accidents happen...
So, something I've learned lately, is that sometimes, you really have no control. Sometimes accidents happen, and there is nothing we can do about it. The point is, when those accidents happen, you deal with it, bandage it up, and move on, better and braver than you were before. We can't always stop everything bad from happening, but we can choose to not inflict anything bad on ourselves intentionally. We get upset with every little accident, but it doesn't bother us in the slightest when we cause harm to ourselves. Why is that?

liquid bandaids....what I need is liquid courage
So I've been thinking lately, I'm afraid to kick my problem. I feel like I have slowly begun to define myself by it. I'm just that picking girl, the one with the scars. I think I'm afraid of who I will be without it. What is it like to just be beautiful without bandaids? What will I do instead? How will I fill these countless hours that for over a decade, have been spent picking, and scratching at myself? How do I start from scratch?

I get by with a little help from my friends....DAY FIVE
Today I want you to think about someone besides you. Take a day and stop thinking about you, your picking, or any of your other problems. I want you to stop and encourage someone. It doesn't need to be someone you know really well, it could just be a random stranger at the local K-Mart. Just stop, and say something encouraging to them, show them God loves them, and so do you. You will be surprised how much of an impact it will have.
And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

Late night whispers from the one who is always listening
Okay, so I'm laying here trying to sleep, and I'm hit with something I haven't thought about in a long time....God knows everything about us. Every hair on our head, every freckle, every scar. He not only knows us, but he loves us. Despite everything, he loves is for us, and he knows everything, even the deepest darkest secrets are known to him. How blessed and treasured we are. Good night, friends!
Strong Enough
So you lost all the things you try to keep
Now you're on your knees
You're on your knees
But wait everything can change
In a moments' time
You don't have to be afraid,
'Cause fear is just a lie
Open up your eyes
And He'll break open the skies to save
Those who cry out his name
The ones the wind and waves obey
Is strong enough to save you
Look now is not too late
Lift up your head
Let the rain fall on your face
You're not far from grace
You're not too far from grace
I know the weight of this world can take you down like gravity
I know the current of yourself can take you out, out to sea
But hold on
Hold on
Well.....how did it go?
Today I'm reminded of 1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

So keep on going, my friends. He will never leave you, nor forsake you.
All in Love,
