Talking to God

How do you relax?

I spend each night talking to God. It helps me feel better and unburdened. I can tell Him anything, give him my worries and not be afraid. I don’t feel like I have to pretend to be someone I’m not. I don’t feel like I have to censor myself. I can just be me in front of him and he still loves me. The most relaxing thing you can find, is a place that you find peace in. My peace is found talking to God. I find that is the only time I am truly relaxed and can be my complete self. This is why it’s the last thing I do before I go to bed. I like to fall asleep feeling at peace.

Always learning

Talking to a young boy I found he was cold. Maybe smart but not very nice. Very dismissive but I can blame myself. I tend to talk too much and share too much of myself when talking to people. It’s a very big flaw I know and I am working at it. I do find that sometimes being that way helps me to not hide who I am. I am not ashamed of being myself but I do forget others don’t like talking to other people and feel it might waste their time. So in that sense I was wrong to have wasted his time. I guess we all try to think we are speaking to people but we aren’t. In the digital age we are nothing more than avatars exchanging bits of information. So in that aspect you really never actually speak to the person like if you were to speak to them in real life. It was an interesting experience and it’s not his fault, it’s no one’s fault. We have become so separated yet are so close just by the tap of the screen but still worlds away from one another. Another day still grateful for another lesson learned.

Who Am I to Stand in Your Way

Song by: Chester See

Forgive me

I may have said things

That aren’t exactly

The way that I feel

I told you I’d be strong

I said that I’d moved on

But it doesn’t take long

To realize

That I’m not over you

But if there is somebody that makes you feel happy

Tends to your heart in the ways I’d been lacking

Then who am I who am I to stand in your way…

To stand in your way…

To stand in your way…

I won’t stand in your way…

I know it sounds crazy

But I need you to trust me

If it’s how it must be

Then I’ll fade away

When it finally feels true

Then do what you have to

‘Cause I’ll never blame you

For not choosing me

But I’m not over you

But If there is somebody that makes you feel happy

Tends to your heart in the ways I’d been lacking

Then who am I who am I to stand in your way

That I feel is no longer your burden

If there is someone that can make you feel perfect

Then who am I who am I to stand in your way…

To stand in your way…

To stand in your way…

I won’t stand in your way…

Down the road someone will ask me if I know you

I’ll pause for a moment I’ll smile and say that I used… to

If there is somebody that makes you feel happy

Tends to your heart in the ways I’d been lacking

Then who am I who am I to stand in your way

That I feel is no longer your burden

If there is someone that can make you feel perfect

Then who am I who am I to stand in your way…

To stand in your way…

To stand in your way…

I won’t stand in your way…

I won’t stand in your way

I won’t stand in your way

Ideal Home

What does your ideal home look like?

My ideal home looks like one that has a lot of bedrooms. Many windows so the sunlight can always shine inside the every room in the house. One that has a big kitchen with lots of cabinet space and counter space. One with a yard or land, to plant flowers and have a little garden. One more thing that is a must, a big tub for me to be able to soak in, no little showers or tubs.

Thankful 🙏🏼

What motivates you?

God is what motivates me. He has given me so much. He has never turned His back on me. He has brought me out of the darkness. He is what gives me strength to get up each and every single day. He has given me clarity. He has helped me to focus. He is my best friend. He is what motivates me.

Chasing you? Nope that’s a hard pass!

Disappointed is some thing I have become very familiar with. Just when you start to feel comfortable around people you find out that they are complete jerks. You want to try to do your best, you wanna to fit in but when you realize that you don’t, it’s doesn’t seem to matter as much. As I have gotten older I realize that I’m more comfortable in my skin. As time flows by I realize that the people that I want in my life, won’t ask to be in it. If you don’t want to be in my life, leave. I will never ask you to be in it. If you feel that you want to leave, I am not going to hold you back. I want you to be able to want to stay. I don’t want to be second place, I don’t wanna be the default choice I want to be the one that you choose. If you can’t do that, and if you feel like you’re missing out then by all means walk away. If you think that I’m going to sit here and beg you to stay, you’re wrong. I’m an extremely loyal person and if I can’t get that loyalty back, I don’t want you in my life. It’s not about making the wrong choices. It’s about knowing my worth and I know I am worthy of being loved and being happy. Surrounded by people that want to be with me. Surrounded by people that love me for me. Surrounded by people that accept me for me.

People are like seasons, in the summer you feel the heat of some peoples love. In the winter, you feel the chill and cold you see the real face of people that hide it so much to not show. In the spring, you might find the warmth of the sun that makes you think people can change. Like a rose that is blooming. But just like the autumn season, you see the beautiful colors of change and right before winter the leaves die, the flowers die, and everything dies right before the cold of winter. People are exactly the same way. You may never get to see their real cold side. You may never get to see the blooming rose in the spring and you may never feel the heat of summer, but you definitely get to feel the autumn right before the winter when everything has died.

Some things need to be let go of, I won’t hold you to your word. I won’t even try to win you back. I won’t even try to talk to you to reason with you. Because in the end I chose me. And my choice, I chose to walk away. Because in the end you are not worth fighting for. If you feel, I am not worth fighting for I think we are exactly where we are supposed to be. On the opposite of friendship. You make time for the people who mean something to you. Let this be a lesson to learn that letting go or walking away is more powerful than being surrounded by snakes.

I wish you the best always ~Emma~

Moody girl

I woke up this morning in such a mood. As I went through the day I felt it was just progressively getting worse. As I sit here at 4:15 pm in the afternoon I can honestly say it’s gotten a lot better. Even earlier when I made my video for the day I said I wasn’t in a good mood. It was just one of those moody days.

I still woke up grateful and thanked God for the new day. Even after slamming my wrist into a window causing my wrist to swell up and see stars. I was able to get the internet to finally work with the help of the technician that came to the house. He helped me with hooking up my Mac book and everything. It was such a help on a day that was just not going well.

Even just chatting with the guy was helpful we spoke about Japan and how I should definitely go visit. 😂

So I say again just because your day might start out moody or crappy, be grateful. It is through the grateful heart that God changed my day.

I even was yelling at God this afternoon, after slamming my wrist. I was like oh it’s pick on Emma today. lol it was a joke and I really didn’t think it was going to change anything and yet here I am grateful for the better mood.

I think sometimes letting out your frustrations out to God as if He is there with you, even if you think He might not be listening, you find out soon enough He is always listening. So have a little faith and just chat with Him. Tell Him your frustrations, tell Him how you feel, let Him know everything and you might be surprised when He does answer.

I hope everyone has a beautiful blessed day.

My comfort

What strategies do you use to increase comfort in your daily life?

I talk to God a lot which brings me so much comfort. It might sound weird to many but having constant conversations with God just makes me happy.

Having a relationship with the Most High should never just be prayers. I don’t know how some just pray to Hod but never actually talk to Him. For me He is with me all the time so why not share my thoughts, my burdens, my issues, my insecurities, my happiness, why not share all of it.

It is said that the church is the bride of Christ. Well what would that make the Creator of universe, for me that makes Him everything. So if He is everything why wouldn’t I share all things with Him the good and the bad.

It is through my weakness that He shines, so that is the greatest comfort anyone can ever have.

To my sister

Today I got the chance to enjoy the day celebrating the birthday of my sister. She is extremely annoying and completely drives me insane at times. But without my sister I would be lost. I love her more than words can ever say. She is smart, beautiful and kindhearted. Though most times we stand on opposite sides of most things in life, she is the only one I have. So to my amazing sister I wish a wonderful birthday filled with many blessings. May God grant you many healthy years ahead with many wonderful blessings in the future. Love always, Emma
