Sunshine and Spring

Another blog from Spring break a few weeks ago.


On a different note now.. When looking outside these past few days I have been blessed to see the wonderful sun shining. It reminds me that in just a few short weeks spring will be here. I love that time of the year. Not only because of its warmth but because it reminds me so much of what God has done for me. And all that he has done for the world. God is wonderful. I mean look outside right now. Who besides God could create such wonderful things. When I look outside this very moment I see complete darkness, but this is because he created day and night. And on some of these nights when I look outside I see the stars shining bright, I see the moon shining even brighter. And it makes me think about how wonderful the world is. How about those who live by a lake? When you look outside and see the moon and stars shining over the lake, what can you not help but think? How about how beautiful and wonderful it is outside. Or what is it that you think? I like to go outside and just think about my day and the things that have been bothering me. Its very easy to do this when outside is wonderful and beautiful. I could sit outside for hours just thinking. Pondering on life.

I am thankful for what I have been given. And even though I know my life isn't all what they would consider perfect, I'm happy with it. Because its what God gave me, so I can make the best of it. He doesn't give us anything he doesn't think we can't handle, so if my parents want nothing to do with me, people treat me bad because of what I believe, etc. I will be just fine because its all in Gods plan. Besides I do have wonderful people in my life who make up for those I don't have in my life. And they sometimes don't realize how much they mean to me. I am so very thankful.

Some don't have anything. They are dying, starving, sick, help less, etc. So why should I be complaining? When I have so much more than they do? I am able to go to college, when so few can't do that. I have a warm house to stay in, no matter the circumstance, some don't have that. And many things like that. Why am I so SELFIOUS? Why is it that so many Americans and non Americans are like this????? Ever wonder?

Love.

Today I was reading the last few chapters of Isaiah when I came to a wonderful realization. In these last few chapters, the new heaven and earth our talked about. It also is brought to our attention how God will judge who gets to be there. And why he does it.. I would have to say that my thoughts are completely changed because of this. Not to mention I think the Bible alone is proof that God exists.

First off, I'll explain why I think the Bible alone is proof of God. The Bible was written very long ago, like hundreds of years. But there are defiantly things that have been written in this book that have come to pass. Also it can help you through anything you are going through. What other books can do that? I do not think no person could write such a powerful book. I do not believe that a human could predict the future in such a way. So I think that God himself is the only answer for the book. So he must be real right?

My amazing concept. People always ask how a wonderful loving God can send his people to hell. But I think that he gives us free will because he loves us, in our hearts we already know what is the truth and what is right, if we chose to ignore it, or not act upon what is right then we are choosing not to love him. We are then choosing not to accept his gift of heaven. So in return we send ourselves to hell. I truly believe this.

This is my new changed look on life. I hope you the reader of this take that in too thought. And act upon what you know is true, and right.

An absolutely wonderful god

I love knowing that no matter who we are, or what we have done that Jesus still loves us. That he will always want us. The Bible says that he will never forsaken us. (Deut. 31:6) All we have to do is understand he loves us, that he died for us, and that we are all sinners. Then we can simply just follow his rules. And live for him. I'm happy that when I die I get the chance to go to heaven and be with him. Even though none of us deserve that. But he will reward us if we do as he asks. 


God wants us to know that when we feel discouraged he is there for us. “I will not leave you comfort-less: I will come to you.” – John 14:18. That he created us all equally none of us are better than the other. He will love us all the same and he will in the end judge us too. In the thought that he created us all equally then we are all beautiful. Our beauty shines even more when we can demonstrate Gods love. If you ever feel like no one loves you, remember this God does no matter what you have done. Just give it to him and he will take care of you. We are his everything. We are to live all for him. He is gave us the best gift. He truly will always care about us.

Beautiful One.

I wrote this blog entry awhile back. Well on Spring Break.

Waking up early in the morning is never an easy task for me. But once I'm up, I'm such a morning person. Well today I had to wake up at seven. Not always so enjoyable.

In a bible study today with my uncle and some home-school teachers I though about what a wonderful SPRING day it seems to be. Im thankful to see what a wonderful world God has created for me and the rest of the people living in this world. Spring always reminds me of how wonderful our God is. To think he made those birds we hear chirping, he made the green grass, the blue skies, the sun, and all the other wonderful things on this earth.

Besides my thoughts on spring, I have been thinking about the Bible in general. Also at this time devotion they talked about how important it was to know the scripture so that you couldn't be tricked. It all came up because of the Pastor Rob Bell and his new book Love Wins. I remember Eric, a good friend of mine always telling me that I am easily tricked into believing things. I have a hopeful goal to work on learning more about the Bible in order to know Gods word.

I love just the little things I learn at Bible studies, and the other places I learn things about God at.Im hoping with more involvement with them and with personal Bible study, and devotions I can improve myself. So that is my goal. Now a hopeful enjoyment of that.
