Love is on the Move


To feel loved and to know that you are loved is everyone's heart desire. Weather you come from the most best family life or the most broken family life it is and always will be the true desire of our hearts. Last night we had youth group but it was a special night called night of fire. Last night it couldn't have ever come any better the voice of God Agape Love which is the love of God for us. We were singing oh how he loves us last night and it struck me OUR GOD LOVES US for crying out loud. He has a love that flows beyond any love we will ever find on this earth. He loves us like we are we don't have to do anything special to earn his love. We don't have to prepare the great biggest speech before him for we can come to him just as we are! Ya know lately I have been thinking alot. We are like stained glass we might be broken but it is the brokenness that makes us beautiful and when Jesus is in control the brokenness turns to beauty and we are stained because it is the crimson blood that is washed over us. God loves us he loves everything about your own unique and amazing personality. He says you are my child and when "I see you I get this tremendous smile on my face and I just cannot hide it" " I call for my angels to look at my marvelous creation!" Though it might not be complete yet it is fearfully and wonderfully made in my eyes. Nothing can separate us from this love no height or depth will ever separate us. He loves us oh how he loves us. When I look at the stars and the moon each night I hear God say I love you more than the moon and the stars I love you more than anything I created on this earth. He loves us we need to realize that he isn't mad at us he isn't disappointed in us and he most certainly thinks we are not failures. He thinks so highly of us that he doesn't have bar put above our heads that we can never be able to reach. He never says we will just not be good enough. But he is the most patient person He wants to be with us every moment of the day every hour every minute. He yearns to be with us that is his hearts desire to just be with us and though we may not be the closest to him He is always the closest to us. We need to grasp onto this thought that God is agape- never ending love. I don't wanna not hold onto this love. And I know I never wanna ever forget about this love and to know it is always there for me no matter what situation I am in because it is never about how big the problem may be it is about how big our God is! God Bless!

Tick Tock Goes the Clock


Have you ever just took a moment to smell the roses? Just take some time to just slow down and enjoy this day or this hour. I know so many time we as Americans must have an agenda like what each day has in store and how it is going to work out. How each minute is going to be taken. Well have you ever thought that tomorrow might now be granted to us? That is why folks its called a present (Kung Fu Panda). But seriously weather that comes from a silly movie who cares it is so true. Seriously why is it we stress over what tomorrow or the next week or the next 5 years have in store. I know as a goal for me I wanna slow down more and enjoy my time on this earth to impact the lives of others. I know for a fact is if I ever passed away while still young I don't wanna be known as just that high school girl but rather a girl that impacted this world. I wanna get to know more people sit down and listen to their life stories. Imagine if every one took a moment out of their day to serve someone else to actually listen and not reject. I know we are busy Americans with jobs, education and family and friends but what about those so called "nobodies"? I know as you read this we all know one of those people. Those people who get made fun of behind their backs those people who sit all alone and those people who everybody just uses for their own benefits. Taking time out of our schedules to help a person who we wanna reach out to think of the change that would make! No more would rumors be spreading or drama being caused but peace would finally reign over. And think of this thought what if we talked to that person about Jesus? The Author of each of our lives. Think of that for just one moment. Think if you talked to that person and just told them that Jesus loves them and they were made for a divine purpose in this life. Can you imagine how that would impact a depressed person who thought today would be their last day because they cannot take it anymore? Can you imagine what that can do? It could stir up a strong emotion called joy that some people seriously haven't felt in forever because something has robbed them of their joy like a divorce or a job loss or a bad relationship. You never know you could save someone's life. I know for me 2 years ago I made the best decision I ever made I gave my life to Jesus what lead me to him was well I was a mess and somebody took time out of there schedule to take me to youth group. Knowing that someone actually cared ya know back then it made my day. Imagine if you were also that person to someone! Just even if you took like 5 minutes out of your time to talk to a complete stranger. Ya know something the hurt and the broken the sick and the weary aren't going to come to us but we are going to need to go to them. Jesus went to the broken and weary it brings me back to that one blog I wrote a while back about the demon possessed man. The man didn't come to Jesus, Jesus went all the way out to the middle of no where for him. He saw that man's worth and he was motivated with compassion to reach out. Lets reach out to those people in today's society and touch them with compassion. Lets take a moment and look through the glasses of what our Big Daddy sees this world as. Because like I said tomorrow is not promised by any means. God bless you all.
