    Pondering..

    Tweet “Covered by your love divine Child of the risen Lord To hear you say this One’s mine My heart is spoken for” Take this world from me I don’t need it anymore My Heart is Spoken For-Mercy Me I’m supposed to be working on my homework, but I’m listening to music and this song happened to be playing and I started to ponder what the words were really saying. It talks about our hearts being spoken for. I realized that through my salvation Christ has spoken for my heart, He’s claimed it for his own. And I realized that so often, I follow other things and my heart is…

    Take a minute to ponder this..

    Tweet I got this poem on my e-mail, and it struck me hard. It’s kinda long, but I thought I would share it with all of you as a plee to you if you aren’t saved, talk to someone about it, and if you are, to go out and witness. I had on new clothes, New sneakers on my feet. I was there for class on time, Went to the back and took my seat. Yeah, I’m moving up, I’m already grown. Soon I’ll be graduating, And out on my own. I talked to some of my friends, We were all having fun. Said some things I shouldn’t have said.…

    The Weird Ways God Works..

    Tweet The weird ways God works.. Isn’t it funny sometimes how God seems to know just what you need when you need it? Today I was driving home from school, and dwelling on the rather low points in my day, when I tuned into the song playing on my radio. It happend to be the chorus from a song on my new FFH cd..I love them. But anyways, it went like this.. Hey hey, it’s a good day, even if things aren’t going my way Jesus is born and I am saved Hey hey it’s a good day As I was listening to it on my short drive home, I…

    CIT

    Tweet Well, it’s storming really hard outside and the rain reminded me of camp this summer. I was at the Wilds for two weeks in their CIT program, and it was a blast. I made so many awesome friends and have so many memories. Such as many, many meals in the pouring rain. And can anyone say freaky aliens hiding in the woods. I don’t think I have ever been more scared in my life. But with all the fun times, came many many times for spiritual growth and challenge. God did so much in my life during those two weeks..I can truly say they were life-changing. Not only did…

    My Greatest Fear

    Tweet Well, Our topic today is our greatest fear. And I can’t really think of my greatest fear. One that is high on my list is being kidnapped by some weird guy. (I’ll let you ponder what else could happen) I guess I have watched too many shows about that. Who knows, although not very many people my age seem to get kidnapped. I also have a great fear of heights. For some odd reason, this has plagued me for many years. And it comes up at the oddest times. Like the one time a few of my fellow classmates thought it would be funny to push Amanda around the…

    Some Day

    Tweet You ever have one of those days that wasn’t really bad, but wasn’t really good? The kind you look back over and think, man, I blew that test or I have so much homework. You can’t really seem to recall much good in them, however sometimes you just have to search a little harder. I was sitting here tonight dwelling on what in my mind was a bad day, and all of a sudden I remembered what a fun cross country practice we had. And how most of teachers seemed to be in good moods today. And the many good conversations and laughs I had with my friends. In…

    My Utmost For His Highest

    Tweet “Beware of living according to your natural affections in your spiritual life. Everyone has natural affections-some people we like and others we don’t like. Yet we must never let those likes and dislikes rule our Christian life. Being a disciple means deliberately identifying yourself with God’s interests in other people. (John 13:34-35) The true expression of Christian character is not in good-doing, but in God-likeness.” My Utmost for His Highest-September 20 I read that in my devotions last night, and it majorly convicted me. So often I chose to serve and show Christ-likeness to only those I like, not those who I may not like. However, God has called…
