letting go.

There have been recent moments of pause in my day, moments of wondering, asking, seeking knowledge. The love given to me from my Creator surpasses all other love needed. In order for one to find love, one must go to the Source of love.

The last six months have been me gasping for breath and God keeping me from drowning in myself. Its so easy to be selfish, to forget your purpose and your redemption. I don't want a life of missed love. I want perfect love, whole heart overflowing love. how do i get this...?

God saved me. And just because people choose not to believe in Him doesn't change the reality of who He is. God is. "For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities--His eternal power and divine nature--have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that men are without excuse." Romans 1:20

Being a Christian doesn't mean you shove God down peoples throats or condemn them for their unbelief, it means shining the Light given to you, it means loving as God has loved you, knowing the Word and feeding it to people by how you live your life.

i need Jesus every. single. day. without Him, i fail.

Picasso once said, "good taste is the enemy of great art", which i think is very true. Good taste has all to do about being cultured and being refined. If art has to do with anything, it has to do with being human. Sometimes i find it hard to pray, you try to pray and try to impress God with all the right words, but I'm just not that sure if God is all that concerned with being entertained. I think that's a human thing. I just don't think its an easy thing to impress God Almighty. And I think we often forget that, you don't have to impress Him, because He's already knocked out about you. and if He was cultured, if He was as civilized as most christian people wish He was, He would be useless to Christianity... God is a wild Man. God takes the junk of our lives and He makes the greatest art in the world out of it...

"For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things." (romans 11:36)
