I have so much to tell you...

I have around 3 blog entries that are drafts (not for real drafts, but drafts in my head). I really want to share what God has been doing in my life over this past week. The problem is that I will think about what I want to share during my drive to and from work.

If I'm going home, we cook dinner, get stuff ready and then I take time in the Word and prayer getting to know Jesus better (this is not normal for me, sadly, I've let myself get consumed with the business of life...I'll share more when I publish my drafts). By that time, it's almost 10PM and all I want to do is read Prince Caspian and figure out how the Old Narnians are going to ever defeat Miraz!

If I'm going to work, well I can't really write a well thought out entry (I can only write little ones like this one) because, well, I have to work.

All of this to say, I have things to write and I'm hoping I can write at least one post tonight.

For now, I will leave you with this verse that has been on my heart:

Colossians 1:13-22
13For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son,
14in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
15He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.
16For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities--all things have been created through Him and for Him.
17He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.
18He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything.
19For it was the Father's good pleasure for all the fullness to dwell in Him,
20and through Him to reconcile all things to Himself, having made (peace through the blood of His cross; through Him, I say, whether things on earth or things in heaven.
21And although you were formerly alienated and hostile in mind, engaged in evil deeds,
22yet He has now reconciled you in His fleshly body through death, in order to present you before Him holy and blameless and beyond reproach--

“What I believe about God is the most important thing about me.” - A.W. Tozer

Our pastor shared a quote with us this weekend and this, along with the verse above, has opened my eyes to the realization that what I believe about Jesus truly is the most important thing in my life and will shape my future actions...
