pressing forward

i cannot comprehend the immense blessings God has placed in my life.
i cannot be grateful enough. nor can i say thank you enough.

i can only reflect His goodness through the integrity of my actions.
and that makes me want to cry and say "i suck at life."

but still i carry on, striving to be something more than myself, something that i can be proud to be, something that even though i'm not entirely sure what it is... its going to be good. i can only pray everyday that the lord would captivate my entire heart and soul to set me on fire with a passion to seek His name first in everything i do. i can only pray that the lord would capture my gaze and set my face upon His so that i trust in Him completely. i can only pray that the lord would stretch me in new ways and provide new lessons everyday that i would not be satisfied with my days until i learned them. i can only pray.

and i can live my life full of the joy he has given me. joy from knowing i'm not good enough and never will be on my own, but that i'm not doing this on my own. joy from being so overly blessed with so many incredible things. joy from his gracious love.
