                                          Hey there everybody! I was fiddling around with a                     designer and came up with some things. They are not that great and                     the backgrounds are not my photography! 😊                                                           Let your Words                                                               Let your Life             Let the Light of the World...

I really don’t know why I am writing this I think it is because of the overwhelming amount of younger and older kids in church today. I have always had a bond with children. I  love holding, cuddling, teaching, watching, helping extr. the babies. I hope you feel the same way. God has given some of us siblings and some of us none, but we thank him anyways. Me being the oldest of four children you would think I had a lot of experience but really I haven’t and if I did do a lot with my siblings I don’t remember much. {Being almost 6 years ago that my youngest sibling was born} I have only one sister 6 years younger than me too, so I think that might be a reason that  I enjoy children because I don’t have little siblings to cuddle, though I have to admit that they do let me cuddle a little bit. Anyways when you see a child crying but something tells you, “Well their mother will take care of that.” Where in the world did that come from?!! Ignore that conciense and move o...

Why, oh why are we afraid? I have always had problems with fear and anxiety, but have learned to cope and live with it. I was wanting to write something when the words ‘Faith like a Child’ kept running through my head. I finally decided to get it down on paper. The Bible says we need to have faith like a child. I can’t find where it is, if you know let me know! Anyways a couple places Jesus talks about faith are in the Gospel books when miracles and parables happen. Once when He and his diciples were on the sea of Galiee…… and there came a storm and they woke Jesus. He settled the waves and then turned to them and said, “Why are you so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?” Again He approched the subject faith but in another view this time. He talks about it in the story about the woman washing Jesus’ feet with her hair and oil. Simon Peter gets after her, but Jesus said, “Thy faith has saved thee; go in peace.” There he was saying that we had faith or at least some o...

Music. Ah! The pleasant melodies running through my head. Music is not to be higher than God and it can be easy to make it so. Music is a needed thing in my life. I have a passion and somewhat talent for music. Having a lesson in music, on two different instruments, in one hour is kind of stressful, but it doesn’t need to be. It also can be enjoyable. I remember wanting to play violin and my parents said,…… “No, not until after you have at least two years of piano. I was sorta disappointed but after I started I really like it and play piano pretty well now. After piano though I didn’t go to violin {even though I did try for a little it didn’t work out} I went to ukulele and mandolin and have throughly enjoyed it. I think music is important in everyone’s lives to praise and worship the Lord. It also seems to settle an inner joy and peace inside of you. And for one other thing music seems to do is put you on the positive, good side of things. Have you ever had a passion fo...

When some think of Easter they think bunnies and eggs. Now where in the world did that come from? Bunnies don’t even come out of eggs. I have been thinking about it and my cousin came up with the conclusion that Jesus came out of the tomb just like a  chick comes out of an egg. Now I don’t really believe that, but that was his idea. I don’t know where the bunnies come in   So if you have any ideas comment below. But before I stop writing I am going to type up a little of my thoughts on the resurrection and crucifixion chapters. So get out your Bible because I suggest that you read the verses and then check out the thought. {or it might not make sense} Luke 22:40 Notice that is says,…… ” ….that ye enter not into temptation.” I thought that was interesting in the fact that Jesus is kind of saying if you do not pray Satan will take that privlidge. I don’t know really what it means but that is what it tells me. Luke 22:42 I thought it was interesting that Jesus s...

I have recently just been struck by the amazing love and care that God has for us. Think about it. God cared enough to give you parents. He loved you enough to give his Son. He cared enough to even make you. All your figures were fashioned by God and now he is fashioning your heart and he even cared enough to do that! Wow! God you are the most amazing God in all the world! I will always praise and worship you and NO ONE ELSE! Another thing that has hit me recently is we need to step out in faith. Trust God because he is in control. Believe him and know He is ready to be your personal Savior. When we become a follower we need to have faith and stand up for Christ. I know it might be hard but let’s encourage each other and stand up for Him. Let’s have the faith of a mustard seed Brothers and Sisters! Sorry about the pink backround that might just be normal or it is because I will be transferring these posts.
