Hello and welcome to my blog. I am a sixteen year old, Christian girl. I have been homeschooled all my life. I love horses, reading, writing, playing the flute and guitar, and the country. I hope you enjoy my blog! http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/stillsmallvoice/ en-us Homeschool Blogger Tue, 2 Dec 2008 20:31:00 -0600 Tue, 2 Dec 2008 20:31:00 -0600 The greatest man in History, Jesus, had no servants yet they called Him Master. Had no degree yet they called Him Teacher. Had no medicines yet they called Him Healer. He had no army yet kings feared Him. He won no military battles yet He conquered the world. He committed no crime yet they crucified Him. He was buried in a tomb yet He lives today. I feel honored to serve such a leader who loves us! Jesus said..."If you deny me before man, I will deny you before my Father in Heaven." "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosover believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life." ~John 3:16~ "The Lord your God is with you, he is mighty to save." ~Zephaniah 3:17~ "And he died for all, that those who live shall no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again." ~2 Corinthians 5:15~ "However if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear his name." ~1 Peter 4:16~ "If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face than I will hear from Heaven." ~2 Chronicles 7:14~ http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/stillsmallvoice/627290/ Tue, 2 Dec 2008 20:31:00 -0600 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/stillsmallvoice/627290/          Hey Everyone! Since we are all coming up on Thanksgiving I thought I'd post some verses about this time of year I love so much.                                                  Psalms 95:2 & 3 "Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms. For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods."                Psalms 100 "Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands. Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations."         Psalms 107:1 "Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever."      1 Chronicles 29:13 Now, our God, we give you thanks, and praise your glorious name." http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/stillsmallvoice/622577/ Fri, 21 Nov 2008 21:47:00 -0600 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/stillsmallvoice/622577/ http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/stillsmallvoice/537785/ Sun, 25 May 2008 15:50:00 -0500 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/stillsmallvoice/537785/          As far as the East is from the West. So far has He removed our transgressions from us.                     Psalms 103:12 Here I am Lord and I'm drowning In your sea of forgetfulness The chains of yesterday surround me I yearn for peace and rest I don't want to end up where you found me And it echoes in my mind Keeps me awake tonight I know you've cast my sins as far As the East is from the West And I stand before you now As though I've never sinned but today I feel like I'm just one mistake away From you leaving me this way Jesus can you show me Just how far the East is from the West Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been Come rising up in me again In the arms of your mercy I find rest Cause you know just how far the East is from the West From one scared hand to the other I start the day the war begins Endless reminding of my sin Time and time again Your truth Is drowned out by the storm I'm in Today I feel like I'm just one mistake away From you leaving me this way Jesus can you show me Just how far the East is from the West Cause I can't bear to see the man I've been Come rising up in me again In the arms of your mercy I find rest Cause you know just how far the East is from the West From one scared hand to the other I know you've washed me white Turned my darkness into light I need your peace to get me through To get me through this night I can't live by what I feel But by the truth your word reveals I'm not holding on to you But your holding on to me Your holding on to me Jesus, you know just how far The East is from the West I don't have to see the man I've been Come rising up in me again In the arms of your mercy I find rest (The arms of your mercy I find rest) Cause you know just how far the East is from the West From one scared hand to the other(x2) (Just how far, the East is from the West) (x3) From one scarred hand to the other Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.           Isaiah 1:18   http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/stillsmallvoice/471365/ Wed, 30 Jan 2008 18:22:00 -0600 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/stillsmallvoice/471365/ To always look to God; Remembering His faithfulness, Understanding His ways, Studying His word,             and Touching others with His love. http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/stillsmallvoice/470256/ Tue, 29 Jan 2008 09:32:00 -0600 http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/stillsmallvoice/470256/ 4 Jobs I've had: -babysitting -stacking wood -church janitor -i can't think of something else that I get paid for 4 Movies I have watched over and over: -Lord of the Rings -Pirates I, II, and III -Pride and Prejudice -Ratataouille 4 Places I have lived: -Adironacks -New York -S.

Why is it so hard to talk about God But so easy to gossip? Why are we so bored when we look at a Christian magazine But find it so easy to read Playboy?
