I think it is completely foolish how we as humans seek to fill a void that only the Lord God can fill. Crazy thing is, half the time we know that the Lord is the answer to our problems, but we choose to avoid Him. I chose to write about this today because it was heavy on my heart, mainly because I am a culprit of this crime as well. We tend to believe that there should be no rush when it comes to building a relationship with the Lord. "I have plenty of time." But that's definitely not the case. One of the things that I'm currently struggling with is making the Lord an active part of my life. In all my ways, I want to acknowledge Him. Perhaps the main reason why I struggle with this aspect is because I do not make time for Him. As humans, we make time for what we want to make time for, so I know there is no excuse for why I'm not reading my bible daily, praying constantly, and just talking with God casually. Those that truly have a heart for God should desire this type of relationship. I want to get to the point where, before I make any type of decision, no matter how small, I would consult God. I want to hear his voice and be able to recognize it. I guess the main reason that I'm writing this blog is more geared for my own personal and spiritual development. Join me on this journey.

Finally Doing What We Were Asked To Do...
This blog is a long time in the making. In January 2013, God laid on my heart to further seek Christ and spread the word of God. And after almost an entire year, I am finally doing what God asked me to do.
On that particular Sunday, God laid on my heart to a start a blog with my best friend, Bee. Bee and I have been friends since 2004. We grew closer because we were like minded. We prayed before every exam, encouraged each other, talked hours on end about what God was continuously doing in our lives. When we went off to college, our bond never broke. We've prayed each other through every rough place and celebrated each of God's blessings.
So we are just two college girls that aren't ashamed of praying, not ashamed of saying that life as a college Christian student isn't easy, not ashamed to say that sometimes we find ourselves running from Christ instead of running towards him, however we realize at the end of the day that God still loves us unconditionally, that seeking Christ can't just be a monthly or once a week activity but rather a daily commitment, and that getting down on our knees hasn't gone out of style. In fact, we realized that when we got down on our knees and prayed, we accessed God's limitless blessings.
