shaving.

As gross as it sounds, I shaved today for the first time in a couple of months. A few layers of nair and a actual shaver later, and my legs are silky smooth. You may be wondering why I am telling you this. Because when I walked out of the bathroom, I felt clean and I felt like a new person. An I relized that I missed the feeling of being clean in the eyes of the Lord. I know I'm human and were going to make mistakes, but when we repent everything is okay again. I miss the relationship I had with the Lord and I am glad I chose to go back.

Growing up in the same school for ten or so years, learning about God all day, chapel on Wednesdays and bible study in my free time is who I used to be. Then I moved and completely pushed aside everything that I was tought and grew up on. I can't tell you how much I regret putting God on the back burners of my life. Only praying in times of distress and all othere times have a fxck it attitude. I fell off the wagon and God got my attention and got me back on it in a HUGE way.

It only takes one life changing event to open your eyes. I know I've messed up, I admit it but now I am back on the right path where I belong. I used to make smart comments about a friend of mine who in a way was just like me. She fell off the wagon and it took one major slap in the face for her to relize things and now I understand where she was. If it wasn't for her and this amazing couple I had the pleasure of meeting, I don't think I would have made the choice to go back to Christ. An I thank her so much for showing me the happiness that I have been craving.

I'm ready for anything. With the Lord on my side and my amazing friends there for me too, anything and everything is obtainable. I've been blind and Lord knows I'm excited to be home. (:
