Most Random Blog Yet

I called this the most random blog yet because I decided to make it five seconds before I got on the site to make it. There is no point beyond passing my time. It will be whatever happens to flow out of my mind and through the fingers, into the keyboard and onto this here screen you're looking at right now. Enjoy.
I've been very obsessed with fairy tales lately. I think it's cause I'm kinda frustrated... cause there was this guy I really liked and he was really awesome- like, Spanish guitar awesome- and then he joined the marines... so that was kind of a bummer but at least he's happy, right? The idea just takes some getting used to, and I'm totally fine with it, it's just kinda sad for me, so whenever I think about it I prefer to think about fairy tales- thus all the quotes and such on them. If you go to my pinterest (MissLadySara) I have a whole board dedicated to Things Fantastical. I just love fairy tales. They let you escape from reality and create a world with fairies and princes and magic... and if you want the sun can always shine or the rain can always fall but with no horrible side effects... And you can always give yourself a happy ending.
Yeah, I guess that's the thing about fairy tales- you can control the ending, and everything before that, or if the ending even exists. In life, you can't control much, and even when you can you often need to relinquish control to God. It's always best to give Him control- His will is perfect and wonderful- and sometimes it's easy. Like, when you agree with Him. But I find that God's will stops being attractive to me when it stops being my will, too. And although His will is still best, I stop wanting it over my own. It's so weird that I would having difficulty giving Him control, because I know what happens when I'm in control- bad things. When I refuse to listen to God, bad things happen. I ruin my testimony and get myself into very bad situations. I know this because I have refused to listen to God in the past and sometimes still do, and it's tragic because I take situations where He could have been glorified and others could have seen Him through me, and I twist them into situations where... nothing good happens. Nothing at all.
And so, once again, an attempt at lightness, pointlessness, even silliness leads to something deep and useful... but oh well, I don't suppose it's all that terrible if God takes a random whim of mine and perhaps uses it for his purposes. No, that's quite fine with me :)
