I'm a 21 year old girl who is learning that I'm allowed to mess up. I'm allowed to make mistakes...big ones. But the most important thing that I'm learning is that I have the most precious and beautiful gift ever...and that is Christ in my heart and because of that gift I can fall down over and over again and will never be left behind and HE will always be the one to pick me up again.

cleaning
I was sitting here this afternoon and decided that I had let it go by too long and I began to clean my room. I just intended on taking 30 minutes at most and organizing a few things and then being done with it. Well after 45 minutes I was sitting in the middle of my floor looking around at the HUGE mess that I had made. I was then mad at myself for even starting the project...but knew that I would feel so much better when it was all done. So I continued to sort through tons of papers and junk that I didn't need anyway. I found myself just thinking way too much about the events of the past week and started to cry when I came across a card that a friend had sent me last semester and inside it there was a little card with a message on it that read "All your tomorrows are in God's hands" then the verse Philippians 1:6 was there "He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion." This past week I have been so upset and so distraught about what had happened in my life, and wondering why god would allow this all to be taken from me...then I read this verse. This means that God didn't want that person as a part of my future. God didn't want that person as a part of the "good work" that he had in mind. I will be complete eventually...but that is only in God's time...not mine.
