A Journal Entry

I've seen Christ everywhere today! I have the chance to go to camp every day and it's such a blessing! I saw God in everything today my friends, the weather, and the light shining out of everyone's hearts. I also reconnected with God today, I've recently been focusing on materialistic things, and I felt like a mannequin. I kept praying over and over again but I felt as if I had no love behind my prayers, as if I didn't want anything to happen. God answered all my prayers today.

I have a constant need for Christ but I don't always know it. I know he is always there to watch me and help me through my rough times and he has a need for my love. I do love God above all else, and that's the most important thing ever. But most times I am distracted because of everything around me, especially gossip.  I need to be the Christ-like example that I should be.

I always have a tug on my brain and heart pulling me back towards Christ every time. I surrender over and over again, more than all the times you see your favorite characters breaking up and getting back together on your favorite tv show. It's tough admitting that you've been wrong but Christ always accepts your apologies with open arms. That's one thing I love about God he is never willing to give up on us. He is awesome.

This is what I would normally write in a journal. Excuse the madness of this post. and thanks so much if you read this whole post. With love, -Emma
