Not really sure what to write today... I've spent most of the day being lazy. It's been my first real day off from work, school, and soccer in like years... I spent the last couple of hours rearranging everything in my house so everything was symmetrical lol...

As far as weeds... my mind is cluttered still... I think I need to take a break and de-weed again... I dunno... I just feel like there is something missing... Like I have this huge void in my life that I can't figure out... I feel like there's something out there that is suppose to fill that void but I'm not even sure what... Idk...

I can tell ya that when I feel that void the Lord is wanting me to spend time with Him...in music...in reading...in prayer...or just in silence...letting Him love me..and me love Him. Sometimes doing nothing is actually being still and letting Him speak to our hearts.

Ask Him to show you what He wants you to know. He will. The weeding, sister...that is done every day. Some of the old ones pop back up and ya have to de-weed again..and ask Him to show you the roots. Taking our thoughts captive takes some practice. When you start to do it, it becomes easier. Replace the ugly with the truth. Keep doing it..over and over.

He will help you. In the book of James it says to ask for wisdom and He will give it to you. It comes from the Holy Spirit through reading, praying, studying, singing...your spirit will reflect what your soul tells it to....so, cast away the ugly, taking them captive...and replace them with God's truth. It's a really good addiction to have...to replace the ugly addiction of tearing yourself down...you are, afterall, His creation..and His child.

In Jesus,
love momo *Halo*
