This always seems to happen to me. I have a good God time that I wanna share. Every single time it's late at night. It's when I just wanna go to bed, but can't sleep until I get all my thoughts off my brain. That's when I write. I haven't blogged in quite some time. I've taken to journaling more recently, but wanted to blog tonight. If you don't want to read a lot of rambling just stop reading now. My brain tends to be a mess of a few different things, never the same one thing. So here it goes.
My life's been pretty crazy in the last few months. Tons of changes have been going on in my life. I've started college, I moved to the cities (I'll be honest, I've always said I would never in my life live in the cities, I'm a proud country girl), I've gone from working roughly 6 out of the 7 days down to just the weekends, I've been meeting lots of new and wonderful people, I've started going to a new church, I started dating a wonderful, Godly man, and realized some new dreams of my own. It's been a little stressful at times, but I wouldn't change it for anything. I've learned a lot in the last few months about God, people, and myself. This knowledge is something I don't ever want to forget or lose. It's something that I want to forever have in my mind.
Tonight I was driving home. I plugged in my iPod and put it on shuffle. I started to drown out the music and started to think about some things that have happened to me in the past few years. I've realized just how much I've gone through. Things that if I hadn't had God right there with me, I don't know how I would've made it. I don't wanna go into detail about all that. But then a new song started up and I started to really listen to this one. I instantly broke into tears as What Love is This by Kari Jobe was playing. The song basically talks about how great God's love is for us and coming to a realization that God is enough, always. No matter what we're facing or going through, God is big enough. There's nothing that God can't handle. He's bigger than our circumstances. He's also enough. All too many times, we as humans go looking to things of this world to fulfill this...space in our hearts that only God can fill. Nothing this world has to offer can be enough to fill that space. Only God can. Let's be honest, out of everything in this world the only thing you REALLY need is God. Where would you be without Him, honestly?
I guess with the busyness of life, I've kind of forgotten just how much love God has for me. And tonight I was reminded of how much God loves me. How I can't even begin to comprehend His love for me. Just another sinful human. Yet, He loves me. He gave His Son to die for me, for my sins. His Son loved me so much, He was WILLING to die for me and my sins. That's the greatest love there is.
Anyway, I think I've emptied my brain for tonight.
