Lookin' For Something?


What you're HOPEFULLY looking for is God.
I was... I had a rough couple of days in the beginning this week, so I went back to my birthtown to calm down and think. It was hard.
This world is full of "hell." Yeah no joke. You either need to know how to deal with it, or avoid it, and I've had a LOT of it lately. Yes little ol' Brayden is in a bunch of Hell... Sweet, little Brayden, little, innocent Brayden is in trouble... I know that's what a lot of you are saying.
Well ANYWAY, I went back to my birthtown looking for God, and I found him. His peace is on me now. Other than being grounded I feel GREAT! It feels good to start the new year off with a good attitude. This year I'm going to start with a clean slate. And I'm going to scrub at the little marks that just won't wipe off.
I know what it feels like to be lost. I'm only 15 but I do know. I've felt far away from him, close to him, and even as if he was non-existent. Very recently I felt SO bad, that I was dead-set on quitting going to church, quitting reading my Bible, and quitting on God. But I know now that I was wrong. I know now that God is forever, eternal. That God lives in me and should be seen with every breath I breathe. Thank you Lord! You've helped me see the "light," within the darkness that surrounds my life!

Oh! And Happy New Year!
