Life.

Without Him:
i'm useless.
i'm scared.

i'm un-settled.

i'm not me.

i'm a coward.

i'm so many more things... but i am nothing.

He infuses my life. He richly blesses, and He doesn't hesitate to teach me! 

This hillsong song... i'm not even sure what it's called. But basically i listened to it like 7 times in a row in my car today. i wanted to shut my eyes and lift my hands, but i think that's against the law when you drive :)

There is no one else for me

None but Jesus

Crucified to set me free

Now i live to bring Him praise.

i love those words!

Then there's this section:

All my delight is in you Lord. 

Jesus- i want to live to bring you praise! i'm so far from where i want to be... but He lavishes grace on me... wow. 

Not good... not bad... learning!

I see so much within me that isn't at all who i truly am.

He is so patient with me. How He does it, i do not know! i got so down this weekend. Because i see things i'm missing out on, because life is so different from how i imagined it. But i have so much to be thankful for. i do.

i love people. i would love to sit down with a stranger everyday and get to know them. Not just a casual How are you? But a true conversation. i'm genuine in my love toward people... maybe that's hard to tell. i'm not sure.

Oh... there's a new piercing i want really bad. It might be too weird though!

You'd think i would have stopped posting on here since no one reads it, but i enjoy it every so often. Especially when i'm overwhelmed with our Savior and want to get it out...

i was talking to a friend yesterday... it has been hard for me to see God in my life lately. Not only have i not looked like Him, but i decided that it would be cool to try to figure things out myself. That obviously did not work. Funny how after following Christ for a while i still make mistakes and choose not to trust Christ. i thank Him for His patience with me... and His grace. Where would i be without it?

I was just now reading in John 15...
Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. vs.4

i am nothing without my sweet Savior... and i love that!

trust: 1 a: assured reliance on the character, ability, strength, or truth of someone or something b: one in which confidence is placed

This is what God has been working on in the life of Meghan Poore. Trusting that He'll bring a job my way, and it'll be just for me. Trusting that He'll bring encouraging friends into my life that are true.

i prayed and have been praying that God would test my faith... scary. But, i want my faith to continue growing. He is so good to me!

Classes are SO hard! i used to love school, now all i can think of is traveling, speaking spanish, and the summer :) i am praying though, daily... that i will not become complacent. i am in Manhattan for a reason!

He is faithful.
I say to the Lord, "You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing."
Psalms 16:2

FAITHFUL HE IS

I love being reminded of God's love over and over.

This weekend was SO good. i was able to go hiking in the beautiful Manhattan hills and go 4-wheeling and hang out with a good friend. i just love it when i see things like nature and relationships and i'm reminded how everything is praising God. It's a neat thing. He is so faithful... even when my car won't start and life seems too much, He is still my stronghold.

From His people who can praise Him... to the mountains that could shout out His name, this remains:
The Lord is so good.
i have a hard time saying more than that, yet i know i could go on for paragraphs and hours.
He places passions and desires in my life. i know they come from Him. He takes people in and out. He allows me to learn through hardships and trials while all the whole promising to never give me more than i can handle.
He calls for my heart... for my life. Sometimes quietly... still. A tiny prodding of my heart. But sometimes it's more bold and strong that anything i've ever experienced. God has been so present in my life this past week. It's like my senses have been made aware. It's amazing.

So i'm pretty sure no one EVER reads this, but i still love on here. . . i had such an amazing day yesterday. i just got to spend a lot of time with more students getting to know them. i love it. i love this summer so much!

There are so many things God has been teaching me, so much more than i want to learn, and a difference i want to make so badly. i have been challenged with so much-even little things have taught me so much. My patience has been tested more than i ever thought it would be. It's so hard to spend time with the same people 24/7 but it's the most amazing experience ever! Well-someone from the church is bringing us lunch in like 10 minutes, better go!
