sometimes venting just helps to get it out of my head and sharing helps to let others know that they are not alone
A little about me and my Blog.
i consider journal writing/bloging theriputic. it is also a historical record of events in my life. it exist purly for my own benifit. i do alow others to see it that i trust only for the reason that they might better understand me or relate to something and have it help on some level on the road of life.
i am also working on my personal memroir on webook.com and my journal recordings assist me to tell as compleate of a story as possible. i am not looking for fame or sypathy or anything else that may be evoked in a person who reads my writings. The only way i would hope my writing wouuld effect others is that it will give them a sence that they are not alone, and hopefuly encorage them to keep on puting on foot in frount of another.
God has recently given me a vision of how to help others that have been though abuse. "Hope and Healing" was started in 2001 as on online suport group for abuse survivors, it is being tranformed in to a actual place on earth instead of in cyber space.

My heart aches; my head doubts all that I should know
I stepped forward in faith, yet fell on my face
When I questioned if that was really you calling my name
How shallow I must seem to you
How fragile and easily confused
Undeserving of any further consideration from you
My life I lay before you
You reach down, and take my hand
You lift me up from this mud I put myself in
So undeserving of your love, yet your grace pours out to wash me clean
I don’t have to pretend I have it all together
I don’t have to hide my tears from you
You hold them in your hand then lay them on the ground
Where the seed of love was perfectly placed
To grow me into a child of your own.
Love so amazing, grace so complete
You hold nothing good back from me
When I seek your face
You love me anyway
You bring beauty from these ashes
Like nothing in life that I’ve ever known
I seek to seek you more than anything on this earth
For that is what is required
For me to understand how much you loved me
When you sent your son to the cross for me
Dying in shame He who deserved to be crowned highest king and richest in the world
The lowest of deaths, yet I claim that my life is unfair
How shallow I must seem to you
Undeserving of any further consideration
My mind says run and hide in shame
Still I seek you still
You lift me up from this mud I put myself in
So undeserving of your grace, yet you wash me clean
Such a perfect love that no human can ever give
Love so amazing, grace so complete
You hold nothing good back from me
When I seek your face
Now you call out to me, to take all that you have given
Look to my side and pass it along
To learn to love like you do
To see past the faults and guide others to a better place with Grace
With the strength that only you can give
You ask me to stand in the gap
For those who are far from where you are
And even when they spit in my face
Like they did many times to you
Stay faithful to the cause
Because you loved me anyway
Long before I seeked you
You were calling my name
I fought and cursed you
Pushed you as far away as I could
I nailed you to that cross
I put those thorns on your brow
I pierced your side
Hoping you would die and leave me alone
And stop telling me how much you want me
Yet you loved me anyway
And when I seeked your face
You held nothing good back from me
You washed the history clean with your grace
And you loved me like I was always your own
Love so amazing, grace so complete

This mornings words
This morning... the differnce beween 3am at mt. zion vs the 3am here.... well spiritual position difference.... at mt. zion i placed myself in Gods hands compleatly and just listened to what He had to say and wrote it down, alowing Him to pick the topics and guide the conversation. here i talk to God and half hazerdly alow His hand to guide my thoughts to where He wants to speak to me... here God's hand leads me, but greater it was there when i was in God's hand compleatly. When im only following God's hand the temptaion is there to try to force and direct His hand to what I want. it is simply not as effective.
one of the challenges God is giving me right now is to find deeper security in Him and trust Him more. sin is simply defined as missing the perfect mark. the root of sin is not trusting God and the modivation for sin is trying to find security outside of God. its not a list of rules of right and wrong, its about drawing closer to where God is. seeking Him, desiring to be where He is. if we are not there yet, we can ask God to fill us with that desire. we have not because we ask not. ask and it will be given to you, seek and you shall find, knock on Gods door and He will answer. i used to feel like i was tryimg to force God to love me, to earn my way into His love like some adopted child that just was hard to love. i kept seeking God, i asked Him boldly if i was His child ... He answered with His love. He showed me things i couldnt learn from a book or have anyone else teach me. seek Him. seek first the kingdom of heaven and God's rightousness, then all these things that we Need will be added... even what we didnt know that we needed... and God will strip away the things we thought we needed but only trip us up and hinder our veiw of Him.
