Nice huh? I don't usually post on the weekends and even as I write this I have no idea where it will go I just found myself in my room with some free time(Shocking I know!) and decided to spend a few minutes with this here blog.
So it has beed a busy,stressful,weird week but, I have finally, by the grace of God, made it out of the awful funk that consumed me this week. I have never in my life been in that kind of funk for en entire school week! It was terrible but, I am moving on now.
So, last night was Friday night, and in my little small town world that means Friday Night Football (we won our game:) Love my Jackets) and a rousing good time socializing, dancing to the bands music, and pulling my own hair out. Yes, it is a blast thanks for asking! I seriously had the best night and on top of that my best friend came home from college for the weekend and did I mention we dominated last night? Seriously I look around at my life a feel truly blessed! Funk or no funk my God loves me and has blessed me beyond belief...That radical thought gets me all choked up I wont lie.(Maybe that makes me an emotional girl, whatever.) I deserve none of this, what I deserve is to spend an eternity in a terrible place, miserable but, because my Savior loves me I not only get to spend my eternity with him in paradise but, I also have a pretty great life here on earth. That is insane to me. It's like the Parable of the Lost Son in Matthew. This kids dad gave him everything he ever desired and still the kid wanted more so he took his enheritance and left his father's house to find his own way. Well that so obviously did not work for him and he was soon crawling back to his father with nothing. Now if I was that father my son would have to just keep on walking but, this father ran out to meet his son, clothed him in his best robes, served him a feast, and welcomed him back. He even rejoiced that his lost son had returned! Crazy right? Well it's this kind of crazy love that our heavenly father feels for us! Just in case you didn't catch that let me repeat it- Our heavenly father died for us and we forsake him everyday and still he welcomes us back to him with open arms! If that doesnt excite you I have no idea what will. In return all God asks from us is our lives, which to me, seems like a pretty small price to live forever in paradise with the God of the Universe. I'm willing and waiting on him. I have given my life to him and his will, and I wont lie it's kinda scary but, if our God is with us what do we have to fear? Have you given it all to him?
