Progress...

I thought that I would give you all a little update on the progress of my book. I am currently about halfway done organizing and imputing all of the little details into the computer. When I am done with that, which will probably be within the next month, it will be easier to sit down and actually do some more of the writing. Getting my brain organized with all the facts is half of the struggle!

We still only have an internet connection in the bathroom of our house, so it is difficult to be "actively" posting. Hopefully we will get complete internet capabilities in the next few weeks.

I pray that the Lord is blessing all of you with strength and peace.

No Internet...

I am terribly sorry about my lack of posting in these past few weeks! We are currently without permanent Internet access, so I won't be posting until we get access. I hope all of you are doing well! God is doing some amazing things in my life. I can't wait to share when I get back on. Have a wonderful week!

Unbroken Gaze

"May my life be

one unbroken gaze

fixed upon the beauty

of your face"

~Vicky Beeching

May this be my prayer...my hearts cry...my lifes purpose. That I would have a strong unbroken gaze that is forever fixed upon the beauty of my precious Savior's face. That nothing else would ever matter as much as God's approval and His smile on what I am doing and who I am becoming. So often I am overcome by trying to please the world and everyone in it. Trying to match the stereotype of a "good" teenage girl, I continue to strive towards an unattainable image that really doesn't matter in the scheme of eternity. I am finding, as I continue to walk down this journey that we fondly refer to as "life", that the only thing that truly matters is whether or not my gaze is fixed on Christ. When my eyes start to wander off of the one who gave me life, is when they start to glimpe darkness and unsatisfaction. When I turn to the one who has existed since before the fabric of time, I find my satisfaction. I find the one who completes me and fulfills me. I find salvation and forgiveness. I find everything that this world doesn't offer. I find something that can't be bought for any price. I find unconditional love. Do you know how many girls spend their entire lives looking for unconditional love? If only they knew that it is just a prayer away. My gaze must remain unbroken; I cannot afford to lose sight of the one who first lovingly called me to Himself.

"Beholding is becoming

so as you fill my view

transform me

into the likeness of you"

~Vicky Beeching

This is my prayer Lord Jesus. May I live a live of holiness until your majesty is revealed. May I ever be captivated by you. May my life truly be one unbroken gaze fixed upon the beauty of your face.
