I've been convicted of not living out my faith more. No, this is not some New Years Resolution. I've been thinking about it for a while and I just decided that it is time to live what I believe. Especially on my blog. I am a Christian. I got saved when I was 10 years old and even went to a private Christian High School. I've always loved and respected God but somewhere during my high school and college years I sort of lost that awe factor that God has. I was very in tune with God during my junior year of high school but once I graduated and moved to Florida, I had a hard time finding a church that fed me and where I wanted to belong to like my one in Missouri. So I kind of lost that joy, where you wake up on Sunday and can't wait to go to church and where having a daily devotion isn't a chore but something you look forward to doing. I'm slowly getting back to that but I've still yet to find a church that makes me feel that way and encourages me to live out my faith (if you know of one let me know!).
Lately though, I've been reading a lot of great blogs from girls who are not ashamed to say that God is the love of their life and how in awe they are of Him and it's just made me want to get back to that place. It's funny how God can work on you. Sometimes he makes so huge gesture and you know it's him and sometimes there will be all these small signs and you just keep seeing him and then you just have an aha moment where you're like "Wow, I didn't notice at the time but God has been working this out the whole time!" Well, since 2012 is going to be a pretty big year (I guess this did turn into a New Years Resolution but I'm hoping this becomes so much more than that) both personally and spiritually I've decided that one thing I want to do is study the Proverbs 31 woman and try to become more like her and to fall so in love with Jesus that I won't need anything else. And lucky you, you all get to come along for the ride.
To close I wanted leave you all with some of the pinterest words of wisdom that I have pinned recently. Enjoy!
Lots of Love,
