Being Productive

I'm feeling pretty good right about now..... actually pretty hyped up. :-) I think my computer loves me. I got over 5,000 images off my computer, all of this years photos organized and on their way to being backed up a second time, and the rest of my computer cleaned and organized. Annnnnd, I've been meaning to work on a blog header for a long time now. And yes, I'm more productive in my pj's!  But, I can't really decide what I think of what I came up with for the header. Help me out please! Comment and let me know what you *honestly* think. Thanks yall!

Now I think I'm going to head to bed, and get some sleep before I have to get up for CPR re-cert :-P

Good night!

All figured out

"You have 60 more years of your life! You don't have to have it all figured out by the time you're 18." ~ My sister Amy

Life is a journey and there's never an end! I'm so goofy and get discouraged when things don't get any easier, but you know what? Life could be a *lot* harder!

I think that I should be farther along in my photography business. I think I should be much less selfish. I think I should be more mature. I think I should have a lot more faith, etc. etc. ect. 

But we're called to "fight the good fight." Always. And fighting's *never* easy. We're called to see the Lord. We're called to pursue righteousness. To "work out our salvation". All things that are *still* happening. Present tense. 

I get so impatient and think that things should be done and over. I've fought for a while, ok, now it should be enough. But life will *always* be a fight, and changing my perspective on it made things a lot more clear.

So. I guess I've got life all figured out. ;)

Seek the Lord.

Pursue righteousness and a pure heart.

Obey what He's telling you.

Fight the good fight. (always) 

And love others.

The End =) 

"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.... Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God."

~Matthew 5:6 and 8

Be Still

"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble."

[verse 1]

"Therefore we will not fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountainst be carried into the midst of the sea." [verse 2]

 "though  it's waters roar and be trouble, though the mountains shake with it's swelling." [verse 3]

"Come, behold the works of he Lord, who has made wars cease to the ends of the earth;" [verse 8]

"He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariot in the fire." [verse 9]

"Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!"

[Psalm 46, verse 10]

Let it Go

"I've been holding on so tight // Look at these knuckles they've gone white // I'm fighting for who I wanna be // Just trying to find security.//

"But You said let it go // You said let it go // You said life is waiting for the ones who lose control // You said You would be, everything I need // You said when I lose my life it's then I'll find my soul.// You said let it go."

~Let it Go, Tenth Avenue North
