Self-sabotage takes on many forms in our lives as scribes, artisans and just plain people of God. It is often drenched in chronic procrastination, extreme excuse making, a flurry of endless unfruitful activity and a host of other bomb-shells focused on self-directed implosion that work wonders in turning dreams and hope to dust.
How do I know? Well, because I have had to overcome them. I had to realize that God isn’t a time waster. He IS a finisher. Me, on the other hand, not so much without Him. I knew that if I was going to finish what he had entrusted to me that I had to do it in His strength — not my own. That meant Theresa had to recognize self, work at defeating those “Theresa-habits” and allow God to have his way.
