Hey I know that I havent posted anything in a while, sorry! I kinda forgot...
     But anyways, I love litsening to music, espescially K-Love radio and I have many favorite songs on there.  (I have a lot of favorites!)  My fav right now is the song called The Proof of Your Love by For King and Country.  I love the lyrics.  The chorus is:

  So let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love
Let my love look like You and what You're made of
How You lived, how You died
Love is sacrifice
So let my life be the proof,
The proof of Your love

     We should be the proof of God's love!  God loves us so much that he died and rose again!  That is one tremendous sacrifice!

     I also love the meaning of the song My Own Little World by Matthew West.  The story that is embeded in the song is so meaningful.  In the beginning he is in his own little world, cautious to give or grow. It's easy.  But then he begins to quesetion if there's a bigger picture, if he's missing out, if there's a greater purpose.  By the end of the song, he realizes that he doesnt what to miss what matters.   

     I love the song 10,000 Reasons by Matt Redman.  The lyrics are so uplifting and hopeful.  Every time I litsen to it, It gives me so much hope and faith that there is a God and He loves us!!!

Bless the lord oh my soul
Oh my soul
Worship his holy name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I worship you holy name

The sun comes up
Its a new day dawning
Its time to sing your song again
What ever may pass and whatever lies before me
Let me be singing when the evening comes
You're rich in love and you're slow to anger
Your name is great and your heart is kind
For all your goodness i will keep on singing
10,000 reasons for my heart to find

Bless the lord oh my soul
Oh my soul

Worship his holy name
Sing like never before
Oh my soul
I worship your holy name

And on that day when my strength is failing
The end draws near and my time has come
Soon my soul will sing your praise un-ending
10,000 years and there forever more

Every day, we should thanks Jesus for all we have and sing His song!

One of my favorite verses in the bible is Jeremiah 29:11. "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Sometimes we think that we know everything and we do not need Jesus.  But really, God has a plan for each and every one of us!  What you think might be a bad idea, just might be what God wants you to do!  His plan for each one of us is totally unique!
   
     I have been reading the book of Ephesians lately. It is probably my favorite book in the bible right now next to Proverbs of course.  Ephesians 2:10 says, "For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do."  We are his creation and we are created to show his love and preach the good news!

     Ephesians 6:11-12 says, "Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.  For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."  We should not give into tempations into this world and stand strong in the Word of God!

     I love to litsening to music. Sometimes you love to just jam out to your favorite tunes on the radio. My favorite radio station is K-Love Radio. They have such amazing Christian and Gospel music. It is so uplifting to just turn on the radio and hear wonderful songs that are so postive.       I love that moment when you are listening to your favorite song the radio and you feel God's presense and you are so happy! That is such a wonderful feeling. Or when you hear or read something that is a lyric to a song and you start humming the song.
Music is such a great uplifter. When you are bored, just sing along to your favorite songs!

     Have you ever been disappionted when you cannot buy something you really want but do not need?  Or when you simply know you have to have that piece of jewelry?  Well, maybe you don't.  Maybe today when you look at something you think you need, say no.  We all have more stuff then we can really handle.  I mean, do we really need to have three iPod's?  Can't we just be satisfied with one? 
     With so many stores and little shops available, we have endless things to purchase.  America wants you to buy the new product, the lastest techology, and whatever else they have to sell! 
    We should appriciate all we have!  We all have much more then we truely need!  Be thankful and grateful for all you have on this day!  Happy Easter!

Friends Matter

     Friends are such an important part of your life.  They give you support and confidence when you need it.  Even on those tough days, your best friend is always there for you.  Friends matter to us.  When your sad or just not feeling good, your best friend is just a call away.
     Without a best friend, loneliness can creep it's way in.  Friends are really so important in your life.  There are your study buddy, helping you with your homework when you just cannot think anymore.  They are your texting teammate, chatting with you about funny things that only you and your friend will understand.  They are special to you.
Friends matter to us.
