never in a million years did I think I would be in this place...

A friend told me today that she has never been disappointed when she's obeyed God.
She's right.
Why does it have to be so very hard?
I don't want to let go.
God help me.

Each day will get easier.
I hope you find happiness.

Maybe someday we will look at each other with a smile thinking of sweet memories, knowing we still have a connection.

obeying God is seriously the the hardest thing sometimes. i'm very glad you wrote this entry because its exactly what Gods been trying to teach me. "delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart." its weird how we as christians take that verse the way we want to take it, saying, "God, i love you, i'm willing to follow you wherever you lead; now that i've been obedient, please bless me with such and such." when really, delighting in God means giving up what we want and wholeheartedly pursuing what Christ wants... then in doing so, he takes our desires and molds them into what he wants for us. its not that he doesnt fulfill our desires, its that he changes them. thats what Gods been teaching me. miss you.
