Living Life for Christ Alone

The day had been a long one. I had taught all morning, then rushed to a cleaning job, then ran an errand for a ministry at our church. I was so tired that on the way back from the errand, I missed my turn and found that out of habit, I was headed towards the store closest to our house. Oops! I thought to myself, I missed my turn... Oh well... I decided that I would go ahead and go all the way there and do some shopping for my upcoming trip. I walked in to the store, realizing just how messy I must've looked... 

Every person has a past... Some not as pleasant as others, but all with torn up dreams; sudden and unwanted twists to their stories that have an effect on them they never wanted. In the short life I've lived so far, much has taken place already that I didn't see coming. And when it did, confusion clouded the pathway, and my dreams became a blur. Wounds that went so deep, I never thought I'd be whole again.
