Response to Exodus 3:1-6

Father, You are holy and powerful beyond my small mind's ability to comprehend. i know that most days i dont really realize what that means. i'm reminded of the Newsboys lyric "great is Your faithfulness to carry on with a sinner like me..." WOW! that;s HUGE! I'm so broken and so unworthy of even your attention, let alone Your love and constant care for me. God i want to be more worthy. I want to be more faithful to You, to my husband, to the covenant i've made to live for You. Take my heart, my desires, make them glorify You. let all my interactions with others honor and glorify You and reflect your character. Forgive me for so long seeking to provide my own happiness and fulfillment in my relationships, and not trusting You to fulfill me through Your love and provision- using others but knowing that it all comes back to you. Keep a guard at my mouth, mind, and heart, that nothing unbecoming or dishonorable will come out of me. Abba, i want people to see me and see You- i want to have character that attracts people to You. Make me an example (as a wife, as a friend, as a sister, as a daughter) of Your holiness and love and the true joy that that comes from being Yours. Let this joy be attractive and contagious! I ask that Balticon in particular be an opportunity to live the change that you are making in me day by day. Help my attitude and actions reflect my commitment to You and to my husband. I ask Your blessing on the Fellowship i have with others who know You and for Your presence to guide my interactions with those who don't that You will be glorified through me. Help me to live Your love for others, Father. Amen

Where've i been?

well, that's a tough question to answer. over the past few years ive been to some incredible and terrible places physically and spiritually. a lot of it is really personal, and while i do my best to be open and honest and vulnerable on this blog, there is a line of discretion that i can't cross. that said, if you're someone i know and you'd like to hear where i've been and what God's done on a more detailed level, email me or comment and let me know and i'll get in touch with you. **** So, now i'm back and i'm gonna start using this blog again. i've got a number of blogs and i am working to keep up with them all better. i;ve got this one, a fitness blog over at BuffRDQ, my travel blog from last summer, which i need to complete, my journey to becoming a Roller Derby Queen, and this one, which i guess covers everything else that i havent used in ages! so, yeah, i am a blog addict. This one though, is the most important to me though. it chronicles my spiritual journey, and for those who follow it, shows them how to pray for me and maybe- i hope and pray- can encourage people through storms and struggles. so, yeah. i'm back.
