Nowadays

Today is just such a great day.

I woke up late and was a little late to work. But driving in the snow with my new front studded tires is amazing. It makes me feel safe and it was worth the headache yesterday!

I paid to change my oil as well and it just feels good to have my car shut up about it! hahaha…everytime I turned on my car it told me “change oil soon.” Annoying! like I didn’t know that! I just didn’t want to spend so much money at it. I bought antifreeze too and I should pour it in soon

I didn’t have a load of things to start with so I dinked off in myspace and for one reason or another I got to re-read my comments looking for one in specific. And then it hit me. Maybe it was in combination with my coffee drinking but either way it turned out like this. I am so happy and excited in the moment.

Last night I had a hard time letting Chris go. It wasn’t a huge deal a couple of nights ago but it was this time. Anyway, on the phone he was a great encouragement to continue to pursue God’s way in my attitude and mentality. I  knew so and I just wanted him to shut up about it, just like my car. But I decided to pray in the spirit. It helped a ton. And I finished my night, there, wrapped up in my blankets, with victory.

Chris said: “maybe God just made you with that weakness with a purpose.”

Me:”yeah? what kind of purpose can something like this be??!”

Chris:”just bring it to his feet.”

So I did and it just gave the world a completely different look! I love it.

This morning, while re-reading my comments I realized, once again, of the beauty in these people! They are so beautiful inside and out and somehow my heart aches for all of those who are not bringing their lives to the feet of Jesus. It makes me want to cry when I think of Jared, Steve, Jacqulyn, etc. All these people who are living for God with all they got…I don’t know why, I get so excited so it makes me want to cry!

There are so many beautiful people around me. I know I will not really love like God loves us but he is working me through it. It is painful some time. But after swallowing the bitter everything turns out so much better.

My heart praises God for his goodness and love. His mercy strengthens my weaknesses and his love gives me direccion more than I thought!
