free to be me

Whoever said walking with Christ would be easy?
Its amazing how life can just seem perfect one day and flip upside down the next. 
These past couple of months have been pretty unexpected and busy.
But thats life right?
Trying to balance Gods promises, what you think you want, 
while at the same time trying to please your parents is not an easy task.
Its hard but I've been trying to deal.
This past weekend I've decided to re-new my life with Christ.
I went to a morning retreat for my school that lead us into spending an hour and a half in silence just having a date with God. What if I did that everyday? I saw the last date I wrote in my journal. January. Really? Have I ignored God that much to not spend 15 minutes between JANUARY and NOW with Him? Thats ridiculous, the creator of the universe who saved me from every past, current, and future sin deserves more than I could ever try to praise Him. 
I have a lot of decisions to make finishing up the school year.

Cause I got a couple dents in my fender
Got a couple rips in my jeans
Try to fit the pieces together 
But perfection is my enemy
On my own I'm so clumsy
But on Your shoulders I can see
I'm free to be me

On a different note: I went to the Philippines for 2 and a half weeks. A trip that I'll never forget. Spent a little time in the city and most in the province. I don't understand how people here can complain, I can't even begin to explain all the different emotions I'm feelin right now.
