Losing Myself

"The Art of Losing Myself In Bringing You Praise"

     Imagine singing this.  Your eyes are closed, and all you see is darkness.  Is this what it's like to feel lost? But do you really feel lost? I was singing this tonight, and while I was singing, I opened my eyes. I looked around me at all the other Christians in the room, and I marveled in what God has done - is doing - in my life.  I'm not lost.  I've been found.  He has claimed me as one of His own.  But at the same time, I need to lose certain aspects of myself.

     So that's what I'm doing; this is what I'm about now.  I am trying to lose myself in Him; to lose the false identity I created for myself and come into my own as His creation.  It's really a beautiful experience to go through.  At every moment of every day, I feel His peace and His love.  No matter what setbacks I face, I feel more at peace in these last few weeks than I have ever felt.

     I didn't always felt this way.  I felt like a drifter, and didn't really know what my purpose was.  But, I've found it now.  And I want to share this experience with you - with the world.

     I promise I'm not going to preach to you.  I'm actually not qualified to do that - yet! What I am going to do is share with you.  And I want you all to hold me accountable.  I'll try to post something everyday - something God is doing in my life, and something I want to share with you.  I am going to lose myself and become his New Creation.

  1. Awww this is fantastic! A few months ago, I felt like I had made significant progress with my spiritual life, but I began to fall away over the past two months. Reading things like this makes me want to get back into the swing of things :D
