faithfulness

i am writing a retraction to my last post.  i am not optimistic.  i have been given the gift of faith.  and today, my faith in Him and His will and His timing returned to me a blessing.  a friend.  a really good friend.  a best friend?  we shall see. 
i'm still waiting.  but this time, waiting is a joint effort.  waiting to hear what He has to say about our future.  what will it look like?  only He knows.  pray that we seek Him first. 

James 1: 5-6a "But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.  But he must ask in faith without any doubting..."

You have been faithful until now.  I refuse to doubt that you will continue to be faithful.  You are faithfulness.  And you bless those who trust You.  Show me the blessings of seeking and trusting You.

optimism

sometimes being an eternal optimist has disadvantages.
that doesn't mean the eternal optimist needs to lower their standards.
it means they must learn to accept things as they are. 
not try to make them into what they could have been.

but optimism does have it's perks. 
happiness isn't challenged unless something doesn't go the best way. 
and then, usually, you can see something good in it.

do you see something good in it?
no.  not today.

tomorrow.  you will see something good in it tomorrow.


tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it, says optimist.
no mistakes in it yet, says reality

thanks reality.  glad i can accommodate you when you come to visit. enjoy your stay.  check out is at 10.

on my knees or on my face

Air is dry, the sun is gone
When I breathe, I breate alone
Ten times a day I cry
Just to prove that I'm alive
Oh, that I'm alive

I have tried to be the queen
I have tried most everything
Leads me to the same place
On my knees or on my face
On my knees or on my face

Nations fall when You speak
And You have spoken over me
I am tired of giving in so easily

The way You keep on loving me
Is changing everything I see
It's a great big mystery

The fingers on my weathered bow
Are giving out and letting go
I need You now to take me in
I cannot fight alone again
Can't fight alone again

You are the mystery

find the things they say just can't be found

sometimes i wish i could write songs.  i define my life in songs, but they're someone else's words. 


Too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find there way
Into my day to day scene
I'll be under the impression
I was somewhere in between


"and now i see you
 through helpless blurry eyes
 i hope they say what i want them to
 my words never do"

"did i say you're awsome? cuz you are"

i will be a teenager for a mere 24 more hours.  here are some thoughts that probably no one will read...

i have had this xanga for almost 6 years. i can't get rid of it.
i'm feeling nostalgic.  that feeling is usually chased away by tears.
this is the weirdest summer i've ever had.  it's felt more like a school year than this past school year did.
someday i'm going to write a book about my family. 
i wish i had kept a journal for the past 3 years. 
i want to push fast forward... again.  but that never turns out well.
i plan everything.  things rarely ever go exactly how i plan.  that's usually a good thing.
i hope it rains again soon.
i get to go to the beach in a week :)
laughing always makes me feel better.  i'm certain that most times making people laugh shows them love.
every birthday and new years i resolve to start running.  it has yet to happen.
i have yet to experience my "disney moment." disney may be unrealistic and expensive, but disney moments are priceless. 
i know this sounds like disney, but i know my biggest dreams will come true.  not knowing the when and how makes me anxious. 
i want to be laid back and spontaneous.  i'm afraid of becoming kate gosselin. 
i really hope no one ever reads this.... it's on xanga so the likelihood of this is pretty good. 
i like page breaks.  i wish real life had them.
