A Family In Christ

It's kind of interesting learning about a flower, or any kind of seed. When you plant the seed, one thing that it needs to do before it can grow is............. any guesses?........ die. Which I always thought my mom was wrong when I was little. ;P But now it makes sense. We are like a seed. Before there can be light, there is darkness. When God created the world, what was there before the light? Darkness. Although, Adam and Eve were perfect before they sinned, so I guess this metaphor isn't quite accurate. ;) But anyway, this song can explain things better than I can. :)   

I thought this song was beautiful. I have suffered with a lot of doubt, and my faith has been up and down, but now and then, the realization of how powerful our God is, and how much He loves me, just smacks me full force in the face. And most of the time, I cry. I'm not ashamed to say it. The thought makes me cry. I have stayed up late at night many times crying my eyes out, because I feel that I'm so unworthy of His love, but He still loves me. I wonder if I'm not good enough, I doubt that God loves me, I wonder if He really is real. And then, there's always this small thing, that makes me think, 'what am I doing? He loved me so much that He sent His son to die on the cross for me.' I'm actually crying as I write this. Please, don't doubt Him! He loves you so much! I don't know how many times I've told myself that, but please, listen to the wisdom of God. "I will never leave you, nor forsake you." He said that. Thank you God! For lovin...

Wait. Is this... is this a... blog post? *GASP* She's alive!!! Sing and shout with joy! She's not dead!!!! :D Well, at least... I HOPE you're - singing for joy. You know... because I'm not dead. *cricket chirps* Oh well. Okay! So, I am NOT dead (as I'm sure you've noticed) I've just been very busy. :D We've kind of been doing some fun for the summer. ;) We've... gone camping, went to Oaks Amusement Park, gone to the beach, rode a train, and just got back from a resort. It was definitely a place for rich people. The resort, that is. And we are not rich people. ;) But anyway. I'm sooooooooo sorry for not blogging in so long. I'll try and pick up with Revelation tomorrow, but right now I've got to run. Just thought I would stop and tell every one that I am NOT dead! :D *more cricket chirps* Okay. Um.... have a good afternoon.    I'M NOT DEAD! WOOHOO!!!! XD   (Ugh, who's that? I-I don't know who that is. Bye!)
