Brand New BFF

It's what I call "staying focused". Just learning to live life with Jesus. Chatting it up as we walk down the dirt path of life holding hands, skipping, pausing to enjoy the scenery (but never for too long). Pouring my heart and soul into my family, my school, my missions, and the lover of my soul. A lot of people take this the wrong way. I don't blame them. But I can't worry about that. I'm trying to be who I've been created to be.

Recently I've felt more alone than ever before, but also recently I've felt more loved and truly accepted than ever before. I'm trying to remember what really matters in the long-run. That doesn't mean I'm apathetic or heartless....I'm just focused in a different direction, in an eternal direction. I've got my eyes on the heavens and I'm not looking down for anyone.

Reading through Ezekiel is tough. It's full of God's anger and wrath, but it's also got these neat little hidden one-phrase treasures of truth. Each morning it God uses just a few simple words to focus me for the day. Mainly, it's to surrender to Him and just live a life of worship and praising His glory. And honestly, I don't think anyone could be happier than when they become best friends with the Savior of the World, the Creator of the World, the King of the Universe, THE I AM.

And right now, I can honestly say, more than ever, that Jesus is my Best Friend. I never fully understood what it meant till recently. And I can't wait to see more.
