The Craziness I Call My Life

I haven't done a random post in a while so I'm sure you guys are dying for one.

My life is pretty boring. Not much happens in my life. I go to church and pretty much stay home besides going to the pool, beach or for a run. My friends suck lol. On a good note my dad is walking with a cane and you dont really have to help him as much anymore.He still isn't at the point that can be left alone but hey its huge compared to 6 months ago when we had to move him in bed because he couldn't do even that much. Unfortunately the Neurosurgeon wants to put bone back in his head. I know its good (scares the crap out of me having that soft spot) but the surgery where they took that piece out had him in like a coma for 3 days and the surgery before that he had ended up having a stroke and seizure. A new surgery is like "great now whats going to happen?" I feel bad but its exhausting. I'm 23 and my whole life is about taking care of my dad. At least I have my books lol.

So I got a new piercing WOOOHOO!! I love this piercing place (Master Pierce) and they have eye candy lol.

Rook

Yes those are gauges. I've heard all the comments on it but hey I like it so BAM there it is! I plan on getting more piercing but with time. I keep hearing the "why?!" It's like I said. I like it lol 

YA'LL JUST HAVE TO GET USED TO MY BAD-ASSARY! =]

Last week I went to the beach and got the horrible sun burn (looking pretty black right now). We were there from 11am to 4pm so you can just imagine. Anyways so the point to telling you this story is what happen when I got home. So I went with my friends Sophie (the most dramatic Puerto Rican ever) and Jean. Well I'm getting ready to take a shower (sand in butt is not lovely!) Well Sophie starts freaking out and I'm like "???" She tells me that 20 minutes ago someone posted this picture on instragram from the beach we were just at. 

So I'm like "umm excuse me?" Then she does a little more instragram research (I know what your thinking) and someone else had posted a picture of the shark on Palm Beach 4 hours ago. She starts yelling that it washed up while we were there and she's loosing her marbles over this. Me on the other hand, my inner monologue was saying "I knew there was a shark" "nobody ever believes me when I say a shark is going to eat me" "thats why all those lil fishes were around us". Mind you the shark washed up dead haha. The point is THERE WAS A HUGE SHARK AT THE BEACH WE WERE JUST AT! This is why Florida sucks people. REMEMBER THAT! 

 

 

I'm going to wrap this up with some scriptures that really impacted me this week.

Ephesians 2:4-10 ESV 4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us,5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,7 so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God,9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast.10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

HE IS HERE

We may have a bad day or week or year but it doesn't matter as long as you are serving Jesus with your whole heart. I know how easy it is to get side tracked and loose focus but our problems are nothing next to God. He gives us the strength to do everything. Who are we to complain about the small things when He laid down His life for us.

Today I felt like I couldn't take anymore. I wanted to give up and disappear but I got the revelation that it isn't about me. When I gave my life to Christ, He never promised that we would never struggle or go through hard times. Jesus is our crutch in those hard times but we choose to lean on ourselves instead. 

I may be weak Your spirit strong in me. My flesh may fail, My God you never will

We were created to worship and give praise to God. Are you giving Him all the praise He deserves? I know I haven't. So here I am praising and worshiping Him.  

Holy is the Man of Sorrows
Destroying the works of the evil one, all with Your own blood
And mercies before and behind You, such beauty all around You  
And how could I ever repay You, but with the fragrance of my Hallelujah

 May God give you the revelation of those words.

It's my joy to love, it's my joy to obey
You can have all my heart, You can have all my praise
I will give You my life, I will run hard this race
Reaching for the prize, I am Yours and You are mine

 One thing I realized today was the extent of what God has called us to do. It is not all about ourselves. We cant always do what we want and not do what we dont want to do. We have to be faithful and do what God wants us to do. There will always be a situation or person that our flesh wants nothing to do with but we have to put our flesh aside and do what the spirit requires.

Jesus, let us be sensitive to the Spirit and have hear to hear.
