changing it up.

i have decided my blog needs a change. when i started my blog over a year ago (what?!?) it was meant to record my journey through my first year of college. well that year is over, and this summer has been challenging, and already over the past few months, my blog has centered around the things i am feeling and thinking, and more specifically God.

i have decided to rename my blog "living a life of desire." this name was inspired by a book i am reading right now, by John Piper, called "when i don't desire god: how to fight for joy." i have constantly struggled with finding joy in my relationship with him. it seems that no matter how good i seem to be doing, something always springs up to distract me from Him. I know this is the work of satan, but I don't feel capable to fight him off. as I search and seek, i pray He will make himself known to me. already, he has used multiple events of my summer, to confirm the fact that he is present and active in my life. NEVER has he forsaken me, even through the numerous times I have forsaken him. and for that i am grateful.

i have decided to blog more regularly, and to share with you the ups and downs, the trials, and the failures of my christian walk. god has given me a story, so that i might share it. he never meant for us to keep our testimonies of his love to ourselves. i pray that my blog might be a blessing in someones life. and may the repeating theme of my life be the faithfulness of christ. to him be the glory, forever.
