Sappiness

Ok be forewarned, this might be rather sappy. Side not, blogger you really threw me off with your new posting format but alas I will try to figure you out!

So I have been thinking about love lately. I know its something every little girl dreams of. When you get tossed into the messiness of relationships, often every girl is ready to put up a white flag and quit. However, I certainly have learned my fair share of lessons in love and life. I don't begin to even come near to fully understanding it but I do know Christ's love for me! The depths of it, astounding, and something I will never be able to fully comprehend this side of Heaven!

I was going to post separately about how God's sovereignty is incredible but I think it goes along with His love. As a college graduate I am beginning to learn that life is all about change. Though I am in a transition stage, so many others are as well. Finding new jobs, picking a place to live, it will always come up in life. Perhaps it is just God reminding me, I am not God and I have no clue what 'the best' is for me. It's all about faith. God says here are all these great options, because I love you. Do you trust me to lead you to the best and uniquely catered one for you, because I love you? Patiently wait because I know you need to wait, I love you.

I have been blown away by God's expression of his love for me. Graduating from college is an emotional roller coaster ride, as is the rest of life but I don't think we would have it any other way. I get so humbled every time I bump into someone who asks how things are going and reminds me they are praying for me. Boy, I tell you what, knowing that my life is covered in prayer is a huge confidence booster and stress reliever! So reader, know your brothers and sisters in Christ are praying for you! I have talked to 8 people this week all of which reminded me of God's specific care for me. Reader, that goes for you too! I saw a quote a friend posted and think it sums up numerous conversations I've had this week....

"Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God."-Corrie Ten Boom

With all that being said, in any relationship-family, friends, marriage, it is the most amazing experience when someone shows you the love of Christ. They look at you, they hear and see your faults and forgive you and love you. That is the Gospel in the flesh. Sappy? Far from it.

Now for the sappiness and all you dreamers out there....

 "..And then I'd like to hear you, I mean really hear you.
So.. would you mind if I eavesdropped on your thoughts, if I overheard your daydreams and made them all come true..?"
