Speak Life

I just wrote two whole blog posts and did not publish them because they were full of complaints and things that I don't understand. But that's what I do! I write about the complexities of my life. But God has been pushing me to speak life into my situations. So, in this post, I'm going to speak life into all of the areas that have me feeling a bit dejected.

I will get a job that is fulfilling to me. I will look forward to going to work. I will learn and excel. I will make enough money to pay all of my bills (on time) and still have more than enough left over to do simple things like: eat, fill my car up, get oil changes, give abundantly to the church, buy those cute shoes that I've had my eye on, and pick up nice things for my boyfriend.

I will be a wonderful girlfriend and he will be a loving boyfriend. We will learn one another's quirks and learn to agree to disagree. He will not be churlish when we have arguments and I will watch the words that come out of my mouth. Our relationship won't feel rushed. We will take this thing day by day and not expect us to be something that we're not. We are us. And us is what makes this thing unique. He will love me for me and not expect me to be what I'm not. And I will do the same in return.

My relationship with the Lord will grow. I will talk to Him and because of my faithfulness and obedience to Him, he will speak so clearly to me that my ears will hear Him every single time. I will go to Him with everything. My life will be a worship to Him. And He in turn will be pleased with me and eager to fill all of the longing within me.

I will figure out what it is that I want to do and I will act on it. I will not continue to follow all of these dreams only to have the door slammed in my face. And if it is, I will have the wisdom to know which ones to walk away from and which to climb through the window for.

I will express myself. Every single message and feeling that I want to convey will flow out of me like rain from the heavens. I won't stumble for the right words to say. I won't be ashamed or scared of what he/she may think. I will get me back. I will be "confident, I don't give a darn" me again.
