So this is Christmas…another year over and a new one just begun. To borrow lyrics from a Christmas song to say something really of no significance, just thought it was a good opener. Here I sit in my bed just one hour before Christmas is actually here. I don’t know if it is all the excitement of the day or maybe it’s because I had one too many sausage wraps that I am feeling the urge to write out all my thoughts. (my stomach just rumbled, I think it must be the sausage) Today was a great day! All the family came over and we celebrated early. TONS of food and wrapping paper were seen all over the house. Now, after the whir and excitement have ceased I think. I think that I think too much. Sorry if my thought process is a little weird…I can’t blame that on the food though J God has and is SO good! He has blessed me with an amazing family and people in it that love each other. I think about where we have been and I can’t wait to see where we will be taken. Did I mention that it is hard to type with fake nails on? Mom and I went to get our nails done the other dayJ Anyways-where was I? Oh yes, future thoughts. Well, I know that for the next couple years I have given them over to God. I mean that I have given myself to serve Him with no distractions, no reserves, and no turning back. I love where God has me, I can say that honestly! I love working, serving, and being in the place that I KNOW GOD has placed me to be in. These are not words that I thought I would ever be saying just even a few years ago. God has done such a change in my life. You may not even have noticed it, but then again you never knew the true Libby. Well, you may have known her but not known what was behind all the hypocrisy. Something that I was thinking last night was this-some people peg my sin and my so called downfall to being in public school, or even to what happened in my family. They would use those things to blow off my actions. Well, I hate that. It was MY selfish choices that I made that lead me into sin. I was already fallen; whoever put me on a pedestal was wrong. But then again I didn’t help the fact by pretending to live the perfect life when I knew I was not. I lied to my own self. The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked, who can know it? And try this on for size-we are all sinners, it’s nothing new that I sinned, we all do. Never think that you are above committing a certain sin. You are NOT above it, it is only by God’s grace that you are given a choice to do it or not. I keep hitting the ‘save’ button so I don’t lose anything; this is just something I don’t want to lose. Well, I think that is all I have in me for tonight. Hey! Forty-five minutes till Christmas!!!!! God bless us, everyone! 24,12,08
