| I serve such a faithful God and am continually amazed at when I am at my most defeated, he comes and shows how awesomely mighty he is. At the end of the journey, I look back and see how I should have trusted all along because God had it under control from day one. There was never a reason to doubt the outcome, but just to remain faithful to what I am supposed to do. God always saw the details and the big picture; my mind just saw the day to day details and it caused me to fret over not being able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Now I have reached the end of the tunnel and see that there never was a light at the end, but it was present the entire time. What I have to look forward to is already here, in the present, and living for God day by day and trusting his will is the order of the day. Thank you God for loving me in my spiritual blindness and for opening my eyes to see just a little more of you working in my life. I love you and am honored to serve you and your kingdom. | | |
| This is a wonderful time of the year...and a time for me to realize how truly blessed I am. I do not want this to be the normal "I am thankful for..." speech or the mundane "my resolutions are...", but it may seem that way at some points. I know that I am not the same person I was at this point last year. Changes and growth have taken place and I know that my life is not headed in the direction that I thought it was a year ago. This may seem to be slightly negative, but it truly is not. I know that God is really working in my life and teaching me things that I never expected. Over the break my family and I have looked at old pictures and home movies, gradually moving into the more recent ones. It amazes me to see how much I have changed and grown spiritually, physically, and mentally. I am no longer the blue-eyed, blond hair little girl that I once was, but am a young woman coming to the realization of her own capabilities and beginning to comprehend the full potential of her own God-given talents and graces. There is a sweet promise waiting for me in the near future, one that I cannot fully grasp, but I also want to wait for the day that it is fully revealed to me. In the meantime, it is an unfinished puzzle that I must and will patiently wait for the missing pieces to come to the table. The whole picture is unclear, but I sense an adventure in the making.
So am I thankful? Yes, for everything I have been given and for everything that I am about to receive. I am also thankful for the fact that I am able to serve my Savior and to do what he asks of me...and to also have the freedom to create and dream alongside of him. What a beautiful Lord I serve and a wonderful friend I have to talk to everyday. My New Year's Promise: To Be Me! People do not deserve anything less and God certainly does not either. I have much to offer and it is time for my full potential to come out of hiding. Everyone have a wonderful New Year's, and I pray that your year has been as blessed as mine and that you may come to realize the beautiful promises God has for your life. Love in Christ.

| God is still working in this world...in ways that I still cannot fully comprehend. God amazes me with his ability to grant knowledge to those who have not seen and to give them the chance to explore how amazing and wonderful he is, and how he comes to us on our level and our understanding. Nothing great or eye-opening has happened to me-except waking up this morning-but it is happening to people I know and love. He still works on the hearts and minds of the ones who know and love him and he still wants to show more things to me. So, that little bit was from being at home and catching up with family. It is pretty cool to see how God works. I am glad to be home and since I will not be working this break, will spend the time working out, working on scholarships, and maybe spending some time with some much neglected friends. I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and will enjoy the time with family and friends. Love in Christ. | | |
| And the rambling begins...
I want to love. More than just a simple smile or gentle hug, but with my heart, mind, and soul. I want to fall in love with people. Find the good things about them and let them know what those things are. This is more than just a romantic love, I want to love them beyond that. I love my God so much, what is it that holds me back from loving others in the same manner. To desire a relationship with people beyond anything I can ever imagine. God has granted me a relationship with him that brings me more joy and happiness than can ever be expressed, why is it that I can express my emotions for others in such accurate ways. There should be no words to describe a relationship with another human being. One should become dumbfounded when they are truly asked how they feel about others. I desire this. To become speechless and to let others know that they amaze me. Is it my own insecurity that forces me to hold back these feelings. Why do I not want people to know how awesome they truly are and how much they mean to me.
God grant me the strength and the heart to become speechless. To not be able to completely express what a person means to me. But at the same time, do not let me become unaware of their need to know my pathetic attempts to fully express this love. They will hopefully see past the simple words and inaccurate phrases to notice that I am only attempting to express a fraction of the true feelings I have for them. More than ever, dwell in my life so that others might be able to catch a glimpse of your love for them in me.
End of ramblings...for now...

| Oh, Lord I give you all I have
but it seems so little
when you have given me so much
*God I come with nothing I feel is usable
I come to you with empty hands
and a heart that's fragile (broken actually)
you come to me with a wealth of love
*Do I deserve this love, this joy
Oh Lord your love
is new with every morning
your faithfulness gets me through night
*Even the long ones
you bid me come
you know that I am weary (can I keep going)
your yoke is easy and your burden is light
*Can you still trust me?
and now I sing you songs of praise (is it ever enough)
but your greatness is beyond me
I know I cannot comprehend (help me to see)
How you ancient of days
will stoop yourself to call me
to be your son (and daughter) to be your friend
*My best friend and true love
I only wish these were all my words. They explain my feelings; the sadness, joy, sorrow, peace, love, and countless more. The spirit comes to me and I invite it in...my only wish is that others can understand and begin to comprehend how he wants to enter into them...No matter the brokeness, the pain, the sorrow...he is waiting...oh so patiently and preparing those for ministry...and showing them how creative they are...to serve him.
"But rise and stand on your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of the things which you have seen and of the things which I will yet reveal to you"-Acts 26:16
