What up, bloggers...its been a long time! I don't really have a good excuse so I'll get right to what I have to say...

So I feel like these posts can super 'cliche' and I don't want that. I would rather people be able to watch me live out my relationship with God than me just flaunting it all over the Internet. Now don't get me wrong, there is something so great about sharing what the Lord has put on your heart. All I'm saying is that I dont want these posts to be a bunch of words. I want my life to reflect what I say.

Mmk now that I got that off my chest...where to begin!? Lately, I have really been studying romans 12. it is such a common, simple passage at first. But when you really READ it...oh no.

"So here's what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life-your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life-and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don't become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you."

Just read it a couple times. Of course it sounds so easy, sure God I'll give you life...I'll be different than the world. But then things don't go the way you had planned and we start to have a spazz attack. I don't know about you, but I know this is a huge thing for me. I have this idea and I want things to go that way. But what He's showing me is that...I'm stupid (not literally haha but you get the idea). I really have no clue what's in store for me when I wake up tomorrow so who do I think I am trying to figure everything out!? But if I would just embrace Jesus and His goodness, I wouldn't have to worry about tomorrow. Because I'd have a faith in His plan that is greater than worry.

So I'm sorry this got kinda long and a little preachy. But I had to share what was on my heart..if it helps no one else, I know I got something:)
