I hung out with one of the dearest people in my life on Friday night. She is truly one of the most inspiring individuals I know. Her walk with Christ, her true friendship, and her love for the simple this is something I have always admired. She has helped me through many things since knowing her and she has truly been a blessing to my life and to the many others she has had contact with. She moved to Boulder, Colorado on Saturday for the summer. I know God will use her to do great things and to set a path for herself.
Every time I hang out with her I always feel inspired, refreshed, as if God himself has met with me that day. I know that sounds like a lot and when she reads this, which I found out the other day she did, she will most likely not understand why I am writing this about her. Hence, the reason I am.
I have been learning in the past few weeks to not take people for granted, to appreciate your time with them, to stop the superficiality in all relationships and start caring for others on a level that is in no way earthly. I have realized that I have a deep passion for youth programs. I want to help and strive for better. I want to see God glorified and God alone. I want to have relationships with friends that are Holy and Just. I want to be a friend that others know they can always come to no matter what. I want to be a wife to someone who is my best friend first and husband second. I want others to see God in me. I want to help inspire my children to be imitators of Christ and love others and be compassionate. I want my life to be a reflection of the Love I have been shown. I strive for that. I fail at that. I ask your help in keeping me accountable.
In Santus Real's song "Whatever You're Doing" I have found a song that I feel completely resounds with me. It sums up how I feel in starting anew and letting God take full control of everything, the way it should have been from the start. It's a tough road and chaotic, yet Peaceful. Here's the song. It says,
It's time for healing time to move on
It's time to fix what's been broken too long
Time to make right what has been wrong
It's time to find my way to where I belong
There's a wave that's crashing over me
And all I can do is surrender
(Chorus)
Whatever You're doing inside of me
It feels like chaos but somehow there's peace
It's hard to surrender to what I can't see
but I'm giving in to something Heavenly
Time for a milestone
Time to begin again
Reevaluate who I really am
Am I doing everything to follow Your will
Or just climbing aimlessly over these hills
So show me what it is You want from me
I give everything I surrender...
To...
(Chorus)
Time to face up
Clean this old house
Time to breathe in and let everything out
That I've wanted to say for so many years
Time to release all my held back tears
Whatever You're doing inside of me
It feels like chaos but I believe
You're up to something bigger than me
Larger than life something Heavenly
Whatever You're doing inside of me
It feels like chaos but now I can see
This *is* something bigger than me
Larger than life something Heavenly
Something Heavenly
It's time to face up
Clean this old house
Time *to* breathe in and let everything out"
It's time to fix what's been broken too long
Time to make right what has been wrong
It's time to find my way to where I belong
There's a wave that's crashing over me
And all I can do is surrender
(Chorus)
Whatever You're doing inside of me
It feels like chaos but somehow there's peace
It's hard to surrender to what I can't see
but I'm giving in to something Heavenly
Time for a milestone
Time to begin again
Reevaluate who I really am
Am I doing everything to follow Your will
Or just climbing aimlessly over these hills
So show me what it is You want from me
I give everything I surrender...
To...
(Chorus)
Time to face up
Clean this old house
Time to breathe in and let everything out
That I've wanted to say for so many years
Time to release all my held back tears
Whatever You're doing inside of me
It feels like chaos but I believe
You're up to something bigger than me
Larger than life something Heavenly
Whatever You're doing inside of me
It feels like chaos but now I can see
This *is* something bigger than me
Larger than life something Heavenly
Something Heavenly
It's time to face up
Clean this old house
Time *to* breathe in and let everything out"
Please Glorify God first. Pray for acceptance in the trials, and even in the peaceful times. Live life to Glorify Him, the one who created you, created your life path, created you to do greater things than sit on your hands. Take on this mentality, "May the vision of You be the death of me."
