It's official, I am a hopeless romantic. Today was the last day of finals. I have finished my first semester of college! So pretty much everyone on campus has gone home for Christmas break already. But because I have to work tomorrow I stayed another night. Well it is super quiet and no one is around. So decided that I would read a few chapters from this Christian romance novel I have been reading....Bad idea. I ended up finishing the book and balling my eyes out. I actually had to remind myself that it didn't really happen! I am such a geek. But when you have no romance in real life the next best thing is a Christian romance novel. Can I get an amen!?
But anyways I had a great night by myself. Just praying and singing worship songs as I packed up my things for the long break. God always knows when I need a little alone time, which is exactly what I needed tonight. It was refreshing to have some time by myself, with no interruptions. Thank you Jesus! You are so great!

Hopeless Romantic

He is the Only Thing Worth Trusting
We cannot revert to killing our heart. Instead, we must accept the first lesson in the journey of desire: ecstasy is not an option. We must have life. The only problem is in our refusal to wait. That is why God must rescue us from the very things we thought would save us.
John Eldredge, Journey of Desire
It amazes me how we put our trust so easily in man, but when it comes to giving up our life to God it is such a struggle for us? God promises that he will never forsake us, or leave us alone. He says that he will love us no matter what we have done. He will always take us back. He will always stand up for us. But what does man have to offer? A hug? A kiss? A Broken heart? The truth is we have nothing to offer, because everything that we have comes from God. So why is this world so afraid of putting their lives in his hands?
What an AMAZING God he is!
