stormy night

There's nothin' like an evening outside when it's silent and dark outside. It's just you, and you're all alone-family on vacation, left with a house to yourself. the world stops and it's just you and your thoughts, you and God. The sound of thunder in the skies with no rain and the wind blowing through the trees! A glorious night, one i got to have a few nights ago and it was amazing!

me without God

Ever wonder what you'd be like without God? No, I mean, practically lived out, what it would look like. abbey lammers, without the deposit of God's Spirit...left alone. No ability to love others like I'm supposed to, to be kind like God, to utilize self-control, or to be courteous. Every enablement comes from God; they ARE NOT WITHIN ME. Abbey Lammers without God: selfish, arrogant, mean, boastful, did i mention selfish, degrading, self-absorbed, oh and, focused on self. Yup, pretty worthless. And we think we have something to boast about, in ourselves?! I forget who I am as a result of God in me. God, help me not to forget!
