The Final Touch

How I love the rain.

It brings new life

and brings new hope.

sometimes it feels too much for me to cope:)

Because for me, rain is more then water.

Its like drops of life from the Father.

Like something worth living for.

makes my life feel like something more.

although in more ways then one, I may be small.

But when He brings the storms, I feel quite tall.

Because its only when they come do I truely see.

The girl he really saw, in the deepest part of me.

Like I said, I may be small.

Not very tall.

Not very strong for that matter.

Not very loud, but rather,

quite and weak.

certianly not a warrior, I would seek.

Oh how fearful I am!

Just as harmless as a little lamb. :)

But back to the rain, where my story first began.

Because as you can see, thats where most life comes to be.

As for me, I am like a flower.

Oh how under the ground I cower.

Ah! but alas the storm reels in.

oh, what a coward I have been.

But one thing I don't realize as a flower.

is that the God I serve has so much power.

The water I fear, makes me grow.

grow more, then even I would know.

So in seeing he knows best.

Probably better then the rest.

I finally can see my petals shine.

Reflecting Gods love, and beautiful design.

I see myself come back to life.

just like the trees in december.

I come back and surrender.

So now you see, why I love the rain so much.

Because in the end, I always see, Gods Final Touch.

Beauty is VAIN D:

"Beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord, shall surely be praised."
well amen to that scripture! (that I so terribly forgot the name to D:) Beauty is vain indeed.
I think Christian women find true beauty, when they find it in the Lord. When
He becomes where their eyes and hearts are set; and thats where the true beauty begins. :)
idk, short little thought. Add opon it, if you will. x)
hehe, oh well, I hope somebody was encouraged by it! haha!
I know I was!

A Divine Appointment

     So a few days ago, God met me and my brother Matthew at a Mc Donalds (haha! imagine that). He used three guys(brothers), who not only didn't speak english, but didn't even know us; complete strangers. They had heard about my aunt Kelli's fatial condition from my friend who works there, and had asked if they could pray for us. And boy did they pray!

I have never heard a more sincere, and passionate prayer in my life.
They prayed for my aunt as if they knew her, as if she was apart of their own family.
You can hear them pour out their heart and soul to God, and pray for his mercy and grace, whatever the outcome.
As I listened more, I heard them mention our names. They prayed not only for her, but for us. They prayed that God would help us in our school, with our friends, in our lives; and treated us, yet again, as family!
Almost as if we've known eachother somehow. God's love was undeniably present in that room.

What I absolutely love about these guys, is that they weren't even sure if we understood a word they were saying! haha! they didn't know if we'd be uncomfortable, or if we'd be awkward about it; They really didn't care! The focus was God, and nothing else mattered to them. They just wanted to love us, and pray for us as Jesus would. :) Now thats an example of Gods love!
Now I have to stop and ask myself; would I do that? would I cross the line and love on someone I don't even know? What about if they didn't speak my language? what then? Thats integrity!

The men told us afterward, "we just thanked God, for the brother and sister in Christ, he has just blessed us in meeting. God bless you guys." -Sigh-.. and blessed, is exactly what we were. We couldn't stop geeking out about it on the way home. :) hehe
Any thoughts?
I'd love to hear what you guys think! :D
let me know!

On My Own

This is my favorite song, ever since I was little.. it still remains my favorite to this day. Its my cry out to God. When I can't do something on my own.. I love this song, because it reminds me I don't have too, and I'm not on my own. He is the same God who led the israelites out of Egypt, He is the same God who brought the dead to life, and he is the same God here with me now. So, yeahh.. :]
Favorite song everybody. hahaha<3

Easier Said.

Is having one of those,"why is this happening?" moments.
Everything feels so unstable. So delicate. That if I make a mistake, it will
crush my spirit, and I'll feel incapable. Kinda ironic since my last post said otherwise..
I can say one things for sure, everything is easier said then done.. but then again.. it won't stop me from trying. Ughh, I feel like I'm stepping on broken glass here. Oh Lord, give me strength.

-mICH

Believe the Possiblity :)

So many things you wish you could have done.
So many things you wish you could have said.
And so many things you wish you could have BEEN!
sadly.. theres this nasty little thing called "Fear," and what this thing does, is acts like a barrier around someones mind, making them actually believe that they will just be made fun of, be worthless, or maybe,
their efforts are just pointless and redundant. Theres no bother in trying.
The reason I post this, is because more and more in my life am I seeing others, and myself alike, be too fearful of the unknown. :( like, being afraid of what could happen, and all the "what ifs" life has.
raise your hand if you've even felt this, because I sure as heck have. :P
When you feel like its impossible to be a light, or its impossible to be who God made you to be.
Hey, but let me tell you this:
Satan knows exactly what your capable of.
He knows exactly what your best at.
And he'll do whatever it takes to keep you from knowing it.
As long as he can get you to believe its impossible, hes already beaten you.
Don't buy into this!
Impossible is not an action, its an opinion!
Now don't get me wrong, because I'm not saying that everything IS possible. I'm saying with everything, you are capable. So long as you believe that, with God, you are enabled.

Satan however, so desprately wants you to believe that your not capable, your not strong enough, and ultimately, you just not enabled!

Heres how the dictionary explains the word "impossible." These are a few of my favorites: "irrealizable, irreparable, absurd, not a prayer, out of the question, unachievable..."
these are just a few of the hundreds I found.
What you think isn't possible (although you may not say it) is written in its natural form here.
Unachievable. Absurd. Out of the Question.

But God, is a God of action! a God of purpose! if you are created in his image, what does that make you?

So I just wanna close with this final list that I also found in the dictionary..
achievable, believable, obtainable, reasonable, tenable, and possible.

        Impossible is just a big word thrown around by men who find it easier to live
        in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it.
        Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare.
        Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.

Beiber Fever?

I was just thinking today of how cool it would be, to show up at your house, and say "hey mom, can I go out with __celebrity name__?"  haha! I never thought of that before, but for some reason the thought enticed me. Hmm.. Odd. Maybe its a girl thing. ughh.. the joy of being a girl eh? :P
anyway, I wanna know why that happens!! Is it the whole power feeling?? or is it just a pride boost (uh-oh)? Two very bad things, that I hope I am not sick with. D:
haha! whatever it is, its not good. Probably another reason why I don't fantasize. :P
BUT, in this case I did. And I am probably going to hate myself for saying who I thought would be a cool person to go out with.

Yep. You guessed it.

Justin Bieber.

DEAR GOODNESS, I SAID IT! ahh.
You didn't hear it from me! D:
am I sick??
I think I'm sick.
With this odd, yet completely immature and girly term called, Bieber Fever.
Yuck. I feel like a disgrace.
haha! honestly tho, I've got nothing against the boy. Hes just the best target to pick on! ^_^
What I do dislike, is that he is basicly the perfect guy. And that bothers me.
And I want to bet you, that he knows that.
I mean, you can't be that good, and maintain this "I'm pure" propaganda of yours, at the same time.
And to throw it all in there, he claims he also loves God! Whats up with that??
dang boy, you got a pretty big gut to think that you can maintain purity,
and be the most hottest teenager in the world. Yeah. Good luck with that one.
I'm not saying its not possible he could (MAYBE) pull it off, but being "the most wanted" guy in the world,
its not the easiest task. Especially with a magnifying glass held over you, like a target.
Now personally. I am not attracted to mister Justin. Probably never will be.
I wont deny hes an attractive kid, but I never cared for celebrities, and I really don't plan to now.
I prefer looking at the more "actually possible", options. ;) haha!
But anywho, thats my perspective on mister Bieber. lol :)
what do you think?
leemme know!

Closing Chapter..

Haha! to this day I still continue to wonder, how God is so long suffering with me.
He has hope for me (probably because he already knows my life), and he believes in me.
So if he believes this, how come sometimes I don't believe in myself?
have you ever been caught in that kind of situation? ughh, it stinks don't it? :)

     Really this entire experience of me being broken and unable before Christ, has
been such an eye opener. I mean for the past few months, all I've wanted is peace,
and never knew how to obtain it. It almost feels like putting yourself in a box
for years; and enclose yourself in fear, insecurity, and doubt. Your skin is pale
white from the completely lack of sunlight (Jesus) in your life.
Anyhow, its not a fun experience.
But coming out of it is like breathing again!
its like being born again! Jesus is pumping through my veins. :)
I know this defintately isn't over..
but neither am I.
So I will continue to fight. With Jesus by my side.
Closing this chapter of my life, has really taught me to trust in God,
and let the Holy Spirit guide me! Open my heart and mind
to his words! Not letting the bonds of fear, insecurity, or doubt, bind me!

But one thing above all that I've learned for sure.. Is that, I can't do this on my own.

Now all of my life, I freely give

Because of your love, Because of your love I live


Innocent and Holy king

You died to set the captive free

All because of your love

Lord you gave your life for me

So I will give my life for you

All because of your love

Because of your cross my debt is paid

Because of your blood my sins are washed away

Now all of my life I freely give

Because of your love, because your love I live



You did it for me, you did it for love

I'ts your victory, Jesus you are enough.

A.Hunting.We.Will.Go

Had the most fantastic Halloween ever. :)
Got stalked by a zombie guy. But I hissed at him. ^_^ DON'T MESS WITH THIS FELION!
bahahaha! ohh the rediculous-ness of it all. <3
Probably one of the most funniest nights ever.
Lol, and when the zombie started to chase us (Belle Logie, Stephanie Stew.) We started singing to him: Belle: Listen to me baby,
Me+Steph: oh oh oh oh!
Belle: I don't want to decieve you!
Me+Steph: oh oh oh oh!

and then were all like: "I MIGHT TEAR YOU APART!! BABY FROM THE START! OHH, FROM THE START! IM ONLY GONNA BREAK-BREAK-BR-BREAK, BREAK, YOUR HEART!!"
While running away screaming. :)
So yeah man, gotta say it was a pretty killer night. Nathan ran into a spider as big as a friggin quarter. ahahaha! it was a live one too. lol :P

Second Glance, Counts First.

I am doing homework. At 10:30 at night. And I have immeasurable Joy!
To fill you in on a little secret of mine; I'm a perfectionist. Everything I do must be (to the best of my ability) perfect. Personally, I think it can be kind of a burden at times.. but it modivates me to reach for the 100% with school. But I procrastinated, and now everything is backed up on me. How the heck am I positive about that?? Well I need to look at the bright side of whatever this thing is, I call, my life.
I am living and breathing the very day that the lord hath made. The beauty, never ceasing, all around me.
I have a mom who loves me (Even if she can be a bit.. you know.. patronizing), as much as I love her.
Same for father! and brother.. my brother's proud of me. Actually proud of me, after so many years..
He loves me as a sister rather then stranger. haha! as odd as that is.
My family's putting back the pieces again.
Were finally more bound then we have been for so many years of our lives.
Thank you God. For answering my prayers, and lifting up this beautiful little family you've given me.
We haven't been perfect, but the mere fact that my tears are growing thinner,
and my family isn't the cause of my miseries anymore; is a real blessing.
All I've done is complain. Thats all I've ever done! I've looked at the blessings in life,
and not even giving them a second glance. And now that I see them..
What can I do to repay you for such kindness?
Do everything. All the duties that the You entitled to me. willingly with pure joy.
Now that Father.. I will do gladly. <3
thank you for what you've done..

Love, your daughter,

Where you move.

ironic.. how when people tell me I have joy..
I currently have tears streaming down my face.
When everyone else walks out on me,
When people think I'm a faliure.
God whispers back," Your wrong! because
you don't know my little girl, like I do."
Hes like the most beautiful mom, who cheers
you on, and tells you,"keep working at it sweetie, your doing great!"
when your the only one failing in dance class.
A dad cheering on his son on a football team, telling him to
"get back in the game son, I know you can do this!!"
With a gentle..and beautiful smile on his face.
Lord you are my support. You are my foundation. My strength..
Where you go, I'll go. where you'll stay, I'll stay.
Where you move, I'll move; I will follow you.

-mICH

Lead me.

Oh my gosh.. Man, God forgive me! All these people that you have put in my life, who need to hear you, and I've been totally ignoring them. Make this life less about me.. and more about you. I don't know if anyone saw, "To Save A Life" but that movie is convicting, isn't it?! Don't let this world pass you by, but but help those that are passing through, not just the people you know, but the people you don't! you may never know it.. but God may just use you.. to completely change someones life. All it takes is for you to trust him, and let him work.
Man God, I've really screwed up! I've really messed up! I need to trust in you.
I have to stop thinking that this world is about me.. because it never was.
lead me with strong hands Lord, and guide me, where I'm needed most.
and also God, I pray for you to give my other brothers and sisters and Christ,
to do likewise, and have a passion to serve you, and you alone.
In your beautiful name I pray,
Amen.

"You can do this."

This is a message to those who are like me. And don't think they will amount to anything.
Those that feel like a faliure.. and that nothing they do will ever be good enough.
Jesus says this to you..
"Don't give up.. for I know you can do this. For I believe in you. Even when the
whole world thinks you've a failer, don't give up hope. I had given you these gifts,
and talents, because I knew you could use them. Use what I have given you to the
glory of your God, so that His name my be blessed. So don't give up.. for I Am with you."
Amen to those beautiful, and powerful words!
How great is our God!
-sigh-.. I am so greatful God doesn't give up on me..
Even in the times I give up on him.
So to those are struggling right now, know that your not alone.
Because He is with you. And he.. absolutely loves you.

p.s (those are words that God had whispered into my hurting heart when I needed it.
Soo... no im not plagurising. lol[:)

Sound Turns to Song.

Whenever I go back to everything.. everything that has happened in my life; all my struggles, writings, joys, victories, faliures, trials, and above all, my relationship with my Father in heaven, I see how the spirit works..
idk If anyone noticed this, but none of what I write, is even me anymore. (if you know me anyway)
Also, another thing I noticed, is that there are some times where I'll start encouraging myself. [?]
Weird? no. God? yes!
Haha! Because its not me. Its The Spirit lifting me up.
The Holy Spirit is such a powerful being. Hes God after all.
Once He gets a hold of me, everything I write, do, or say, because entirely his doing.
Its then that I realized I can't write, say, or do, anything profound on my own!
I really wish I could! matter of fact, I've even tried!
Nope. Doesn't work so well. :)
Haha! you might be wondering how I know whether its me or not.
Well its not me;
when the like, turns to love.
When the sound, turns to song. When the hate, turns to compassion.
and above all, when the weakness, turns to Strength.
Its whether or not I want to surrender entirely to my King.
Its time for me to finally let go.. and just let God.

-mICH

How are humble people, humble?!

-sigh-.. so how can people be humble? I mean.. how do they not get even a little prideful sometimes?? I get bitterly jealous of them, because I don't understand it. Like, when you get yelled at, or get corrected at.. oh idunno! Something! how on earth are they able to "humbly" say: "I understand. I totally messed up, I'm so so sorry." I envy that!
lol, but something like that pretty much happened to me today. It was a kind of overwhelming humblness. Actually, how about this: what does "humblness" even mean?? Dictionary.com said:

–noun "the quality or condition of being humble; modest opinion or estimate of one's own importance, rank, etc."
 
or hey, check out this:
—Synonyms

lowliness, meekness, submissiveness.

doesn't it send a little prick in the back of your neck?? haha! it sure does for me!

and its antonym?? -Pride.

As we hate to admit it. Yes. We are prideful to the core. Sinful, "puffy," people. It sure gets to you eh?? like for me, I know theres a problem with that.. I just don't feel like fixing it. You know what I'm saying?
Its no fun being told your wrong, under any circumstances; or maybe! even just being plain, flat out, pride.. although inside you know one thing (and I totally speak for myself) Your not. and you can't do anything alone. You yourself are weak, and you need God every step of the way.

You know, the majority of us struggle with pride in some kinda way, at some point. But when is it time to admit your a failure, your a sinner, and you were a serious screw up to someone, or better yet, God?
Three Word.
Submission. Loweliess. &Meekness.
How can you obtain that? By giving up yourself.. and laying down your life saying,"God do what you want with me.. because I can't do this one my own, and I need you."
Gosh, the moment I truely said that, I FELT AMAZING! wow! the Holy Spirit is quite the uplifter! :)
How amazing my God is: In admiting your weakness, his power is made strong.
2 Corithians 12:9-10
9And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness " Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. 10Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ's sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong.

just thought I'd share this with everyone, because thats what God taught me today.. :)
hope it helped you, just as it helped me<3

In Light Of Blessing..

is currently having crappy growing pains. You may be asking yourself,"HOLY COW, MICHELLE CAN GROW?!?!" and the answer to that is yes. Yes I can, believe it or not. (:
I think God thinks that its time shelly needs to grow a few more inches, so I'm cool with that. :)
anyway, CRAZY DAY! ahaha! got front row seats for a movie (and front seats among other things) xP today, and had tons of fun with my "single lady" ;D
ahh, but all together, I pray God used me today, and can use me all the time for his will.
comon, lets all be armed and ready together, and get this show on the road shall we? :]
Comon guys, don't say to yourselfs,"Ummm.. no thats okay. I have plenty of time." comon man. God made you! your time isn't your own! it belongs to God. and God with it, in you. If we're supposed to be the light[salt] of the world, we are doing a pretty poor job of portraying it. I am totally challanging you to step out of your confort zone, and do whats right! You gotta let the "people pleasing" thing fade, and let God do the work. Those kids will totally wonder why your different. God said in his word,"I blessed you, so you can be a blessing." So go out there.. and bless the world!

My Foundation

I have been wresling with two things in my life right now, and I found two solutions. :)
1: Make Jesus your foundation, so that whenever you question, whenever you come to the end of yourself, go back to what hes shown you.

Kinda like the foundation of a house! it keeps the very structure of the house in place, so that no matter what trial it faces (for the most part d:) its not comin down! Not back to the past where you started! but back to his word in spirit and truth, making him your ultimate right answer. :)

SECONDLY, seeing God as clearly as you see a person right in front of you. Not like a loomy spirit, that visits your mind once in a while for a little chat; but an image of God thats so solid, that neither questions, hurtings, or struggles can hope to break the foundation that he has placed in your very heart, mind, and soul. <3

I can honestly say that I am completely unable to currently discribe to you how awesome this is, in any more profound words then this. :) Its something (like Andrew G. said last night) that you have to experience for yourself. So thats all I have for now! :)

Devastion and Reform. -Relient K

Haha! sometimes it seems to me, that whenever I struggle or something.
I just hide, and don't really do much of anything about it. Truth is, I'm not perfect.
I just would like to be...
Being human is probably one of the worst things to ponder. It seems that everything I do thats wrong, makes me feel that I've had enough grace, and now God is getting frustrated with me. It makes me feel hopeless. Why on earth would a just God allow people who follow him, repeat the same pattern of sin?
"He may not be tame, but he is good."-Chronicles Of Narnia
The reason why I talk about being human, is because sometimes in life, it gets so hard to not betray him, deny him, and be ashamed of him. When I first started my walk, there were things that I swore I'd never do. Everything I denied would get in my way of God, did; and I lost it.
and it really stinks to know you failed.
But hey, like relient K said: "failure is a blessing in disguise" :)
"Thank you God, for giving me that insight, so I might make these wrongs right."
Its a team effort we gotta give. If we want to change, and get better,
we need God in the process. We can't have one or the other.
If one person is defense, the other has to be offense. I'm not saying that
Hes defense or offense specificly, but I'm saying that in every team,
you have to work together. Your sure to fail otherwise. You know?
Just remember..
No matter how many times you fail.
His word in the end, proves true.
"I will Never, leave you. Nor Forsake you."

There will be a brighter day. :)
It just takes the courage to climb the tallest hill to see it. <3

Summer of Hope. :)

Wow. lots to talk about. :)
Well, to start off with, this week I went to knotts
with my bestfriend, and we witnessed to two british girls
from the UK (obviously C:), which was quite the experience. :)
Oh, the irony of it all.
Because I don't know if anyone knows this, but my mom, and her mom
are best friends, and they wake up at 6:00 in the morning (yes. morning.)
and go wittnessing together.
Haha! pretty weird huh?
anyway, it was amazing, I loved sharing my faith with them,
and they were pretty gracious about it. :)
Apparently, theres pretty much no churches in london, and even
if there was, no kids would care to go to it.
A pretty sad situation if you ask me.
Man, what I would have done to have a track with me that day.
I would have given it to both of them. :C
oh well, God had other plans. :)

FURTHERMORE!
I've been drawing so much closer.
closer, then closer. :)
and I'm enjoying every minute of it.
Gods teaching me about living less of me, and more of him.
I'm not that significant in this world. Although with God by my side,
and God in my heart, I have a purpose. I have a job to do here. :)
Hes also been teaching me, that we're aliens in this world pretty much.
We don't belong her. Our real home is much more magnificant. :)
All the stuff I've been learning, have really opened my eyes to see more of the big
picture God is trying to get at. For example: I watched The Chronicles of Narnia the other day, and God pointed out so many things I really didn't notice. :) is was so beautiful. I loved it. :)

You know, I look back at this summer, and can really see all the struggles,
and heartaches in it. It was a "tough n rough" kind of summer.
But now I see what God was aiming at. He didn't want me to be insightful, just with my eyes, but also with my heart.
Because you can truely know the difference between right and wrong, with your eyes.
The tricky part is, knowing the difference between right and wrong, with you Heart.

So, in conclusion, the lesson of the day is:
"Thank you God, for giving me an insight. That I might make these wrongs right.
and If and when, there ever is a next time. 'I'll Remember that failiure is a blessing, in disquise."

Heaven.

"Think about it...no sin, no suffering, no sorrow, no pain. You want to know something? You'll never doubt God in any way. There will be no doubts there. There will be no fear of God's displeasure because God will never be displeased because you'll never do anything to displease Him. No temptation will ever come upon you. Satan will not be there. The world will not be there. The flesh will not be there. There will be no persecution there. There will be no abuse there. There will be no division there. There will be no discord, no disharmony, no disunity, no hate. There will be no quarrels there, no fights, no arguments, no disagreements. Everyone will be perfect and everyone in heaven will agree with what I've been teaching through all these years.
There will be...there will be no disappointments. There will be no anger. There will be no effort. There will be no more fasting because there will be nothing with which to fast or for which to fast. There will be no repentance because there will be nothing to repent of. There will be no confession of sin because there will be no sin to confess. There will be no weeping because there will be nothing to make you sad. There will be no watchfulness because there will be no danger and no temptation and no trial of any kind. There will be no more teaching. There will be no more preaching. There will be no more learning. There will be no more evangelism. There will be no more witnessing. There will be perfect pleasure in Thy presence, and there is joy..."
the list goes on and on..
this was said by John MacArthur on Grace to You radio.

What is Love? :)

Oh my goodness, this is about the most beautiful thing I have read, and it totally describes how I feel right now. The exciting thing is, I wrote this a few months ago! :) (well technically the holy spirit did, but you know. [:)

________True Love__________

Once again, I am yet reminded of how incredible my God is.
He shows me threw people, threw the world, and threw himself.
Sometimes I begin to wonder to myself what I have to
offer such an amazing God.
And the answer to that question is my heart.
My everything.
To be able to dance before the Lord, and give him glory in
all my actions, feelings, and in my imagination. :)
I am most definitely not the perfect daughter.
But his daughter yet I am(:
So in everything I live for, everything I wanna be.. everything I strive to be.
I do it for him.
He who created me in my mothers womb,
he who knew me before time began.
I mean, theres plenty of people in the world, so why me?
I can't even begin to explain how unworthy I am.
but...He wants to call me daughter?
now thats profound.
Therefore, I am royalty to be called daughter of the king<3
My past is forever behind me.. my sins are forgiven.
Best part is, that will never change.

When my story began.. I didn't know what to expect..
Little did I know, that God had an adventure ahead
of me, that was about to unfold(:
Best part is, I had people who could come along side me:)
The leaders to guide me; The family to teach me; and the
brother and sisters in Christ to walk the road with me<3
Wow, what a life.. So where do we start?
We start at the heart:)
and thats where it all begins..<3

-mICH

Surprise. :)

God draws us ever so gently to our knees..
and when we do, hes all we ever wanna be.
When I look back at the past few weeks, I see God touching the
very minutes of my life. Everything I went through, he was using it
for a purpose. I think sometimes God catches us by surprise. At the
moments when we don't expect him (or anyone for that matter) to step in.
But he does. :)
Only he can break the darkness. When all hope is lost, you better believe
that hes not walkin' out now. Its just the beginning.
And when he catches you, he wont be catching the darkness of your past.
All that will fall away, except you, in his arms.
ain't that the most beautiful thing?
when fear grips our minds, but we can "trust fall" with Jesus,
and know for a fact, hes got you.
I always have to go back to that, because I always forget!
-sigh- but when he brings it back to mind, the very fabric of

life turns on its head! as every other time I recall this. :)
Amen to the power of Jesus!
:)

-mICH

BLOGGER:DD!

I haven't blogged in like..
FOREVER.
But now thats going to change. :)
hello everyone, I miss bloggger. :3
I've been with my cousins a lot, and its been
rough, but its all good. With God on my side,
and joy in my heart, nothing can stop me now!! X)

Love written on your arms..

God is going to use one person. just one. To pick you back up again. :)
whether it be a family member, best friend, neighbor, or a stranger that you don't know very well.
Hes trying to talk to you whether you know it or not.
Hes trying to get a hold of your heart. :)
and it just so happens he got a hold of mine.
His arms are written with LOVE amd COMPASSION!
God is an amazing God.. who won't take his eyes off you for
even a second, least you fall<3

-mICH

My cousins. :)

Cousins coming down again. :)
Please keep me in your prayers guys, to know what to say,
and to be reading Gods word daily. I'll need it more then ever.

Bridget. Pray for that to go well to!
much love!

"Theres Strong. And then theirs: ARMY STRONG."

This was that one week of your whole life, thats a once in a lifetime thing.
I was stretched to my limits.
Hit to the core.
And through it all, the only thing I could say, was Praise Jesus!
Praise God, for watching over me, and keeping me strong, even when I'm weak,
for in our weakness, he is made strong!
I am a soldier for Christ, and I fight to the death for what I love with all my heart,
and that is Jesus, Jesus, Jesus! :)
This week, I was chalanged to jump out of my ordinary life,
and live a life of adventure, and excitment! :)
which is exactly what God had done, and praise be his name for it!
We helped lead seven people to Christ this week, and what a blessing it has been
to be a part of that! I mean, how amazing?? ahh.. God is good.
Well, thats all for now, but I'll be reflecting this week, on my past week of
Unleashed more, so look into that. :)
oh, and I made a new bestfwend, and I love her to pieces. :)
In Christ,

My Life.

This is without a doubt, what my life looks like right now.

I know God is going to do something great this week.
My life will change as we know it.
alright Lord.. you lead, I follow.

"I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing"

Soldier:]

something cool I came up with. :)

I was born a warrior.
Choosen for a duty; for a purpose.
To carry out the kings kingdom,
and carry out a message across the nations.
I fight for the cause. Not to do what is
expected of me, but what is unexpected for the benifit others.
that is what I fight and live for.
just a soldier in training, nothing more. :)

lol, just an analogy. :)
is that what your life looks like?

What is your name?

Part two:



What is my name?.. Who am I?
My name is Michelle Alexis Quinto.

Michelle: "Who is the Lord?"
Alexis: "my Helper and Defender"
God.. is my helper and defender. The hand I reach out for, when no one else can. Hes the protecter, who holds me close saying, "Its going to be okay, I know the way home"
Now That. Is my name.

Who am I?
I have a path, and a unique calling. But I get sidetracked. I ask what about her? shes stronger. But what about him? Hes self-confident. But what about them? they do not fear.
But I'm asking all the wrong questions.
I am a helper, a defender, a fighter.. and a lover of Christ.
And that.. is the real truth. Its not about what I can't do, or what I'm incapable of accomplishing. But, what he had made me to do. What God made you, to do.
Who are you?
What.. is your name?
-mICH

Can't wait :)

Out of all things that excite me, I came strait here to my blog.
And yet I don't have anything profound to say. :P
WELL, I do have this poem I started on :)

I see a field where we once met.
the perfect place, it seemed the stage was set.
I remember the chills of the moment, the rush of love.
it was like one of those romance movies you walk out of.
Well hey, being young, love is what we aspire;
That one thing, that so many desire.
A wish that came to be, fell on us so perfectly.
So when we met, and love took us higher,
It was you, that became my only disire.
When we held hands in the rain together,
Love became the only weather.
I sprang up, and woke from that dream.
desprately trying to go back to sleep.
I didn't want to leave.. I really wanted to stay.
but it seems that dreams just work that way.
So now that I have seen you,
I can't wait to meet you.
For I believe that if what I've seen is true.
You can't wait to meet me too. <3

Phil 1:6:D

Super amazing nite. Wow.
I was so blessed by my amazing friends<3
I survived Jr. High! praise the Lord!
I just wanna thank God for all of this..
my friends,
my grades (halelujah!!!:D),
and my parents.. (who have been a HUGE impact on my life:D),
Thanks to everyone who supported me, and walked
this crazy road of life with me; encouraging me, crying with me,
Laughing with me, and everything in between:)
THANK YOU! :D
and to those who still have 1 or 2 years to go,
don't worry. Its not so bad. :)
I have a little advice for you though:

"[God is] a lamp unto your feet, and a light unto your path."
-Psalm 119:105

"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you."
-Deuteronomy 31:6

:) <3
"He Is Jealous for you.
Loves you like a hurricane.
Oh how he loves you so<3">-David Crowder Band

Noise

Noise.

"Be still (meaning, be silent).. For I AM God." -Psalm 46:10

Stand Up

When the lights go up and the game is on,
Are you ready for me? cause I'm ready for you.
When the bell rings out, and the fight is on.
Are you ready for me? cause I'm ready for you.
It's time for us to start throwing down;
Take a look, and see who's standing now

Didn't even know that you and I were crossed,
Until a sneak attack from the weak side.
Unaware that we were in a fight,
I guess that's part of the problem, but guess what?

Say what you want to say about me,
Throw up what you want to throw up at me,
But when you mess with those that are around me,
That's when you and I will have a problem.

I'm not afraid of loving my enemies.
Turning the other cheek.
Blessing those who curse me.
I honestly want peace with you.
But when you come against my country,
When you come against my family,
You try to destroy my people,
I can't just stand by.
There's no way that I can stand by;
This time I will not stand by;
I Will Stand Up.

When the bell rings out, this fight is on,
Are you ready for me? cause I'm ready for you!
It's time for us to start throwing down,
Look and see who's standing now.

Hi there! :)

Probably the one thing about me that I absolutely love,
is that I am so different from everyone.
At first it makes you feel alienated, but its not so bad..
Although whats not-so-great about it, is that
people won't understand the things you do and say,
and why you do and say them. The imparticular outlook
I'll have on one situation, someone else will think completely otherwise.
I guess it can have its good and bad, but regardless it is
what it is, and according to the Father, its the way things
are supposed to be.
haha! I know most of this was completely random, but it was just
on my mind, so I felt like sharing it:)
-Sigh- anways, well I'm going to hang out with my best friend today. :)
I'm reeaaally excited:)
"I'mma Be" postin' pix later(;

The one thing I do feel like talking

Wow, has the Lord completely turned my
life on its head this whole year.
Everythings different.
It amazes me sometimes you know?..
I mean.. look how far I've come.
I won't let my Heavenly Father down<3
I will keep fighting, and learning
till the finish<3 :)

Words Words Words!

They can be as gentle as a butterfly,
as calm as the wind.
But they can be as quick as a rattle snake,
and as painful as double bladed sword.
The tricky part, is choosing them carefully..
Unfortunately, we can sometimes under estimate
how powerful they can truely become.
They can tear friendships,
they can break families,
they can ruin relationships...
but.
they can also
heal frienships,
fix families,
and build relationships.

So it can go both ways. But how easy is it to use
it wrongly? how hard is it to use it the right way?
its hard to tell...

Whats really fantastic, is that sometimes you can do

something really amazing unto the Lord, and not even know,

because you did his work not with pride, but love and compassion.

But what sucks the most, is that sometimes you can

do it, and be completely unaware of the chaos you just
caused someone else..

Oh Lord, help us to understand the weight of our tongue, because
when we don't, it might just weigh someone down!

Proverbs 21:23
Whoever keeps his mouth and his tongue keeps himself out of trouble.

Ephesians 4:29
Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear

Proverbs 12:18
There is one whose rash words are like sword thrusts, but the tongue of the wise brings healing.

its a maybe, but I'm still praying about it.
I really wanna make a difference... and I believe this is how to do it. :)

The Monkey Bars(:

The following story really happened at the park one thursday afternoon. :)

There was this little kid who was trying out the monkey bars.
He was so egar and excited, he looked like he could do it.
but he couldn't do it..
So he called out to his daddy, and his dad held him up and said,
"wow son! look at you go! Your doing great!"
He was so proud of himself.. hehe.. he beamed :)
his dad was so proud of him too.. it was a precious father son moment.
But in reality, the kid couldn't do it without his dad.
Then another hopeful kid came over.
He was trying to do it.. but like the first one, he couldn't.
But his dad was there this time.
He said, "Son do you need a little help?"
he replied, "NO dad! I can do it! okay??"
So his dad just shrugged, and said, "Okay.. go ahead,
just let me know when you need me."
and stepped back.
The kid tried again and again, but he always fell.
He cried a lot..
But whenever his dad tried again and said,
"do you need help buddy?"
He faithfully said, "NO DAD! I got this!"
Finally, when he really couldn't do it, his dad stepped
in and asked,"do you need help now?"
and he replied,"yes daddy.. I need help."
I just sat there watching.. I wondered..
isn't this the way we live all the time?
our heavenly "daddy" says,"buddy do you need help?"
and almost automaticly we say,"no dad! I got this!"

So as you can see, from both pictures each one couldn't do it..
but each one had a -choice- for help.
So really, what we need, is to understand one thing:
that we can't do it alone. We needs our heavenly "daddy"
by our side in hard times.. because in the end, he carries us.
We just have to pray, that we will never take our focus off him,
and remember that hes always there to help you across the hard times.
Sometimes we need to see (especially myself),
that God can only change people.. we can't.
because in the long run. We wont be the ones helping
them across the monkey bars. <3

My Field Of Daisys(:

I found God a few days ago.
He was in my dream.

In it, I found myself walking in a meadow full of daisys,
and I look far out, and theres this man smiling at me
a few yards away.

It was him.
So I ran to him, and gave him a big hug(:
If you've ever felt more safe in your entire life,
where would it be?
Mine place was there.
As I hugged him, it felt like he was speaking to my heart
and told me he loved me. :D
I love it when he does that.
Gives me the goose bumps.. ^_^hehe..
anyways as I was there, I felt
so at home.. I didn't wanna wake up.
It was so awesome cuz we could just sit, and I would ask him,
why is this,
and why is that?
I felt like a 5 year old. :)
barely discovering the world..:)
It was the most amazing conversation ever(:
and so.. when we finished, I told him I had to go,
so I gave him one last hug, and reluctantly, ran back
to where I had first entered, and I opened my eyes.

And so... I felt ready to take on the world. <3

-mICH

Rejected. xD

Wow I can't believe I did it.
I feel great, but at the same time sad.
WELL, its all for the best.
Ugh.. ok even though it kinda sucks.
Alrighty well, see you in the morning:)


-mICH

Humility

I have been learning about humility this week.
And its really struck a cord on my heart.
Its Gods way of teaching me, to use less of the word
"I" in a sentence, and use more of "him" in a conversation.
Pride isn't always just being a jerk, and thinking your all that.
Its also when you need to learn to submit,
and where you draw the line.
Submit yourself to God, because you don't want him to do it for you (seriously). lol


Ummm.. what else has happened.
OH! I was sick last night. and I cried. Alot.
and since I had fever, my tears were really freakin hot too,
like, how weird is that?
anyways, I asked God to help me carry on, cuz this was just crazyy.
I prayed I'd hear How He Loves us on the radio..
because I just wanted to hear him tell me he loves me,
and hes gonna get me threw this.

and sure enough. A second later, that song played.
At that moment I felt this sort of dependence on God..
like I totally relyed on him to give me strength to carry on,
even though the fever was freakin cooking me like an oven. :P
and thats exactly what he did(:
it was like a total release in stress:)
and within a few minutes I feel asleep.
So God is good(:

Amen when he gets you out of
tough situations. ^_^
anyways gtg (: <3
Sunday Tomorrow!

Sore throat + Sniffles = Bleh

I need to go on a date..

Finished my song. But I'm not all in the mood to celebrate.
I am still pondering what God wants for me in my life.
What should I do?
I know what he whats me to do now.
But what about later?
What should I do then?
oh the questions of my life..
Wow, things arent going to get any easier will they?
Oh well, at least it keeps me busy.
Well.. off to read my bibla.
I have a date with God today(:

-mICH

New day. Lets do it.

I love my Jr. High girlies...
I am going to miss saying that.
"Jr. High"
that went by so fast.
I wish there was a way to step on the brakes.
I wanna take it in before its gone.
But it leaves before I can grab it. :/

Omg I love "Your Love Is My Drug" by Ke$ha ^_^
haha! B)
"What you got boy, is hard to find, I think about it all the time.
I am all strung out, my heart is fried, I just can't get you off my mind.
Because your love, your love, your love! is my drug!" C:
ahaha! soo catchy ^_^

So anyywayy.. Time for bed. Tomorrows a new day.
So lets do it. (:

God Got Us Perfectly :)

Do you remember me?

I Wish that you could see,
the inside of me..
Wishing you were here..
here to wipe my tears..
I really can't forget.

I hope that you can understand,
love always seems to have a plan,
and Love will make it happen, if we were meant to be;
This love was clearly meant, for you and me.
I'll never forget, I regret, it might be just a dream.
so hold my hand, and prove to me,
God got us perfectly..

haha! I really don't know, how or why I came up with this,
but I think its really pretty!
I wrote it a year ago. I don't know its inspiration, because I didn't like anyone this much then, but I think its adorable anyways(: <3

I don't believe it

My poor mommy. She just had mothers day on a sour note, all because of my arrogant grandfather. >:C
I'm sorry, but me be young and all, of course I'm going to stand up for my mother, because
someone who thinks he knows everything, JUST TICKS ME OFF. >:( gooodness..
Anyways, (somewhat) lovely mothers day.
I love the dress I got.. hehehe, so fab(:
I've never worn a waist belt before, so it was kinda strange, but I liked it(:
Pastor Bishop, was talking about the most amazing being that lives inside
of me, and the relationship we have(:
It was a pretty amazing sermon. (:
God is my daddy... and I love him.
<33

Ummmm...
OH! and Friday! totally forgot to mention.
I had coffee with Mrs. Lindquist that evening (:
It was quite lovely.
I pretty much gave a testimony of my entire year.
My gosh have I been threw tons. Goodness.
Its been amazing though, and like I told her "I wouldn't
trade it for anything" :)
I learned sooooo much. About myself, about others, and most importantly,
about God! Wow!
I had a wonderful time talking with her, and I hope
to be able to talk to her more this year(:
.....Hey guess what.
I'm 14.

I'm so far away.. from the only place, I know I should be...
So Find Me,
And Take Me.
Come like the day, come chase away this darkness;
cause I've been living here so long,
And I Give Up.
Come wash away everything I've buit between us,
and I will sing unending songs of your love.

I cannot find rest.
I can't catch my breath.. from running away, so stop me.
and take me,

come like the day, come chase away this darkness;
I've been living here so long,
And I Give Up.
Come wash away everything I've buit between us,
and I will sing unending songs of
your love! its stolen my heart. Your love! has set me apart.
Your Love! is life in my veins,
and all my mistakes fad away..
so find me, and stop me, and take me, and save me!

Yep. You guessed it.

meaning-behind-it way, I am in no rush. like, i don't care, but whatever(:
Umm.. HAD AN AMAZING TIME AT RACHELS CHURCH!!!
but what was kinda funny, was that i was sitting down for soooo

Don't ever be afraid:)

I was just looking threw all my old posts today. I came across this old one. And I wanted to share it because mannn.. this spoke wonders to me! We shouldn't be afraid! gahh! but my my... how we always are. This when I came back from big bear :) hope this post touches you, just like it did me! <3

Don't Be Afraid:

"I'm home. seems the world is different around me. Everything just.. doesn't feel right. I don't know why.. Anyways, I was surprised to know how much Big bear is in poverty. I was sitting on a bench just out side of a store we were in, and I saw I girl walk by me, and she looked so sad. She was listening to her headphones, and walked towards a beat up car, to a man (her dad I assume). Across from me, were some lady's around mid 40's or so, and they were cursing, and talking about political matters. I wanted to go to them, and tell them Jesus loves them, but .. I couldn't find a way to. I was afraid. It ate me inside, to know, that these people can die, and suffer Hell, because I was Afraid to tell them the truth. It was so convicting, and I pray, I never make that mistake again.

We live in such a broken world, and we don't realize how broken it really is. :/ ughhh.. it breaks my heart! :( I prayed for those people that night. I hoped God would reach them some way..
Do you know anyone like that?
Pray for them,
they might need you, and you can help.
Don't be Afraid."

Positions Of Danger

Scariest thing when your in the position of danger. On the one place
you shouldn't be.. Your there. And theres pretty much nothing you can
do about it. BUT THAT REMINDS ME:

wasn't Steven in a place of danger??? wasn't he about to be stoned,
and pretty much killed. Oh yes, and there was nothing he could do about it.
So what did you do?


He cried out,"Lord I surrender my spirit to you!" "Forgive these people, because
they do not know what they are doing!"
He didn't give in to the "oh woe is me."
he didn't think about his little bubble. His little world.
He saw Gods world.
His magnificant picture.
Not our tiny crappy insignificant situation.
The coolest part is, is that God was with him, and helped him threw out
all of that. Even though he might have not known it. He was.
You know, if we all look a little deeper in what Andrew said this morning..
We would learn some pretty magnificat things..
Probably stuff that we went threw today.
How'd Andrews teaching affect you?
Lemme know,
-mICH

Dreaming...(:

I Love It When You:
Hold My Hand,
Hold Me Close,
Pick Me Up,
and then look lovingly into my eyes<3

haha! now that is something
I have to be careful for,
because dreams aren't real.
They erase the reality of things.

Once In A Lifetime (:

"Love: We call it, 'Once in a lifetime'" <3

This is my 100th post, so in honor of that.
Lemme introduce myself:

My name is Michelle Quinto.
I love Navy Blue, and I love black nail polish.
I hate wearing Pink (unless with black), and
I hate it when people turn their backs on others.
I am kind of a random person. Haha! it can sometimes
be hard to keep up with me.
I love the Rain. It reminds me of Jesus, in so many ways.
But most of all.
I love Jesus Christ. With all my mind, heart, and soul.
I don't want people to think that I'm a good person
for loving Him to death. Because regardless, I am a
big screw up like everyone else. I guess the catch is:
I have someone to help me fix it. Or change something.

I try to avoid confrontations, but if I can't get around it,
I just get threw it.
My friends are my family. I can't live without them.
My family, is my consience.
You can't stand it sometimes, But your lost without it.
(Another words: our bond is stronger then friendship C:)
Guys are stupid. Always will be (for now).
I won't give them an ounce of my heart, if they don't give
an ounce for God in their hearts.
Simple as that.
If you don't love him with all your heart, or even want to at
the very least, believe me I won't waste my time, or yours.

I am passionate about what I do, and I love how God has been
moving me to live.
Be there for others,
pick up the ones who can't pick up themselves,
love one another,
fight for what is right,
and ultimately give God the glory with every aspect in my life.
Sure like I said, I don't always meet these standards.
I screw up, but I am so happy that God has put these desires
to perserver for those goals! :)

I am not afraid to say hi to someone new:)
Meeting new people is exciting for me(:
I love people, I love talking to them,
and helping them, and I really don't care if
your not as pretty, skinny, or popular. Being who
God made you to be.. wow, you couldn't be more beautiful :]

I guess thats all for now,
so I must take a bow ^_^
living for God, is all that matters now:)
I would love to hear more about you!
what do you love to do?
Lemme know,
MuchLove,
- mICH


---Switchfoot- Needle In A Haystack Life---

Bikes&&Birthdays:)

"Thinking is something I do best.
and one thing I'm thinking about, Is you."

I <3 that:)
Lovely day today. It reminds me of
how beautiful the creation the Lord made is. :)
Oh and how pretty Easter was! :)
( as far as the weather and whatnot (; )
it was such a fun day, I loved it.
Oh, and my grandpa got me a new bike!
Oh my gooodness its beautiful! and it rides
great!! :)
its baby blue, and a mountian bike C:
I'm gonna be going for bike rides all right (;

Oh, and its Jennalees bday today^_^
hehehe, I am so blessed to have her in my life<3
She is so full of joy, even in times I know she
struggles, she is just simply inspiring to me<3
When your going threw a hard time, and you turn to her,
she turns you around, and points you to God:)
She loves to help people, and inspire them to be more like
Christ, and that is just a beautiful gift God has given her<3
She is passionate, joyful, a leader, and (just for you) emotional (;
"You will know they belong to me, if they bear good fruit" :)
and Jennalee has a basket of fruit<3
Love you to death my sweet sister. Hope your
having a great day(:

ttyl ppl,
-mICH

l'obscurité annulée!

I am seriously loving what God has been doing in my life right now<3
Losing things that weigh me down<3
its incredible:)
I love my friends,
I love my family,
I love those particularly
special in my life:)
hehehe<3
Ahhh, but more importantly I LOVE GOD:]
I was really freaked out today though...
A feeling I haven't felt in a long time.
So it caught me off guard.. :(
Ohh my goodness.. I really gotta distance myself..
ughhh..
anyways, I watched the passion todayy...
Cried like hell.
At least it wasn't as bad when I first watched it.
I litrately bawled so hard, my parents had to stop
it and ask, "are you sure you wanna keep watching this?"
Hey, I was ten.
xD ahhhh... good times.
Anyways... I really hate that movie. It always breaks my heart. :(
but tomorrow HE RISES AGAIN! :]
AMEN!

love you guys, and see you tomorrow,
-mICH

p.s The Title is in French :)
it means "Darkness Undone" on the cross!!! <3

Life is pointless without God in it:)

Ummmm... its 2:14... in the morning.

I am trying to stay up. lol its kinda hard.

(No don't ask why :P)

Well.. todays my birthday.

14 years old..

Givin God the glory for another year of life!

I get so much insperation from my sweet friend Jennalee,

and I thought I'd just post some of my fav photography pix I found:)<3

Keepin it real!

-mICH

P.S I just thought of something incredible right now.

"Satan, you may have won the battle, but you haven't won the war!"

I will fight to the death, and grow stronger and stronger in Jesus,

then you could ever withstand!

Watch me, and I'll be everything that you are so desprately trying

to prevent!

.....just sayin.

xD

ok, the whole point of that, is that even though I have seriously been screwing up lately, and have been knocked down constantly, I will not back down. I'll be standing at the frontline of the battle, waiting for another shot. Satan thinks he can just drag you into guilt and shame, but not this time! this time we stand. Side by side with God, cause you know he'll have your back. When you fall, you know theres someone there to catch you!
can I get an amen? :)
