Luke 17: 33 If you grasp and cling to life on your terms, you'll lose it, but if you let that life go, you'll get life on God's terms.

Esther 1- 2; Psalm 150; Luke 17
Lost people……of which I was one….lost and empty……..empty and angry…..angry and selfish….selfish and …..I am still all those things... though in Christ….WHEN I am focused on You I’m not or not as empty...and I am no longer lost...….so why do I lose my focus….???? BECAUSE I am still selfish…….but the God of the UNIVERSE loves me anyway and calls me to LOVE….because HE loves me I can……..not perfectly…..not always……not without wrong motivations (sometimes) and IF the motivations...... come from Him you just know you know……..So my passion this tearing up everytime I think or talk about HIM is real…….sustainable only in and through time with YOU……time in the word……..but now all I hear is BE STILL….who knew you know…when I got my tattoo that it would be such a reminder……Be still and know that YOU are God. Psalm 46:10.

His terms are ALWAYS the better way, we just have to stop fighting for our terms and accept His.
Believe it or not, I almost got the same thing as a tattoo. Where is yours located?
