(no subject)
I was reading my posts on my myspace page and they are so HS-inspired its awesome. I read some of the things I wrote and I was like, I wrote that?! Here is an excerpt I like...
----
One of my traits that used to damage me the most in my past is the fact that I dont really care very much about myself. NOw that Im in Christ, I throw myself utterly to the wind and just do whatever He wants me to do (in most respects). Of course there are areas I struggle in; but its funny how your most hated faults when youre the walking dead end up being your most prized treasures through Jesus Christ, the name above all others.
I dont think Ive ever felt such a strange mix of utter frustration, complete triumph, insane hilarity, and trace amount of pain at the same time. Completely crazy. I want to laugh, pull all my hair out and praise God at the same time.

Yeah the bold (second) paragraph definitely applies right now. God is so good. SO good. SOO good.
He has the most awesome twist endings. He is the Master architect at weaving together people, places, events, and causing something big to happen. He knows how to keep my attention. He knows how to keep me interested and on my toes. He knows how to make me grow and make me stretch to where He is. I can never figure Him out. My intelligence is foolishness to Him. Honey, I gave you that to figure out the earthly stuff, dont even try to use that on Me. God is so awesome! He has ALL the glory.
And I try to figure Him out, and every time I ask Him to know more of who He is, He shows me a different side and Im so amazed and fall more in love, inextricably and more deeply connected to Him every time. He is the ultimate risk-taker, He sits on the throne and nothing can even stand before Him, He is upright and unmovable. When He moves and when He acts, nohing can stop Him. Hes amazing. Hes Jehovah, the God of all heaven and earth, pure love, light, truth, life and spirit. Nothing can comprehend Him or overcome Him....
