I Want You and Your Beautiful Soul

I was listening to the one Jesse McCartney song that I know, and found within it a love song from God. The amazing things that your eyes will open up to when you least expect it. But think about it - "I know that you are something special. To you, I'd always be faithful. I want to be what you always needed, then I hope you'll see that heart in me." I mean, God wants nothing more than for you to know that, to Him, you are special, and that He will never leave you nor foresake you. He wants to be everything you need - your Healer, your Provider, your Father, your Lover, your Savior, your King, your everything - and He hopes that you will see that he loves you and that He is all you really need. Just think about that for a moment.

Done thinking about it yet? Does it make sense to you now? Am I just that crazy, that I see a message from the Lord in a Jesse McCartney song? Or do I simply see something that you don't? Please tell me that you see it. Please tell me that you understand.

He will never make you cry. Never. Is He crazy for wanting you and loving you the way that He does? He's God, He's not crazy. An outcast, maybe, but not crazy. He doesn't want to waste your time... But here's the thing - God is never a waste of time, He is worth every second, every minute, every hour of your time. Do you see things as purely and lovingly as He does? Do you see the world for what it once was - His perfect creation? And it truly was perfect...

~just dwell on the song thing for a moment~

I only have two more hours of high school left, and they're of Swanson's class - a T.A. period, so nothing to do besides reading my book. Amazing. I've spent years waiting for this week, and here it is, and I'm suddenly baffled by how it happened. Do you ever have that feeling that you know something's coming, and you can see it in your head, and you're ready and waiting, but when it comes, you notice that you never truly expected it to happen? Yeah, that's how I'm feeling right this second. I mean, I KNEW that, of course, high school had to end at some point (and thank GOD!), but now that it's here... It's sort of like, Well, this is nice, God. Thank You, but where do I go from here?, and you're wondering when and how it all ended. *sigh* I guess that all I can really do for now is trust in Him and wait for Him to work in this new chapter of my life - this whole Real World thing (and I certainly don't mean the television show).

But I'm finally done!

Speaking of being done, I just finished yet another journal. Okay, well not quite yet, but I've only got about ten pages or so left of it. No, that is not an invitation to buy me another one. I still have ten more empty ones, and this last one took me over a year to get through. (Yes, I have exactly ten left.)

And I'm almost done with the book I'm reading. Only about 110 left to go! ...Oh, boy...

Anyway, I suppose I should be off.
