it's 12:25 a.m. i am sorta kinda finished packing for college?? it's hard to say since i have never done this before. tomorrow, or i guess today, is going to be a huge day! im living with the best girls ever, but it was soooo hard to think about being apart from all my auburn friends.. i wont see them for a month! anyways, it's so hard to keep consistent in my walk with God when everything is so crazy right now but this was my verse from today..
2 cor 4:7But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.
sweet verse huh... it reminds me that nothing in me is good except for God. he is my power. its such a reminder when things are going good to realize this has nothing to do with me, who i am, or what i deserve. god has so graciously blessed me and i sit here amazed at his faithfulness.
how about this verse?
1 cor 2: 18So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
that is beauty right there, that's truth. i am the ultimate example of focusing on what's in front of me and not eternally..i mean come on i am a girl and we can be so obsessed with materials and image that we forget who we are trying to impress. the lord is who i should be concerned with glorifying, not myself.
it's time to go to bed. kinda sorta packing maybe. tomorrow morning i am in college. roll tide up in here
nothing's ever clear. nothing's ever what you thought it would be, what you expected. it's wrong, not what you wished for, it's twisted... but if you're lucky.. it's just right, it's more than you could imagine, it's beautiful.
for me life is like walking in the dark. but to be completely honest, this has nothing to do with me. i plan everything everyday.. im learning something, though.. it's that something has found a way to pervade my plans, my passions, my affections, my thoughts.. something has given me reason to be obsessed, to be in love, and to live.. . . He, Christ Jesus, is walking with me everyday. He's leading me by my hand in darkness i have created. i would have never planned it this way, but now it is unmistakably outside of myself a reason to give him glory for a story I could have never written.
