is...your bad habit.
