I read this in a book. It is called Sun Stand Still by Steven Furtick. If you are looking to grow more audacious in your faith in God I challenge you to read it.

"Here is another reason you've got to learn to cling to the goodness of God: sometimes he pressures of your daily stuggles can push your belief system beneath the surface. Immediate pain and struggles can color the lens through which we view all of God's past, present, and future activities in our lives. We can easily lose track of the truth. And in the emotional haze, it doesn't take long for us to start thinking that the goodness of God is a lie.
But look back at your life. Remember. No matter what you've been through or are going to go through now, God has been good to you. You're here. You're alive. You're breathing. he has let you see another day. And he has brought you to this page with a sincere desire that you will experience more of him.
He has been good to you. And when you remember that fact, it changes the way you see your challenges. David said it like this:
'Praise the Lord, O my soul'
And forget not all your benefits-
who forgives all your sins
and heals all your diseases,
who redeems your life from the pit
and crowns you with love and compassion.' ~psalm 103:2-4 "

All About Us~He is We

Take my hand, I’ll teach you to dance.
I’ll spin you around, won’t let you fall down.
Would you let me lead, you can step on my feet.
Give it a try, it’ll be alright.



The room’s hush, hush,
And now’s our moment.
Take it in feel it all and hold it.
Eyes on you, eyes on me.
We’re doing this right.

Cause lovers dance when they’re feeling in love.
Spotlight shinning, it’s all about us.
It’s oh, oh, oh, oh, all about uh, uh, uh, uh, us.
And every heart in the room will melt,
This is a feeling I’ve never felt but,
It’s oh, oh, all about us.

Suddenly, I’m feeling brave.
Don’t know what’s got into me,
Why I feel this way.
Can we dance, real slow?
Can I hold you, real close?

The room’s hush, hush,
And now’s our moment.
Take it in feel it all and hold it.
Eyes on you, eyes on me.
We’re doing this right.

Cause lovers dance when they’re feeling in love.
Spotlight shinning, it’s all about us.
It’s oh, oh, oh, oh, all about uh, uh, uh, uh, us.
And every heart in the room will melt,
This is a feeling I’ve never felt but,
It’s oh, oh, all about us.

Do you hear that love?
They’re playing our song.
Do you think we’re ready?
Oh I’m really feeling it.
Do you hear that love?
Do you hear that love?

Do you hear that love?
They’re playing our song.
Do you think we’re ready yet?
Love I’m really feeling it.
Do you hear that love?
Do you hear that love?

Do you hear that love?
They’re playing our song.
Do you think we’re ready yet?
Love I’m really feeling it.
Do you hear that love?
Do you hear that love?

Lovers dance when they’re feeling in love.
Spotlight shinning, it’s all about us.
It’s all, all, all, all.
Every heart in the room will melt,
This is a feeling I’ve never felt, but
It’s all, all about us.

Cause lovers dance when they’re feeling in love.
Spotlight shinning, it’s all about us.
It’s oh, oh, oh, oh, all about uh, uh, uh, uh, us.
(hey-ey hey)
And every heart in the room will melt,
This is a feeling I’ve never felt but,
It’s oh, oh, all,
It’s all about us.

Maybe One day...

So I don't even know if anyone reads this blog anymore...Honestly I don't even know why it still exists. I've been so unfaithful in writing on here at least once a week so its pretty much a fail.

Anyways, I've always loved writing though I never was very talented at it. I have kept a journal from time to time and usually it takes over a year or two just to complete one. Going back and rereading the entries from my past I have to admit is quite boring. I was pretty much a lousy story teller. I have friends that write in journals religiously, not like its their god or anything but they do have dedication. I suppose that was something I always lacked. I never had a drive to write like that, even if I really enjoyed it. Sometimes its good to be able to express your emotions in that way. Uncensored, full of raw emotion. Pouring your heart out hoping someone one day may care about it. Although, if I were to be truthful, I would never in a million years want anyone to read one of those journals. Perhaps one day I'll get rid of them instead of wasting space in my closet. Maybe I'll have the power to let go of the past and move on to the future....maybe one day...

life...

Where to even being...

Sometimes life is a breeze...sometimes it slinks by torturously slow and sometimes it knocks you down without a second glance or offer to help you back up again. Stuff happens that you'd never thought would...and everything ends up crashing down on you. Events in life that rock you to your core. Thinking that you could never possibly recover from and giving up sounds like the only way of relief. But you DO end up holding on...if for only a moment or hour or day...And you get through whatever it was that sent you into such a dark place. Realizing that even though something is super challenging in the moment it is actually brighter on the other side. Those are good things. Trials that help to shape us into people who are more mature, wise, and perserverent. Good people....better people..if only you can manage to HOLD ON!

PUDDLE JUMPING!!!

There's nothing like being a kid again...if just for a moment. For the past week or so its been raining so I finally decided to go have a little fun. Sadly I didn't have the "proper" rain clothes on so momzy was like...WHY?! (Apparently Uggs and purple skinny jeans aren't puddle jumping clothes.) But all in all, I am glad I did it.

So I am not really a country fan but this doesn't sound too country so I like it :] Been stuck in my head all day so I thought I'd share it.

WOW

Sorry people that I've neglected to actually write on here anymore...But its not like this is a very "popular" blog so I am not to worried that someone is freaking out. If that even makes sense?The reason for not writing can mostly be blamed on the fact that the pull of Facebook is pretty strong. And it can be just plain easier on me to just update a status here and there...and even then I rarely post one. You'd think that since I love writing I would be better at this but its not really. So anyways...That's why. God bless!
