You Are All I Want, All I Need, Your Everything

Every year when it comes around Christmas time I start to get asked what I want and I have to think about it for awhile. I mean what could I possibly get that would truly change my life? A new iPod, computer, car, or what could really make a difference? There is only one thing that I really want and that is something that I have already been given but have run away from it at my earliest convenience. The gift I am talking about would be love, the love of my Savior. What could I possibly do to deserve it I mean I no where near deserve it or have done anything in order to keep it.

There is a very inspiring skit that I grown to be very connected with. This would be the "Everything" byLifehouse song that was turned into a skit. It pretty much sums up what I do on a daily basis. I get so caught up in this world that I forget about what really matters and that being my relationship with Jesus. I could never blame anything on getting farther and farther away from Him except for the fact that there is sin in this world and nothing will ever change that. What I think is pretty amazing is no matter what I do to run away from Him he will always be there when I need Him. The only thing that can ever effect a person's relationship with God is the person them self. Everyone is responsible for what they do it's called taking responsibility. Now I will admit that there are some situations where you feel there is no other choice then to do what you know is wrong. This is where you must remember that you are never alone and God doesn't put you in a situation you can't control your actions. "Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good—except God alone."Luke 18:18-20 No one is even near being good except for God so all you can do is try your best to be halfway decent and with God's help you will be good and able to over come any obstacle.

"Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak."Matthew 26:40-42 I will be the first one to admit that I am not even close to having a extremely strong faith although through His help I can do anything.
