Why I Write
When I begin to experience struggle in my life, I always run to my escape. I believe everyone should have their escape. By escape, I mean not running from the issue, but yet finding a way to cope with the days of this chaotic world. What is my escape? I write. Writing is where I place all of my emotions in text form of the things I feel or am too afraid to say. When I write, it's truly and honestly not for man. It's for myself and my creator. I write to let go of whatever may be haunting me. It's my escape. When I write, I feel like the sea; free and full of imagination. I share with you my writings because maybe they can help you on your amazing journey with Christ. It's honestly not my writings because they're inspired by the spirit of God. Why do I write? I write because it is what I love and my heart finds peace within it. Ba-Boom. Ba-Boom. Ba-Boom. Making decisions is something we all partake in during life, but how we make the decisions is what makes them different. As a child, I "wore my heart on my sleeve". I was sensitive, indeed, but yet I did not know who I was and whose I belonged to. I trusted my heart and chased after things that were so far away from the love of God. It wasn't until I found myself, and I had a renewing of the heart and the mind, that I took my heart off of my sleeve and began placing boundaries around it. "Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it." Proverbs 4:23 You must understand that your heart is flesh, and if you haven't had a renewing of your soul, then your decisions that you make from your heart is based on YOUR understanding. "Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6 Your heart has a heartbeat, but you have to decide what it beats for. Does it beat for the people who talk about you who are honestly insecure about themselves? Does it beat for materialistic things that will soon fade away? Your heart should beat for the man who shed his blood for you to even hear that heart beat of yours. Once you have truly given your life to God, you love with your heart. God is in the center of my heart. Every decision I make is based on His word. My heart beats His love. His word flows through my body, my soul, and my mind. With my mind and heart, now spiritually influenced, I can make decisions because they are not based on my understanding, but His. With God in the center of my heart, I admire myself because I know that I am His. If you cannot love yourself, then how can you expect someone else to love you? There is a seed inside of you. You water that seed with admiration and respect for yourself, remaining in a humble position while not being prideful or egotistical. You must water that seed everyday, for it will bloom into a beautiful/handsome flower. Once it is blooming, God will send you someone who will help water your flower with you. If you don't find love in yourself, then one: your seed will die, and two: you will never be able to love anyone truly because you wouldn't have experienced true love for yourself. [reference: "Dear 'Singles'"] God is love. We love because He first loved us, but we have to accept that and believe that we are special and created by the hands of an artist who never makes a mistake. And please note, that before you give yourself to God and wave good-bye to your fleshy ways, your heart is dead. It beats, but not spiritually. It's dull; it beats pints of lies that take over your body. It isn't until you have given your life to Christ, that the beats of your heart mean something. With a renewed heart, it's alive and full of power to soar in a world who's still walking, to jump in a world who's still on the ground, and to live in a world who's spiritually dying. It's time to be spiritually resuscitated. Why does your heart beat and who does it beat for? This life is not yours. Your heart is not yours; It belongs to our Creator. It belongs to God. "God is within her, she will not fall;" Psalm 46:5
