The Dance of You and God





So, this is a song I wrote yesterday...It's called "Know More." (Actually, during the recording, I felt an ant climb on me, and it was disgusting because it was on my neck. I did not freak out outwardly bc of the recording, but inwardly- I was thinking "Why is there a stupid ant in a tree?!")



 This is a letter I wrote on 02/19/18 as if God were telling me this. He is telling you this. Read as if He were on His knees in front of you with clasped hands and a tear-stained face.
Beloved child, the joy of My existence, 
I ask one more thing of you. 
Try to see yourself the way I, see you. 
You are beyond any fathomable explanation. 
Hear My voice- My plea, I beg you, and believe! 
What more am I to do? What will it take of Me? 
What will it take for you to accept these words into your broken, beautiful heart? 
I will do anything so you can believe that you are priceless to Me. 
I am willing to again die on a splintered, hard, heavy wooden cross 
just so you might see My crazy love for you. 
My oxygen, My garden, tell Me. 
I love you, and will forever. 
You are never too far gone, Beloved. 
Never.
-Daddy

You are accepted (Eph. 1:6)

You are the apple of His eye (Zachariah 2:8)

 You are members of God's house (Eph. 2:19)

Where Do You Find Hopiness?

        On Easter, my family from near the coast and PA came over. My brother is into photography and his wife has her own business. Nick taught me how to slow the shutter speed on my camera to remain open for 30 seconds. What happened: because it was night, there was almost no light coming from anywhere. In turn, the camera caught all light that appeared in front of it and made it into a picture format. My reaction was: No way! So, basically, it records all light and transforms it into a photo? Crazy awesomesauceumness!         Reflection: Am I happy? No. I don't mean the "of course! I have a good job, school year, friends, family, boyfriend, girlfriend, etc." I mean the "I am so filled with something so unexplainable the only way I can CONTAIN it is to SHARE it." Well, that's an oxymoron; I love those.         Do you feel something is missing from your life? Do feel like you try so hard to find your purpose but for some reason, you cannot? Althoug

Failures Or Lessons?

              Many individuals talk to themselves with a negative attitude. We tell ourselves we cannot do something so we do not disappoint ourselves when/if we fail. We live our lives afraid of failure. We have this unhealthy mindset that we are destined to fail. But we are not! IT IS OKAY TO FAIL! What? What is she saying?! What does she mean "It's okay to fail?" What I mean is this: Failure is a part of success. It is proof that you are trying. Like Thomas Edison said, "I have not failed; I have found 10,000 ways that do not work." Winston Churchill said, "Success is stumbling from failure to failure without any less enthusiasm." Failure is not falling down, but refusing to get up. Do not feel pressured to get up right away. Do not stay down for too long or you will come to use the excuse of "Can't you just love me for who I am? I am trying! Can't you see that? Why do you want me to get up right now? I need to learn!"

Irony

Wild’s Soft Persistency Amidst the summer haze, A chestnut, lone horse stands. Patiently, we wait, Until he can be saddle-broken. Yet, this horse has a spirit. Will that ever be tamed? He holds his head up high. In the slight breeze, flows his mane. Although he seems secure, He really is alone. Why can’t we understand, How much that he has grown? In body and his spirit, He has been through much. For him, it feels like everything. He doesn’t have his mother’s touch. A whinny reaches his ears. He lifts his slender head; He is about to respond, But, should he wait instead? No, he cannot wait. Mightily, he bellows. Sadly, he gets no reply; So, he returns to the shadows. His magnificence is still there. He is waiting for a chance to show, That he really can do better. But, we do not know. It has taken so much time, To try to break his spirit. Yet, the chances are so slim; He is no way near it. He’s p
