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.
I really encourage you to listen to his sermons at night.
Hes having one every night about the topic of heaven, and
it is the most beautiful and encouraging words I've ever heard.
Ever wondered about the mysteries of Heaven?
not know much about it perhaps?
This is seriously something you don't want to miss. :)
go to http://www.gty.org/Resources/Sermons/90-15

their free, and they have a read along.
Also, you can listen to it on the radio at kkla 99.5fm.
Hope it blesses you, just as it blessed me!

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

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!
:)

God is going to use one person. just one. To pick you back up again. :)

even a second, least you fall<3
