I am an imperfect person seeking a perfect God. I over analyze everything, I laugh at inappropriate times and I judge much to quickly, but through it all God's grace holds me together. I'm slowly but surely learning to accept that I am "fearfully and wonderfully made"and that loving Him and others will be the most important thing I ever do.

“…Mercy triumphs over judgment” (James 2:13, NIV)
We’ve all made mistakes. We’ve all made wrong choices; but as believers in Jesus, that doesn’t change our heritage. God doesn’t kick us out of the kingdom because we’re not perfect. Maybe you don’t feel like you deserve God’s goodness, or you think you’re supposed to suffer through life and just endure that problem. But friends, this is what mercy is all about. His mercy will renew and restore you if you receive it by faith today.
No matter what you may have done wrong, you are still the apple of God’s eye. You are still His most prized possession. You can still activate God’s promises by faith today. Why don’t you shake off the guilt and condemnation? Put your shoulders back and say, “I refuse to live below my privileges. I may not be perfect, but I am forgiven. I may have made mistakes, but God knows my heart is to please Him, and I am changing my ways. Even though I may have brought this trouble on myself, I’m going to stay in faith and expect God to turn it around.”
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
” Gracious heavenly Father, thank You for Your mercy. Thank You for receiving me, loving me, cleansing me, and changing me. I dedicate every area of my life to You and invite You to have Your way in me. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.” -

It’s one of those things that we cant control, but holds us together. We think we know it all sometimes, but when we think about it, even the things we think are right always seem to have some conflicting narrative hidden by a spectator. It can be a dangerous thing out there for someone searching for God. You are especially vulnerable at that time and when you do find an answer,it always seems to fit in someone else’s hand, but not quite in yours. That’s when I suppose you stop looking for Him through other people and and you just ask Him straight up where He is.

Psalm 27
1 Light, space, zest— that’s God!
So, with him on my side I’m fearless,
afraid of no one and nothing.
2 When vandal hordes ride down
ready to eat me alive,
Those bullies and toughs
fall flat on their faces.
3 When besieged,
I’m calm as a baby.
When all hell breaks loose,
I’m collected and cool.
4 I’m asking God for one thing,
only one thing:
To live with him in his house
my whole life long.
I’ll contemplate his beauty;
I’ll study at his feet.
5 That’s the only quiet, secure place
in a noisy world,
The perfect getaway,
far from the buzz of traffic.
6 God holds me head and shoulders
above all who try to pull me down.
I’m headed for his place to offer anthems
that will raise the roof!
Already I’m singing God-songs;
I’m making music to God.
7-9 Listen, God, I’m calling at the top of my lungs:
”Be good to me! Answer me!”
When my heart whispered, “Seek God,”
my whole being replied,
”I’m seeking him!”
Don’t hide from me now!
9-10 You’ve always been right there for me;
don’t turn your back on me now.
Don’t throw me out, don’t abandon me;
you’ve always kept the door open.
My father and mother walked out and left me,
but God took me in.
11-12 Point me down your highway, God;
direct me along a well-lighted street;
show my enemies whose side you’re on.
Don’t throw me to the dogs,
those liars who are out to get me,
filling the air with their threats.13-14 I’m sure now I’ll see God’s goodness
in the exuberant earth.
Stay with God!
Take heart. Don’t quit.
I’ll say it again:
Stay with God. -

“You can reblog this but please do not steal it. I didn’t write this to make a cute Tumblr post. I wrote this because it was on my heart. I’m posting it because I just want to let it out. This is me being real. And I want the world to know. Please do not delete this caption if you reblog. Thanks, loves.”
…God will bring me to that “special someone” someday. In own His time. In His own way.
