“But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.” Jeremiah 17:7-8

Woot Woot! thanks to my friend Ashley!!

1 Peter 1:22 which says, "You were cleansed from your sins when you obeyed the truth, so now you must show sincere love to each other as brothers and sisters. Love each other deeply with all your heart."

hello everyone!!

I hope that everyone had a great day today!!! Mine wasn't to bad :) i had class most of the day but then came home finished up some home work read some gospel and got ready for bed! I just wanted to talk about a few things that are on my mind.

I got to talk to a great friend of mine today about religion.
Now i am not very smart when it comes to knowing things about other religions in the world, But i dont find it interesting that there are so many...

I herd some where that all religions pretty much believe the same things... now to me i dont agree with that, but would like to hear other opinions.
So this is a question i want to put out there..

What is the reason for all the different religions, and after breaking them down do they really all have the same basic views?

just some food for thought :)

A friend showed me this song!!! it is wonderful!

*Jeremiah 46

As this chapter talks about war and fighting, i makes me think of trying to put myself in the shoes of a fighter. I feel like alot of people these days just dont really understand what it means to really fight for what you believe in, and trust me im not saying i know what it means. There is so much war in the world and its like most of us are sugar coated to it. We can go a life time with out ever even seeing or knowing someone close to us that died for what they believe in. Does that make you feel weak? Thats how i look at it.... I see it as we are a people, a generation who gets everything sugar coated.... we do not know what it means to really die for something.

*Luke 2

I really loved reading this chapter. Getting short different views on Jesus birth! very cool. I would really like to know more about Anna the prophet.
I also really love the shepherds story, they we doing what they do every day, and out 0f no where God called them. They followed!! With out even thinking about it! Wonderful!

*Galatians 1

alrighty... so this chapter was just kinda of a hey this is who i am set up....there is one line i really liked "Im not trying to please people, i want to please God. Do you think i am trying to please people? If i were doing that, i would not be a servant to God." .... that is a very gutsy statement.

So here i am one more day of not
Loving him the way he asks
In fact my heart is singing praises to the things
That make me feel alright

So i'm sinking fast like a stone heart should
And on the way down i've done what i could
To try and try to turn this stone to flesh

I'm haunted by my god
Who has the right to ask me
What by the nature
Of my rebellion i cannot give

So i beg for you to move i beg for you to move
I beg for you to breakthrough
I beg for you to move i beg for you to move
I beg for you to breakthrough

So here i am got my deeds for the day
All my cute little words
About how i am saved am i saved?

Could i love you with my mouth
Like a church kid should?
The end of the day my words get burned as wood
Oh but i was good

I'm haunted by my god
Who has the right to ask me
What by the nature
Of my rebellion i cannot give

So i beg for you to move i beg for you to move
I beg for you to breakthrough
I beg for you to move i beg for you to move
I beg for you to breakthrough

These songs are noise in your ears
A clanging drum you want my love

So i beg i beg i beg
Oh i beg for you to move i beg for you to move
I beg for you to breakthrough
So i beg for you to move i beg for you to move
I beg for you to breakthrough oh

to me loving someone is to be willing and strong enough to put all your trust in God, no matter how much something may hurt and confuse you. To never say or think a hurtful thing towards that person and to always respect and support what they ask for no matter what it causes you. To always push them to their dreams so they know they are reachable. To forever pray for them and to just want to make them smile! :)
