After thinking about this today, I think its pretty safe to say that...
We are hopeless without Jesus.
There is NOTHING that satisfies like He does. Every need of your heart and soul and mind is met by His perfect truth and grace.
It's ridiculous how much we avoid Him and run from Him and try to do things on our own. Every time it ends in exhaustion, not always failure because God is so good that He makes good out of anything. But it drains us and leaves us frail and empty, striving for more. My heart longs for more of Jesus, yet I am so resistent to abide in Him.
As soon as I spend time with the Lord, listening to Him and believing Him, things begin to make sense and fall in line and burdens begin to roll off me. It's CRAZY how He works, it truly is.
It's CRAZY that we're in communication with the Creator of the Universe and that He is IN LOVE WITH US.
If you don't know the Lord and have never spent time with Him, I beg you to do so. Even if you think you got your life figured out. Even if you're happy......you've never known what life can be if you haven't met the one who knows exactly what you need and how those needs can be met.
Meet your Maker.

2 Thessalonians
It's been a while.
2 Thessalonians 3:5
"Now may the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God and into the patience of Christ" (NKJV)
"May the Lord direct your hearts into God's love and Christ's perseverance" (NIV)
"May the Master take you by hand and lead you along the path of God's love and Christ's endurance" (Message)
"May the Lord lead your hearts into a full understanding and expression of the love of God and the patient endurance that comes from Christ" (NLT)
No matter how you say it, this brings me so much peace!! Because....it is what I need to be free and to live with all the life that God has given me and will continue to give me.
This is a season of breaking free and letting the Lord rule my heart which will guide me. It's time to stop thinking so much and dive in.
Thank you Jesus for starting to pry my fingers off of the control I've been holding on to for my whole life. Thank You for Your patience and Your love and Your peace and Your love that just keeps getting better and better as I see more of it. Thank You for adventure and for life and for my future husband who loves You so much and shows me these things daily.
I love You. It feels good to be back on here.
