Oh my I started this like it’s an essay, eeekk

////////////////////

I have come to realize that I am a chatterbox. I have learned to not be so annoyingly talkative when I shouldn’t be (go jay), another thing I feel is that I am way better in writing thoughts down or typing down then speaking them off right off the top of my head. That is one thing I love about my blog. I have always been better to express things through writing. And for those who know me I am always usually super happy, after my morning coffee of course ;). I always just feel happy, that there is joy and fun in all if you make it that way. 

With the subject of talking about me me me in a nutshell, you are probably thinking wow she is just always happy and doesn’t have a care in the world? Well sorry to be harsh but that is FALSE.  And now here comes the part of me talking about writing all my thoughts down. Something that is always on my head is how God is always so good, in all His doings. That what brings me so much happiness, when becoming a Christian this may be the cliché Christian quote but it’s so true, I was changed something about me was completely different. Forgiven, Loved, Saved yes, and it showed in me, the light of Christ shines. It all because of Him of whom I am the happy over-smiley girl.  

butt.... (already feel like I am rambling)

im going to continue by saying I'm a failure I fail and fall short of God, something that sinners are prone to. Its human nature to mess up. That’s no secret. I have at times not represented Christ in me in my daily doings like when I am tired or not feeling too grand I may come off moody and rude. I have made promises handfuls of times, and there have been those many times that I broke them. My aim in life is to live according to God's purpose, after all He is the reason I am who I am. He’s the creator of all and the reason we love is because HE first loved us. (1John 4:19) When I step back and think about that, I pull myself together and get back on the wagon, the way I want and should be living life = all for the Glory of God. And that brings me joy. 

The BEAUTIFUL thing about being humans and knowing humans constantly fall short... whelp, there are like 7,233,432,947 of us. SO I guess that means we aren’t all alone in this thing called life. Being a Christian gives me the heart to know that a perfect Savior who died to forgive us of our transgressions.  That when I mess up, feel that I haven’t been going with what God wants me to, that He died to take the weight of sin off my shoulders to His. That I am continuing in this life being sanctified. With the path of knowing your sin, its important to repent, admitting to the sin and admittance up with an apology. Just like we apologize to our loved ones, we need to tell the most important One of all we are sorry. Our obedience brings him joy, which brings me joy.

The answers we may seek are plain and simple, and found in the Word (Romans 3:23) says it all: "For all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God." Thankfully, 1John 1:9 tells us we are forgiven, yes! "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us of our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 

SO if you are still with me (anyone still there?) When I mess up and ask for full repentance and when I feel so sorry, one thing that brings me right back to knowing His love is that we can accept that we are forgiven. As a believer back to 1John 1:9 we are cleanse from unrighteousness.

 If God's grace is an ocean we are all-without a doubt- sinking. 

That's what brings me happiness. Why I am always so happy is because I have Christ in my heart first before anyone or anything on this Earth. Even when I fail Him and go off track, He is always present and accepting my apology. 

 gotta get back to the lecture on Kim Kardashian public affairs in media
