The love I crave...

"All you need is love, all you need is love, love, love is all you need..."  These famous words came from a band (that most of us know and love), The Beatles.  These lyrics tell us that all we need is love, and everything will be ok.  If you have someone to hold you and love you than your fine, no problem.  Right?....  Wrong.  That is what the world wants us to believe.  God wants us to believe that all we need is him!  As long as we have Christ and we follow his words and live by his command than we will know true love.  We will start to feel love even when we don't see it, love that never fails, love that is everlasting!  Be encouraged friends, when you don't feel love turn to him...

Too much happening all at once...

Where to start?  Do you ever feel like your life is spinning out of control?  Last night we had home group.  Mr. McCraw put what I am feeling in so much better words than I ever could have.  Here is what he said-  "I was watching Finding Nemo with my wife and Liam, when it came to the part where the fish and turtles were on the Australian Current, it reminded me of my own life, and how I have been feeling when it comes to 'life' itself.  You feel like you are on this crazy roller coaster and you cant get off."  This is exactly how I have been feeling!  When he first started explaining it I started to laugh, realizing that what he was saying was true.  I am constantly having to remind myself that life that gets crazy, but in those crazy times I have to keep applying the gospel to my life.  I feel run down and tired, but this is all temporary!  Someday it will all be put to an end, we will be in Gods kingdom worshiping him forever... and never get tired!  More than anything, that should be my reason to keep running this "never ending" race, knowing that it will end.  Knowing that God has complete control over my life makes me feel so at peace.

As most of you know I started my college classes this week, just be praying that I don't die from over exhaustion!  hahaha (:
