a say whaaaattt?!

I cannot fathom the greatest of our Lord. It seems that latley the only thing that has been keeping me going has been the love of Christ. Physically, I am not sleeping a lot meaning that I am facing a lot of potential "grumpiness", but I haven't been at all! Spiritually I am facing a critical point of breaking through temptation. Also, I am beginning another part of my life. So really, I am running on the goodness of the Lord.

So, I don't want to just write how I am doing. Instead, I want to also propose a question for you all and I hope you will take time to respond. What are you running off of? Are you running off of a worldly item such as jealousy, luck, or temptation or are you running off the greatness of our Lord Saviour?

isn't HOPE a wonderful thing?

im continually becoming frazzled over un-frazzling things. simple things from not being able to hit a certain note when i sing to complex things such as what im going to be doing with my life. both of which i am finding i have to trust that God will carry me through it, whether it be something that happens and i soon forget about to something that defines the rest of my life.

one very famous verse from the bible speaks of trusting in God and he will make your path straight.
proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the LORD with all of your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him and he will set your path straight."
what an encouraging peice of scripture to read! not only are we saving ourselves from our own foolish, sinful ways, but by doing that God will bless us by showing us HIS plan.

i know i havent posted on here in ages and truth be told, i do not have an excuse. i was finding myself in a "comfortable" state; therefor, i need not rely on others---THATS A LOT OF B.S! but, nonetheless, i have been learning a lot about myself. strengths to resist sin more than i thought i could. i have slipped a few times, but i continually feel like i am overcoming it more and more and i am so excited for the day when i can stand on top of the mountain of lies and say, "Jesus, look at what you have been able to do with a sinner like me!" im so very excited.
maybe that day can be today?

also, on another lighter news, i am slowly but surely starting up my musical-ness. instead of it being just a bedroom concert, i have posted videos and mp3's on the interweb. i am also taking vocal lessons which is helping me alot with becomming confident in playing infront of others.
well, anyways, my goal is too play some shows in may/june!

woo, well, thats a bit of my heart, so yeah :)
