On Spiritual Formation

I know I've talked a lot recently about feeling like I'm being hit with a spiritual 2x4. But with that is also a feeling of "it's not enough" It's not enough for me to hear the words that are being said, feel like I'm told to change, then decide that I'm too tired to do anything about it. There are a lot of aspects to Spiritual Formation, and being shown your deficiencies is definitely part of it, but that's not all of it. I know that it is not enough to simply hear, and if all I do is hear, then forget it, I'm not really listening. That needs to change. I need to turn to God and in his power, make an actual difference in my life, because if I don't, then everything that I've experienced will have been for nothing.
