“However, as it is written: “What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived”— the things God has prepared for those who love him—” 1 Corinthians 2:9 NIV
Need I say more?
That verse is so incredibly cool. God has a plan for our lives... and I believe it is good. That doesn't mean there isn't heart ache along the way, but it does mean that he loves us enough to make a plan.
I'd love to know what my specific plan is, but God doesn't work that way. So I continue to surrender to his will for my life and trust that what he has in store is great than I could ever imagine.
I'm passionate about writing. I'm also passionate about my faith. This blog is a chance to combine the two.

Everlasting Life
"Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?"
John 11:25-26
Do you believe this?
I do - wholeheartedly - and I can safely say, that it makes life so much easier. I have no fear of death, because I know what comes after it. I do fear how I might die, but at least I don't fear the death part :)
It makes me so sad for people who don't live with this knowledge... or chose not to believe it. I don't know what it feels like for them. I know everyone has their own beliefs and I respect that. But part of me can't help wondering if there is a certain emptiness to their existence... or a small feeling of hopelessness.
Choosing to believe in his Christ and his everlasting gift gives me hope everyday, no matter what that day brings. It's a liberating feeling.
So - what do you believe?
