Okay, guys. I haven’t mentioned this to anyone yet, and I only found out about it Friday after school. My mom went and got a mammogram taken a few weeks ago, and the doctors had her come back Friday because they thought they saw something. And they ran a couple more tests, and they’ve found a spot on my mom’s chest. (It’s not big at all, but it’s still there.) Please pray for my mom, guys. Her mother had breast cancer but, by the grace of God, survived it and is now cancer-free. I’m just not feeling too good about this, and I’m just hoping you guys could say a few prayers.
Also, if you know my family in real life, it’s probably better that a lot of people do not know about it. (It’s not a big deal just yet…or really at all… Just try to keep it between you and the Lord, alright? hahaha.) Thanks!
I was drawn toward this chapter after reading its last verse in my devotional: “The LORD our God has secrets known to no one. We are not accountable for them, but we and our children are accountable forever for all that he has revealed to us, so that we may obey all the terms of these…
Mountain high or valley low, I sing out, remind my soul: I am Yours; I am forever Yours.
I found a love greater than life itself.
I found a hope stronger, and nothing compares.
I once was lost; now, I’m alive in You.
I want more of You. So much more than I’ve been living off of for the last little while. I want to thrive off of You and Your goodness and love. I don’t know that I’ve felt that way for a long time. I just need to feel You, but I haven’t felt really felt filled in such a long time. I don’t know what it’s coming from, but I need to make a change. I just feel like I’ve remained static for a while, or at best, merely coasting along. I just want to feel that passion, and I want to be around others that are passionate about You. Father, I know that the next year of my life will be spent here and at this church and with these people, but I just need You to break through all the motions and all the silence and all the little barriers that are keeping me (and all the rest of my peers) away from Your shining light. I can’t blame my lack of passion on anything but my own laziness and noncommital behavior towards You. I need You to put the change in me and fire it up. God, make it blaze. I feel so distant from You. Come back into my life, I beg of You. I’ve been spreading Your love so thin, Father. Rekindle my love for You.
