Quotes From Christy :]

"God takes us as we are. We should not try to change ourselves before we have a relationship with God. We need to give ourselves to him completely with all of our sins. He will work in us." -Christy

These are some of the best words that anyone has ever said to me. I don't know how long I've been waiting to just hear those words. I've been waiting for so long for someone to tell me that God just wants me. And believe me I've been told that God wants me. But I thought it was always followed by a list of conditions. Rules. Stuff that I had to do.

But I'm so glad for once that I am wrong. I feel so happy that I'm crying. Things happen at such strange times. One second I'm bummed that Justin and I were fighting and the next Christy, a lady who goes to my church, asked me what we fought about because it was my status on facebook. And she talked to me. And we were talking about relationships and fighting and then about sin. And it all just came out.

And she said that to me.

And now I know that I don't have to try to be something I'm not to have a relationship with God. God wants me.

I love Christy :] And that pretty much sums it all up.

Gonna go paint my nails with my grandma :]
Love
