I love reading other people's blogs, it inspires, motivates, encourages me. A lot of them bring me to tears and I don't even know half of the people's blogs I'm gocking at!!! I'm learning women write such true, real and raw words. Opening their hearts to "some" complete strangers about anything & everything that lays heavy on them. Or just simple everyday stories that still somehow touch someone else.
I know the grass will ALWAYS be or seem greener on the other side, but there are days when I wish I was someone else. Longing to be as equally intelligent, knowledgable, spiritual, creative,etc. But I am realizing slowly this is who God created me to be and if I just let Him...he will use me (little ol' me) in a way far beyond anything I could ever imagine. I just have to surrender!
Yesterday at church one of the associate pastors spoke about surrendering ourselves to God----it sounds so simple, so easy, but I find I'm stubborn & hard-headed and for some reason I tend to learn things the hard way. My heart so longs to please the Lord and to follow Him and let Him LEAD, but for some reason my head/actions/words don't always follow.
Lord, please mold me & shape me into who YOU want ME to be...starting today God; help me surrender my everything to you!!!

I FOUND YOU!!!! I don't know why but I couldn't ever get to your blog? My computer, I'm sure...we do not have a good relationship!
anywho...God and I have been going over this whole surrender thing lately too.
it took me close to 20 minutes the other day just to write those words down about my life: I surrender. It was tough, lots of tears but I so desperatly want to be used as well....so, now that I wrote it, I'm hangin' on for the ride - I guess I'm hangin' on with partners though so that's awesome!
