Gods Chisel

**Hi everybody! Its Sunday and for me, it's Gods day.**

This morning I went to church just like many other Christians. Today was LYF Sunday meaning Lutheran Youth Fellowship Sunday, where me and other teen Christians get to help put on the service. So church was nontraditional. Our music was transformed as well as our sermon. We got compliments and worried faces but that is what change is about. Now the main part of this post is about the sermon.

The sermon was great in my opinion. With the LYF we changed it to include a video. The video was called Gods Chisel. (Link at bottom) It was very empowering and I can guarantee that every person sitting in that room had a tear in their eye. I wanted to change at that point and it brought me thinking. If I need to stop worrying about what other people think of me then why can't other people stop judging us.

But I suppose that is hard to do. Its worth a try though. Anyways watching that video showed me how to change just a little because I had no clue how bad I really was and how much God loved me. It made me feel good to know that I was somebodies child and to know that, that somebody was God, made me feel warm and safe. It was great to feel like I could change, with him beside me, chiseling away all the bad and finding the good.

Now after everything it is so hard to change. After all the years I have lived and knowing how sinful I have become how do you change? How do you know whats good and bad anymore after you have lived so long in it?

So all I can do is pray for change, right?

Dear God,

You are the light and way but I cannot find you. You are powerful and strong but I am to weak to see. Please God help me find you and become closer to you. Help me change in ways that I do not know. Help me become everything that you want me to be. Help me be more like you. Amen.

Yours Truly,
Hannah
