Broken

Today I am so broken. Attitudes I'm shocked by have bubbled to the surface again. I'm holding Christ's hand as He leads me through jungles of my heart that are yet uncharted. I admit that I hate the feeling, the weakness, the desperate need for mercy from God and from those I'm learning to love...but I am so thankful. Do not cut this short dear Lord. Kill my flesh completely.

Friend,

I'm excited to see a post from you since its been a little while since you've updated. At the same time, my heart is burdened a bit by your words. I want to hug your neck... and I cant.. and that stinks. But know, dear friend, that I am lifting you up and thinking of you often. Your work is not in vain, sister and I so admire your courage and your persistence.

"How can a young man (or woman:) keep his way pure? By keeping it according to Your word. With all my heart I have SOUGHT You; Do not let me wander far from your commandments...My soul weeps because of grief, strengthen me according to Your word". (Psalm 119:9-10, 28)

Keep seeking His face...He will not leave you disappointed.

Love Love Love.

Amber

Another word to those reading this burst of negative emotion...
I'm tempted to remove it because I don't like admitting my struggles with sin to who knows who all is reading this, but this is just a glimpse of the very real struggles I have here in the middle of all the really cool stuff that is taking place by God's hand. Naturally I normally post on positive topics, because I hope to edify the reader, but I want everyone to know that God is continuing to show and teach me real love, and that is coming through my death (which is often very painful). Isn't He great?! I love Him so.
