Learning

Here I am again!!

The last week or two (or more) I have been doing quite a bit of soul searching. I've been doing a biblestudy about the names of God, which has been absolutely great. It was such a good way and a new way to grow deeper with God and to learn more about his attributes and characteristics. The women who were in this biblestudy with me were awesome!! I didn't know them all, but it was good to get to know new women who want to dig deeper and grow closer to God. We got to hear about people struggles and triumphs in their life and walk with God.

Many times in my life I've felt like I've kind of just mosied along in my spiritual life, but more recently I've felt a longing to get deeper with God. I sometimes feel a little guilty when I hear peoples stories about their struggles and how it grows them close to God. I think about how easy I have had it. Granted their have been times of hurt and little struggles, but not like alot of people have had it. I sometimes think how can I understand and support people when they go through tough times if I haven't had as much or many things happen in my life! I find that I feel myself searching for a purpose because of this. I realize that I should be thankful for this and that I should still be able to grow closer to God even though I haven't gone through really super tough times!! It has made me realize that I need to be searching God for everything no matter what my circumstances good or bad. I also realize that if I'm not in God's word now how will I be able to get through tough times when they come!
