Long time

Thu, 24 Apr 2008 20:20:00 -0500

OK, yeah I know I haven't posted in a very long time. But I guess that is because so much has happened. I have changed so much since my last post that the me then probably would not be recognized by the me now.... Ok, maybe not that much but it feels like it. I at least know that I have grown leaps and bounds in understanding of God. I have seen amazing things happen. Reversals of heart wrenching situations. God is a good God who doesn't wish to see us suffer. I have learned that I need to lean on God more and more. I hope life has been treating you good. Tell me about how much you have changed. Keep leaning on God, Becca

When God says step up

Wed, 6 Dec 2006 15:25:00 -0600

People of the world a time is coming soon.
A time of revivals. A time of supernatural overflow.
A time when God says step up.
When we try not do what we do but what God can.
Not on our own of course but with his help.
A revival of change is sweeping through the land.
We may have friends who hate us. We may have friend
who will abandon us. Think us crazy and even persecute us.
We may be mocked and laughed at. But our time is here.
A time when we will step up.
When miracles will flow like water over a falls.
A time is coming when we must become
more than anything we could be on our own.
Advances in medicine will arrive.
New cures and new procedures.
Prosperity will fill the homes.
And all of the people will wonder why we are blessed.
People will wonder why we are happy when they are not.
They will see that we have something more.
And then they will want it too. We shall share it with them.
They will take it and share it with other.
The world is not getting better.
It is getting much worse. The people are in sin.
We must be a guide for the next generation.
Show them there is a much better way.
All this will happen when God says step up.
-An Open Heart

Future Times?

Wed, 27 Sep 2006 15:25:00 -0500

A time is coming.
Change is a foot.
Things Are happening.
Are all of them good?
With cities growing big.
With shopping centers pouring in.
It is all good,right?
In our rush to be number 1.
Have we forgotten our Lord?
A focus on jobs and Cars.
Homes and sometimes a family.
We lose are focus on one thing.
The most important thing of all.
It's not about jobs.
Not about cars or homes.
It's about a child.
Asmall one in fact.
Born to a virgin girl.
It was the King.
Who didn't have granduer at all.
Shepherds stopped to see the sight.
But most didn't notice at all.
Please stop to see the wonderfull king.
Tak just moments thats all.
And you will find Yaweh the risen Lord.

long time

Thu, 6 Jul 2006 22:33:00 -0500

I am sorry that I am been gone so long. I have been to camp it was amazing. I have had my hair cut. and mom took a new pic so my profile pick is different. but sometimes I realize how much I care about the natural when I should be caring about the supernatural. Anyone ever had a time when they are having a spiritial battle and all you can think about is "I look like a wreck." Believe me I have been there and done that. I am discouraged none of my prayers being answered. A little depressed then I look in the mirror. "Ick I look terrible. Man I need to wash my hair. Oh speaking of hair I need a cut. When will people stop mistaking me for a 9 year old. My face looks so babyish." And I just continue to talk about myself in a bad way. And when I finish I feel worse then I did before. But one time when this happened I started thinking about the good things. Like that I don't have acne or pimples. That I am beautiful in Jesus's eyes. Then I feel better. When you get to the point when your thoughts are on Jesus the inner battle is easier. After I started thinking about God. I read my Bible and prayed about what I was going through. Though I still had doubts try to come to me I felt better. When ever life seems like it is letting you down. Or you feel like your praying to the wall don't give up. He is listening honest. You just need to listen for him. Sorry if I rambled a bit. but I just get a little carried away.

Someone besides me

Tue, 18 Apr 2006 15:27:00 -0500

Some times I am so self absorbed. It is like am dancing around sing It's all about me over and over again. Cause if I don't get to do something I was setting my heart on I mope. Though I know I am not the first one to do this and I am not the last
I still know that I was wasting time. Life isn't about just me.
Life is about all of thing alive. That means sometime I need to step back and look at the big picture. I need to think about someone besides myself.
If I took time and consitrated on how to make life better for my siblings.
If I took time to do something special for my mom.
If it was Coloring a picture or making her an oragami something or another.
I can tell you my time would be much better spent then at moping.
When I am mopy I need to step back and take a look open my eyes.
There are other people who are upset about something a lot more serious then missing there sleep over. Yet they are the ones passed by.
Sometimes on perpose sometimes not. Still they're problems are ignored while someone who is pouting about missing not getting to do something is comforted.
I and many other people need to think about others like the bible says to do.
I mean we are supposed to be like God.

Eph 4:24* And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.

And God thought about others so much that he sacrificed his only begotten son.

Joh 3:16* For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Now if he is so willing to give up his son shouldn't we be willing to give up selfish thoughts? Shouldn't we consintrate on others first ?
We should all be thinking I need to worry about someone besides me.
When you helpe someone else then ofter your wories seem so much smaller.
So on that note. If anyone needs prayer I would be happy to pray for you.
Just E-mail me or leave a Comment and I will remember you in my prayers.
Good bye And God Bless.

Hi Everybody!
I have been busy and sore.
Saturday morning I left for a youth event that would last till Sunday night.
So I am going to tell you about what I did there and how much fun I had.
When we arrived at the Gym that was rented for our youth group it was around 6.
We started out the night by going to this stage in the grass and watching a live band. Then we got to play! We were jumping around and having so much fun.
We went and listened to the band some more than we had to go to the house.
The house being where the girls were staying overnight.
We watched Yours mine and ours played games drank soda and ate pizza.
After that we stayed up talking till 2 AM.
I woke up at 6 AM and started getting ready for church.
We ate at about 7:30. We had Eggs, Bacon, Biscuts, Waffles and Orange juice.
Then at 8:30 we left for church. Church ended a little around 9:45 or 10.
We Got on the bus to head back home.
We ate around 1 PM at Wendy's and reached our youth building at 4 PM.
We started prepare for our night of the Spring Breakout.
