The Story of my life as of late

So I have kind of been in a funk lately, a good funk, God's really been showing me a lot. Obviously I am not a consistent blogger. I'm not a typically verbal person.

I was able to be a part of the Community's Conference this past weekend, it was nothing short of amazing there was encouragement flowing left and right. I had a hard week following up to the conference, I felt completely... blegh! But God took advantage of me feeling empty and I left this weekend feeling so encouraged! I loved loved loved the youth discussion group, I wish I would have had the  guts to speak up then, cause I could've said so much.


I feel like what God has been opening my eyes to the fact that I have a tendency to try to get things my way, when I want them, how I want them. Obviously an issue in patience and trusting...
 Tonight I was feeling pretty low, I feel like my theme verse right now is Psalm 37:4 ( Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart)


You know I wonder, why me, why now, life should be such a breeze... not. I love what God is showing me and I am so entirely grateful.

I wrote this tonight, It's been what i ave been feeling over the last few weeks, I am realizing how beautiful God really is and I am so  amazed!


Wanting, Longing, Searching for you,
Hoping, Holding, Waiting on you,
Asking, Wondering, God are you there?
I'm needing you now.


Praying, Seeking, Knowing you're there
Looking, Searching, Awaiting to hear you
Knowing, Understanding you know what I need
You hear my cries

You say, "Sweet child of mine,
I hear your pleas,Reach out your hand, I am here"
Don't fret, Stand Strong, I've been here all along
My love I am here for you, No matter what,
Look for my face, Trust in my will for your life
It may not be clear, but believe and receive what I have for you now."

Laughing, rejoicing believing it's true
Always, forever, knowing it's You
Beautiful, Wonderful, Awestruck by You
Father, I'm open, I'm standing for you!


Faithful, Devoted, Unfailing, so true!
Trusting, Knowing, Confirming it You!
Loving, trusting, believing in you
I delight in you alone .


So that's a summary of what's been going on for me over the last month. I am so grateful for all the work God is doing in me right now. He has never been more beautiful to me.
