If you know me, you know that I LOVE to journal. I do it every day, and it helps me to grow leaps and bounds in my spiritual walk. Every once in awhile I write something "blog worthy" meaning it is poetic and not too personal. I thought I would share one of those times when I did:
I am sitting in my room. My room is a mess. My life is a mess. But it is a beautiful mess. It seems so weird to say that my life is a mess because I love my life and it seems so perfect right now. But it is not. I sin. It stinks, but it is true and I can not stop it. So why try to sin less? You would try to at least slow down the train that is about to hit you, even if you knew that you could not stop it, would you not? I do not know if that is the right illustration, but it can work. At the end of our lives we will all have different sized train wrecks and we will all be judged on them by God. How big our train wrecks are and what they look like will not determine our place in eternity- a person who does not know Jesus with a small train wreck will still go to hell and a person who knows Jesus and has a big train wreck will go to heaven. What is based on our train wrecks is our crowns we are given- the ones we will give back to God. I want to work hard to get those crowns so I can give them back to God.
I hope you enjoyed having a peek inside my journal. The writing is raw and not always grammatically correct, but it is what is in my heart and I hope I conveyed the overall message to you.
