A funny thing happened at the boardwalk today.

So, I'm on vacation right now with my family and as we were getting dinner, a concert was going on locally. Well, it just so happened that this was a Christian concert with some small time band. They then played "Everything" by Lifehouse (Which I found out through Wiki-research was a church rock band at first) and these lyrics:

"Cause You're all I want    
You're all I need    
You're everything, everything"

just really made me think. Is Jesus all I want? Do I really see Him as all I need? Is He my everything? Or do I just use that quote or lyric as a status to encourage others (yes, unfortunately)? Sometimes I forget to encourage myself. Sometimes I forget to ask for encouragement. And all the time, I forget to ask Jesus to help me. If He truly was all I wanted, needed, and my everything, I wouldn't be too stressed and crazy and tired and lonely. 

The true test though comes after I press the "Publish" blog and this is for all to see. The test is remembering this. Remembering that Jesus is all I want, all I need, my everything. It's hard because I forget that He is always there. When you have trust issues, it takes baby steps (like ittle bitty baby steps). I just need to be like 1 Peter 5:7 "Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you." Because, thank God, Jesus will never forsake me.

Well, I hope this made sense and thanks for listening (er...reading!).
