I really had to put my thinking cap on for day two - "Words". Sometimes I wonder if I am not as transparent as I long to be and am perceived as being a bit too 'religious' with my blogs and posts. Anyone who knows me knows that I am about as not religious as you can get. Once I discovered that being a 'good girl' was never going to get me to heaven, it took so much religious do good pressure off. Now I enjoy a real relationship with my Savior that is full of good and, honestly, naughty, inappropriate, not Christlike Carla. This picture has two sets of words...the bottom layer are just a few of the many tomes that I have scribed over the years. They are full of the real Carla...things that have made me laugh and cry, times of being in love and then not being in love, times of pissed off ranting and cut to the depths of my core repentance, times of pleading in prayer for people I love more than my own life, and stuff that I wouldn't want another soul to read (my roomie has promised to burn them after I die - he he). The top layer are the words that have matured the writing of the journals below. God's Words. Words that I do love. Words that have healed me. Words that have given me hope when I felt I didn't have any. Words that calmed the fears that have welled up in my soul. Words that have corrected me. Words that have comforted me through many losses over the years. Words that have convicted me. Words that have built my faith. Words that have saved my soul.
Psalm 119:105 - Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
