Our God is greater, Our God is stronger!

Hi. I'm talking to no one... but that's okay.
I haven't blogged since February... Wow. It's been a long time. Lots of things have changed. I've graduated. I got my first real boyfriend, and got dumped by said boy. I'm still at my job. (Okay, it hasn't changed, but it has. The workers have, anyway.) But most importantly, I've gotten close to God. I finally realized just what an amazing God He is. As Louie Giglio said, "i am not, but i know I AM." I don't know how this happened... I just know that I fell in love with the God of the universe. It started after I got dumped by said boy. I was talking to a friend, and I told her how tired I was of not caring about anything, least of all church. I didn't care about God, or the church anymore. And I was sick of it, because I just had nothing to live for or look forward to. So, I started reading this book I had been told about called "Crazy Love". I thought, "Okay, this will be a good book."

I had no idea.

You see, I started reading, and discovering, and realizing who God is. He isn't just someone we can take our problems to and expect Him to poof them away. No! He isn't just someone that loves us more then we could ever imagine, although He is that too. No! He is so much more than that. He is essential to everything we do, every day. He is LIFE. I don't mean that as a cliche, or exaggeration. I mean that literally. He says he wants ALL of us. ALL of our lives.

He died for us, let's be a generation that lives for Him. <3

Love,
Kayla
