Empty Handed But Alive In Your Hand...

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness,
and all these things will be given to you as well. - Mathew 6:33

This is a verse I have tried to focus on in my Christian walk. Lately it has been hard. I am at the period of my life where I seem to spend my time equally between thinking about girls and thinking about cars. More important than these things though, is the Kingdom of God. A search for righteousness and God's presence is what should define life. Focus on His majesty, see where it gets you. I'll try to follow my own advice.

I Wanna Give You Every Moment Every Minute...

And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord,
are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another.

For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit. - 2 Cor. 3:18

Growing in God is a continuing process. The great thing is that we have a continuing promise in the bible that God will continue what he started in us as budding Christians. As long as we have a desire, God will meet us where we are and bring us down the road of maturity in faith. He will never get tired of us, forget us, or leave us. He is always there, and he always wants to show us the way. A relationship with God is truly like none other, and it is the only relationship that can satisfy. The only relationship that can bring true peace is a relationship with the Prince of Peace, Jesus.

Every Tear We Cry, He Holds In His Hand...

You have kept count of my tossings;
put my tears in your bottle, Are they not in your book?
-Psalm 56:8

Life has a way of hitting hard. It can be hard to walk by faith and not by sight when you are hurting. The comforting thing to know is that God is always there, and that he always loves us and is there for us, even when our emotions are telling us the opposite. God will never leave or abandon us. And he always provides a way; he always has the next step. He can get you out of whatever you are in. He loves you.
