June Blogathon, Day One!

Hi Y'all,

I am joining in on the June blogathon! I have never done this before, I am very excited and cannot wait to share something new with you guys every day!

I am going to kick-off June by formally introducing myself.

My name is Bayley, but you can call me Bay, Bayzil Lou, Bayzey Kate ect. :) I am 15 years old! I love to blog! I have loved it sense the day I started. I love it for a lot of reasons but I think the main reason is probably that I get the chance to inspire people from a much bigger platform than I would otherwise. I also get to share Jesus with all of you!! I have the privilege and honor of sharing the gospel with you. I also get to share my story and the ways the Lord has impacted and continues impact and interrupt my life.

I love Tae Kwon Do and am currently a blue belt! I am a totally weird, clean freak, organization loving, family oriented, super fast talking, Taekwondo loving, nut that loves Jesus!

I also have what is formally known as epilepsy (which is really just a fancy way of saying a seizure disorder:)). People sometimes feel sorry for me, they feel sorry that I have had to go through this and the things that come with having a seizure disorder, they feel sorry for me because I have had to stop doing things I love, they feel sorry because I have had so much "hard stuff" in my life already and this is just adding to the list. I understand why they feel this way, I am thankful I have people in my life that care, but I am perfectly fine having the problems I have and this disorder is not the end of the world...its only the beginning. That's not to say that my life is perfect I still have "those" days, I still fall into sadness and depression and even sometimes, anger. BUT God is amazing! He has a plan that is much bigger than me, that is much better than anything I could ever imagine. He's got this.

 
I have big dreams and I am constantly thinking of more things to do, more places to go/see. I love food + eating, like, big time! I also love working out/ going to the gym. I love using my voice! I feel like I have been given a voice and I should use it to bring honor, glory, praise and worship to my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I have this crazy insane love for littles and I know the Lord is going to use that love in big ways. I also have this nuts-o love for my family (and friends!), they're the most amazing gift from God! They bless me everyday (+ they drive me crazy ;))
 
God has blessed me abundantly!
 
"I have learned that I will not change the world.
Jesus will do that.
I can however, change the world for one person.
So I will keep loving one person at a time.
Because this is my call as a follower of Jesus." ~Katie Davis

Silent Pain.

I just recently read a blog post about silent pain. It was like it was talking about me. Though the girl that wrote it and I deal with pain about completely different things and hers is much more serious, we still deal with pain and we hold it in. Unfortunately, she didn't say anything until it was to late. Until it had already broken her. I don't want to do that. I don't want this pain to break me. I don't want to lose a part of myself because of this pain. So, I am going tell you about my pain. Not to make you feel bad for me, not so that you can pity me, but because... I want to inspire others. I want to inspire you. I want to share my journey with you, I want you to be a part of my journey. And I don't want this pain to break me. I walk down the aisle in Wal-mart, in the hallway at the hospital where my dad works, at church, in the car, at home, anywhere and it seems like everywhere I go there are flickering lights (flickering lights are a major seizure trig...

We Have a Choice

It's my choice. I can feel less than. I can feel not enough. I can feel like I'll never measure up. I can feel like the grass is always greener on the other side. I can believe the lie that I'm not making a difference. I can believe that I'm alone, that I'm the only one chasing these dreams. I can believe that it's all about me. OR I can know and live truth that it's not about me. I am less than without Jesus. I am not enough without Jesus. I will never measure up without Jesus. The grass is always greener where you water it. I am making a difference because of Jesus. I am not alone because of Jesus. It is all about Jesus. I'm combating the lies! The lies Satan pours over me. The lies I'm drowning in. The lies that I'm letting stop me from pursuing the things of God. The things He is laying on my heart to pursue. I am in a season of beginnings, of new and different, of remembering, of working through big, hard things. As I...

My Hallelujah Song.

Today is one of those really bad days. You know, the kind of day where your heart hurts even when something wonderful happens? The kind of day that makes you want to cry about every little thing? The kind of day that makes you almost hate the things you love? Yeah, today has been that kind of day for me. Today has kind of stunk! It has been rough and my heart is hurting. Today is the every once in a while day that we call "I hate Epilepsy day". It comes every couple of weeks or months and it doesn't stay long but while it's here, it hurts! It breaks our hearts and it makes us cry and basically, it just plain stinks, big time!! I have cried more times then I can count today. Why? You may ask. Because, it stinks to have Epilepsy sometimes! Now, please don't get the idea that I hate Epilepsy, even though everything I've said so far has pointed to that very thought. I LOVE having Epilepsy!! I love that the Lord gave this illness to me!! It is a gift and I am...
