Sailing in the waves: Love God

Love God

Here's yet another book quote for you to read:

Do I love God? Really love him. Not just respect, worship, honor etc. but love Him. I always assumed that I did. It tells me all over the bible that I need to. I know that God loves me, but do I love him?

My friend Katie has a 20(ish) month old son. I'm with him all the time. I really love this kid. I want to hug him tightly and never let go. I always want him in my lap, to walk and hold my hand, to laugh and repeat my words. I love this kid. I don't have that same type of love for him as I do for God. I think I need to change that. I think I need to see God more as that type of father to me, than simply someone I overly respect and honor.

How to Read this Blog

This isn't a blog where you learn how to make your house cute, lose weight, style your hair, dress stylishly or literally sailing in the ocean.

Instead, it's my life in real time, the type of blog where you have to start at post one and move your way to today to really get it the whole picture.

This blog shows the real me, it's where I let out my feelings if they need an outlet, where I process things The Lord is teaching me and share victories he has made clear to me. Where I ask the hard questions and talk about the things on my heart that are too hard to say outloud, that are too fragile to let friends voice their opinion over.

I let my ugly out here often. When I get mad, really mad, I turn here to this blog to tell about it. Sometimes in talking about it, I realize how ridiculous I sound, and see what is actually going on, and I then share that. Sometimes I don't, and the point of the post was just to let it out. We aren't always pretty following Christ, and you get to see that in me here.

This blog is FULL of spelling mistakes and grammar errors. I often don't go back and read over my posts. when I do that, I find myself restructuring my sentences and making myself sound better than I really am. The whole point of this is NOT to do that, so instead you get the typos, hopefully you will still understand what I am trying to say.

I have been learning ALOT in this time blogging and I hope you learn something too as you read along.
