When it hits.

Do you ever feel like God just sometimes smacks you in the face with emotion, feeling,thought, or curiosity? I was doing grad school work and all of a sudden it just hit me. It is so strange when this stuff happens, comical even. I know i haven't been in the word lately and because of that I feel like I have taken some steps back. I think everyone goes through these stages of life and I know i have been here before. The GREATEST thing about our God is that he never ceases to give up on us. As much as I have pushed him away lately and have slipped and put distance between us, He never once left my side. I felt like I have put miles and miles between us, but the first step I take back to Him, I am pushed into His arms. And THAT makes me smile. :) As a flood of emotion comes over me i cannot grasp my mind around the idea that He will always love a sinner and confused person like me. I am so unworthy of his unfailing love and do not deserve any of it. He amazes me daily with his forgiveness and I cannot thank HIm enough for simply loving me. A pathetic, sinner, shameful, girl like me. I am so blessed to have a God who not only doesnt give up on me when i stray away from him, but welcomes me with open arms and an unfailing love. He is my Savior. He is MY God. He is my Father.
