Label It.

We all have reputations and labels. And we are all responsible for somebody else's reputation and label. As a Christian, our circumstances don't change but the person that we are does. The way we react to situations or deal with situations changes. We may still have the same reputation or label that those in our church or school or community had known us by, but we changed.

We don't have to carry yesterdays baggage. And when I say yesterday I mean your entire past right up until right now.

You know who you were before now, before Jesus and you know who you are now or maybe you are still trying to figure it out but it's all about the journey. The more you cling to Jesus, the more beautiful things are going to be. The more you cling to the world, the harder things are going to get.

River God.

Rolling River God
Little Stones are smooth
Only once the water passes through

So I am a stone
rough and grainy still
Trying to reconcile this river's chill

But when I close my eyes
and feel you rushing by
I know that time brings change
and change takes time
And when the sunset comes
my prayer would be just this one
that you might pick me up
and notice that I am
just a little smoother in your hand
.
