the gist

I'm not normal. I think you'll begin to see that when you start reading.
Normal girls my age are caught up in their new boyfriend or pair of frye boots. But me? I'm caught up in the grace that saved me from eternal destruction and the Man who gave me that grace. To put it simply, I'm crazy about my God.
And that's not normal.

Behind every action, lies motivation. So what's my motivation?
I want to provide everyone with access to see that God loves them. I want people to know the thoughts and conflicts that cloud my naive mind...


...and I like to blog.

As you read these letters, Candice is you. I am writing these letters to you- whoever you may be.

So when you see her name, say your name.

{missing peace}
dear candice,
this wold is such an evil, malicious, vortex of terror. but on the bright side, God is still faithful. i think its amazing that, as humans, we always have to fight with each other. we always want to be right. we always want to prove that our way is the best way. and i have come to find that we will do almost anything to get what we want.
its almost like fighting (not necessarily "war" but just even just debate) is a natural thing. it seems like that because of how society has turned us against each other. society has taught us that we deserve whatever we want whenever we want. (but honestly as sinners, the only thing we deserve is death.) in America today, it has become compleatly futile to settle for what we want. if we want something we will get it...and no one will stop us. if we dont want something, we will brutaly shove it back in the face of whoever dared give it to us and throw a fit about how this isnt what we wanted.
Jesus came to bring peace on earth (hence the Prince of Peace). but we fail misrebly if we try to live in peace in a broken world. it just dosnt work that way.
i pray that you would find peace in the Father alone.
i love you.
love,
sara
