Take a minute.

Life moves fast sometimes, to fast. Sometimes we get to wrapped up in the fast life and we forget the little things. I know I can admit, I become easily distracted by the little things. That little thing can distract me, and can become a big distraction, and that big distraction can cause me to stray away from what I know is best or right. So we must remember to not to get distracted or become overwhelm. Just take a minute to breathe and bask in the beauty, that Jesus Christ has created for us. The other night, as well as, the night before I found myself looking up at the stars, all billion of those beautiful stars and how they light up the sky. Just makes me realize how amazing our God is, for him to place all those stars in the sky and light up the night the way they do is amazing. I just need everyone to look at how amazing the sky looks at night. Just look how amazing the sky looks, although this isn't a picture I took, it's still a picture of God's w...

One thing Remains...

Psalm 18: 1 | " I love you, O Lord, my strength. This past week plenty of us celebrated Valentine's Day, but some of us didn't take part on celebrating this Holiday. However, my dad did bring me balloons and a really adorable card. Such a cute card! Maybe the lack of celebration was because you are single, lost a significant other, dislike the holiday or didn't want to spend money on buying someone else a gift. (Okay maybe not the last one.) You get where I'm coming from--- I didn't celebrate Valentines day with a significant other, but that doesn't mean I'm alone or unloved.    1 John 4:7 | "Let us love one another, for love comes from God..." So no matter if you did celebrate Valentine's day or not, one person loves you that day as he does the next and the day before. God. He sent his one and only son to die on the cross for our sins. How he loves us it's an incredible, unending love. His love never fails, never giv...

Thank God.

So today started just like any other, except of the runny nose and the struggle to sleep in  a comfy position because I am sick. However, the day was pretty much the same. Mom leaves by the time I am awake. I make breakfast, dad says "hi baby", baby brother runs around like he's crazy. Pretty normal morning.  Well the impossible happens, snow. Now I don't just mean little flakes, this snow is coming down in sheets. In a matter of 30 minutes about an inch and a half of snow is already coming down. That's exciting because I didn't have to work all sick and stuff, but then I realized my mom is out there.  I get a text from my mom around 1, saying she is leaving at two, her job is closing early. I text back and say "be careful." Next thing I know my dad says, "mommy is in a ditch." Now I freak; is she okay, did she hit her head, or did another car hit her? All of these crazy thoughts, but about another 30 minutes later I find out someone is...

God Be Praised.

Happy Sunday y'all ! So I've gained a new perspective. Worship music.  After I had a Jam session to all my favorite worship music, I realized I wanted to share this with my blog. I have so many songs that inspire, uplift, and make me smile. I find it crazy that all these songs talk about one incredible man. Our God. My God.  It's crazy when you think about it, so many people makes music about this amazing, almighty, all loving, awesome God we have. However, people would rather listen to club music, but don't get me wrong I love a good club song. Drunk in Love, whatever it may be, but no song has the effect like a song about my savior Jesus Christ. And today I just want to share some of my favorite uplifting songs with you all ! 1. Oceans (where my feet may fail) by Hillsong Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders Let me walk upon the waters Wherever You would call me Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander And my faith will be made ...

Realization.

I probably wrote four or five different blog drafts, but I could never find the right words to point out what state I am in and how God is effecting me right now. Today is the day where I feel like I am left alone in the middle of the ocean, stranded to face the world alone. In this ocean, stranded with no sense of direction. One song seem to play in my head. A song that keeps me from sinking to the bottom into a deep dark abyss. The song are a words of encouragement and hope. Oceans (where my feet may fail): In oceans deep My faith will stand And I will call upon Your name And keep my eyes above the waves When oceans rise My soul will rest in Your embrace For I am Yours and You are mine Your grace abounds in deepest waters Your sovereign hand Will be my guide Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me You've never failed and You won't start now --------  Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders Let me walk upon the waters Wherever You would...
