So often lately i feel that i do not even deserve God's grace. And then I think again....I really do not even deserve it at all. And that is the beauty of it. I know i sin constantly. And it is sad to see how many people are not open about the fact that they do, or try to hide it, but really not a soul on this earth is right, correct, perfect, or anywhere near having the right to judge another. And this sentence is a perfect example of itself. Maybe people are open to the fact they sin. Not necessarily with me, or you. But with God. There is so much more to everything than we can see. It is really a joke to try and come to some kind of earthly understanding of something we did not create, or understand from the beginning. Is that not where faith comes in? If we really were supposed to know "scientific meaning" or fact of the earth, why did the first men from earth not record it somehow in their own language, and it get translated down the line? We were born with minds, so there was somehow a form of communication. God is really the only way I can imagine. And i love studying the atheist view and other belief's or non-belief's.
Sorry for that tangent at the end. So many people you feel are the best friends, are never around anymore, and so many people you thought never would be close again will come back. It is a cycle. We are human, needs, emotions, and wants change. Nothing is forever, (except for diamonds apparently). So why be satisfied with the thing of the world. When God never has left?

I have been so completely aware of my sin and unrighteousness lately... almost too aware that I allow myself to get bogged down and I forget that God sent Jesus so that I would not be bogged down or depressed but so that I would know His Amazing Love! I always forget His love... why do you think we forget His love? I hate that I forget...
