Introduction
The purpose of this blog is mostly to be a place where I can vent out my thoughts as well as show the steps God has taken me through in my life to bring me where I am - hence the title, Journey on the Narrows. It is my hope that someday someone will be able to read this, find something they can relate to and be encouraged that God does follow through on His promises.
Feel free to post a comment!
God bless!!!
I see you pass byAnd I wonder what lies behind your eyesDo you think back?Or did you burn the memories?There's so much I wish I could sayBut the timing, it always seems to be wrong Not now, not here, maybe tomorrow, but not today But tomorrow never seems to come, and yesterday is so far goneThey say if you love something to let it goBut to that I say, if you really love somethingHold onto it for dear lifeBecause love is something the world seeks to steal and warpTo make into something superficial and meaninglessTrue, pure, compassionate love is a rarity in this lifetimeAnd it's something I feel is worth fighting forIf you only knew how much I still give to youWhat I'm saying is, that I love youAnd I don't think I will ever stopI've tried so many times to let it goBut in the end, my heart still holds onI won't pretend it's not painful, because it isFar more than I want to admit sometimesBut I wouldn't trade it for anythingBecause that would mean that you were never in my lifeBut even if it's not all my faultI blame myself for everythingFor failing to be the man I should have beenFor failing to do what I should have doneEven now tears fall from my eyesBecause I miss you so muchI miss your smile, your laugh, your touchAnd most of all, I miss your loveI wish I could tell you how much joy you gave meHow I couldn't sleep at night cause I was thinking about youHow you made me smile when I didn't want toHow you could melt my heart with just a glance and a smile All of this I wish with all of my heart I could sayBut all I can do is watch you walk awayAnd bury it all in my heartThis unwritten letter to you
Ah, today...today. Not a lot happened really. I got to go to church, but it was family Sunday, so I was twenty minutes late, haha. Plus my normal seat was taken. Luckily, I had some good friends that had an extra seat near them. The downside was it was on the front row, lol. However, I think it was all part of God's strategic plan to work on getting me outside of my comfort zone. In the end, I was oddly comfortable with sittin' there. Plus it got me away from her and her boyfriend which sit two seats down from where I normally am, so I was at least a little less distracted, even though I was able to see them straight across from where I sat this morning =(. Still don't know if I'm what I'm going to do with that letter. I want to give it to her, but at the same time, she looks happy with where she is. I don't want to disturb that because it's not my intent. I just want some kind of closure so I can freakin' move on already. It's going to come down to making a choice in the next couple of days and then leaving it at that. I will accept whatever happens as a result. It's time I stopped being distracted and delayed and get on with what God has for me. I may not have a clue what it is, and everything may be seem totally chaotic and messed up right now...but I know that means God is setting me up for something big that's going to hit from out of nowhere. I know that by the end of this I will have an amazing testimony (well, even more so than already) of what God can and will do. It's all just a matter of timing (ugh, lol).Other than that, I'm gearing up for another long week. Tomorrow I work, so I don't get to go to my grandparents like I normally do for labor day (yay for working retail), and then I have volleyball practice. Tuesday is the same, but it's a game instead of practice. I'm off Wednesday. Thursday and Friday I close, so I miss the Friday night service. I'm off Saturday, and I work Sunday. So, it's going to be two weeks at the earliest before I get to go to church =(. I think what God is trying to get through to me is that I don't need church to experience His presence, but at the same time, I really, really don't want to miss what's going on. However, I know that this is all part of my "Process of Glory", and God will honor the fact that I'm working.That's all for now. May God give you a good week!Today's song: Breathe Into Me by Red...rock on.
