So often I find myself pulled in a million directions, wanting to try and do so many things. Where do I start to understand where im suppose to be going? There’s so many plans, responsibilities, so many dreams, so many possibilities…
At times I can definitely lose myself in that. Wondering where I could possibly begin, but too afraid to actually jump in. I know God has a plan, a purpose for me but I guess too often I try to take control and do it on my own. im done trying to do that…it just doesn’t work. I guess what ive been reminded of these past couple days, is to just stop looking everywhere else (the answers aren’t there). ALL I have to do is keep my eyes on God and what He asks of me, and everything else will work out on its own. Some might say, “Easier said then done”…true, but there is so much freedom in realizing that it’ll be okay. No matter what road I do eventually take, it’s the road im meant to be on. That those dreams and those hopes that right now I think that I want, will only be a fraction of the joy that will come from just following and seeking the true path that Christ has for me. It’ll be sweet!!! Well im off to bed, chat with you soon, ciao.

Take This Life
Written by Shawn McDonald and Chris Stevens
As I’m standing here, staring into the mirror
See the figure of a man trying to take a stand
And live for something more
Integrity is what I need and honor to my soul I feed
To give it up, pack it in, getting rid of all my sin that’s weighing me down
Won’t You come and fill
I want You to come and make me more real
Take this life, won’t You change this life
Come and make me whole
Won’t You take this life, won’t You change this life
Come and make me whole
In my pursuit of what is real
My heart is longing with a need to feel my soul come alive
I trudge and I step through the height and the death
Of a long narrow as I’m growing old
