It’s amazing the condition you can allow yourself to get into and not even notice that there is a problem.  This week I have sort of reorganized my life.  I made a lot of realizations of stuff that has been sort of skewed in my life…  and today in chapel was sort of the completeion of that.

You know, honestly, a month ago if someone would have asked, I would have answered, and honestly answered (and people did ask, and I did answer) that I was doing perfectly all right with God and with my life in general.  As is turns out, I was wrong.  This week I have become closer to God then I have been in awhile.  And now that I am there, I can see a huge difference in being there, and in being where I was.  God has just been using every event in my life recently, whether good or bad, to bring me into the place I should be.  And I am very glad for that.  It is good to be in this place, because I truly have a joyful spirit right now, and it’s good to feel God’s presence… when you’re writing e-mails… or comments on your xanga site… or just going about your day.  But especially in the writing stuff.  Because then you are more prone to say the right and correct things.  Or at least, I think so.

I just have to say…  never think you know what is best for your life over what God has for you.  If you tell God essentially that you have found what you want, and don’t want anything else, because you can’t imagine anything better, then that closes you off to pretty much everything God has for you.  And believe me, what God has for you is infinitely better then anything you can possibly imagine.  By all means, pursue your desires… but always approach it saying “God, if this is your will, then let it happen… if it’s not, I’m willing to let it go.”  God wants to give you the best… don’t be afraid to let him.

I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Be blessed.

“Here I am waiting, abide in me I pray.
Here I am longing, for You.
Hide me in your love, bring me to my knees.
May I know Jesus more and more.

Come live in me,
All my life, take over.
Come breathe in me,
And I will rise, on eagle’s wings.”

Who’s Your 80s Movie Icon Alter-Ego? Find out @ She’s Crafty

(figures 😉  I liked that movie a lot… ‘cept for 2 scenes…. 1 because of bad acting and once because of a lot of unneccesary nudity… anyway, kinda agree with it… except… I don’t consider myself “painfully shy”… quiet, yes… but not painfully shy 😉  80’s movies rock.)
