Dear Father.
I wrote this in my prayer journal after i heard that Goldie died. I decided to share this because i kind of just felt the need to.

Dear God,
I know people die everyday. Even when we are not aware at
all, all over the world. But its hits you when its someone you can put a name
and face to *sigh*
After death, that’s it. No more trying to live for you, I
read “Pray for her soul” and your words clearly says after death judgement?
Means there is so much “praying for the soul” that can be done after. They are
really gone. Sadly, a lot of people will go back to their lives after this.
I’m not anywhere close to where I want to be in you, so not.
This. Is. A. wake. Up. Call.
Please, please. Help me.
I want to confidently write down someday “When you hear I am
dead, don’t believe because – then just then will I be more alive- alive in
Christ”
I want to confidently write that, please Lord. Everything
just seems so insignificant all of a sudden. I want you, I want more of you.
Help me.
I don’t care what the world thinks, I want to be all about
you. I am all about you, nothing more, nothing less.
Because at the end of the day, the walk with you is a
personal walk.
Thank you so very much for the gift of life, Life is indeed
a gift because with life there is still hope, hope for an inheritance…Thank you
for the opportunity you are giving me again to chase after you and your
kingdom.
I am not better. No special talent. I still roll my eyes
when I get sent on errands. I still have negative thoughts, I still battle with
my flesh, I still judge people, I wrestle with the voice that is contrary to
what I believe in my head, I still keep quiet about my faith so people wont say
“Your own is too much” I don’t love my neighbor, not to talk of loving them as
myself, not like I have a greater measure of grace. I. Am. So. Not. Worthy. But
you count me worthy.
