A Personal God

Well, time for another post. I'm not too good on the whole posting everyday, my creative writing class uses all my energies...lol. anyway, back to my posting. Have you ever had a problem or a situation that you have, and it's kinda like the thorn in you flesh, kinda like what Paul talks about in the Bible. Or is just doesn't stop. Well, I have one of those. and well, actually several, but the one I'm talking about, I have recently found a solution that came to me, and I wish it would have come about a year ago. But this problem or I'll say situation, has been a big part of my life for a while and only recently, I have been able to deal with it properly. Now, I don't know what's going to happen, but for now, I know I have done all I could, and I can only sit back and pray. One of my friends came to me yesterday and mentioned that he could help out if I ever wanted him to. Well, I was like, here is the time and day and please feel free to. Then the next day, another answer, or solution came my way. Now, I feel much better about this thing, and the only possible thing I can do, is to sit back and watch what happens. I like this. To me, this shows God is watching, he is hearing my prayers about it, and he cares enough to help me with it. Even though it took awhile to get to this place where I can sit back and relax, I know there must have been something that God was waiting for in order for things to work out like this. I love when this happens. To me, it's really sweet to watch when it happens to your friends, or someone else, but when it happens to you, you realize that God is a personal God and he cares.

My Title

So, I was thinking about my blog title: Let it be. When you first look at it, you don't really know what's going on with it. Like, it could be taken as, let it be, don't worry, don't change anything. Kinda like when there is a problem and you have a passive person who is like, just let it be.

But that's not what I was meaning. Has anyone heard the song, "Let it be"? You were letting a dream happen and you were letting the dream be, happen. That's what I meant by the title. I think it's a powerful message and it completely true. You should listen to the song, then you will understand what I'm saying. But, on the subjects of dreams, you are a little child, and you have this big, or even small fantasy of something you really, really want to do, when the time is just right, usually when you are just a little older. This is were parents come in. If their child trusts them enough (and they should) to tell his/her parent about this dream, the parents need to be CAREFUL in not hurting that child. Because as you all know, little kids have interesting dreams that they want to come true. And if a parent does it enough times, is callus to that child, then sooner or later, that child wont dream. This happens. And I think this song just kinda shows a hope in a child's dream.

But there is ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with dreams. Even if they are wild. If the kid is young enough, they will learn to dream good dreams with the help of Godly parents, but if parents aren't too sure what to do with their kid who want to be a ninja cowboy and it's a girl, then there isn't any point in scolding the child for not understanding that it's not really possible. It all depends on the age of the child. But yeah, I'm not an expert on child raising, and I know I didn't cover everything on this subject. That's okay. I'm just thinking about it. I absolutely love little kids imagination. It is super funny and completely real to them. And they don't care what you think...lol.

Welcome ;)

So today, as I was setting up my blog, I was looking through some things I had written on the computer to see if there was anything that I could use, there wasn't but, it got me thinking. Some of the writing I found was on my email notepad and it was a journal type thing that I had used last year. I started reading some of it, and I soom realized that the subject was still a problem today. And the writing happened like more then a year ago. Then some of the problems that I wrote about did change. I don't know, but sometimes things moves (change) so slowly and other just at the blink of an eye.
Yeah, I don't know, it just got me thinking about it. (Now I sound like Thomas....lol)
Anyway, welcome to my blog. Feel free to laugh, smile and love. This could be a pretty ramdon blog, just to warn you, and I have HORRIBLE grammer problems, so don't jugde...lol.
Anyway, enjoy.
