Freaks With a Purpose

Hello reader. If you are reading this, well it's flattering that you find interest in what I think. Or you're just really bored, and somehow creeped enough to land on my page. Either way, I'm happy you are taking the time to read this. It's pretty cool what God can do with our lives. I'll just be walking along minding my own biz, when all of the sudden "BAM!" He surprises me, yet again, with His pure awesomeness. Yea, people think we're Jesus freaks. Honestly, I can't help it. They are blind, but He makes them see, and once you see, you have accomplished faith. Congratulations! It's not hard to get what I'm saying. You just ask Him into your heart, and the beauty starts from there. He mends the brokenness, and gives you understanding. Pretty cool stuff. It gives us reason to live. We learn the value of genuine love. In my walk, I've stumbled, fell on my face, and He picked me up. Each time I got up, I was a little stronger. I've seen people stray, people hate and people scold this whole "Christianity" thing. It's not a religion, but more so a way of life. When they question God, why there is evil in the world, hate, famine, death? I admit, I sometimes stutter and stumble in my tracks. Although these answers come natural to me, I can never find the right words to express what I'm thinking. Yea, all that stuff exists because of sin. It was our choice from the beginning of time to go against Him. Now He's given us the choice to follow Him or the world. The answers are there. If you're one of those die hard "give me the answer now!" types of people, well you won't get far in life with that mentality. You need to be open with your mind. Leave room for believing in the impossible, and seeking the unlikely. Because those are the things that will change your life, and give you purpose. Not science. God created science, and people use it against Him! They don't want to believe that such love exists, because they're so hardened to believe that nothing like that exists. I may look like a ditz to them, but hey that's persecution for you. I like to read this book, written by like these beyond amazing authors, called The Bible, maybe you heard of it? Anyways, it's straight up some pretty legit literature. If you actually read it, it will tell you all. People have told me, "Oh, all the bible says is we're going to go to hell, and blah blah blah..." I was like "uh, is that all you read from it?" The bible is filled with answers, love, and stories. I mean, we are all created with intricate design, and have meaning. How can you doubt that there is a greater good, a creator, when you step back and look at all this creation? The big bang can't create emotions and designs? So you believe in all the science mumbo jumbo, cool, what now? With the mind set, I have no reason to believe in anything. Have any morals, or consume any real love. Christ portrays love over and over to us. He gives us hope. Would I speak so passionately about this if I didn't truly 100% believe that it is indeed real stuff? But who am I right? Just a sixteen year old girl, with nothing but fantasies in her brain, and a really misled faith. I beg to differ. "Wake up Stephanie!" Oh, but I'm wide awake, trust me.  In your eyes I'm a dreamer. In His, I'm a believer. He'll come back for me, and all else who took part in the battle. I'll take that to the grave, and you can take your philosophies and doubts. Have a nice pointless life, I'll be making purpose. 

"'If you can'?" said Jesus. "Everything is possible for him who believes."
Mark 9:23

Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves. I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.
John 14:11-12
