Psalm 11

so, checked one thing off my january goals: bought a journal & i'm writing in it after i write this lovely blog post. saaawweeetttt! it will probably consist of some of the same things i discussed earlier today in my previous post. some of my other goals--not lookin' so hot. like keeping living space clean. somehow i can manage to reek havoc on a room in like 2.5 seconds after coming home from somewhere. & don't ask me how it happens. it just does. i guess my room exemplifies the way my mind thinks. chaos! you can see multiple projects that are not completed because my mind is everywhere. oh well, i guess that makes me who i am. THANK YOU JESUS for not making me boring! :]

Psalm 11

In this Psalm, I realize that the Lord doesn't just test the righteous, but he also tests the evil. The difference is this: those who are evil do not learn & grow from the trials the Lord puts in their ways; however, the righteous grow throughout the process of the Lord putting them through these tribulations. Like I was saying in my last blog post..I have learned a lot from the trials the Lord has put me through. We can choose whether to be evil or righteous. Do you want to grow from your experiences or stay stuck in the same position? Are we just going to give up..throw the towel in & give up on something & join those who are evil?

I hate the feeling of being stuck. It's such a lonely place especially if you are involved in a community of believers. Change is happening all the time in a community of believers because we are all growing throughout our life struggles and situations. I love learning new things & I love learning from friends. I love the feeling of being able to sit & talk about a certain situation to discuss & debate what actually is the right thing to do. Maybe the "right thing to do" isn't the best way to say that. Hmmm...theeee...Christian way of going about things. Like earlier [again; yes i know you're probably getting tired of hearing that] I want to be that strong woman of God. I want to be a woman that fears God. I want that. I desire to be that woman.

journal, here i come :]
