Love them like Jesus
Do I really love people like Jesus? I think about how Jesus explained who our neighbors are. Our neighbors include everyone the homeless man,the buisnessman, the church goers, the ones who do not care for church. We need to show mercy to everyone.Maybe it even goes even further. What would a world look like if we were all compassionate towards others? I may be thinking a little bit to much but at...
Worship? Happiness? Todays society?
Lately I’ve been learning about worship. Worship is not singing a song rather its a lifestyle. We as humans can worship anything. Today I was watching 101 dalmations on the disney channel. One of the characters was saying how she worshipped fur and that it made her happy. This made me think about chapel today. We search for things to bring us happiness but most times they just make us...
Livin life
Am working three jobs now. I am going to school full time(16 hours) God has shown me some beautiful things. There is hope in desperate situations(homelessness) and that people can do things that they dream. My dreaming state right now includes possibly working with invisible children. I realize it is a long shot since I am receiving my BA in a Christian Studies. Maybe if I graduate with honors I...
Homeless?
The homeless people we see everyday are just like the rest of us. Only differences is that they sleep on the streets..and if they are lucky they may or may not have a sleeping bag to keep them warm at night. I believe the church is called to help the homeless. But do we hold back on helping because it is out of our comfort zones? Well here is the deal. God has been pushing more so out of my...

Christmas thought
Wish I could be with the homeless..who have no family to spend this beautiful holiday with. Instead of recieving the gift, I wish I had a way to be making balloon animals,handing out socks,poetry,and nature photos. Those people need a spark of hope.
worship
Tonight I went to a Christmas Eve service…you know the usual thing. We were going over the Christmas story. Well after each reading there was a song. During the song Here I am to Worship a couple people were raising their hands. Then the little girl in the row in front of me rose her hands. It was probably one of the most humbling things I have seen in awhile. What if I had the courage to...

Did you not get raptured?
Thats okay :) Neither was I. But someone came up with the coolest idea. To create legit tshirts. All proceeds go to an orphanage. My boyfriend lives there and some other good friends of mine. Your helping a christian cause out. A lot of the kids and young adults who live here have parents in jail or homeless…something along the lines of that. It mean a lot to me if you could support both.

Love the poor
This year has been a learning process. God has broken my heart for the poor. Homeless people are now my ministry. I love them. They have genuine hearts and most appreciate a conversation.It all started with a ministry named remedy. Now my life has a new beginning with what is called the prodigals home. This people just crave relationship,friendship,acceptance,love, just like the rest of us. There...

oh contradictions
I’m a Christian,but by my actions you really won’t be able to tell. Sometimes I cuss,lie,cheat,and backstab people. In reality my intentions of being “good” never work. I’m sorry I tend to be a hypocrite.I realize it though and try my best to stop being that way. God though needs to help me.He is the only one who can forgive me fully of my sins and not hold them...

college life?
Endurance is the key word for right now.Some of my classes really suck bad.Its not even the class itself but the teachers that make it semi miserable.The college is good for the most part and a lot of people are nice to me.Spiritually there is a lot offered for me.I just got back from a retreat which was amazing.I jumped the leap of faith and went off the catch the bar.Also did the zipline which...

Judging others
Matthew 7:1-5 “Do not judge others, and you will not be judged. For you will be treated as you treat others. The standard you use in judging is the standard by which you will be judged. “And why worry about a speck in your friend’s eye when you have a log in your own? How can you think of saying to your friend, ‘Let me help you get rid of that speck in your eye,’ when you can’t see past the log...
God
Sometimes is so unfathomable.I can wrap my mind around His love.God thinks of me as his precious daughter.He understands what I can not.That concept does indeed fustrate me at times. “There is a purpose for those who wait”-Fireflight Its true though for sure.

story of my life
Getting accused of things I know for a fact I didn’t do.So dumb and pointless. Am done trying to make this work.
Worship is not about what you wear.
Worship is not about the type of song you sing.
Its about the heart you worship with.The Bible says that God looks at the heart rather than outward apperances.Also the bible says this in John4:24:”God is spirit,and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.” We can just open ourselves up to God and he will listen.For we praise the God that...
To that one friend in your life that does not feel accepted.They are.To that one person you know who wants to run away,why not run to Jesus? He is there at the cross waiting for you.
I get out this house for awhile today.Its gonna be really really nice to hang out with some church friends.Tomorrow I’m going to church and thats gonna be good.This afternoon consisted of me cooking grilled cheese sandwhiches and blasting my wonderful music.Singing at the top of my lungs because thats just my heart. I’m now in a relationship with my wonderful boy. My future is weary...
Yes.I’m a nerd.Idepedence day was a very historic day. Leading up to idependence day was a flat out war led by George Washington aka America’s first president. I know I’m rambling but very long ago people fought for freedom.And today people still our fighting for the same freedm.America has gotten more liberal but I think each and every one of us needs to be thankful that someone...
What makes a family anymore? Is it the constant arguing and fighting? I am really not understanding this madness.There is something wrong when the dog is more of pirority then you are.
Stories
Everyone has a story whether or not we realize it.Some people have a shorter one others have it longer.Sit down and listen to a random person you have never met you may be quite surprised of what you hear.
At the mall the other day I was chilling at a starbucks inside my local mall.I met a lady with two family members that was telling me about what living in London and Italy was like.From what...

Goobyes are hader when they are left unsaid.Hello’s are never really that good of impressions.You never will know a person until they let you in.Its the truth when it comes to real friendship.In reality its not far to judge book by its cover.But thing is we always make judgements about people.As much as I hate to admit it I’m pretty sure even though I do.
Forgotten
Once again I am always used and forgotten about.My family is leaving me behind while they go on a family vacation.This is rather typical. God,why I seriously wish someone save me from this madness.And like now my friends have forgotten to invite me places.
Changed
Some of you might call me crazy or a Jesus freak.That is okay because I’ve experienced the touch of God in a way that is memorable.God healed me from depression on Monday November 14th 2010.I was dealing with losing a best friend to suicide. It was such a struggle to keep going.I got a job and then lost it.My family is going through a financial crises. So basically I open myself up to God...

someone wanna tell me when life gets better..
okay..thanks
Partially not done
If only you know how I truely felt.
You would wonder how I even dealt.
My thoughts are running faster than ever
I can’t please anyone now,no never
Seems to me is I end up getting used
This leaves me hurt and confused
Wishin for once someone would approve of me
It would be a better way than this you see.
a rant
I’m just a dreamer who never manages to break ground.A revolutions afraid to speak or even move. Opionated but usually never heard. Is this going to change or stay the same? I wonder when my voice matters in life.The real me is waiting to break out under this shell.This shell though has a hard covering that either need to be cracked or needs to trust someone to move out.I can’t but...
My dreams are no longer existing.They have been buried by control freaks.I’m being pushed to do what I don’t wanna. It makes no sense,I was taught my whole life to dream big.That in itself was the biggest lie anyone has anyone told me.Nobody understand this concept apparently.All I am is a nobody who will never amount to anyone.
I’m the girl people use and when they don’t need me anymore..I’m thrown away. Nobody gets the fact that this feeling sucks.
I’m a day dreamer in a world where thinking for yourself is not allowed.
My brain tends to overthink things.Its not always a good thing either.I wish one person would listen to my hopes and dreams.I look around and church friends don’t have my back.Neither does my family.I’m honestly at the point where I can say growing up sucks.Especially the feeling of being alone at a constant.Many people my age are dating and I’m not.Yes I hang out with a guy from...
A song comes from deep within my heart.Exposing how I feel on the inside and who I wanna be on the out.
life here and now
Still am looking for a job.Applying everywhere humanly possible. I’ve applied tons of places at the mall. Time to try the food industry. In the next few months I’m moving but thats not really new to me.I am trying to get on a college league soccer team.Its not easy but I am gonna work my butt off and try.

Random thoughts
Okay so what if the people of the church actually did love one another? I’m talking about agape(or unconditional love).See thing is its different if your trying to help someone with situations or problems but you can’t sit there and point fingers.You do not know the motive of the heart.What you see on the outside automatically is what of you think of the person on the inside.This is...
