I don't wanna mess this thing up...

I've had a ridiculously awesome couple of days... And it's all because I've been able to talk to a good friend.  It amazes me how wonderful some people are:  how Christ-like they are.  How they're really concerned about you.  It's a nice change.

I'm all the way up to chapter four with my book, which is crazy!!!  A month ago, I would not have thought I would have been this far, let alone having people actually read it, and like it.  I remember how, in school, I hated to read my writing out loud, or hated having someone read it.  There's a genuine reason behind my fears...  The whole fact that everyone who reads it gets an insight into my mind.  There have been a few things I've written that have made me blush... Thankfully, only one person has read those things...

I guess life is good.  There are a few things that could happen that would make it a whole lot better, but I'll wait patiently for those things to happen.  Like the title of this blog says, I don't wanna mess this thing up, I don't wanna push too far.  Quoted from one of Lady Antebellum's songs...  That I kinda hate, but kinda like right now.

Yes, I have a love-hate relationship with a song.  Be nice.  I'm sure you have one of those, too.  :P

Another song that I love, but don't know the title to... Or who sings it... Goes like this:

"What if your blessings come through raindrops?
What if your healing comes through tears?
What if a thousand sleepless nights is what it takes to know you're near?
What if the trials of this life are your mercies in disguise?"

I think I've seen enough rain, cried enough tears, had a thousand sleepless nights, and plenty of trials...  But I know now that they're all blessings.

In family prayer last night, I had the distinct impression that I should thank Heavenly Father for all of our trials.  And I did.  And it brought tears to everyone's eyes.  I've thanked Him for my trials before, but I never have meant it so much.  I know He's preparing me for something great.  And I'm grateful he trusts me enough.
