9|17|07

Wow its been forever o_O im so sorry for not making this consistent & i know I'm just pulling out the normal excuse but the truth is that I just get so caught up in everything around me that I forget what's most important. There isn't a day that goes by where I dont look back and regret not spending that simple minute with God. Luckily I have sunday school and Church otherwise I dont know how i'd be able to funciton daily.

Speaking of Sunday School I must admit that Jose Uncle's class is probably the most insightful sunday school class i've been blessed to be a part of. At first I may have been a bit intimidated but in the long run this was the first time I ever cried during a lesson in all 11 years + kindergarden.

The topic was on Sept 9 2007 and we were speaking about how we ask God why our prayers havent been answered. & we feel that God has left us or deserted us when in truth- we have deserted God. Its been a common teaching that sin has made God farther from us, well that's how i've interpreted it, but it was made clear to me that WE are the ones walking away. We see something shiney and suddenly forget the person who was waiting for us tapping on our head saying *yoohwhoo rmr me??* Its like we have Christian ADD- we see someone that catches our eye and forget on what we were consentrating on only moment before.

Now why did I cry? Well at times when I feel emotionally disable, like i've been feeling lately without my daily dose of Jesus :), every word just tuggs my heart strings. How can we just be so oblivious sometimes? I mean wives get so angry when husbands forget their anniversary and childrens hearts get broken when their friends don't remeber their birthdays- what if these people we care about so much forget to say hello? Forget to say good morning, good night? I just feel so guilty sometimes... he blesses us so much but we run off to the nearest candy store. What wonderful children we are -_-
Psalm 36:7

7 How priceless is your unfailing love!
Both high and low among men
find [b] refuge in the shadow of your wings.

"The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us Good because he loves us; just as the roof of a sunhouse does not attract the sun because it is so bright, but becomes bright because the sun shines on it."
-C.S Lewis

God Bless you :)
