Hello World Hello All
This supposed life of mine, seems to be upside down. But is that such a bad thing?
My life is not currently in ruins. But would that be so bad? People always say: why question the obstacles God gives you when you don’t question the blessings. Still, I don’t think my heart believes it. Much less, does my mind understand it. What’s more, maybe we should be questioning the blessings. Not in any other sense than asking God what is the purpose (with the full intention of living a life truly for Him).
I’m not sure, these thoughts are simply the byproduct of writing this post. What I mean when I say my world is upside down is I’m so lost. I feel like my perspective is just so, not right. Maybe this is a good sign though, Maybe this time is meant to help me focus on Him versus the world. All I know for sure is, I can’t do this.
I need you, God.
God is the most epicly awesomely divinely amazingly ultimate creatively aesthetic whatnot and more.. Scientist
And don’t you ever forget it
Simple as that
Obedience before understanding. Simple as that; understanding is nice but not necessary.
If you’ve ever struggled to understand the idea of predestination versus free will (or any other equally complicated topic), trust me, you’re not alone.
No matter how many different ways I approach this, no matter how many different people I talk to, no matter how many different theories I hear, I still wrestle with the two ideas simply existing. It’s a never ending discussion.
However, one thought has given me peace on the subject. God is great. He and everything He is (including His creation) is beyond understanding. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t strive to understand. But that does mean predestination and free will can exist in a supernatural creation like ours.
Now go on, use all your energy to love God. Even though that means wanting to understand Him (and obviously His love). Because truth be told, that’s never going to happen
I wish my normal speech came out as poetry; everything I said would be beautiful despite its complexity.
There are so many things going on at once in my life right now: I’m starting to see that this is the wake up call. I’m pushing him further and further down my list of priorities when I should be doing the exact opposite. Oh the joys of trial
Hm, the idea of living simply to let others simply live is beautiful. Don’t you think?
Thank you for the food we eat
Thank you for the birds that sing
Thank you god for everything
We are all infected and impure with sin. When we display our righteous deeds, they are nothing but filthy rags. Like autumn leaves, we wither and fall, and our sins sweep us away like the wind.
Isaiah 64:6
kind of a rude awakening, but a necessary one.
This is lame, for some reason I can’t reply (but to reply to below), that’s the point. Nothing Caused God, He was the original cause. Because everything has to start somewhere, and, well, Everything had to start somewhere. (:
To all the non-believers out there, I have a question for you: is not everything cause and effect? Then what (or rather who) was the original cause?
From someone who loves Jesus
I want to shine for you, God. Help me shine, for you.
Halfway through the school year, or even halfway through my life.. I don’t want to look back and realize I forgot about you - you who got me this far. Help me love you with all I am.
