Here is where it begins....

I guess this is just an intro post. This way i actually have something on this blog. And my internet at home shuts off in 30 min so i can't put everything here that i want to.

God is great right? Well. Until we get mad. Then we forget that. Sound familiar? Does for me. Sometimes i have been overlooking the greatness of God and looking at my own selfishness and what i can never be. I should be happy and joyous around the clock because He sent His Son to save me. What else could I want?

Speaking of the goodness of God, look around you? Look at everything you have even though it may seem like you have nothing. EVERYTHING you have is from Him. The world tells you that you have to work and do stuff to get to heaven and such. But EVERTHING is a gift from the Big Man upstairs. I have been under appreciating a lot of things lately. Especially my friends. Of all things right? Yeah, that is what i thought too. But i have been over looking them. They have my back in every struggle i am in and i don't do nearly enough to thank them or God. And how do i repay them? I always feel like i can never do enough for my friends to ever be close enough to match what they do for me. Maybe that is my problem. I feel like i just am repaying people. I hear that a lot and should think about it more. But it isn't like i am doing it for that reason only! I love to help people. It makes me happier than anything else. Maybe it is the fact that i want people to depend on me. But is that just my selfishness speaking out again? I don't know, but I pray that God will show me.

  1. Even though we are saved through grace it's still necessary to feel pain and have your heart hurt for things, that's generally what happens when you care strongly about something, and that's what inspires us to change the world! :D
