Love Don't Run

So as you can probably see I have finally thought of a name for this blog. Lessons and Lullabies...still catchy huh? Well the reason is I have realized I learn life lessons just about everyday and the lullabies part comes from the kids in my life. Youll be hearing about them a lot!

This morning I drove the hour and fourty-five minute drive to attend church at Plainview Jesus Name Church. Now let me tell you this is one rocking church and its very special to my heart. Well service was awesome as usual but something happened today that really put some things into perspective for me and get this....it came from a 10 year old girl. Yep, you heard me right God spoke to me today through a little girl. Now let me give you a little background information on this girl. Somer has a pretty big piece of my heart. There has always been something special about Somer. I cant even put my love for her in words and I would do absolutly anything for her. She also comes from a family that is very important to me. I mean these people are some of the best you'll ever meet. Anyway, Somer sat by me in church today and in the middle of the service she hands me a little braclet that says "Besties" on it and says "Youre my best friend and its time for you to come home." Whoa. Not really what you expect to hear from a little girl. Then the thought hit me....I'm a run away. For the past three months I have been on the run. Not literally but spiritually. See I have a tendancy to just take flight when something gets to hard but here is the kicker....With God you can run as hard and fast as you want too but you can never out run God and his plans for you.

Kind of a lot to chew on huh? Yeah, youre telling me.

So all afternoon I have heard her words ringing in my ear and Ive been thinking, want to hear the solution Ive come too? Im sure you do so here goes. The running stops today. My new plan in life is to be still and let God be God, fall into his arms, and put all my trust in Him. Trust that he will mend broken friendships, mend broken hearts, and put all the pieces together. God always works it out for the good of his people. Everyday I am going to wear this "Besties" bracelet as a reminder that Gods plans are the greatest plans and that home is where the heart is.

On a lighter note.....I work everyday this week, have 2 tests due, start my workouts everynight with a personal trainer, have church wednesday night, dance and broadway on Thursday night and girls day Saturday. Pray that I make it through lol...no seriously! :)
