Lights will guide you home, and ignite your bones...

... and i will try to fix you.


One of my favorite songs is Fix You by Coldplay, and just as it says, I try to fix the people I care most about. The one thing I have reacently come to terms with is that I  can't fix them, not on my own at least. They need to be the ones doing the fixing, asking for God's help. No one here are earth can make it all better. Even in my own life I've discovered this. I need God. There is nothing I can make better without him or his help at least.


Another aspect of that is I have my own sins, my own troubles I need to make better before I can go play heart doctor and help anyone else. And i couldn't even do that without the handy work of this wonderful father I like to call God. :) He's not only my savior, but my best friend. When someone asks me if i'm Christian my immediate response of course is yes, but I like to think of having him a friendship, not a religion. God doesn't tell me what's exactly wrong and what's exactly right, he doesn't put me in jail when I mess up, but he guides me in my everyday life, and he shows me where to go next.


 I'm trying to be the best 'me' possible, the 'me' God wants me to be.


Well, that's all this small town girl has to say for today...
