Love is Here!

Yet again it's been forever since I last updated my blog but I PROMISE I will really try to keep up with it (as though you guys wait on pins and needles for me to update). I've been wanting to update my blog and after much thought frustration with trying to get a new background uploaded, etc, I've finally done it! I've really been thinking a lot (I know I have too much free time) about what I wanted the title of my new blog to be and have finally come up with "A Season of Change." I've really gone through a lot of seasons lately...or so it seems, and at this stage in life, I thought it was appropriate. Not only am I in a new season because of  becoming a working girl and being a recent FSU grad but I've really entered a new season with Christ. Through recent prayer, situations, and struggles that I've experienced, I feel as though God has been saying "Megan...you love me, but you're not in love with me." Two weeks ago my church had it's annual Youth Week and we had a wonderful worship leader come (who will be touring with Tenth Avenue North) and bless us with her talents. Every night we have dinner, worship, and a message and then one of the nights we have late night worship where it's for people that truly want to be there. I always love things like this because it seems more intense, yet personal and really allows you to spend time with God and not have a time line of when it needs to end based upon kids being picked up, etc. Anyways...during late night worship I was praying and asking God for wisdom and understanding with some things that have recently happened in my life and I began to weep sob during the song Love is Here and it says, "Love is Here, Love is Now...Love is flowing from his hands and from his brow. Love is Near, it satisfies, streams of mercy flowing from his side, cause Love is Here! and during this song I felt as thought God was saying, "Megan, I have you in my arms and I am all that you need." Man...I know that God has me and I know that God is all I need...but sometimes it's hard to live that out because I depend on my own ways, my own ideas, and my own ability and not on his. It's in this season that I choose and desire to really progress in my relationship with Christ, really get to know him, and know what it truly means to be in love with him.
