Blame it on the... ?

This just randomly popped into my head so I thought I'd write something about it. There is a song on the radio called " blame it on the.." If you listen to the song you know that is followed by .. the alcohol. Don't stop reading and think I'm going to go on a rant about drinking.. although I very easily could and may eventually go that direction, that's not my intentions for this post.

I'm just thinking how many times do we blame our own personal actions on other things within our life? I know I do for sure. Like right now, I don't really want to do much because I'm sick and my main desire is to just take it easy. I also speed ALOT, I sometimes blame it on the fact that I'm in a hurry or that it's hard not to when everyone else around me is. I won't even eat certain things because I'm a "picky eater." I know I, and maybe you do too, tend to make excuses for why we do or don't do certain things. I'll just cut to the chase, my challenge is.. do the right things and leave the wrong things alone, because eventually when you stand at the throne of God and you have to answer for your life, you can't say, " well, I blame it on the following things." Make it a point to hold yourself accountable to what is right and focus on not making excuses and you will find that your life will be a lot more rewarding and you won't look back with regret on all the excuses you made for not doing the things you wish you would have done, or doing the things that you know you shouldn't have done.
