Its Late

It is late its about 3:30 in the morning and I just got home from some Steak n Shake with Kelsey and Sarah. I have no reason to be writing a blog right now because my mind is not working well but oh well I am. I have a lot on my mind currently so I am going to probably later today write about all that.

God is good and amazes me daily. I screw up daily and do not repent enough but still God is good. AMEN!!!!


Here sarah I blogged at 3:30 in the morning like you guessed i would.

Zephaniah 3:17

As I read Zephaniah 3:17 "The LORD your God is with you he is mighty to save He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing" I just wonder how much I truly believe this most days. So often I let the things of this world weigh on me and i don't truly sit back and rejoice in the fact that our God is Might to Save. I mean seriously think about that thought, imagine a loving God who was so mighty to save that he sent His Son to die on a cross for us. He truly does delight in us or else he wouldn't have sent his son here for us. And then it says he even rejoices over us. Seriously sitting here thinking about this gives me just a sense of calm. I sense that no matter what I go through he truly was Mighty to Save.

If you are reading this I just want you to sit back and think about how god truly does save. He reached into the pits and pulled us out. We were not deserving of anything but because of his love he made us deserving. For that I am thankful and I want to write the bridge to the song Mighty to Save by Hillsong because I truly think that if you understand that God truly did save then this should be happening.

"Shine your light and let the whole world see
Were singing
For the glory of the risen king JESUS!!"

Truly think about how Mighty to Save God is!!!

Love you all

What If...

I sit here wondering what the world would think of the Christian Church if they stopped hating. And i understand not all churches hate but I am saying as a whole. So many times Christians want to stand outside abortion clinics, gay rallies, or anything that they think is bad and picket and complain. What if we stopped doing that? What if we stepped up to the plate and stop shunning people who are not like us? What if we showed them the love of Christ?

Christ is what we are all about, we believe that Jesus out of LOVE came and died on a cross for our sins. But so often we forget that we are just as guilty as the person next to us and that we deserve nothing. What if someone stood outside your house and picketed and complained about you because of your sinful state? How would you feel and what would you think about the Christian Church? No sin is worse then another and I think it is time we start acting like Christ instead of running his name through the dirt.

Also understand that I put we in all this because I am no better then anyone else but I just believe that we need to do something to reach a lost and dying world and complaining about people who sin without looking at ourselves in our sinful state is a problem.

Love yall

Please read this

I was listening to my i-tunes earlier and I came across this song by Building 429 called "Always" and the words pierced my heart. So i wanted to post the words on here for you to read and then put the music video which brought tears to my eyes. God truly is good and this song is amazing. Please read the words then watch the video its amazing!!

I was standing in the pour raining
One dark November night
Fighting off the bitter cold
When she caught my eye
Her face was torn and her eyes were filled
And then to my surprise
She pulled out a photograph
And my heart just stopped inside
She said He would have been three today
I miss his smile, I miss his face
What was I supposed to say

But I believe always always
Our Savior never fails
Even when all hope is gone
God knows our pain and His promise remains
He will be with you always

He was living in a broken world dreaming of a home
His heart was barely keeping pace
When I found him all alone
Remembering the way he felt
When his daddy said goodbye
Fighting just to keep the tears
And the anger locked inside
He's barely holding on to faith
But deliverance is on its way

'Cuz I believe always always
Our Savior never fails
Even when all hope is gone
God knows our pain and His promise remains
He will be with you always

Friend I don't know where you are
And I don't know where you've been
Maybe you're fighting for your life
Or just about to throw the towel in
But if you're crying out for mercy
If there's no hope left at all
If you've given everything you've got
And you're still about to fall
Well hold on, hold on, hold on

Cuz I believe always always
Our Savior never fails
Even when all faith is gone
God knows our pain and His promise remains
Always, Always
He will be with you always
He will be with you always
He will be with you
