"Lord... give me the gift of faith to be renewed and shared with others each day. Teach me to live this moment only, looking neither to the past with regret, nor the future with apprehension. Let love be my aim and my life a prayer." ~Roseann Alexander-Isham

Calling Out...

As I am driving home from class with my heart aching in so many ways, yet not really knowing why. I can't stop crying right now... I feel empty and alone, yet knew I had to come home and finish some entries that I have started....to let my heart be poured out...for when I am here writing it is usually when I have met the RISEN CHRIST in something.... I saw GOD clearly.... I know it is a place where I meet HIM and am with HIM, yet aren't I always in that place...

All I know is I was crying out...repeatedly calling out that beautiful wonderful name: JESUS...JESUS...JESUS. HE is all I NEED, and ALL I WANT, Nothing else I could ever desire can compare to HIM. I only want to GLORIFY HIM...yet, I fail constantly at it.

And though I KNOW HE is here with me right now at this moment...I want to feel HIM, and I can't, the noises inside are so loud....I keep calling JESUS, do I not feel HIM, because I have an expectation to how I want to meet HIM in this moment....'cause I KNOW as soon as I speak those words, JESUS...HE is right here, but since HE lives in my heart....HE is ALWAYS here.

In this moment, I HURT sooo much and truthfully as I have written earlier.... I feel more alone right now than I ever did in Korea.

I am thankful for Klove....The two songs that were on when I was crying out the most to GOD in the car were:

"Bring the Rain" by Mercy Me and "Call My Name" by Third Day

I KNOW HE came when I called HIS Name.
