Recapture.

"Take this rule: whatever weakens your reason, impairs the tenderness of your conscience, obscures your sense of God, or takes off your relish of spiritual things; in short, whatever increases the strength and authority of your body over your mind, that thing is sin to you, however innocent it may be in itself."
 - Susanna Wesley (Letter, June 8, 1725)

The "innocence" of it can be so tricky. I need prayers.

Loving kindness, tender patience, wisdom and responsibility.
These are things that I desperately need to recapture.
Father, forgive me.

"My flesh and my heart may fail,
but the Lord is the strength of my heart
and my portion forever." -  Psalm 73:26
