whats your story?

Every single person on this earth has a story. A very unique story. Its unlike anyone else's story. It may be filled with deep pain, rejection, loneliness, fear and a whole mess of other things. When you start to look at people and wonder just what there story is, you suddenly find yourself taking on a whole new appreciation and even sympathy  for that person. A new level of trust and respect is gained when you take the time to listen to their story.

When was the last time you took the time to listen to someones else's story?

When was the last time you told your story?

Do I trust..

• Do I trust that he has ordained my days? (Psalm 139: 5, 6, 16)
• Do I trust that he supplies all I need? (Matthew 6:32)
• Do I trust that never will he leave me or forsake me? (Joshua 1:5)
• Do I trust that who I am in Christ defines me? (Colossians 2:10)

I told him everything..

how i feel like I've lost sight of my dreams. 

how vulnerable I feel. 

how lost, needy, confused, alone and weak I feel... 

and just how weary I am of the never ending battles that I seem to face every day. 

nothing really changed after my heart to heart with God...except that I feel HOPE again.

and it just feels good to be honest.

My eyes are dry
My faith is old
My heart is hard
My prayers are cold
And I know how I ought to be
Alive to You and dead to me
But what can be done
For an old heart like mine
Soften it up
With oil and wine
The oil is You, Your Spirit of love
Please wash me anew
With the wine of Your Blood

Gary Gilmore an American criminal and murderer, moments before he was executed by a firing squad at Utah State Prison, was asked if he had any final words and he simply replied with "Lets do it".

Three simple words..but yet so much power being in those words.
