A little bit of everything.

Hey everyone :)

(this blog is going to kind of be about everything right now.. :P)

I know, it's been so long since I posted something new and fresh! And I'm sorry! So, let me catch you up on a few things, in the past month (?) or so, a lot has happened. On September 24th, my good friend passed away, which was really hard for me, for everyone, really. But I know that he's up There and I know he's going to be waiting for me There when it's my time. I miss him a lot, of course, he was an awesome kid. He was someone everyone could go to about their problems.

But since then, God has blessed me with such amazing people, the best a person could ask for. Today, I had a spare so I went to the library and met up with my friend. We got into talking about Heaven and death (still kind of hard to talk about) and we were wondering if Hitler was in Heaven, which is quite possible, he could have repented and chosen to live his eternal life for Christ. And, I mean, we are no one to judge on who went to Heaven and who went to hell, but one day I guess we'll find out! Then I got to thinking, later on in the day, that I want to spread the love of God so badly throughout my shcool, my community, my province! Because on that final judgement day, what are we all going to have to say for ourselves? We are going to stand before our Almight Creator and be judged. It can be a scary thought. But I am kind of excited for the day our Savior comes back to take us to Heaven (if I'm not already there when He does).

There's a song that says:
"There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more fears. There will be a day when the burdens of this place, will be no more, we'll see Jesus face to face but until that day, we'll hold onto You always."

And there WILL be a day that these earthly things we grasp onto will mean nothing next to our God and Heaven. These earthly things are nothing compared to what God has waiting for us. We rely on these earthly things, thinking they define us, that they are our identity. Jesus is our identity, Jesus lives through US! Through you, through me.

My friend recently put her status as "I may be a fool, but I'm a fool for Christ and I'll take that any day." which is so true! Call me a fool, I don't care because I am a Jesus freak and proud of it. It's just the point of realizing that our citizenship is in fact held in Heaven, not on earth! So we should not be fixated on earthly things, because this is all temporary, my friends. :)


Later on, we started talking about Martin Luther, because I started to recite his speech :P And it's amazing, isn't it? One man who had a dream for something, something that he so strongly believed in! I have a dream too, a dream that our generation and future generations to come will come to know God on a personal and intimate level. What a day this would be, that would bring joy to people's hearts to see so many reaching out to Christ. What joy it would bring to Christ, to see so many people reaching out to Him.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, we are the generation! Join the revolution. :)

Matthew 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach and to say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."

Realizations

So you say you don't need God anymore,
Well lemme tell you something before you slam that door.

Don't you remember the days,
Where you'd stand there and Praise?

You say you've seen other side,
And by what laws do you now abide?

You do what you want, and what you please,
But don't get you get that that will cease?

It only lasts a little while,
Until on your face there is no smile.

The cheap thrills don't stick around,
Soon enough you'll be the on the ground

Beggin' God for His grace,
When all along He's kept up with you,
Pace to pace.

He never left, and never will,
You just gotta realize that these habits you gotta kill.

Get on that path walking with our Saviour
'Cause He doesn't appreciate your behavior.

He'll welcome you with open arms,
Then you'll be out of all your harms.

Don't you see,
You're living out of reality.

He'll forgive you,
Because He loves you.

You're His precious child,
The life you been living is much too wild.

He loves you the same,
Just gotta shout out His glorious Name.

He misses you, and He wants you back,
So get yourself back on the right track.

Commitment and Sacrifice.

Being a Christian involves a lot of commitment and sacrifice. Accepting Jesus into your heart is one of the biggest commitments you could possibly make, as I've stated before, but with that is sacrifice and greater commitment attached. Not the bad kind of attached, where you have to lug it around with you, but the sort that is always on your mind. Like, every Tuesday my wonderful friends, fellow peers, and a teacher gives up their lunch break so we can all come together in prayer. Now, we all know how crazy highschool is and to be able to give up an hour of socializing or doing homework so we can come together in the presence of God, now that is both sacrifice and commitment. When you're in highschool sometimes you may feel alone but you know you're not alone. Not only do you have God but everyone else is most likely feeling the same way you do.

Christians make sacrifices a lot and there are a lot of different kinds of sacrifice these days. Whether it be your social status, because people don't like your strong passion for Jesus Christ (Witnessing Opps! ;) ). Whether it be some TV time, because you have a little Bible study, or an hour lost of sleep so you can start your day off by being filled with the love of God from reading your Bible, or whether it be giving up a lunch for Prayer Group. But sometimes what we don't see is that these losses are ACTUALLY gains in disguise. By reading your Bible for even an hour extra a day, you get filled with the knowledge coming from the Bible as well as being built up so when you go through your day, it's like you have a shield over you, not letting anyone or anything get you down. Also, by losing out on friends who weren't really your friends you could either tell them about the Love of God, witnessing to them, or find friends who also have that passion for Jesus. But really, the first option I would think is a way better choice.

And honestly, being able to pray at school is great! During lunch you go into this classroom upset or hurt, and you come out of it just feeling good and better about yourself because you've just spent the past hour building yourself up, therefore you can go into your last blocks of the day just feeling great and loving everyone around you, as God does.

Now, Commitment. Like I said, accepting Jesus as your Lord and Saviour is the number one commitment. But there is also a lot of commitment that follows after it. Like, committing to reading your Bible every morning, or committing to going to Prayer group, just committing to Jesus. He died for US you guys, and the way people openly bash Him in public these days is both disgraceful and disheartening. It's disrespectful and it isn't right. He was so selfless as to bare the sins of the entire human race upon Himself and this is how people treat Him? Commitment is a big thing, even as a Christian it's hard to commit sometimes. I remember this one time, it was during just after summer when for the entire two months almost, I had been sleeping in until 10 or so. But for some reason I was woken up earlier, say... 6am or so. And I believe it was God waking me up and telling me "Kat, read your Bible." And I didn't. I feel bad now, but what's done is done and God has forgiven me.

But as the hour passed and I woke up at my regular school day time, and went on through the day I thought, 'What could I have learned and applied to my day? What could I have read that would have changed the course of my day?' And that's something I'm not going to risk losing anymore. When I feel the urge to read my Bible I will. The Bible is somewhat like a complex and colorful painting. You look at it once and you see something cool, and when you come back to it, every single time you see something new and exciting. Which is like the Bible, some of the scriptures have different meanings for different people but every time you go to a scripture, whether it be the same one or a new one, it's like God's telling you something every time you read it.

So, as a Christian I am encouraging you all as well as myself that everyday I will stay committed to the things I said I would do, whether it have to do with God, or daily things. And make sacrifices! It's okay to make sacrifices for God, I'm sure that's what He wants, to know that He is our top priority, because let me tell you, He's number one on my list.

God sacrificed his One and Only Son so that we might be saved and living our life all for Him. So ask yourself this;
What are you sacrificing for our God and what are you committing to?

A Little Late Night Inspiration.

Hey everyone, here's a little rap/poem/tobyMac inspiration that I wrote last night.
Enjoy! :)


Dear God,

I see all these lost faces,
They livin' life at their own paces,

Don't they see You're all they need?

They don't know where to go,
They don't know how to just say no,

God,
They need You now,
before they take their final bow.

They'll see You were there all along
waitin' for them to hear Your song.

So let's get them to see our Saviour,
So they change their behaviour,

God You're so sublime,
but they're just killing time.

They don't hear that beautiful voice,
They think there ain't no other choice,

Than to live like they are,
But they need to know that You're not far.

'Cause God, they're just looking for someone,
And You're that someone

Who can help them get on track,
They'll take it all back

Sayin' "God please for give me,
Because now I see that You're all I need,
I'm hearing Your song,
I'm sorry it took so long."

Then they find the right way,
Livin' for You night and day.

Preaching the Word,
They makin' their voice heard.

Old, Little, Young,
God Your song shall be sung.

Prepare Yourself.

So, we had our first prayer meeting today, in Mr. Beigel's room, it was awesome! We sat in a big circle and just prayed. Mr. Biegel is awesome :) It was definately a lunch well-spent. We prayed for various things, but mostly for the light to shine through us at Sardis and light up someone else's darkness with the love of God, which is what my plans have been all along. I prayed for all of Sardis to just feel the love of God, His presence, and I just want them all to know, students and teachers, that there is a different way. That there is mercy and forgiveness and Someone is always there for them when they feel alone and sad. This is the end! Let me tell you! I know everyone at prayer group is just as excited as I am! We are going to go out into Sardis Secondary and just share the Good News, God's mercy, His grace. We aren't going to be afraid or nervous to talk to anyone when God's saying "Hey, go talk to them. Tell them about Jesus." That we won't doubt ourselves or say "You know, God, they're just going to shun us.." Because honestly, if they do, at least you were doing what God wanted you to do, He'll do the rest.

That one person you talk to, that's one life you could save.. One life you could introduce to Jesus, and pray for them and pray for them. Right now, I'm praying for all of Sardis' kids to just open their eyes and HEARTS to God and just know that He is always there, and He promises eternal happiness. Life may not be so awesome right now, but know that with God, things are going to start a heck of a lot better because God will help you through it all; all the pain, all the hurt, all the dissapointment, He makes up for that! With His love, I know I just feel alive!

Psalms 9:9 "The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed, A refuge in times of trouble."

And there's no reason no one else at Sardis shouldn't feel that too! Could you just fathom, being in a school with kid's who's hearts were just BURNING for Jesus? CAN YOU IMAGINE?

We could do so much!!!! I know that Sardis Prayer Group is a great thing and I know that every member of it is going to go out and just be the light, because that's what God wants us to do! I can't wait until the day that everyone has heard of Him, felt His love, His mercy, I'm pumped!! We can change the world, and I fully plan on doing just that! And it starts with a group like we have at Sardis. When He returns, I know He's going to tell everyone who stood up for Him and His Word "Good job, my good and faithful servant." This is going to be the epitome of epic success for Jesus Christ.

Heaven is a specially prepared Place for specially prepared people.
Prepare yourself.

He, Him, God, ... Jesus Culture!

The other day as well as today I was reading some people's statuses as well as various posts on other sites, and I noticed, that when they were referring to God, they didn't use capitals, and some don't even capitilize His Name. (ex. they wrote he, instead of He. etc.) Now, I don't extremely frustrated or mad at the people who do this, I just think that the Creator of all things, the Man who can work miracles, deserves the honour of capital letters, don't you? He is almighty and powerful, my God is a big God, and he deserves the praise we give Him, no? I just think it shows Him more of a respect. When capitlizing (Him, He, etc) in a sentence, it just makes it more... Holy? I don't know. Powerful, maybe? Ex: "our god is so good, isn't he?" or "our God is so good, isn't He?" To me, I just think it shows respect and of His worthiness to us believers. Maybe it's just me, but I thought I would post my opinion. Maybe it didn't make sense, I don't know, but to me, capitilizing His Name is the proper way to do it.

On another note, if you haven't heard of or listened to any songs by Jesus Culture, I really think you should do so! It's a band of people; Chris Quilala, Melissa How, and my favourite, Kim Walker. Their songs are so full of truth, it's amazing. My favourite song by Kim Walker is "Sing My Love". I reaaallllly think you all should listen to it, it's just.. amazing.. Oh, and if you're downloading them from iTunes or Limewire or wherever, I prefer the live versions because sometimes they add good messages in between the songs. So yeah, go listen to them! :)

Praise God.

Wow, God is so good! Tonight at the soccer party I really bonded with three of my 'teammates'. You guys know who you are :) And I am just so thankful to have them, to connect with them on a deeper level. Praise God! I'm so blessed to have met them and connected with them like this. I feel so close to them for only knowing them for about.. 2 (?) weeks. You guys are awesome and I looked forward to Bible Study Tuesday's! It's gonna be good. I can really see God's plans being set in motion now. Even though it's just the 4 of us, we can seriosuly change some lives and I can see it happening! An unstoppable group. You're not going to be able to ignore the Presence of God storming through SSS, so be ready to encounter God!

Also, after starting Prayer Group/Bible study at school, I've decided I'm going to start taking prayer requests on here! You can message me, facebook me (if you have me on your page), whatever, I'm happy to pray for you. So whenever you need it, please don't hesitate!


Love you all soo much,
Torch.


p.s. Emily, if you're reading this, special shout out to you. I love you so much, and am thankful to have met you. You're amazing. xo.

Highschool.

Wow, so High school has been... Okay, so far. On the first day of classes I spent close to 15 minutes trying to find a clasroom that didn't even exist! Typical, though. It's been good regardless. I've already met some cool people. While I was in Planning this morning, we were doing a poll on Values and the top four were Freedom, Friendship, Family, and Success. I was the only one who voted for Religion. Well, really. GOD can give us all that. Package deal. Later on, when we were drawing pictures of our values, I looked over and saw THREE people writing Jesus and drawing a cross on their paper. Why they didn't raise their hand when asked if Religion was important to them, I don't know. On a good friend of mine's status, she had a quote by Alex Harris and part of it said " Our world cannot last another generation of Christian young people who fit in." Which I think is SO true!! So, I was curious as to why they didn't put up their hand; not that I'm judging them for it, because I'm not. Also, I'm not saying they aren't a true Christian, I was just wondering WHY. Because they're afraid they won't fit in? Because they don't want to be labeled a Jesus Freak? Well, I think that's the best label that can be given.

If we want people to hear the Word of God, we gotta do something! If we want people to feel the way we feel when we hear His voice, WE have to speak up. Like, it's time to wake up people. No one's going to hear if we don't tell them. Honestly, a lot of 'youth' or 'adolescent' people are so inspiring! We aren't doing this for ourselves, we're doing it for our Savior; Jesus Christ because to me, that's the LEAST I could do for Him after what He did for me, for all of you! But don't force it on them, it's not us who is going to save them, it's Jesus. He's the only one who can truly capture their hearts and transform them into what they were put on this earth to be. My Aunty Jenn told me, when I was struggling with someone who was so set on not believing that "You've done all you can, now let Jesus do the rest." This also applies to SO many other things!! If you ask God for something, say, a job promotion, He's not just going to give it to you like that, you've gotta work for it. Just like YOU can't save someone, only Jesus can, and just like YOU have to work for something you want even after praying about it.

Of course, we can lay all of our problems on God, because He can totally help us, but what I'm trying to say is you can't just pass all of your needs and desires to Him and say 'here ya go, hook me up!' You've gotta put some effort into it. And of course, have FAITH in Him and everything else!! Faith is so important. SO important.

2 Peter 1:3-9 - "His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and goodness. Through these He has given us His very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But if anyone does not have them, he is nearsighted and blind, and has forgotten that he has been cleansed from his past sins."


Ponder that thought! He has everything we need! EVERYTHING. Love, compassion, friendship, mercy, grace, forgivness, discipline, successfulness, and the list goes on; but I think you get my point. Without God, we are nothing.


Love you all,
Torch.

A Little Side-Note and Thought

Hey everyone!



So, when I started this blogging site I made a promise to myself that I would post a new blogpost everyday. But then I got to thinking... This blog isn't for me, it's for everyone else out there. I may have one follower, I may have thousands. I may not even help save someone, but God is writing this through me, and He's not going to have something for me every single day. Like the Twitter thing, He may not tweet me every day, and sometimes He might just 'send' me a DM (direct message) that I need to hear.



I guess, I'm just saying that I won't be posting everyday, plus school, piano, and soccer will keep me pretty busy too. But when I do post, I'm sure it'll be good because 99% of it is coming from Him for you to read.



I also wanted to share this picture with you all, it's one of my favourites.
There's just something about it. Jesus is so happy to see her, and then you look at her expression. She looks relieved, happy too, but relieved. I look at this picture if I'm having a rough day or need a little encouragement. To me this picture just says "Reward". The girl, perhaps had a hard life, but when she got to hug Jesus when it was her time, it's just... It's kind of hard to explain, but I can tell you, I greatly look forward to the day I get to hug my Saviour, and just thank Him and praise Him for the goodness He brought me in life. So yeah, maybe that made no sense to you or maybe it made all the sense in the world, but all I know is that you live for Him, and you get awarded a beautiful life of eternity with Him and our Maker. But don't get me wrong, it's not just when you're dead that you get rewarded or blessed from Him. He brings you blessings all throughout your life, whether you notice them or not. Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers!

Numbers 6:24-26 "The LORD blesses you and keeps you; the LORD makes His face shine upon you and is gracious to you; the LORD turns His face toward you and gives you peace."

Goodnight everyone!

OMG(oodness)

So, just chillin' with the fam and stuff when I realized how many times I'd used the Lord's name in vain these past couple of days... You know what? I don't like it, I hate it, actually. I feel bad, 'cause I hate saying Oh My God, it's rude... I don't like it when other people say it but I especially don't like it when I say it. So I'm gonna stop! Easy solution, right? Well, this also brought to my attention to the couple of things I have done in the past couple weeks that weren't very Christian-like, stuff that I don't usually do/say. I'm not happy about it, lemme tell you, but I asked for forgiveness so it's all good. It's been about three weeks since the epic 24:6 ended, it was epic, no? Yesh, it was. But that's not what I'm writing on here to talk about.

What I'm saying to all you 24:6ers and all you believers, be strong, stay true to your faith. I think I may have mentioned this in another note, but ever since the conferance ended, I hear that little voice in my head 'Katlen, you know you shouldn't be doing that..' or 'Katlen, that's not right..' and yeah, I realized then what I'm doing is bad and should stop, and I do. I know all of you 24:6ers are so STOKED about changing people's lives and doing stuff for Jesus, I was actually just talking about it to someone very special :) I remember, also after the conferance ended people were still excited, not saying they arent now.. But I see the 24:6 'afterglow' kind of fading a bit, even on myself, so, I'm just really gonna work on staying strong in my faith.

Also, I'm not gonna let that fire burn out, you guys, don't let that fire burn out!! I see it burning SO SO SO bright in all of you and I would not like to see it die out, at all. I'll be praying for you all to be strong and walk in faith and strength and not be tempted by Earthly things. My rad aunt and I were talking about how our citizenship is in Heaven, not on Earth so why do we get so tempted and sucked in to earthly things? Like, saying you're sick, an example she provided, well not in Heaven my friends! We're so much more than society has to offer, especially these days.

I guess the point of this note was just to tell all you believer to rise above, stay strong, and that I'll be praying for you all, and anyone who needs it.

He is real.

So, today I was on Google searching for a location of a store so I put in 'is there a Wet Seal anywhere in Canada?' But you know how it has most searched results for what you've put in so far? Well for 'is there' the first, number one most searched thing with 73.6 million results is "Is there a God?"

Is there a God.

Thousands upon thousands of people have searched that, maybe even millions! That's a lot especially if there over 70 million results! It's also, in a way, very disheartening. People should be going to a church or reading a book (the Bible specifically) or praying, to see for themselves that there IS a God, the Alpha and Omega. The One who sent His son to DIE for us.The One who created the universe and all things on it. The One who through Him, His son made the lame walk, the deaf hear, the dead to rise from the dead, and so many other miracles. Instead, these people are waiting for someone to post an answer on Yahoo Questions! or on some other kind of question-answer site.

So you guys, if you're reading this and you don't know that you believe in Him, maybe you've seen or heard of some kind of miracle and think 'Okay, so there must be a God for that to happen' but don't really do anything after that, or maybe you're the girl in Blockbuster who asked if 'Passion of The Christ' was a true story, it doesn't matter because then you'll always have a little bit of curiosity in the back of your mind going 'why isn't He doing anything in my life?' Go to church or read a Bible or pray, accept Jesus into your heart. Experience the love of God and you will KNOW that there is a God. You will know that He is real more than ever because you will see for yourself that Jesus lives! Then, you will be more certain about that than anything! God wants everyone to have more than just a knowing of Him and His Kingdom, more than an awareness of His existence. He wants everyone to encounter a very personal relationship with Him.

In 1 Timothy 2 it says that God our Savior wants EVERYONE to be saved and come unto a knowledge of truth for there is one God and one mediator between God and everyone - the man Jesus Christ who gave himself as a ransom for all of everyone - EVERYONE - to ever live on this Earth!!And don't wait until you're older to say "Well, I should start going to church now." No one is ever too young for God!!1 Timothy 1:17 says "Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever." Amen?! AMEN! God also says He wants people everywhere to lift up holy hands in prayer without anger and disputing. So go ahead, getcha worship on! Remember; you don't have to be at church to worship God. If you don't have a car or can't get a ride to church, don't worry! You can just put on some 106.5 or some praise and worship music and have at'ter!

I hope that you guys encounter God and if you do or have already I look forward to hearing some of the stuff God is doing in your life!

Little side-note: When someone asked me if He was real I said "Yeah, duh! You know that place called Israel? It means He 'Is real' they just didn't know how to spell! Good one, eh? ;)

Patience.

So, I've been thinking a lot lately about going to public school and God's plans for me there, etc. At church you heard me say I could barely contain my excitement and I just wanted school to be back in already!! But, then I got to thinking and realized I have to be patient. I can't just walk into the school and just expect things to happen, which is what my mind was set on before. Patience, patience is key!

Psalms 37:7-9 "Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret—it leads only to evil. For evil men will be cut off, but those who hope in the LORD will inherit the land."

So, I'm not going to get upset when I see something I don't like or think God should have told me to fix or whatever. I won't just go into the school and start preachin' (as much as I'd love to!), I'm gonna wait for Him to tell me to go and do something, because without God, I am nothing! I need Him and He needs me to listen to Him. So I shall!Well, that's all for now :)Just remember, patience IS in fact a virtue!

Hey everyone! Thanks for checking out my blog! I'm pretty new at this, but I spend waaaaay too much time on Facebook (along with half the world ;P ) and decided that having a blogging site to express my love for the Lord would be better than doing it on Facebook (though I may still for a while.. until the site picks up) because Facebook really sucks you in. You see pictures of your friends vacation, or a family event or you start looking at someone's profile, etc etc. It just becomes crazy! Do you really need to check all of your friend's statuses and look at their 200 new pictures (thanks Facebook for expanding the maximum pictures in an album...) ? But anyways, I'm not here to talk about Facebook! I'm here for all of you long-time, short-time, and new believers! I just thought this would be a cool way to connect with other believers.

If you're looking at this and you're thinkin' "What is this girl talking about?" I want to help you understand! If you haven't accepted Jesus into your heart and you're feeling that you should or you want to, I would so so so LOVE to help you! It's quite simple, you say a prayer and it's done. But it's much more than that, my friends! You bless and get blessed in return. It's the biggest commitment you will ever make, but it's SO rewarding!

So, if you wanna know more about God, message me or reply to this or whatever! I'll be putting up some already written blogs for you to read.
I love you all! I'll sign my posts 'Torch' because that's my nickname. My parents didn't name me Torch :) So, thanks for reading!

following Him.

So, as a lot of you know, I am a strong believer in the Lord Jesus Christ. My life is all His and I will follow Him all day! Following Him isn't like Twitter, where you just click 'follow' and that's that. You get a few updates, or tweets, from Him once and a while, look at His page now and then. Following Jesus is a major commitment in your life, and the biggest decision to make, if you choose to follow Him your life will be changed forever. You'll hear Him tweeting to you all the time!!! You'll start hearing His beautiful voice, you'll start wanting to praise Him all the time and just want to please Him and make Him proud; I know I do! You'll want to just talk to Him and pray and just be with Him. But it isn't always good. You have to be strong while following Him, and your strength will come from Him, whenever you need it. Just build yourself up in His presence and pray, pray, PRAY! The reason you have to have strength is because the enemy will try and get you where your weak, whether it be through peer pressure, or doing something you know isn't right. The enemy thrives and that kind of stuff, but when you're walking with Jesus, you'll be the one making the enemy uncomfortable. We have to fight for our Savior, especially in today's society. People are cruel and judgemental. Well, I think that today's society needs to CHANGE! And what better way to change than accepting Jesus into their hearts and giving their life over to Him? I want people to SEE the miracles He works. The forgiveness and mercy He has!!! YOU GUYS!! Come on! Wake up! We're like an army! This is the war, we are the soldiers; Join the fight! The reason I get so excited about this is because I want EVERYONE and I mean EVERYONE to know of His goodness and grace!!! He loves you to no end! If you do something bad, you ask for forgiveness and it's gone! He forgets it! Do you even know how AWESOME that is?! He just leaves it, like nothing happened, and keeps moving on as long as you do. He makes everything work together for your good. Ask and you shall receive. He is your provider!



--Jesus spoke again, "I am the light of the world, those that follow me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life."-- if you're in the darkness, you don't have to be! He WILL give you the light of life so you can be a light unto all those who are still in the darkness!



Today's society is involved a lot with gossip and back stabbing. He is someone you can trust for ETERNITY. He'll NEVER tell your secrets and He'll ALWAYS help you! What ever the situation He is RIGHT there with you, holding your hand and telling you "Everything will work out. Don't be afraid or sad or mad or frustrated." When you call on Jesus, all things are possible. Those who have ears let them hear (!!!!!!) the voice of God directing them, putting them on the right path. Don't ever be upset with God, because it really is true; He does everything for a specific reason. He has put YOU on this earth for a specific reason! Whether it has to do with healing, preaching, whatever. He has put you here on purpose. There are NO accidents with God, everything will work out, He gives you His word!All you gotta do is want to follow Him, accept Him into your heart and hand over your life to Him! Now don't get the wrong idea about this, He doesn't just make you do stuff and that's your life. You still get to have fun, it's not all about rules and stuff. Though I suggest you read the "Ten Commandments" they changed a lot of my ways. He loves you guys, all of you. No matter WHAT. You just gotta see it, accept it and EMBRACE IT!!! It will change you in the BEST way possible!



All you who are going through a rough time in your life, just talk to Him, He will help you! --Matthew 11:28 "Come unto me, all those that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."-- You guys, it's so simple. --And then Jesus spoke. "Come, follow me."-- So SIMPLE! He just wants you to be with Him, following Him, so He can set his plans more in motion for you!



He is there you guys, and He is waiting for you to see Him, to hear Him, to praise Him and accept Him into your heart! --John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father, but by me."---We won't relent until He has it all. Our heart is His! We are His bondservants. We do whatever He says. You guys, I wanna see more and more people getting saved, I wanna see this set in motion NOW not later, when I'm older and wiser because with God I and you (!) can do ANYTHING. And I won't stop until I have fully fulfilled His desires for me; what He wants me to do. And just because I'm young it DOESN'T mean I can't save people, or preach the Word, or tell everyone the Good News. It's a spiritual war guys, and WE ARE WINNING.
