I sit here wondering if someday some one could really love me for all that I am. I mean I don't know what its like to be in love with another person. I can only dream, but dreams seem to fade the older I get. I look around me and I can't seem to find a couple so devoted to the Lord that they haven't loss sight of the love they first had for each other. Call me crazy but I want to find a person that helps me grow closer to the Lord on a daily basis. I want to look at him every day and find something new about him whether it be good or different. I never want us to give up on each other. I want to be pursuing him until the day that I die.
I want someone who loves the Lord more then he loves me, and I want my confidence to be in the Lord solely. I dont want him to need me I just want him to want me.

HOPE.
Today I had a feeling of loneliness, that some how I am missing something. I can't help but look around me and see all the hurt,brokenness and corruption. It hurts to know that people are dying every second from hunger,common cold,AIDS and from unclean water. What kills me the most is that not enough people care to do something about it. I know that we cant fix it all but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to help in some aspects. As the body of Christ we are called to serve. If we can't physically go over there and help them that doesn't mean we can't support someone else to do so or what about something so little that can move mountains, prayer. When is the last time you prayed for something other then yourself, whether that be your job, finances, patience, or safety? There is world out there that needs our help. What is Jesus asking you to pray for? Is it the orphans in India, the women being trafficked in Cambodia, for people to have clean water in Africa, the persecuted churches in Asia or what about your neighbors?
This life that we were given is not about us, no matter how the world tries to trick us into believing that, we are here for something so much bigger then ourselves. We are here to share the Good news of Christ so that people who are broken can know the love that God has for them.
I found that my hope is not in the world but is in the Lord, this earth is not my home, my home is with my Father in heaven.
After you start praying for your brothers and sister around the world, you don't feel so alone.
Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever. - 1 John 2:15-17
