Change is good.

Change is refreshing.

Change is neccesary.

Change encourages sanity.

I needed a change.

(No, this has nothing to do with Obama!)

So, I cut off my hair…pretty short. (Don’t worry. I will post pictures in a few days.)

I talked to James tonight about my desire, this heaviness that has been laying on my heart. Too long I feel like I’ve been ducking away from my Christian responsibilities. I know I need to be a better Christian, a truer follower. I need to get back to the basics. I need to change my pessimistic views of life.

And what better time than the holiday season to stop and reexamine the true meaning of life?! I mean, I don’t know how or if, to what extent this may change my life, but I need to give it my all. I need to immerse myself in His Word. I need to study the true message of the Gospel. I want to awaken that childlike faith that lead me to the alter at the age of 10.

Everyday I feel myself slipping further into The World and farther away from His Kingdom. That’s not what I want. God has blessed me so much, fulfilled dreams I didn’t even know I had. Now it’s my turn to grow up, take responsibility, and show him a little gratitude for the sacrifices he has made and will continue to make for me. God is so Great!

I know some of you may think that I’m coming off just a little to much like a Bible-thumper. But I can’t help it. I used to be so gung-ho (is that how you spell it?!), so passionate about my faith. Then I grew up, became jaded by the World and lost sight of the true reason for my existance. I was put here on Earth to spread the Good News, to share the Love of Jesus Christ. How can I do that if all anyone sees in me is a sarcastic smirk and an outlook full of negativity? 

This is it. This is my time for change. Starting tomorrow night James and I will be devoting part of our evening to devotion. To studying the Gospel. To reexaming the true Christmas story. I hope you’ll join us. In your own place and time. Even if just for a few minutes. Stop and count your blessings. Realize how wonderful your life is. And thank the Lord for your salvation.

Happy Holidays everyone and God Belss.
