No ones going to change me

I believe in the word of God

The footsteps on this earth I have taken will always stay

Everyone's life I have changed, will never be forgotten

The poor will become rich

The blind will see

and God will heal you.

Thoughts

Because......


Yes that's what I said. You heard me right. No. Don't think about it. Just accept the fact that I said because.

It seems like life is that way most of the time. Whether you are talking to your parents or your friends. They just say because. You stop to wonder why? Why this....why that......It's life deal with it.

Challenges.....

In life..........
At school.........
With family......
Friends......
Mission Trips.....
God.......

The list goes on and on.............

What is the point of life? Is it even worth living? You die in the end. Everything stops.

All of a sudden. Your gone. Everyone will move on and forget about you.

New generations evolve......from those generations they die......It's life accept it.

Accept the hurt. Accept the hate. Accept the love. Accept the jealousy.

Is there a point in life.

You tell me.

A friend forever...

It’s amazing how attached you get to a person in your life. Every time you are around them they just make your day the best, they give you encouragement, love, and a feeling in your heart that the will be there forever. I guess that is part of love, but it’s different than just love. This year t school we have lost many, many which were seniors and one of them was my best friend. When I first met this amazing, beautiful, and smart girl I didn’t really think of us as being friends, but in the end we are the bestest friends in the world. It all started at a Halloween get together. I was staying with a friend and she was there too. I didn’t really want to get to know her, but that all changed after that night. I considered her a friend and I felt so good! She is so amazing. But now she is not here at the school anymore and even though I don’t feel happy at all because of that, it seems like my friendship with her has grew even more. There is this bond between us that is never going to be split apart. When I had to say goodbye to her, it was the hardest thing I had to do in my life. I cried and cried and cried. I didn’t want to let go of her arms embracing me ever so tightly. I knew that was going to be the last hug for a while. That night I couldn’t barely sleep, all the memories that we have had in these short months will ever be with me. I love her so much and I just pray to God that he leads her to a safe place and leads her down a good path, a path where she will meet amazing friends just like her friends she had over here. I still think about her all the time and that feeling I have for her is a feeling of a great friendship, a friendship that will never end and keep growing strong.

A friend forever is……….forever.

L.O.V.E.

Love. What exactly is love? Is it a feeling, or an expression? Or both? Love is precious. You cherish it with all your heart and soul. It’s hard to express it when you are deeply in love. Everything around you seems to fade away and it’s all about the other person. You would do whatever for that special someone and you would just die if something happened to them. That is when God comes into the picture. God is an amazing God. He works miracles that we could never see happening. It’s amazing how God loves us no matter what we do or say to others. His love is outstanding and ever so capturing. He endures us to so more and more for ourselves and to others. Being able to love someone so powerful like God takes the commitment of yourself to make that happen.


Answer some of these questions and see if you can give a honest answer to them.


1. Do you say you love someone just because?


2. Does God play a part in your life?


3. How many people on the top of your head love you? Think of an estimate.


4. If you had an extra pair of hands would you reach out to others more?


5. Does your boyfriend or girlfriend say they “love” you every morning? every night? Before bed?


6. If so, do you think they mean it?


Tell God exactly how much you love him……pour out your heart to him……give him your everything, because in the end you will never regret this moment.

UCA

Well it all started with the build up of faith. Faith in our father. The days were counting down and I needed to get a decent grade in my Pre-Calc class. I began putting most of my time into my math studies and I thought that things were going good. Test time came and I kept telling myself, I can do this. It can’t possibly be that hard! So I got a good grade on that test and then I had one more week until the end of the semester. I needed this test to be good so I could end with a good average. I did great on my assignments and I studied for the last test. The day finally came. LAST DAY. But I got the test and got through the first couple of problems and around the fifth one I began to panic and didn’t know for sure what to do. I always pray before my tests and this time I prayed many more times that day. I had to come back to take the test, because it just took me forever to think about the problems. So I turned that test in and I kept had this feeling that I could do okay. Which in my head is not the best I could do. So I had to stress the whole weekend to find out what I had and this grade depended on my going to this most amazing school that I am currently attending, UCA. This school has brought so many great blessings to my life. I have met God in so many new ways and continue to believe and have faith him even more after this incredible lesson I have learned. But anyways I finally found out what my grade was and I didn’t hit the goal I was going for. I was off by about 1.2%. I was thinking God how can I get that close? So then I knew I had to call my aunt and uncle and tell them about it. It was the hardest thing to do, because I knew what the deal was and I didn’t make it. I thought that my life couldn’t get and worse then it already had. My aunt just said take a breathe and calm down. I was crying so bad I felt like my head was going to explode. So I had to wait the following week to know what the answer was if I was going to have to pack my bags up that following week or stay. I couldn’t think about anything else. Luckily that whole week I didn’t have any homework, because I probably wouldn’t have done that good. But it came down to the night that I was going to find out. Before all this I had been praying with my teachers and my counselor. I needed God to answer my prayers right now. I felt as if I had a huge increase of faith that I gained within that week. Those moments of thinking I was going to loose something so incredible as this school was just terrible. I had met so many good friends, teachers, and most of grew closer to God here. I didn’t want to leave that behind. I wanted more and more.
So my uncle was talking to me and he was like well me and your aunt decided what we were going to go and my heart stopped. I was waiting there……..it felt like a hour had just passed and I was thinking okay, come on tell me and he was like well me and your aunt love you very much and we think that the best place to be right now is UCA. Wow was that an incredible answer to receive from him. I instantly started to burst into tears and began to thank him so much for his amazing grace. He had just made me the luckiest girl in the world. Well that is what I thought. I got off of the phone and I just began to thank God so much!


Isn’t it incredible how much God listens to you, how much people love you so much that they would do anything for you? Well I felt the faith in me begin to build up and settle in a good area. The area where God is present in me. I felt so blessed to have loving family, friends, teachers, etc that are there for me. I thank God everyday for his blessings and his future blessings on me and others that need it more.

Taking a Stand......

Being able to stand up for your self is one key ingredient in your life. Can you guess what the other one is? God. It is as simple as that. You may not understand what I am meaning by just the word "God".

When you have those days in life that you want to just give up on everything and let anything happen. Being able to accept God into your life is the most powerful and acceptable thing I have done. I have had those moments where I wanted to let everything go and give up, I didn't care what happened to me in the future, I didn't care about the people around me and I certainly didn't want God to be in my life. That is when I needed to take a stand, not only for myself, but God. What I mean about that is that I doubted many things so far and there was no hope in my life. I needed to stand up to God and tell him that I needed his comfort, I needed his loving arms to embrace me, to take away the pain I was suffering with. You don't know how hard it is to do that. I raised my arms high into the air and said, "God help me, I need you right now. I am ready to give my life to you and for you to cleanse me. Show me the way I need to go in my life, because right now I don't know what to do." I needed to stand up and show others that I was not going to give up.

God is the number one person in my life and I don't think I could have made it this far in life without his help. Scripture is powerful. Once you open that book up in your hands, it's hard to doubt The Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirt. God lives in you and around you. Take a chance in life and stand up for what you have been hiding all these years........Give your heart to God.
