maybe even a little on the obnoxious side.
but please don't hate me too much, because:
i am the happiest i have ever been in my life.
i have always been content with my life (well not always, but since i've founded myself in God), but things obviously don't always go your way.
sometimes life is rough, or unfair, or plain just rude to you.. but you learn how to not only get past it, but learn how to be joyful in every circumstance and love those around you with the best example of Christlike love you can be.
this is not one of those rough times. i am completely overwhelmed by the wealth of blessings surrounding me.
my roommate is a gorgeous, smart, kind woman with a heart for God and a knowledge of Him.
my dorm, aside from being beautiful, is full of the friendliest, most caring people i have ever had the pleasure of living with.
my church is wonderful. i've been blessed to meet so many kind people.
one thing i'm extremely excited about is the opportunity i've been given to sing with the worship team at resonate. it's possibly the most talented group of musicians i've ever known, and it still blows my mind a little bit that they would let me sing with them.
worship is an amazing thing.. i see it as a response to what i know of God. and what i've been shown of His character is capable of flooring me.
where else could i find an unconditional love? all i've ever done is walk away from God and ignore Him and fail to make Him a priority. and all He does is love me.
(Josh: There You Are by carolyn arends. i want to sing it sometime! it's extremely meaningful to me, and a perfect example of why i worship God.)
i'm a little ashamed that i haven't fully used my talent to honor God in the past (thank you, meiocre self). but i fully intend to in the future, because He is completely worthy.
(and don't you dare quote me as being cocky, i know my voice is a gift from God and i take no credit for it)
these last few weeks have been more deep and meaningful to me than nearly anything else in the past 18 years of my life. my heart is full, and my joy has been restored. and i love my God.
