"Love—the true kind of love, the kind of love that overflows inside of us because of who God is and who we are and who He has born us anew to be—ought to pervade every piece of our life."

hmmm
God loves me, why can't I just accept that....
Sometimes I feel him say it to me when I get upset about something stupid, or maybe it's something that doesn't look stupid to the world.
If I were to truly, truly embrace the fact that HE loves ME. I would live sooo much differently.
I mean pretty much my Dad made this earth, He uses it has his footstool, He goes and plays basketball with stars that are millions of times bigger than this earth, and not only does he know I exist which is pretty amazing in and of itself. But He loves me, he knows allll about me, more than any person ever has or ever will. Uh huh. Can I beat that? Don't think so. I have nothing to be upset about or worry over.
And all through out my life, He's been calling me with "I love you." Why can't people *me* just accept that?
Isaiah 66:1-2
Thus says the Lord:
“Heaven is my throne,
and the earth is my footstool;
what is the house that you would build for me,
and what is the place of my rest?
2 All these things my hand has made,
and so all these things came to be,
declares the Lord.
But this is the one to whom I will look:
he who is humble and contrite in spirit
and trembles at my word.
Dad?
I guess I grew up knowing that God was my "Father in Heaven", but for me it just has become a title something that's kinda cliche. It hits closer to home when I think of Him as my Dad. God is my Dad...haha isn't that sweet? I mean when I start out prays with "Dad..." I don't know but it just helps me to remember that He really does l.o.v.e. m.e. =).
And I'm engaged to Jesus. haha wow.
I love my life.
I mean it's so easy for me to say stuff and not really understand it. But I really think I understand this more than I did a couple years ago, grant it I have hardly scratched the surface, maybe I haven't even started to do that. But oh it will be such fun to do so. To keep growing and keep getting more and more. And to do something with what I learn, because if I don't do anything with it then it's pointless.
And I'm done rambling haha.
I really need to be defined by this =D
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus....Jesus =)
