I'm learning. Every day.
No, I'm not forced to go to school on weekends. (I'mnoteveninschoolatthemoment)
I'm still learning though...
Trying to actually enjoy life, not just "get through it", when things are not so great.
My life won't change until I let Him change it.
I'm done missing the awesome moments because I'm too stressed about something else.
I'm tired of being just o k a y.
I GIVE UP on giving up.

Wondering...Wandering...
Why, am I hurting?
What did I do wrong?
When is this going to end?
Where do I go from here?
What did I do wrong?
When is this going to end?
Where do I go from here?
"A man's steps are directed by the Lord. How then can anyone understand his own way?" Proverbs 20:24
God knows.
And that gives me peace.

Ten million people.
"Sometimes my life it feels so trivial,
Immersed in the greatness of space.
Yet somehow you still find the time for me,
It's then You show me Your love."
"Sea of Faces" - Kutless
Jesus has the whole world.
The world filled with millions of people. Everyone with their own stories, everyone with their own problems, their own life.
He takes care of ALL of them. Every single one.
I am "just one" person out of the millions.
But to Him, I am precious. He loves me, and treasures me.
Christ has this entire world to take care of, yet He still finds the time for me...ME!
He has time...and not just a second, or a minute, or an hour.
Not just some time to spare...Quality time.
He wants to spend forever with me.
He is ALWAYS there for me. All the time, no exceptions.
Because I matter to Him. He DIED for me. And He loves, and cares about me.
Humans don't have the world to take care of...(though sometimes we feel like we do)
But still we say we're "too busy" to do something quite often. Too often.
"Too busy" to read God's Word.
"Too busy" to help someone out.
"Too busy" to be there for a friend.
"Too busy" to pray everyday.
Etc.
Jesus is never too busy for you. Or me. Or anyone.
How great is that??
Make more time for Jesus. (:

Because You were forsaken.
Forgiveness: (noun)
1. the act of pardoning somebody for a mistake or wrongdoing
We're called to forgive others everyday of our lives.
The Bible says to forgive and you will be forgiven. (Luke 2:36)
Sometimes, forgiving others can be easy.
But what if someone never apologized?
Maybe they have hurt you badly. Or have no idea they've done anything. Or they just aren't sorry at all...
Do you still have to forgive them?
It'd be easy to say no, because they haven't apologized.
The answer though is YES, we should forgive those who have wronged us,
even if they haven't asked for forgiveness.
If we do not forgive others, we will not be forgiven ourselves. (Matthew 6:14-15)
We are also told to love our enemies. And love keeps no record of wrongs.
(1 Corinthians 13:5b)
Truly love one another and fully forgive. Don't just say "I forgive you", but mean it 100%.
I'm writing all this because I'm working on forgiveness myself, and this is just what's been on my mind.

Welcome to my blog...
Oh hey, I started a blog.
I'm not really sure what I'll write about just yet. But I guess we'll see :)
The end.
(for now)
