For a while now I've had this little voice inside my head telling me that I need to start blogging. About what exactly? I don't know. I guess this is where the fun of it all is.
By now if you're not thinking it I'll just put it out there: who am I?
Answer: I can't really say who I am, given that I change, in one way or another, every second, every day. The person I was yesturday is not the person I am today. If that is not the case, then I have not grown as a person. Not mentally. Not emotionally. Not spiritually.
However, I can say this: I am misplaced. I am separated from the One who created me in His own image. Wow! He actually created me to look like Him! Everything else is a product of a 'let there be': "let there be light," and there was light; "let there be trees," and there were trees. That's what I call power!
But when it came to me, I was too special for a 'let there be'. He actually bent down to the earth and took his time to shape me in His own image and likeness, and gave me the same attributes He has... this is still something I cannot yet fully understand. I've wondered many times why it is that I feel the need to connect with Him and really, it is not until about.... 10 seconds ago that I've really figured it out: He gave me a piece of Himself so that I can be a living being...
I guess that's why I am misplaced. I don't belong here. WE don't belong here. I need to get out of here and go to where I belong, with who I belong. But since that's going to take a little while longer than what is in my control, I figured I'll just let you into my mind, the mind of a sinner.
I am as imperfect a human being as there is, so there is no reason why you SHOULD read what my brain produces; however, that's the whole point, don't you think?
Welcome to the Mind of a Sinner!

Interestingly enough, I never thought about the fact that I am not a product of "let there be"...it is true when God created me He truly took His time...thanks for reminding me of that gift that nothing and no one can ever take away from me....
what you wrote reminds me of
Isaiah 43...But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.
Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.
Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;
I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;
Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.
Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.
Let all the nations be gathered together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and show us former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them hear, and say, It is truth.
Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.
I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.
I have declared, and have saved, and I have showed, when there was no strange god among you: therefore ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, that I am God.
Yea, before the day was I am he; and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall let it?
Thus saith the LORD, your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; For your sake I have sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their nobles, and the Chaldeans, whose cry is in the ships.
I am the LORD, your Holy One, the creator of Israel, your King.
Thus saith the LORD, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;
Which bringeth forth the chariot and horse, the army and the power; they shall lie down together, they shall not rise: they are extinct, they are quenched as tow.
Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.
Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.
This people have I formed for myself; they shall show forth my praise.
But thou hast not called upon me, O Jacob; but thou hast been weary of me, O Israel.
Thou hast not brought me the small cattle of thy burnt offerings; neither hast thou honoured me with thy sacrifices. I have not caused thee to serve with an offering, nor wearied thee with incense.
Thou hast bought me no sweet cane with money, neither hast thou filled me with the fat of thy sacrifices: but thou hast made me to serve with thy sins, thou hast wearied me with thine iniquities.
I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.
Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.
Thy first father hath sinned, and thy teachers have transgressed against me.
Therefore I have profaned the princes of the sanctuary, and have given Jacob to the curse, and Israel to reproaches.
