Don't Get Comfortable

It really took me a long time to start this blog. I feel it is something God is pushing me to do - I have prayed to him to help me share my faith, I didn't want to sound pushy about it I just wanted to be able to express my LOVE and EXCITEMENT about having God in my life! I wanted to shout it from the roof top, but I was so insecure about putting it on the internet for you to read.

One morning I was getting ready for school and listening to Christian Contemporary music on the tv in my parents living room, I had it cranked up and I was signing and dancing, I didn't really stop to focus on what song was on I just took it all in, then one song came on and I just stopped and I had to know what it was about the song that have me so drawn to it, but that's besides the point.

The Song was "Don't Get Comfortable" by Brandon Heath. I just sat down and listened to the words and it was exactly what I needed at the exact right moment. I have been on this journey with Christ, a very intense journey with God since January, it has been come a part of my routine now, and I was getting comfortable.

Listening to that song was the final decision maker. - I was going to start this blog and my corresponding facebook page to allow my relationship with the Lord the remain fresh, I wanted to challenge myself to write down my feelings, my struggles, my everything! I don't want to get comfortable. 

Make the decision right now to serve God today.

Make the decision right now to serve God today! -- How Amazing and Wonderful is this quote! It is one of the most beautiful statements I've read in a while!

Welcome to my blog!!! Let me start by introducing myself. The basics! My name is Jamie and I am 24 years old! I've grown up all over the United States but currently live in St. Louis, planning to move again within the year but we will see where the Lord takes me! I am not going to lie, I am rather new in my relationship with Christ. In January I decided the direction of my life really needed to change so I began digging deep into the Lords word and really starting growing with him! The change in direction my life has gone has been amazing! Reading the Bible daily and talking to the Lord has been a POWERFUL thing! An AMAZING thing!

I don't profess to be a know-it-all when it comes to the Lord, and I hope no body takes that away from this blog. These words are simply my feelings, a documentation of my journey! A documentation of my progress. I have good days where I am all about the Love of the Lord and I have bad days where I feel like giving up and not continuing on in my quest to fully know the Lord like I want to (most days all I have to do is tell myself to commit to trusting the Lord). I still find myself needing motivation some days, and today when I needed motivation I decided to sit down and rework this Blog, make it all about my journey and make it all about sharing my experience with people, and hopefully having them do the same for me in the future!

I am hoping this website will be a motivational tool for myself to keep going. I sincerely hope people will tune in a read what I have to say, and will help me on my journey! It's going to be a fun ride! The Lord is Great!
