Waiting For Tomorrow

Hi Everyone, So, do you treat your Bible like cake for special occasions or bread for daily nourishment? Sadly I'm in between the two, but more in the realm of bread than cake. In reading a book called, "Preparing to Be a Helpmeet," the author brought up Esther and Ruth, and it made me pick up my Bible to reread they're stories; they are pretty strong and courageous woman! It got me wondering how I'd react if I was in their shoes as well as made me think about all the amazing stories in the Bible and how sometimes I feel that we, or maybe I should just say I, overlook the fact that they were real people with real feelings because I've heard/read the stories so many times. I know of course there aren't "real" superheros in the Bible, but considering Batman, Spiderman, etc don't actually exist it's fair to say that the many courageous men and women this book tells us about can be considered superheros. Even if you don't believe in God,...

Hey, So, this has been on my mind a lot lately, and although I just posted a few minutes ago, I feel I need to post this now or I never will. If you are friends with me at all, you probably know music is a HUGE part of my life and my all time favorites, I'll defend like I know them personally, weird maybe, but it's true. You'll probably, also, know that my favorite band is DAUGHTRY and one of my favorite male artists is Adam Lambert (both of whom I want to see SO bad this summer)!! I have seen Chris before and have seen Adam as well, but I've never seen DAUGHTRY and I'm a huge enough Glambert that I'd see Adam far more than just twice, and plus he's touring with QUEEN!! You probably are wondering where in the world I'm going with this, and I might loose some readers because of it, but I feel I have to get this off my chest. I'm sure, most of you know, even if you're not a big music person that Adam Lambert is gay...quite gay...I mean I've got...

Hey All, Does any else feel lonely sometimes even when they're with other people, or is it just me? I know God, has perfect timing and when it's my time for a boyfriend/husband it'll happen, but man, sometimes I end up wondering what's wrong with me? Girls younger than me have boyfriends and here I am, with my chocolate, my Bible, and Netflix, wondering where my prince is at. My heart, body, and soul long to be the center of some guy's world, for him to want nothing more than to come home to me after work and to live life with me; well of course I want God to come first before that, but you know what I mean, right? Love songs, movies, and novels all paint this perfect picture and although I know God is writing my "perfect" love story the last month or so it's been tough for me. I don't need a guy to complete me, God does that, but I still dream of the day when I'll be someone's other half. I think my loneliness, is partly, also, due to me h...

Hey All, So, God blessed me last night (well He's always blessing me, but you know what I mean) by allowing me to be able to watch the How Great is Our God video, again with some good friends/fellow believers. No matter how many times I watch this video it always has the same effect on me and I greatly encourage you guys to take the time to watch this, whether you share my belief in God or not. It talks, not only about how GREAT our God is, but goes over facts about some pretty cool stars and some of the beauty and miracle of the human body...it truly is incredible! No matter how many times I watch this, I'm in awe and brought to tears with knowing that the Star Breather and the Life Maker takes time for me....little old me who is SO small in the scheme of all that He has made yet He truly cares! It blows my mind and gives me such a peace that I can't describe! I've been a little stressed the last few days and, sure, I still have a lot going on in my life, but I KNOW ...

Hi All, So I know that I keep saying this, but I'm sorry I haven't been blogging very much lately. If you've ever been in so much pain it sucks all the energy out of you even before you get out of bed you might understand; but now I'm happy to say I've had the surgery and feel MUCH better! Still a tiny bit sore around the largest incision and a little bit more tired than "normal," but nothing to complain about. Anyways the subject of modesty is something that's been on my mind the last few weeks, so I figured I'd share a few thoughts. Now I won't be telling you what you can and what you can't wear, but I just wanted to put a few of my ideas out there. I had a whole blog post in my head a few weeks ago, but after working all that weekend I forgot most of it and haven't felt up to finishing this post since. I don't remember how I was going to phrase everything, so hopefully I can make this make sense. :) So first of all, I grew up wit...

Hey Everyone, What comes to mind when you hear the word "Religion"? To me, it brings to mind people who believe differently than I do telling me or fellow Christians that we are "religious" and that they think our "religion" is stupid/doesn't make any sense etc. I hardly ever hear it said in a form of reverence or pride from none believers and believers alike. While the words, in themselves, are not wrong and if you like to classify yourself as religious then that's perfectly fine, but for me, the words don't fit and I could easily say I can't stand them. Jesus Christ is my Savior, He is NOT my religion. I don't live by a set of rules or standards because otherwise I'm going to Hell; I choose to live my life a certain way because I respect and trust my God knows what's best for me. People may not get this, and even some fellow Christians may find my views insulting, but I really don't care. I know that may sound harsh, and m...

Hey Everyone! So I woke up this morning at 4am after falling asleep at 11 and not getting much sleep in between, but instead of tossing and turning, I ended up watching sermons on YouTube and came across Living the Word Church and his sermon series on dating. I have only watched the first one and will probably post something later on, about my thoughts on this matter (I know I kind of touched on it in my "Let's Talk About Weddings" post), but if I can remember later when I have the time, I have some more thoughts I'd like to share. For some reason the hyper link, function is refusing to work (I'll try to fix it later), so if you read this before it's fixed, just type in "How to Get a Man God's Way" in the YouTube search engine. It should be the top one, and if not, like I said, it's posted by Living the Word Church. Sorry about that! Anyways..i t's about an hour long, so make sure you have time to watch the whole thing. I greatly encourag...
