Blessed

Hello Folks!

From Wednesday until now I have been out of town at a dance competition, and it was so great, so rewarding, it was a blessing.

At the moment, I am exhausted, but I wanted to share some "brain juice", I think that sounded more disgusting then I thought...

BRAIN JUICE:

One) I think my blog is too "textbook"? I strive to write something profound, when really maybe that is not what God is calling me to do today, so instead, I write simply what I am feeling, instead of what I am trying to make myself feel. Cool?

Two) Art - I feel like God gave us the gifts of fine arts, now hold on, I'm not trying to be corny. Let's think this through, this weekend, I honestly had the time of my life performing, and I felt so good and personal with God. The beauty was that I got to share that with a packed audience. I think God created everything good. Agree with me? And sometimes, sense we are human, we ruin and spoil good things, and turn them into ugly things... like the term "brain juice"... I still can't get over that I'm using that, anyway... Yeah, so God gave us these incredible things, like dancing, performing, acting, singing, the list goes on, and this world handed it over to evil. Not cool world, not cool! This weekend just made me realize that everything is a gift from God, and he deserves those gifts to be given back to him. It's totally a form of worship, like just using the gifts he has given us and striving to continue blessing Him. Does this make sense? Because I feel as if this is almost a tired ramble. Let me know what you think. This verse in Hebrews may relate, not sure? But I love it anyway. :)

Hebrews 10:25

- Let's see how inventive we can be in encouraging love and helping out, not avoiding worshipping together, but spurring it on! -

Three) Being blessed - There are certain moments in my life, I'm not certain how to describe them, but you know the hand of God is on the situation you are in. You know that you are being looked after. People call me lucky, I'm not sure I believe in luck, I'm blessed beyond belief, way more than I deserve, but not lucky. I don't know, I just feel like it needs to be said that I appreciate being blessed, I love it. So God, thanks... I appreciate it. :)

I think of the prayer of Jabez, the first line of his prayer was "God, bless me indeed." And God gave him what he asked for. Simple as that. Ask for it.

Anyway people, have a blessed sleep.

Ha, see what I did there?

Night.
