Nov. 7, 2009 - TX army base shooting
Hey everyone!
I just wanted to let ya all know to be praying.
In a Texas army base one of OUR men (and possibly a couple others) attacked and killed many.
I'm not sure what details are but I'm sure if you look on the news it won't be too hard to find.
So just be praying for everyone there and those who have loved ones there!
Thanks.
God bless,

Hello,
So for a long time I haven't really written anything really interesting so I thought
I would actually write something.
So for those of you who would like to see pictures of our trip I will post a few
on this post. YAY lol
And for those of you who have been reading my blog and just waiting for
me to actually say something interesting I think that the following might be
interesting enough for you...if not...I'm sorry. haha
I have another blog as some of you may know and it's for girls only. On there I
write bible studies and such. Well I was thinking that I should starting posting
whatever I post on there on here as well...but I will make them able to be read
by boys so all my guy friends on here may read as well. :)
So here is a post that I recently made on Self-control...I hope you like it!
"Then come together so that Satan will not tempt you
because of your lack of self-control."
Corinthians 7:5
Wow. Our lack of self-control? Ouch.
Do we really lack self-control, and if we do what areas of our lives
do we lack? We all lack some self-control sometimes. When your little
brother does something to annoy you
and you throw a fit calling him a jerk, I'd say that's lacking self-control.
When your team looses you start calling the other team cheaters and such
even though they didn't cheet.
Your just mad you lost and need to get it out, right?
Okay, so maybe you don't need to let it out like that. No calling names.
Counting to 10 helps a lot...seriously....it does.
Just take a second, sit down, breathe, and think about WHY you are frustrated.
Really, if you think about it, most of us lack a LOT of self-control.
How else could you respond to the situation?
Annoying little brother-
"Hey Joe that's really bothering me, could you stop or do it
somewhere else, please?"
You could also consider just moving yourself. Take turns. It doesn't
help you by getting worked up about something that could so easily be fixed.
Another thing you could think about is why does whatever hes doing annoy you?
Lost Game-
Just relax. Thats the key. Stay relaxed. I know I sound like some therapist or
something...but it's true!
If you handle things with anger and don't think, things may get worse than
they really need to.
Hurting other people isn't the answer either. If you are frustrated for a
good reason, such as they are hurting you, then talk to a grown up or elder or
go to the person directly and ask them nicely to stop. If things do not
end then it would be a good idea to ask for help from an elder you trust.
And everyone looses sometimes. People see a good sport when you are okay
with the loss and keep working hard to turn it into a win!
There are tons of things that we can get overly obsessed with and thats
something we need to be careful of and watch ourselves on.
In the first part of the verse it says " Come together".
What does that mean? And your reply is, "Well duh! It means come together,
am I right or am I right?"
Well yeah, your right. :) But lets look a little deaper into it, k?
If all of us lack self-control...what will "coming together" do?
Think of it this way-
Satan is this super big buff bad guy who is trying to prevent you
from getting somewhere and break you, mkay?
You trust God. You love God. But you have made some mistakes. Doesn't
sound like it will be too easy for you, now does it?
Now think of it this way-
Satan- big buff guy
You and a TON of other people- who are all followers of Christ! :D
It sounds like you got a lot better chance, doesn't it? Plus you all have
this SUPER AWESOME God to lead you!!
So when it says to come together it meens encourage, love, give advice,
take advice to the others around you. Sometimes it could be a little more
general. God calls us to come together to fight all the evil that is put
before us.
For a little more on the subject pick up your bible and look
up the following verses (feel free to do some of your own research)-
2 Peter 1:5-7
Galations 5:22-23
Please right down any thoughts that you have had along this read, or even
later on in the day! Also, we would love to see any verses that you might
have found while doing some studies. :)
Anyways...so thats it! Please let me know what you think. I am always open to
your comments!
Okay, so now it's time for pictures! I am not able to post pictures with people i
n them so all the pictures that I post will be scenic. I'm sorry, but thats just the
way it goes.
I hope you enjoy!

Monday 26 October 2009 - Hello, ya'll!
Yes, so it's been a while and most of you think I've joined FaceBook (but I haven't! Huzzah for me!). Life's been busy (when is it NOT?) and PLLM is on a roll and this week is our first PLLDiscipleship Group! I'm a little nervous, but I think it'll go smoothly...if you ever try contacting me on HSB, it may be faster to just drop me a comment on PLLM's site instead as I check that one more often than this one....
...and what was so important to even bring me here to post in the first place? Zoe's tag.=P Yeah, you didn't think I would just come and post for any reason, right? lol Enjoy...grab the tag if you'd like.
