Do you know what I take for granted so often? Just how AWESOME God is. Sometimes I forget, which of course sounds terrible, but it's true. Every once in a while something will remind me just how awesome He is when I am silly and forget.
Just think about it. You don't have to do anything special to talk to God. You can be sitting in class, laying in bed, watching TV, in the shower and you can call on Him. Nothing fancy. No special ceremonies. Nothing. Just you and God chatting, wherever...everywhere.
Not only can you talk to Him whenever you want, but He has your life in total control. No, it definitely does not always feel like it. I'll admit, sometimes it feels like my life is in complete shambles (don't believe me? Just go further back in this blog. Messy.). I have come through every single little thing better and stronger and more faithful than I was. That is so awesome.
Finally, to summarize this all beyond belief, I didn't have to ask God to do any of this for me. He just does it. Because He loves me that much. Even though sometimes I am kinda rude to him, and sometimes forget about his awesomeness, and sometimes I only call on Him when I think I need Him (even though I couldn't survive without Him), and sometimes I just suck. He is there. No questions ask. I'm never alone because He is always there and that is the most comforting thing on the planet. He sent His son to die for me even though He knew what a mess I would turn out to be.
Awesome. Awesome. Awesome. If you don't believe me, I really think you should try Him on for size, because you know what, whether you like it or not He is with you right now. No seriously, he is sitting right next to you, looking over your shoulder, reading this blog He knew I was going to write before I even started writing it. He is here. He cares. And you don't have to ask politely for Him to help you out (although it would be nice).
Song of the Moment: Awesome God by Rich Mullins (My God is an Awesome God who reigns from heaven and earth with Wisdom, Power and Love. My God is an Awesome God.)
Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith, and in purity.
