senior me

it's been a while. again.
it's week two of my senior year.

i might lose my thoughts so i'm going to go straight into it.

it was never about us.
it's not about us doing...us trying to feel, to get close to God.
it's about our hearts..the true desires of our hearts, souls, and minds...and God does the rest.
He is always at work. He will do the work.

today, my class drilled into my head that in our society, wealth = health.
how terribly sad, yet how terribly true.
social inequalities = health inequalities.
that is why there is a heaven ya'll.
that is why there is a Savior ya'll.

Jesus, You truly are our only Hope.
Thank You.

without faith, it is impossible to please God.
even if you think it's ridiculous, or you have no clue what's going to happen...or have no sense of right or wrong or whatever, if you place your faith in God..He looks at the heart...and always works for the good of those who love Him.
it's not having faith in your decision, but having faith in God with whatever decision...because your faith in Him surpasses any decision. your decision to place your faith in Him is the ultimate decision...and it's what He wants...to always activate and practice and remember our faith.

He tells us to rejoice because we really do have every reason to rejoice, always.
even when the world sucks and will continue to suck.
because that's exactly why He died for us. so we can rejoice even in these hard times, because He is our Joy..He is our Hope.
He tells us to ask as if we have received...because we have received already. if we have Jesus, we have everything. if we have faith, God will always provide in His perfect timing. His timing is truly perfect, and no one knows but Him.
so again, have faith in Him.

when i say Lord, i want to be like you.
He says.....you already are.
when i say Lord, make me holy. i want to be holy.
He says, ...you already are.
when i say Lord, help me, guide me.
He says.....i'm here. i was always here. i live in you.
when i say Lord, give me faith.
He says.....believe, and you will see...

God has already given us everything.....
everything...

oh...if we could only have faith to believe and seee.......

Jesus...i believe and want to believe and follow You all the days of my life.....

i think these were all the thoughts in my head before showering.
now, clean and fresh, i will begin my hw.

thank You, Jesus.
for my room....my fingers....my blog...my family....clean air....clean showers...clean water...

You are good.....apart from You, there is no good.
