I feel like I'm not close enough to God. I've felt like this before but too often I try to hard to be the one in control of mine and God's relationship. I want to be,feel and KNOW that I"m close to the Lord and know that he IS the LORD of my life. Thats what that title means. That He is Lord of my life. I was talking the other day with a friend/mentor who was talking about something Paul says in Romans. Its Romans 6:18. When something gets taken away you need to replace it with something. Replace the bad with good. Perhaps if you were to take something from a child that they had picked up by accident, like some scissors or a tool of some sort (something detrimental to their health) and replace it with something like a teddy bear, that would be the same idea. We are supposed to replace our being slaves of sin to being slaves of righteousness. We are called to righteous living. to be continued...

JUM.BLE.

Sometimes I swear that I think my patience is just going to end, but some how there is always enough. Thank you Lord. Luke 21:19

This year has been a funky start. I haven't quite had my heaD ON STRAIGHT BUT I'M GETTING THERE. I'M JUST COMING OUT OF A RELATIONSHIP THAT KINDA LEFT ME FEELING FUNNY. THE GIRL IS JUST AWESOME BUT WE NEED OUR TIME PART AND EVERYTHING, BUT LATELY WE'VE BEEN HANGING OUT MORE AGAIN. IT'S HARD TO SUDDENLY BE APART FROM SOMEONE LIKE THAT. PLUS, I STILL SORT OF LIKE HER WHICH ISN'T HELPING THE SITUATION. WE NEED TO SPEND TIME APART IN PRAYER ESPECIALLY SINCE EVERYTHING THAT WENT WRONG IN THE RELATIONSHIP COMES BACK TO ME. I'VE GOT ALOT TO WORK ON IN MYSELF. IT CAN'T BE ANYTHING I CHANGE IN MYSELF IT HAS TO BE GOD DOING THAT CHANGING. PSALM 51:10.
