Overwhelmed by a Relentless God!

God has brought me to such an amazing place over the past month that I cannot describe. God is so amazing and faithful to rebuke His children until we are at a place of complete surrender and usable by Him. So many times I let the cares of this world pull me away from my Savior. But He pulls me back by challenging my heart. I have struggled with Pride and Selfishness so much that it became a part of who I am, that I didn't think I could ever change. The truth is Selfishness and Pride are not who I am! Galatians 2:20 has been my life verse since beginning of high school and it continues to ring true today.

Galatians 2:10 I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.

It is so true! This life is not my own! It belongs to God. Pride is sin! Selfishness is sin! I was sinning against the God of the universe! Yet He still loves me and rebukes me until I come back to Him. What a humbling experience. What a loving God!

I am reading "Crazy Love" by Francis Chan. Let me just say if you want to challenge your view of God and have a better understanding of His love for you, then you should read this book. It is amazing!


School is off to a good start. I am taking 12 credit hours this semester.
- Tuesday 5:30pm-8:00pm (College Algebra)
- Wednesday 10:00am-12:30pm (Photography)
- Thursday 5:30pm-8:00pm (InDesign)
- Online whenever I want (Photoshop)

My schedule is a little weird, but I don't mind it to much. I haven't had to much homework so far. It might just be an easier semester. I like all my professors which is a major plus. I love going to school, meeting new people and challenging my brain :)
