We are supposed to come to Jesus "as we are" but I still feel like I have to change before he'll accept me and really work in and through my life. I know I'm not the first and I won't be the last to struggle with this, but my cousin is right. I need to get this part of my life in order or I won't experience joy, or really get anywhere. Living for me, and my desires isn't working. So here we go God. You've got my attention. Let's work this out, because I'm really, really tired of doing it on my own.

Faith
How do I get some?? Believing in something intangible and undecipherable to the human senses is... so hard. So Hard. People keep telling me, "take it on faith" "my faith keeps me afloat" "faith is essential" Some part of me knows it to be true. But I'm limited by my humanness, by my desire to control and my inability to settle my doubts.

Change... hmmm... I think we've changed ourselves from what God originally wanted from us. Whether this was from outside influences, or our own perceptions, etc... we really never get back to that childhood innocence. (Not that we want to be unrealistic) But God created us to be one with him... to have a relationship. I see it more as a trek back to the place we belong then really "changing"...
just thoughts...
I'm just so fed up with all of the conotations that go with christianity!!
