A Matter of the Heart


Have you ever just felt awful inside, with no will to do anything, or please anyone, and no matter how hard you tried to explain, no one could understand you?!
My Father often refers to it as a "heart issue". When we are out of touch with our maker Jesus, nothing in our lives make much sense. Our lives start to become a senseless, worthless, mindless waste of time and effort. Its God's way of telling us, we need him even more than we know! Sometimes we take a leap of faith all based on us instead of on God, and just to prove to us how fruitless our lives are without him, he backs off.
And just like he knew it would, our lives start to go south. My life has had several ups and downs, and its all because I don't learn my lesson the first time all the time. I am a truly weak person without God behind me.
When he is with me, I can be a tower of strength, a beacon of hope for the lost, and I can have a heart of pure gold! For all is possible with God! As I have grown and matured, God has opened my eyes to allot of things, some of which were very painful to learn. The things I have lost, and the trials I have experienced, are nothing compared to what awaits me after life here on earth. Because God is my Lord, I have received pardon for all of my sins, both committed and thought! Its scary to think that God knows everything that we think everyday!
Watch for the signs, if the people around you avoid you, you are not in the right "heart mode". God alone can fix your "heart problems". Turn to him, for he is the light in the dark! God Bless!

When things go dark!


Have you ever been in an ice storm, or a tornado when all of a sudden all of your lights in the house go out?! There is nothing like being trapped in the dark. There are no walls to hold you in, but you feel trapped! Your sight is one of the precious gifts God has given you, when you can't see, you panic!
God is often referred to as the light of the world. God truly is the light in the darkness, anyone in their right mind, when they are in the dark and they can't see, will run to any light source they see. Yet thousands of lost souls, literally run away from the light, and right back into the darkness of sin! But, before we accepted Christ, we were just as foolish to continue running into the darkness. But there is hope for them too! God tells us to go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.(Mark 16:15) We are the result of God great works of love and forgiveness. God also tells us to be a witness.(Acts 1:8) If we live for the Lord, we also, become a light in the darkness! Back to a house with no light, even the smallest candle makes a big difference! Be the little candle in this dark world, and lead the way through the darkness, to the only way into eternal life, the Lord Jesus Christ! Thank you for reading! Have a blessed day!

The Silver Lining


Do you ever think of how easy life was when you were a kid? Your parents tell you what to do, and you do it...most of the time. You never had to make any decisions, your parents made all of them!
But now, growing into a young adult, your childhood living comes down quite suddenly, and now you got your wish, your parents aren't going to make your decisions for you, now you get to! And all of a sudden, things look quite different, you have so much responsibility, you don't know what to do with it!
Without God, we are pushed head long into the world without our most important tool. Its like sending a sky diver out of the plane without a parachute! Same applies to both, when we get to where we are going to be in life, if its without God, like that skydiver without a parachute, the end result is very messy and fatal! There are people in church, who say to themselves, this is great, I can take care of myself, I don't really need God, but I am a good person, so I'll stay here. Next time to go to church, look around, if what you see, is people with dull sleepy expressions, with jaw slack, or yawning, your in the wrong church! If you claim to be on fire for the Lord, BE ON FIRE! If you claim to love the Lord, LOVE HIM! There really is not half way, your either there, or your not! God would like nothing better that to count you as one of his children, he stands by, ever patient, waiting for you to ask him in! When people realize how they have sinned against the creator of the whole universe, they will want to run to the feet of God. That is what we need to do daily, run to the feet of our Savior, cause without him, we are but dust! The silver lining, if you personally know God, your going to spend the rest of your life with him! All the trials that we experience down here on earth will be rewarded with eternal life, if you have God in your heart, its like a ONE WAY ticket to heaven, for truely, God is the only way to heaven! Thank you for reading, keep reading and keep commenting! God Bless! <3

Sunday

My All


God is not satisfied until he has your all! Your heart, and soul, and mind, passed up to him to do as he will with them!
We all have a purpose, though we never find out about it right away, we need to wait, and keep our eyes open, for the day that God will reveal his plan for our lives. I can honestly say, God does not have my whole heart, but I want him too! I have not sacrificed myself , so that I might be the tool God wants me to be.
The only way to be fully given to God, is to sacrifice your fleshly wants and desires, and let God provide for your needs. He knows who that special person is that you will spend the rest of your life with, he knows when you need money, or when you need the energy just to make it through the day. There is know one else who knows more about you than God!
I am thankful that God has patience, cause I am still struggling trying to lay my life down at his feet. How wicked and deceitful the heart really is! Whether you believe it or not, you need to sacrifice your flesh to God, in order for him to use you the way your supposed to be used. God died for you, the least you can do is give your life back to him! I wish you all a Happy New Year! I hope you keep reading and commenting! God bless and love to all! <3

Thursday

How do you pass the past?!


What can you do, when nagging deep within you is a love of the past, and it just won't fully go away?! How much you long to be rid of this agony, but at the same time, how much you want the past to be real again!
Is it a sign from God when the past just won't go away, or is Satan forever dangling it in your face?! You never truly know, until God shows you.
Everyday, I pray to God for his will, but is part of his will, my past?!
I can't fall down, knowing there is hope, neither can I stand up knowing its hopeless! But I know neither, so how shall I lie, or how shall I stand?!
So, I am sitting, not quite without hope, and not quite with it, just sitting, forever waiting for God's complete plan! For I know that God does not do anything without a purpose, and all I long for is the purpose, and plan of God! When will God stop hiding the truth from me?! When will I once again see what needs to be seen, and avoid those things which are evil?! I know only God himself can answer.
So, how do I sit, until I know whether the past is the future, or the past is forever lost?! Please help me Lord, for in my heart, I want to please you, in all that I do, show me the way, and I will not stray, forever in the pages of your living word! God bless!

Jackson Hole Bible College


I am finally on my last year of high school, and am now getting ready for my big step into adulthood!
I found a college that doesn't just look awesome, but fits my personality to a tee! :D
I am so very excited to be going I can't wait to have enough money for this! I wish money grew on trees! School has been going well, and God has really helped me become a more joyful young woman! I still can't get over the fact I am 18 now! Even more scary is the fact that in 2 years, I will be 20! :O My mom and dad don't even want to think about that!
