Transparent.

*Transparency*
1/31/09

Look through the window. 
What do you see?
Bitterness.
Anger.
Pain.
Idiocy.
Shallowness.
Look again!
Tell me what do you see?!
Love.
Peace.
Joy.
Wisdom.
Profoundness.
Same window.
Different days.
Hypocritical?
Yes.
Isn't everyone?
Yes.
Is there judgement?
Hypocrite!
I look through the window!
I see the same things!
Don't you?
Me. You.
Exactly the same.
So look through my window.
What do you see?
A heart that is struggling.
Day in.
Day out.
Knows the Lord's love.
But ignores His commands.
Listens to the devil's whispers.
Falls into the trap.
Remembers her first love.
Falls in to embrace the Father.
Restoration in her heart.
Up and down.
My life.
Transparent.
For you to see.

What Awakens Passion in Me:

The day the world stopped turning.

This is hope, strength, bravery, and loyalty.

Indescribable

"He gallops into the clash of arms. 
He mocks at fear, and is not frightened;
Nor does he turn back from the sword. The quiver rattles against him, 
the glittering spear and javelin. He devours the distance with fierceness and rage."
~Job 39:21-24~

And I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.
- Lee Greenwood
Vietnam Veteran's Memorial, Washington D.C.

Alabama v. Georgia 2008
Crimson Victory 26-23 OT

"O Lord my God, You are very great: 
You are clothed with honor and majesty...
You laid the foundations of the earth,
 so that it should not be moved forever."

Precious.

Beauty.

But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; 
They shall mount up with wings like eagles, 
They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.
Isaiah 40:31

You're the God of this city. You're the King of these people.
You're the Lord of this nation. - Greater things have yet to come. 
Great things are still to be done in this city!

You belong among the wildflowers. You belong in a boat out at sea.
You belong with your love on your arm. You belong somewhere you feel free.
-Tom Petty

"Some people live an entire lifetime wondering if they've made a difference in the world,
Marines don't have that problem." - Ronald Reagan
Iwo Jima, WWII

Majesty.

When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, 
nor shall the flame scorch you.
~Isaiah 43:2~

Above all else guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.
Proverbs 4:23

"This will be written for the generation to come, 
that a people yet to be created may praise the Lord."
~Psalm 102:18~

This Inspires Me.

~When God leads you to a cliff, trust Him fully. One of two things will happen: He will either catch you when you fall, or He will teach you how to fly.~

Obama​ Issue​s Dire Warni​ng
Prepa​res Ameri​cans for the Futur​e
'​Could​ Becom​e Drama​tical​ly Worse​'​

hmm. I find this sligh​tly ironi​c,​ no?

anywh​o,​ "​Presi​dent-​elect​ Barac​k Obama​ warne​d of dire and lasti​ng conse​quenc​es if Congr​ess doesn​'​t pump unpre​ceden​ted dolla​rs into the econo​my"​

if I'm remem​berin​g corre​ctly,​ from my econo​mics class​,​ this won'​t help one littl​e bit.

What crack​s me up is this poll.​ I know these​ thing​s don'​t reall​y depic​t the actua​l opini​ons of a lot of Ameri​cans,​ but it does somew​hat portr​ay a small​ perce​ntage​ of their​ opini​ons.​

"How much faith​ do you have in the incom​ing Obama​ admin​istra​tion to turn the econo​my aroun​d?​
A lot 35%
A littl​e 34%
None at all 31%
Total​ Votes​:​ 218,​756"​

These​ are the peopl​e who voted​ him into offic​e to help our econo​my and their​ confi​dence​ in his abili​ty to do somet​hing about​ it is split​ 3 ways.​ We can round​ it off and say 33% for each group​.​ Reall​y?​ All that talk about​ how Barac​k Obama​ was going​ to "​save"​ our natio​n from it's horri​ble demis​e,​ and of these​ peopl​e who took this poll,​ we only have 33% who reall​y and truly​ think​ that he can fix the econo​my!​ Well.​ I've said it befor​e,​ and I'll say it again​.​ Ameri​cans are so dedgu​m fickl​e!​ We chang​e our minds​ every​ 5 minut​es.​ This is proof​ of it. It's also proof​ that Ameri​cans don'​t know anyth​ing about​ gover​nment​.​ It's proof​ that no one knows​ their​ const​ituti​on and their​ right​s as well as they think​ they do. It's proof​ that they would​ rathe​r have the gover​nment​ care for them - leadi​ng to a Socia​listi​c Ameri​ca.​ And they will blind​ly get there​.​ It's the blind​ leadi​ng the blind​.​ The few peopl​e who actua​lly know how our gover​nment​ is suppo​sed to run, tend to be Conse​rvati​ves.​ And every​one is fed with us! So no one will liste​n.​

Anywa​ys,​ thoug​ht I would​ post a littl​e comme​ntary​.​ =)

have a good day!

Randomness

Hmm.

I have learned a lot about myself this year. I'm finally not ashamed of my candor. I am not afraid to speak up. I am finally coming back to the place where I am as transparent as plastic wrap. =) I have learned to not let people shove me back to second place. My ideas, talents, opinions... are worth being heard. I will no longer let myself fall into that pit where I become lost. Lost to myself. There is only one place where I am me. There is only one place where I am not ridiculed or condemned for my actions. I no longer have to be insulted, humiliated, and disrespected into submission. God didn't create me to become a mistake. He created me to become a conqueror. I have made my decision. I have chosen my path. Now, it's time to follow that path and see where God takes me on it. 2008 is the past. 2009 is now my present. I will not allow the devil to use my circumstances, the people I'm around, media, or any other thing to separate me from my purpose.
