Wisdom from Colleen.
I don't check my comments very often, and so I just read this one from my dear friend Colleen, who should be sitting next to me on the couch right now, drinking wine from a box, eating cookies, and watching Project Runway. Moving my stuff to my room when I leave it in the living room. Always cleaning when I cook for her. Ready to make a pan of baked ziti or stuffed shells when someone needs some mothering. The things you miss so much when you move to Michigan. She says...
I just remembered that you had this blog and I am so blessed by your postings since I am in a similar, yet different position. I am yearning for God to fill my heart but I don't have enough time to sit down like I used to and learn from the Bible and study like I had before. I was ashamed that I had not given God the time to study His Word and then I hit my hands and knees and just simply said "God, I can't live like this, you will have to do it for me". That is when I found my passion for Jesus and that is when I realized that you had a blog so I read it. Thank God you are in my life and I can be a part of yours through this blog. It shows me that I am not the only one who feels inadequate in my relationship with Christ. I have to remember that I am His child, His heir, His bride and he loves me unconditionally.
I have been looking at things down here a lot differently now and I have an Eleventyseven song in my head constantly that says "my heart is a spark, for You to ignite, I'm wanting to be the one that burns for you tonight, so bring me to life just like the starts that shine so brightly in the night, bring me to life."
We have life only in Christ and through Christ.
