![[Truth] As Told by Jamie](https://truthastold.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/cropped-cropped-JamieInPurple2.jpg)
I know I haven’t been posting as much here as I’d like to be. I could say that things like work, social life and everyday things kept me busy. But the truth of the matter is, I just lost the motivation to blog. Eversince I moved to Oklahoma and started working in my dream job, things just piled up. But that’s not the point of this entry. You guys and most importantly, God deserve nothing less than my all. So with that, I’d like to say I’m sorry…
Someone Like You
I must admit, for the past couple of days, I’ve been struggling to wake up early enough to do my morning Bible time. Those who know me know I’m not a morning person AT ALL. I usually hit the snooze button until just about the last second when I need to get up and go to work. But I’ve slowly been waking up early enough to do my chapter-a-day habit. For today’s chapter, these verses stuck out:
Such a confidence we have through Christ toward God. Not that we are adequate in ourselves to consider anything as coming from ourselves but our adequacy is from God. (2 Cor 3:4-5)
In the Valley
Notice that God didn’t take Ezekiel to a mountaintop, He didn’t take him to an ocean or a meadow, He took him to a place of despair; a valley, a low place full of death, and completely devastated by mortality. And there He says,
Prophesy.
A Lakewood Sunday
I’ve been all over the world but Houston has a special spot for me. I’ve always felt at home here. It’s one of those cities where the minute a fly in, I can breathe a little bit easier. Whenever things get too overwhelming, I try to make a visit. The past couple of weeks has been tough but I’m not complaining. It’s all part of the process of moving to a new town, new job, new everything. It’s just an adjustment period, that’s all. But I needed a breather badly and my birthday weekend seemed like the perfect time to do so.
