RealityTime



A lot of my journal entries are about contending for the presence of God. The beauty realms of God. I feel like there is a point where you cross into reality, and you've got the beauty and holiness of God's presence in your life. And now how do you steward it is the question. What does daily life look like while loving God with all your being. That is what I want to start to understand and begin living. 

I had coffee with such a cool girl this morning. Her name is Charis and she is from Oregon. She's 20 and she wants to change the graphic design/fashion design world. Although we met so that I could get to know her, and to sort of, I don't know, just get to know her I guess. But I ended up being super encouraged. She came with such a fresh and new perspective on life. She has big plans, t
hat she wants to proceed with. Which is AWESOME. She doesn't just want to stay in Redding forever. HUGE PLUS. Some people are supposed to, some people aren't. 

So life for me is looking like, how do I steward what I have, and how do I live life really WELL while loving God with all my being. It's a fun challenge. Seeing the world for it's beauty. Casting aside
 the CRAP economy and simply praying. Doing my part. Interceding with joy. JOY. That's the key.

 Thankfulness and joy = happy life set apart for GOD.
