Crying Days

July 7, 2016

So I haven't written in I don't even know how long. too long. So my summer has been a whirlwind and now I am only a few weeks from going back to school. (I think)

I've never had to worry about paying for it till now but now I am. It made me realize how much I take my education for granted. I always thought it would be so easy to get my education and it isn't. I don't know how I overlooked or overthought that but I did. Now I face the scary idea of losing my education.

While, my parents says it will be okay but I don't know that and it worries me. I hope that I get it all figured out but for now I am just holding it all in. So I'm bottling again. I just keep having faith that God has a plan and only he knows it.

It's really just one of those days where I want to cry for no reason and that seems pointless to me. I also realize that if I don't get it out then it's going to make it worse.

Do you just need to cry today?

xoxo,
Em

Genie in a Bottle

I wonder how many times a day I ask God for something. How many times do I ask for him to do this specific thing so I can love Him more or be a "better" Christian? Most days I don't keep track but when I do, it's too many. I constantly ask for things. I feel like I treat God like a genie in a bottle. I pour in requests because I want this or that out of my life. Then I get upset because I don't get what I want from God. Then I will stop and think, I'm so selfish. Who am I to treat God as a genie? I need to reorder my priorities in life. Such as yesterday. I got so upset at some really small things with my lab or my third class for  school. All these small voices that I couldn't make it. I don't have what it takes to make it through school. I was put school before God. School was my idol. So I started asking God for all the things I needed for school. I put God in a box or a bottle to get what I thought I needed for school. Boy was I wrong. When...

Lust and Loneliness

As I am sitting in Panera eating lunch, it dawns on me that I was having a whole conversation with myself this morning about a post I was going to write. Needless to say, I didn't actually remember until right now. Since I visited my alma mater (that's weird) this past week, I have had to do a lot of self-reflecting on where I am in this stage of my life. Most people, either friends from undergrad or pharmacy school are married, engaged or in committed relationships and I am sitting here single as a pringle. Let me tell ya it does not feel good. However, one of my friends, I'm not sure which told me that to find the relationship I desire that I need to have joy and contentment in this stage. That really got me thinking about where I am and who I perceive God to be in my life. So often, I find myself angry that I prayed for something and God didn't answer my prayer or do so in the timely fashion I had hoped. This causes me to put God in a genie bottle and say that I ...

Even Though

March 22, 2017 Has someone ever said something to you or heard a sermon that you were like "alright, God, real funny?" I had one of those moments in chapel this morning as I heard a couple preach back and fourth in English and Spanish about the power of God's love. Which at first I thought would be so cliche because normally it is and we've heard it before but then a ton of bricks hit my chest. The wife was talking about three kinds of love: if love, because love and even though love and I felt all the air leave my lungs. She said, "even though you hurt me I still love you." That's me. Even though I've spent hours crying about Jagger and how much he had hurt me and treated me horribly in the past four months since Christmas day, I still care. I still ask about his day, I still pray for him furiously and I still want to be a part of his life. I have an even though kind of caring about him. Fricking biscuit farmers, dude!! Why God? How? I can...
