Glorified. What does that even mean?
Anyway, I guess I'm starting to feel like I'm rather glorifying myself when I blog.
The way we live is so important. God has showed me over & over that our lives are a very great witness. Literally everything we do, someone sees, & everything we SAY will come out in our actions. When I write, I want to LIVE it, not just write to glorify myself or make myself seem all spiritual. I am so guilty of it that I'm wondering if I should stop blogging altogether.
I don't even know where to end this or what I'm going to do. I can only say that God knows my true motives & has my heart. It's sad to say that even I don't understand myself completely. I just want to say that I want to live a life that glorifies Him. I don't want to compromise that, & I don't want to be a hypocrite. I just want to be the girl God created; the shy girl He made. I'm so excited for all He's done in & through me. This is been the best of all my 17 years.
I am saying now with all glory being to HIM that my life has been full of a lot of crazy emotions & experiences. And boy was it a wild ride! I like to think of this as being the "Beginning" year for me because it's the year I started homeschooling, & discovered my love for a whole bunch of other things.
I have not one Christian friend I talk to/see on a regular basis, & here (on blogger) God has given me so many! If you do have amazing friends in person who encourage you & help you grow closer to God, don't take it for granted.
I know my time will come!
Well, I hope you have a great Thanksgiving! Talk to you soon, my friends.

Hugs and prayers to and for you about friends. I've been in the same boat, praying and hoping and feeling lonely. But don't give up hope! This year God has given me an amazing friend - sweeter than I could have dreamed of. I know He will provide for you as well, in His perfect timing.
Love,

Hey friend. I know it's not easy! I've been the exact way... we just left our church after eight years and it has been really difficult! There's no way beating around the bush that it is easy.. because it sure isn't! Keep remembering that God is with you no matter what. He is the true best friend that sticks no matter how many others fail. Hugs to you! Keep fighting. Keep going. You are loved friend!
Hey, I'm sorry. I can tell it's been rough. I lost almost all of my friends when we left a church and thats when Lys and I grew closer. I'm sure you'll find a BFF that's (nearly;) as great as mine!
Can totally relate to the whole lack of strong Christian friends. But there's coming a day when they come on the scene I know!
