Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need and thank him for all he has done. If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. And now, dear brothers and sisters, let me say one more thing as I close this letter. Fix your thoughts on what is true and honorable and right. Think about things that are pure and lovely and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.

Philippians 4:6-8

Thank-you LORD for all that you have done and are doing in my life. Thank-you that you do not give up on me, no matter how many times I mess up.. God I pray you will continue to transform my mind. God take away things if you need to.

Sometimes in this life it is literally a struggle every single day to stay Godly.. I long for the day that I will see my God face to face and I will no longer have to struggle.. pffffttt..

"Why should your majesty think it? My own plans are made. While I may, I sail East in Dawn Treader. When she fails me, I row East in my coracle. When that sinks, shall I paddle East with my four paws. Then, when I can swim no longer, if I have not yet reached Aslan's Country, there shall I sink with my nose to the sunrise..."

"Die before you die, there is no chance after."

A life of a Christian is never going to be easy. If what we believe is not true, then it holds no important, but if it is true then it holds infinite importance. It is either nothing or everything, there is no middle ground. I think this is what God meant when he spoke about being 'lukewarm'.. is it as if somebody is saying that it is true, but holds 'little' importance. This cannot be true! If you have truly found the pearl that is the kingdom of God, you would sell EVERYTHING YOU HAD to buy the plot of land where that pearl lies! If you could see just a tiny glimps of the goodness that lies ahead, there would be no hesitation in your mind about whether this is all worth it..

My God completely rules my life. My loving God, my heavenly father, all that I wish to do in my life is to serve him. Nothing else is worth it. We must completely die to our old selves, and let God transform us into what we were always made to be, something so much better, something so much more satisfying. God has such perfect plans. What an honour to be part of them.
