Gods Humble Gift

I really don't know what my life would be like without God's humble gift. Jesus has always been a prized treasure in my heart all my life. I've always felt like I was meant to follow him. He's always been easy for me to cherish. There has never been a time in my life where I have ever casted him out.
I have failed him thousands of times, and put him to the side while I decided to sin. Yet, he has always been in my heart.
Think of your most prized possession you have ever received and think about how you cherished it?
We all have something special in our lives that we have kept for a long time. A thing that never gets out of our sight, it's sitting right there for you to see. You protect it or put it where everyone can notice it. It's our prized possession. A gift we didn't deserve but it was given to us and we shall cherish it forever.
That's Jesus to me. A humble gift I didn't deserve, yet I will always cherish this gift God gave me. When things in my life got bad sometimes dark I never gave up on Jesus. We cannot be separated from his love. No matter if the worst disaster happened on Earth he would be the first person I would go to.
I've embedded him into my life, my heart and my soul. He is my friend, my completeness in life and my eternal savior. God loved us sooooo much he wanted redemption for his children. He wants all of us to be saved from the fires of Hell.
So God himself came down to us through his son Jesus and became our humble gift. God could've built a luxurious hospital with all the great technology ever created. To have his son born there in such a great place. Yet he didn't! He chose a dirty old stable with animals roaming and sleeping in it with every kind of uncleanliness you could imagine. And had his perfect and unblemished son be born there to a humble couple. What an amazing gift from a loving God. I'm humbled every time I hear the story of Jesus being born. To think he could've come down to Earth with great hoopla. He could have arrived in great fashion, but he didn't! He came to life in the hands of a virgin mother and a carpenter. A star was only noticed by three lowly shepherd. No family came and took pictures no flowers were sent. It was just a humble birth in a humble way. Wow!
Tomorrow try to think how great this gift of Jesus really was and still is today. I thank you God for turning the world and it's thinking completely upside down. Thank you for not allowing Christ to never let go of us. Father hold tight to us and please don't let go, especially when we are trying to go another way. Thank you Lord for loving us always!

I am on a rough road!

Sometimes being an adult really stinks! I guess I'll change that word sometimes to all the time it stinks. I really feel I am in this life all by myself. Something is absent in life when it comes to being an adult. I think what's missing is guidance and answers to the questions I have.
When your a child you have parents, grandparents and other people to give us answers to our questions. I really believe that's what is missing in my life. I need somebody to just listen to me. That certain friend or person to guide me through life as an adult. I'm lost right now, I just don't know my route in life.
I feel God is being silent to me right now and allowing me to make the decisions. I'm confused about a lot of things. I don't know why I am at this point in my life, but I am.
I'm just not happy! I should be, because I have everything I need. It's like Satan is making me this way. He's keeping me from being the happy and content person I usually am.
I don't enjoy my job, I'm just plain bored with it. There's no time for play just work and trying to sort out our debt.
I'm not around the right people, I need some very positive people in my life.
I spend most of my time with people at work and they aren't the most spiritual people. I need God right now to give me the answers.
I feel I have no right to complain at all because others are in worst shape than me.
I hope things get better soon. I'm ready for a change in everything in my life right now. I've always heard that those who wait on the Lord will truly be blessed. I guess that's where I stand at this moment. May God bless our lives as we bless the lives of others.
