God, I'm Overwhelmed

Your love is overpowering.

God, I'm Overwhelmed
Audrey Scoggins

God, I am overwhelmed,

I am overwhelmed at your goodness. Everything in my life works together for my good. You are never rash and never evil. Your goodness radiates in every blessing given to me.

I am overwhelmed at your faithfulness. You will never leave or forsake me. Everything you say will come to pass and you will never fail me.

I am overwhelmed at your blessings. The overflowing amounts of blessings I receive are far too many to count. You allow to work, rest and stay in your love.

I am overwhelmed at your teachings. Through every trial and fear I grow deeper and deeper in my relationship with you. I continuously learn about the Almighty One and His beauty.

I am overwhelmed at your peace. In the darkest times, you meet me there. You bring me rest in restless times. There is no uncertainty when I am certain of the one who holds my future.

I am overwhelmed at your glory. The marvelous creation you have given us is a reminder of your power and strength. Every good thing comes from you. You are worthy and holy. I glorify your name.

I am overwhelmed at your mercy. I fail you time and time again, yet your true love holds fast. I do not deserve a life of salvation. I do not deserve a life being called in your direction.

I am overwhelmed at your promises. You never waiver and never change your mind. You decided a long time ago to make promises that I can hold onto. You will never cease to come through for me.

I am overwhelmed at your love. You are constant. You see my sin and my flaws but love me anyway. You loved me before I even existed. There is no moment when you love me less or do not shower me in your love.

Thank you for being overwhelming.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
