When I created this banner for my website, I really sat down and thought about what I wanted it to be about. The words displayed on it are based on a Sara Groves song. But it's words are significant to me:
"(I want to be:) Grateful, Faithful, Peaceful, Thankful."
This title that I chose are the true things in my heart. I DO want to be those things. I don't want to overlook the beauty in everyday life, I want to be faithful to my friends and family, I want to be grateful for what the Awesome Savior has given me. I want to be thankful, but most of all I want to be peaceful, in a way that only can be described as a peace from God.
BUT I haven't been peaceful, grateful, thankful or ANY of these things that are on my banner right now. I should change it to:
"(I am being:) Ungrateful, Unhappy, and Not-Very-Faithful"
How do you like the ring of that?
And what pictures should I have up there, pictures of skulls, dead flowers and mutilated couches?
Sounds good to me! ;-)
I suppose that at some point in everyone's lives, that they reach a few times a year that they are being sinful like me. They can't see the silver lining in the clouds, they can only see how pathetic they have become.
Like me.
I'm so pathetic right now.
I can't believe that I can be loved!
But even though I am this stinking crawiling creature right now
it's cool to know that God understands me and wants me
to come to Him to release this blechy existence.

That's when it's good _to_ have blog titles like yours! It always inspires me--knowing that we're each working toward being better at those attributes. Check my blog title. Think I'm always that way? Nope. But it's a visual reminder of where I'm pointed. Yours too, dear!
