The Road to Life

At first, I saw God as my observer,
my Judge,
keeping track of the things I did wrong,
so as to know weather I merited Heaven
or Hell when I die.
He was out there sort of like a president.
I recognized His picture when I when I saw it,
but I really didn't know Him.

But later on, when I met Christ,
it seemed as though life was rather like a bike ride,
but it was a tandem bike,
and I noticed that Christ
was in the back helping me pedal.

I don't know just when it was,
that he suggested we change places
but life has not been the same since.

When I had control,
I knew the way,
it was rather boring
but predictable...
it was the shortest distance between two points.

But when He took the lead,
He knew delightful long cuts,
up mountains,
at breakneck speeds,
it was all I could do to hold on!
Even though it looked like madness,
He said, "Pedal!"

I worried and was anxious
and asked,
"Where are you taking me?"
He laughed and didn't answer,
and I started to learn to trust.

I forgot my boring life,
and entered into the adventure.
And when I'd say, "I'm scared,"
He'd lean back and touch my hand.

He took me to places with gifts that I needed,
gifts of waiting,
acceptance,
and joy.
They gave me gifts to take on my journey,
my Lord's and mine.

And we were off again,
He said, "Give the gifts away,
they're extra baggage, too much weight."
So I did,
to the people we met,
and I found that in giving I received,
and Still our burden was light.

I did not trust Him,
at first,
in control of my life.
I though He'd wreck it,
but He knows bike secrets,
knows how to make it bend to take sharp corners,
knows how to jump to clear high rocks,
knows how to fly to shorted scary passages.

And I am learning to shut up and pedal.
In the strangest places,
and I am beginning to enjoy the view
and the cool breeze on my face.
With my delightful constant companion, Jesus Christ.

And when I'm sure I just cant do anymore
He just smiles and says...'Pedal!"

Coming to an end

Well summer is over and I am off to school tomorrow.  And I must say it has been a very good summer.  I have some very good memories to take with me.  It may not have been my most adventurous summer, but it has been the most happiest for me yet.  It was very blissful for me.  Now off to new adventures and into the unknown (I love the unknown).  It will be great.  Cant wait for the new memories!

A garden party don't mind if I do!

I knew it was real!

For my Harry Potter loving friends!

Will she soar...

At time's if you look very closely you might have seen me wearing this beautiful pin.  Well there is a story behind this and I think its about time I share it.


For my birthday my friend gave me this pin.  She told me when she saw it it reminded her of me, and that I would be the prefect person for it (and its something I would totally wear).  But it was not just a pin to wear, it was a gift with a meaning.  She told me I needed to let my heart soar, and well she might be right about that one.  I am not the type of person that wears my heart on my sleeve, in face I try and hide it as much as I can.  I like to keep everything to myself, and not let anyone in, I hate showing I'm in pain or sad.  Its just not me, (its kinda my weakness).  I am just happy go lucky Kaitlyn.  You see my heart is locked up in a safe surrounded by a steel door with gun men surrounding it, and they key is down in the deepest, darkest hole in the bottom of the ocean.  I have been very stubborn about keeping it that way.  But truth is, I cant dream, hope, love, feel, or reach with my heart locked up.  So its about time I let some guards down, let my gun men go home,  unlock that door and retrieve my long lost key and set my heart free.  Tell people what I have to say, dream how I want to dream, and reach for what I want to accomplish.  After all, my heart is no good locked up.


Never thought you could get all that out of a pin right...      


So now when every you see me wearing my pin,  know that I am living free, and my hear it out there soaring and I am happy! I like it this way so much more!




p.s. thank you Hannah!

Once upon a time...

I just hope no matter what my next move is, weather it be a mission, marriage, or even just more school I will be able to endure it well.  The adversity's in my life will be tough and a challenge.  I just need to come unto Christ and offer up my soul and my whole heart.  In the end I want to finally turn the last page and say those all too famous words... "and they lived happily every after!"

Omni 1:26- "And now, my beloved brethren, I would that ye should come unto Christ, who is the Holy One of Israel, and partake of his salvation, and the power of his redemption.  Yea, come unto him, and offer your whole souls as an offering unto him, and continue in fasting and praying, and enduring to the end; and as the Lord liveth ye will be saved."
