New blog!

Ok, this might be a little crazy on my part, but I've started another blog. My goal is to be able to post on different blogs depending on subject & content. It is not to see how 'multi-task' i can become. I just want my main blog to be about regular life events, my kitchen one is my vent & rejoice about health & fitness struggle & victory, my song one is a devotional (which I might delete since I post that stuff on here. And my photography blog..well thats self explanatory. But the new one?




I tend to do these long posts on all the new baby, eco, accessory, gadget stuff I find. All that will now be on my new blog!

Please don't feel you have to follow those too. Its more for my own sanity! ha!


Here is the list:

How can I save them?


I am so grieved by friends that I see, choosing to live their lives vacant of Him.
I want to wave my arms, yell at the top of my lungs, 'WHY?!'
What is more important than Him?
How can you know peace or have hope without Him?
There is a knot in the pit of my stomach lately because I don't know how to save them.
I don't know what words will make them see.
What will turn them back?
And then I remember...I am not God.
I am not the one that can rescue & restore.
I cannot ransom, redeem or renew a life from the grave.
Only He can.
And He hears this heart breaking.
He sees His Prodigals.
And He will call them home.
I only have to believe!
