On a good note, I am also feeling much more happier these days. I have finally cut things out of my life that were keeping me down and I'm on the up and up now. I've taken up my hobby of photography again and back to editing old and new photos with Photoshop. Hoping that one day I will be able to purchase a DSLR to advance my photography skills. Perhaps then I will be able to take professional-like photos for friends and at certain events. That's a very exciting possibility. =]
Spiritually I've been trying to draw closer to God, as I feel I have been quite neglecting of that certain part (though really it is ALL of my life) of my life. I've started getting into Psalms lately and trying to read them daily, particularly in the mornings. I also feel like I'm getting to know Jesus all over again and it's a good experience, sometimes I forget just how amazing a person he is. Recently at a camp I was a leader on we went through John 8:1-11 where a bunch of people bring this woman who has commited adultery with intentions of stoning the woman and see if Jesus will slip up in his words, Jesus responds to the people with "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her." So one by one, the people walk away and then eventually there is no one left there except Jesus and the woman. Jesus tells the woman that she can walk away a forgiven woman. Even though I have heard that story so many times before, still now I am amazed at the love of Christ. It is truly amazing and staggering. That there is absolutely nothing I can do stop his abounding love, he considers me his treasure even when I feel absolutely worthless, down in the bottom of the deepest hole.
