What Well Are You Drinking Out Of?

My lil Happys Lately 

Got to go home to Louisiana, and spend time with my mom and make something for a friend whos dad passed away.

So excited to wear my shorts I made in class. Hooray for spring!

Started a new bible study in Isaiah and made bookmarks for my class. =]

Oh, how I love to make things for people and give all the glory to God. He gives me a lot of patience and kindness throughout the process of my projects! God is good, all the time =]

So my preacher made a great point yesterday at church. He said it is great that BlueBell 

so many different  flavors because then we can have so many different choices. Sometimes it is hard to decide on a flavor and when we choose one and try it for the first time we might love it and think it’s the most amazing thing ever, but after a few times of eating it, its not so great.  And we go back to the store because we are hungry for a different flavor . This is just like world today. So many people are hungry for something in life besides just food but like comfort,  or love that they feel is missing out of their life. So they turn to drugs, alcohol relationships, sex, porn, music, or exercising, and there are many more things people turn to in this world today.

They feel like these things are going to fulfill their life and make them happy. Although, these things might make them happy at first they are only temporary in life and will not fulfill their eternal life. I will admit I have been there and done things not of God, and its addicting but never made me happy, and one day God showed me what  I was doing wrong and how to live a life through Christ and not of my own will, and now I see things so differently, it was like God took that veil off across my face and showed me truth, which is through him and his word. But like I was saying people  will keep going back for more or try new things, and nothing seems to make them happy in the end. In John 4:13-14  God says “ Anyone who drinks this water will soon become  thirsty again. But those who drink the water I give, will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh,bubbling spring within them, giving them eternal life.  And this is so true, yet very sad because its such a easy concept that many people in this world today can not grasp or do not care to take part in Gods will. I believe this with all heart, that if people of today would stop being selfish and believe in Gods word, our world would be such a happier place! So, my question today is WHAT WELL ARE YOU DRINKING OUT OF? ARE YOU DRINKING OUT OF GODS WELL? OR YOUR OWN OR THE WORLDS?

My Happy Day =]

So, I just recently started a bible study at Watermark! Its going to be awesome! We are studying the book called Be Comforted, by Warren W. Wiersbe. Its about the book Isaiah, and it is going to be about Isaiah and so far in the first chapter it is about his teachings and how he tried to turn some kings towards God, but some did not listen! I was so thrilled when I left the bible study, that I called my parents to tell them all about it and I lefted my bible at church! So, this morning I had to get out my old children's bible, and I was so worried I had lost my precious bible. Its like a part of me, so when I had thought I had lost it, it made me very upset! Of course, I went to church, and there it was, right where I lefted it! God is good!!! So, today has been awesome! And this is a video of my favorite songs ever and this is the song I wanted to start dancing to when I found my bible today!!!!!! Not going to lie, I did a leap when I walked outside! =] Well I love you guys and I cant wait to share what is going on in my life through this bible study! Happy Friday Yall!!! =]]]]]]]]]]]]]]] Feel free to let loose while listening to the video, I know I do!

Who is Your American "Idol"???

Who are they, and What do they symbolize? 

What is their purpose?

Is this what our expectations should be in life?

To become famous?

Rich?

Be the best looking?

And then our lives will be happy and perfect?

Personally I have found, that this is what most people desire. Becoming rich, famous, and being the hottest chick/guy in town. Although these people above, are very successful, and some are good role models , these type of people should not become our idols. Most of the world today strives on all these things, that are worldly things, and they have lost the whole picture of life. Its hard not to step into the worldly things, but it seems as though it surrounds us. I know at times, I want to have a lot of money, because sometimes the world tells us that you will be happy if your rich, but I find it very ironic, that must rich people are not happy, and they can never have enough. It says in James 5:1-3, Look, here you rich people:weep and groan with anguish because of all the terrible troubles ahead of you. Your wealth is rotting away and your fine clothes are moth eaten rags. Your gold and silver have become worthless. The very wealth you were counting on will eat away your flesh like fire. This treasure you have accumulated will stand as evidence against you on the day of judgement. These verses are so very powerful, and tell us that things on this earth are no good, and if your idol in life is being wealthy and having the most expensive thing, than it might seem as though on earth, that your life is great, and your powerful, but when your time comes to meet the Lord, that power will be wiped away, and you will than realize that all wealth and expensives you cumulated on earth, were pointless and had no meaning in life.

One thing, was missing, and that was God. 

If only I could explain this to the whole world and they would understand, This world would than be a mighty and powerful place, that made the Lord happy, but there will always be unbelievers, but we as Christian, have to live throughout example and our actions will shine through to the people who are lost, in this worldly world, where things that are accepted now, go against all measures of the word of God.

Most people are followers, for example following trends, listening to peoples advice, or doing what one is told to do or believe.

My mission is to be a leader, that is to follow God, but lead others the right down the path and not the wrong way.

which path will you choose?

Narrow Path to Heaven?

Or the Highway like the World 

???????

CONTROL FREAK?

DO YOU REALLY HAVE CONTROL?

                                                   YOU MIGHT THINK YOU DO...

Do you rather drive your car than ride with a friend? Do you find yourself telling people what to do? Do you have to have it your way or the highway? Well, we all struggle with these common things, and sometimes don't even realize it, that were actually being a control freak! I know I personally struggle with these issues, because sometimes I have more trust in myself than others, so its more of a trust issue than anything. Because we know ourselves more than anyone else , although we might think we know people but in reality we dont really know that person like they know themselfs, or like God does. Often people become controlling because they want that power in their life that they feel they dont have, such is at work, a relationship, or anything in life. There is something missing, and controlling is a way to fulfill that need. In Jeremiah 17:5-7 it says, those whom have mere humans incontrol of life are cursed, and those whom have put God incontrol are blessed, and have hope and confidence in the Lord. This hits home to me, because I have always been a scared like person, one of my deepest darkest secrets is I have always looked under my bed before I go to sleep, or slept with the light on when I went to sleep. These things are so silly and childish, but they are evidence of my lack in trust in God, just recently I have put my full trust in the Lord, and given him full control, and I dont even really think of doing these things anymore. That fear is now gone, and my thoughts are filled with other things, such as things I come across throughout the day and also people I associate with on a daily basis. I like to observe people and their actions, because you can learn alot by just a persons body language. While, sitting at a local cafe, I often enjoy my food, while ease dropping on what they are talking about or figure out what they are focused on. Most are usually on their phones, computers, or trying to keep their kids undercontrol. Little do they know, they are taking part in some type of control, whether it be choosing who they are talking to on the phone, to what website they are on, and how to control their kids. What people dont know is a lot of our lives is all about control, and we think we have control of our whole life. Wrong, we have no control of this life on earth, and this is on issue, I would like to share to the world. Their would be a lot less worry, heartache, and fear in this world. If only people knew they dont really have control over their life. You can for sure try, but their will always be things that get in the way, that will make your life go in another direction whether your a Christian or not. So, why not put God in control of the driver seat and you be his passenger and follower. Maybe I should work for the company L.G. ( Life is Good) but just change their slogan to Life is Good with God =] So, my question for you is, do you think your the driver or is God the captain ? Aka Ruler, driver, of your life? 

Disconnect to Reconnect

Hello people of this world! This is my first blog ever, and I am thrilled to share with you what is going on in my life, and how God is working in my life. Well, I recently was driving down the road and as I was noticing, everyone passing me by, everyone that did, was either on a cell phone or texting. It suddenly hit me that , there is no need for texting, yes our world might make it seem as though we need it, but what did we do when we didn't have cell phones? My point exactly, we are losing communication with others, and wasting time with texting, and the addiction it can cause. Although, it is fun, I find it a huge time waster, and a horrible way to improve your english writing abilities! So, I have set a goal for myself, to completely get rid of texting off of my phone. Today, is the first full day of not having it, and its a huge relief, and I have gotten to spend more time reading , and doing other things that matter in life. God is showing me whats most important in life, and texting is not one of them! So, if your a goal setter, why dont you set a goal to just get rid of texting, and I promise you will see a difference in your life, and yes you can live without it! I am! =]]]]] I will be posting, more about this issue and other daily activities I do throughout my week! Well Im out! Feel free to comment!
