For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. New King James
For I am persuaded BEYOND DOUBT (am sure) that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things impending and threatening nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in ALL creation will be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Jesus Christ our Lord. Amplified Version
I am absolutely convinced that nothing- living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable- ABSOLUTELY NOTHING can get between us and God's love because the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us. God Is Calling His People. The Message
Lord, write these truth's on my heart today.

Blessed is this LIFE!
Okay, so, it's been a while since I've rambled..on this blog at least. Been keeping my other one pretty full, that one has more followers anyway. I guess the truth that you feel free to speak when you know you're anonymous is quite interesting to strangers. But I think I'm done with that one. I almost deleted it today but I really think it deserves one more post. Just not sure when and how I'm going to end it. The thought of that excites me though...the possibilities that lie ahead.
Okay so the quirk thing...well, that obviously didn't work. I have decided that either 1) I am not quirky or 2) I am so quirky that I don't even see my quirks and therefore cannot list them. Hmmm...
So about a year ago I prayed a prayer that no sane human being should ever pray...I prayed for God to break me. I know, I know...crazy. And if in that moment I would have known what I was going to go through for Him to do that I never would have let those words slip over my lips. Or would I? Because as hard as it is to have to look at yourself and see you for who you really are, in this growth process that we call life it is completely necessary. Painful, but necessary. Embarrassing at times, but necessary. Humbling, but necessary. So the fire is...well, necessary. So I can't be sorry that I asked God to take His vessel and turn up the fire on her for the impurities to rise to the surface. He knew when I prayed that prayer what I was asking and what it was gonna take for me to really, honestly look in the mirror and see me for who I am...the bad and the good. Because see I think that I was living in a place that I couldn't see me AT ALL, not any of me...just sleep walking through life. And to take this life that God has given you and live it in a stupor is nothing short of a tragedy. So with all the craziness that my breaking and rebuilding process is taking I can honestly say today that I am alive. I am hopeful, pensive, excited, scared, unsure, sure, sad at times, silly, still a little crazy and... I. AM. ALIVE. And it is an amazing place to be.
How great is that song?!?!
