Haha!

Now here is me goofing off with photobooth.






Maaan.

God is sooo good. But I hesitate saying this only for the complacent sense that precedes from it. Many people say this very thing, but this is the only way my over stuffed brain can describe how i feel right now without too much effort.

I'm doing good.

School is difficult. (or should I say that it is difficult for me to pay attention... it's that senior-itis) Relationships are complicated, but teach me much. Family is on my heart. Future is on my mind.

But God is proving to wake me up in a spiritual sense. Yes, even more awake than I've ever been. The kind of awake to where I really put a deep value and importance on His word. Yes, at this point I think Scripture is the most important thing in my life and I am seeking for a community of people with the same values. I've found a handful of people at the moment and they are dear to me.

And while I've understood and learned about the value of community, I've learned (or should i say re-learned) how we can't depend on man. We can't put our trust in man. He'll always let you down. That is so hard to remember.

Another thing. As I've touched on how I've grown to value the scriptures, I've learned to question everything. I challenge you to not stop there, but beyond our questions, opinions, and thoughts, it is important to search the answers out in the Holy Word.
THIS WILL BRING YOU CLOSER TO THE LORD THAN YOU REALIZE. A greater sense of who He is, fills your heart as you learn more about WHAT you believe. I've grown to hate it when people or even I proclaim something or give an opinion or even simply ask a question when there is no scripture to back it up or intention to even look in scripture about it. Or any kind of research whatsoever.

Sometimes, lately I've felt very uncomfortable. I guess that is a good place to be, but it's hard to be okay with that.
