breaking the ice

This isn't going to be a blog that everybody will want to read. This might be a blog that NOBODY reads. If that's the case that's fine with me. Either way here's the first post of many.

Without trying to sound prideful..I believe my life has a purpose. I look around sometimes..and still wonder if its true. I take a look at the outside circumstances and it makes me scared, it makes me stress. I start to sink a little. Anyone that knows me outside of my plastic mask could probably wonder if I'm really ready for the rest of my life.

But then I get lost a little. I get lost deep inside something that God puts in front of me. Whether it be a song, a scripture, or a situation..right in the middle of everything I see the stone. In Jason Upton's song "Stones" he sings of this.

"In the midst of the presence there's the stone. In the midst of the storm there's the stones. That the world rejected, there's the stone. And It kills the giants, there's the stone."

So I see that whenever I fail, or do something wrong. Or I see that outside events rising up, whenever I start to sink... I realize that there's the stone. The stone, the rock that is Jesus Christ is there for me to climb up on too.. but that same rock, the same stone..is the same stone that slayed the mighty giant..the giant of a problem that is in my life is overtaken by the stone.
