I won't ever get it completely right..but that's okay.

Recently I've been struggling. I've been struggling with why I can't get it right.

Although I love Jesus soooo much, but why I can't be spotless like Him?? Why do I do the same stupid things over and over again?? He's used me so much, but why can't I seem to be an even a better example?? Why do I doubt? Why do I struggle with struggling?

Pastor Rick Warren tweeted a while ago "It's the "I" in sin, pride, & mine that causes the "I" in strife, guilt, bitterness & misery." AHAHHA SO TRUE. even when I seem to be doing "good"...sometimes it's just about I....but even so it doesn't matter cause...

It's not about me!!! I'll never get it right, but JESUS ALREADY MADE IT RIGHT!!!
So yeah, I will still mess up...and yeah I'll never be perfect until I meet my Maker face to face.

Cause everything is just about HIm, even when I do Christian "stuff" it won't matter if the intentions aren't really for Him....cause it's HIM HIM HIM! haha

"'Cause this is not about what you've done,
But what's been done for you.
This is not about where you've been,
But where your brokenness brings you to

This is not about what you feel,
But what He felt to forgive you,
And what He felt to make you loved."

couldn't have said it any better....thanks Tenth Ave. North!

He came to make the dead alive!!

"The biggest difference between Jesus Christ and ethical and moral teachers who have been deified by man, is that these moralists came to make bad people good, Jesus came to make dead people live. East or west, north or south, ancient or modern, the problem is the same and the solution is the same. Once we understand the heinousness of sin, we'll gain a deep and lasting gratitude for God." - Ravi Zacharias

Being a Christian doesn't entail doing good things by our own efforts, it's not about being better than other people..because we are not by any means better than ANYONE! We've just by God's grace realized the TRUTH!! We will ALWAYS fail if we do it on our own. It's not even about doing good either!!! It's realizing how good HE is so that we so we will want to respond to Him by our life of love and faith..hopefully displayed not by just words but by actions!

It's about having faith in the Almighty it's about abandoning yourself to Him, to let the Savior transform your life so that nothing else can satisfy your desires but serving Him, being in His presence, learning His Word, and living for His glory.

That's what Abba has been teaching me.

I have a long way to go still...but He's guiding me every step of the way!!!
