I love my life.
"Im not into Jesus because Im supposed to be, or because I grew up with Him, or because believing is a fire escape from hell. Im into Jesus because Im way over the top with Him. I love following Christ. I love the life I have with God. I love the world the way He shows it to me. I would follow Him no matter what." - Blue Like Jazz, Donald Miller.
A minute ago, I was just looking on my Facebook page. After I changed my default picture, it really just made me think of how blessed I am. I still just sometimes cant even fathom it, that I've reached this point in my life: where Im completely, & utterly happy.
Tonight at youth, we started out with a few amazing worship songs. The first one being "You are my hope". Now usually, I just cant worship to that song right ... I dont know why, but I just cant. But tonights worship was diferent than usual, in a good way of course. Or Pastor had an altar call for people he felt had given up all hope, and had no freedom. After the altar call, someone in the back of the sanctuary yelled the word: FREEEDOM! It really just kinda hit me. Like, God started replaying in my head Verge, and how He'd set me free. I guess to some extent, Id taken advantage of it and not thanked Him for my freedom. Tonight? My gosh. I just cant explain it. After being at band camp today, sweaty and tired, I told God: "You know, even though IM tired, and IM hott, and I dont feel like it: You still deserve it more than anything". So, I praised Him & man was I crying. Haha. I just still cant believe it.
I was going to start a new paragraph about the freedom I recieved at Verge, but Im going to save that for another blog ... too long :) But just know this: God is love, love has come for us all - in the words of Mark Schultz. Im extremely happy, and God is the ONLY person I have to thank for that.
Every knee shall bow, every tongue confess: God is love, love has come for us all. Every heart set free, everyone will see: that God is love, love has come for us all. - Mark Schultz.
