I worry about the future.
I worry about my friends.
I worry about my family
I worry.
I often ignore phone calls.
I repeatedly make the same mistakes.
I spend to much time trying to please people.
I have difficulty saying no.
I'm afraid of dissapointment.
My priorities aren't exactly straight.
I can be obnoxious.
I can be shy.
I am impatient.
I am picky.
I always need to be in control.
I have issues with commitment.
I only want what I can't have.
I don't love enough.
I don't read my Bible enough.
I don't read anything enough.
I am apathetic towards an amount of things.
I have too much clothes.
I am bitter.
I am selfish.
What I know-
I am forgiven.
Thank you God, for forgiving me.
I am so lost. Help me to seek you more.
You are all I need. You are all that matters.
Why do I forget that?

| I'm really beginning to appreciate my life. I'm so lucky. I have some great friends. Some that are new, some that I've had for a long time, and some that I hope to get to know more. I'm surronded by only encouragement. I have everything I need and want. I don't know how or why I'm just so blessed. I love starting my day off with Diff Physics and a cup of coffee. I love singing twice during the day. I love reading my AP US History book and taking notes (maybe that's a stretch, but it can be interesting). I love having the ability to run every single afternoon. I love being able to make puppy chow and always have people to share it with. I love watching The Office when I'm supposed to be doing my homework. I love staying up so late on the phone that the next time I'm wired on only caffiene. I love being able to help a friend out. I just love it. Ahhhh, it's so cool to know what's in store for me now and in the future. I'm so content with where I'm at, and even though I've been taking some unexpecting turns, I just love living each day. So unworthy, Kristin | | |
| It's hard when what God wants isn't necessarily what you want, let me tell you. But trusting God doesn't always mean taking the easy way out. | | |
| Well, howdy. It's been awhile, and for those who still read this homie g, I'm doing fantastic. School's brought upon much work, a lack of sleep, and some 28934982347982348792 miles of running. (exaggeration? not quite )
However, I'm liking school, living on not much sleep, and loving the running. It's been so great.
I can honestly say that my life's been a lot better since I've stopped worrying about it!! God's taking care of everything for me, my direction and priorities are finally, for the first time in my life, straightening out. I've found who my friends are and finding value in my family, which is encouraging me to be the person I've always wanted to be. My life is consisted of cross country and studying, but when I get the time I talk to Bryce, and when I see him it's even better. He's pretty great to me, a good guy, and I'm real happy with him and where it's going!
I've been reading through Ephesians, and I think I'll share this- "Be careful, then, how you live not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every oppurtunity because the days are evil. Therefore, do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is."- Eph. 5:15-17
I loved reading that, because it's SO awesome to know that God has a will, a plan, and that by living the smart way we can make this crazy life worthwhile. Having a relationship with Jesus Christ truly changes everything--I'm so glad I'm still getting to know him more. | | |
| It's so easy on a run to see a hill ahead and think of how long it will take, all the energy that you will need to make it to the top, and how much it will hurt. You can take all the time to ponder these small thoughts and soon to be facts, but pretty soon, Guess what? You're going to make it to the hill. It's going to be right under your feet. There comes a time where you have to work up whatever it takes to make it through. You can gripe about it as much as you please, but eiether way it'll be there. The hill doesn't move and you keep on moving towards it. It's inevitible.
What about if you see the hill as an oppurtunity to give your best effort? To run your fastest. To work your hardest. To take it down so quickly that you won't have any time to think about how much pain it's causing you. What if you are so trained and prepared for the hill that you can make it to the top without even knowing that it's there? All of these things come to my mind as I think about life.
I can spend all my time worrying about what's next, how confused I'll be, how much I'll cry, how brokenhearted I'll be, how lost I'll find myself. However, it keeps on coming. Whether it be a flat out stretch of nothing or a towering mountain, it's attacking you as you're making your way towards it. You may be exausted at the end, but atleast you'll be a bit stronger then you were before. So you mind as well run it before it runs over you.
So I guess my final thought is, Life, I'm going to tackle you. I'm ready for anything that comes. Life, Bring it on! | | |
