Extraodanary, Blessed, Cursed, and Won

I didn't really do anything important today, just art club and go to the art show at school. Blue ribbon, but not best in show; really not a surprise.
I get to feeling lonely sometimes, not really someone special, not really anything at all. God lets me fall, but today I realized, only to pick me back up again so that I can see how much I need him. I was thinking about all my losses, all my imperfections, everything that I lack; so I got on Bible Gateway. Today's verse of the day:
“For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.”- 1 Peter 1:18-19
I found it difficult to have patience today, so I'll be praying for that too. I used to think that being timid meant you were also humble and you could not have one without the other. Perceptions can change so fast, even without the guidance of another human being... and it reminds me of my purpose here.
Goodnight.

"And I fail
But when I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will"
