BFS- # 18- Dreams

Posted at 2:01 AM on Mar. 12, 2008

Posted in Blogger Friend School

This week for Blogger Friend School, we are suppose to write about what we wanted to be when we grew up. (That's assuming that we are grown up!!! lol!) Well, I wanted to be a lot of things including an actress and make up artist, but the one that stands out in my mind the most was I wanted to be a clothes designer. I use to spend hours drawing clothes. Well, my mom burst my bubble on that one. She told me I would have to learn to sew!!! That did it for me!!! lol!!!

We're suppose to add a verse also, but honestly I can't think of one right now. It's 2:00 am and well, I need to go to bed. I'll try to think of one later.

BFS is now at Nancy's Nook

Blogger Friend School #14

Posted in Blogger Friend School

My love letter to Jesus:

Dear Jesus,

You know I'm not a good letter writer, but you know what is on my heart, so even if I am unable to express it, you always know. You have been there for me through some very rough times. There have been times that I have even thought that you had forgotten me, but you were always there. Thank you Lord, for always being there and loving me even when I was unlovable. Thank you for being the Lord of my life.

Love always,

Lynn

Here is a song that helps express my feelings:

"Amazing Grace"

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That sav’d a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.

’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears reliev’d;
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believ’d!

Thro’ many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promis’d good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.

Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease;
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who call’d me here below,
Will be forever mine.

John Newton, Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779)

BFS- # 7- Pumpkins

Posted at 1:21 AM on Nov. 2, 2007

Posted in Blogger Friend School

For Blogger Friend School we were suppose to show something about pumpkins. Well, here are all the pumpkins I have had in the last week.

My Little Pumpkin

Verse: Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Matthew 20:19

I've been thinking about that verse a lot recently. I will probably never get very far from home. I was not called to be a missionary or a preacher, but as I look at my counter for my blog and it shows that people from 60 (current count) countries have visited my blog, I am awed. I will probably never get to 60 countries in my entire life, but in just a few short months people from around the world have heard how I love Jesus. It's not much, but sometimes it only takes a seed to get planted. I have realized I am being a voice for my Lord and I don't have to travel all over the world because of modern technology.
