  • TASTE AND TRUST

    "O taste and see that the Lord is good." Psalm 34:8

    He is good. Trust in Him. Know that all is well. Say "God is good. God is good." Just leave in His Hands the present and the future, knowing only that He is good. He can bring order out of chaos, good out of evil, peace out of turmoil. God is good. I and My Father are One. One in desire to do good. For God to do good to His children is for Him to Share His goodness with them. God is good, anxious to share His goodness, and good things, with you, and He will do this.                                  Trust and be not afraid. (God Calling; A.J. Russell)

     

    Can you not feel the yearning Love of the Father? He is amazing. We are to leave the troubles of now and the worries of tommorow in His hands, but what of the past? We are to let go. The wrongs of the past are forgotten by the Father, and we allow satan to steal this victory, this gift of inner peace, by remembering. Let it go. Jesus is our gift of life; He is the daily bread; He is the Word made flesh, "O taste and see that the Lord is good." Taste the Word. Every little bit inspires, uplifts, and encourages. It saves you a little every day without notice. If you are to look back, don't dwell on your shortcomings but see the progress, slow steady progress. It is the meaning of Life. Desire more. Pray for more.Your possibilities in prayer are imeasurable, pray for Faith, pray for Desire, pray for Passion, pray for Motivation. And watch. You will not be dissapointed.        Tia

    This is it!

    hey guys! my life has been hectic this last couple of days what with the getting prepared for college and the gettin a car! but those are all good things i guess... Well i have been pondering something for the past couple of hours, idk if you've seen the movie Coach Carter, but that movie was bomb! any ways the thing i was thinkin on is about something one of the basketball players said when the coach had decided to quit. idk the quote word for word but i'll get it one of these days because it spoke to my heart. now the coach along with all of his mentoring methods and building up of these kids would randomly look them in the eye and ask "What is your deepest fear..."? and then let them go. well finally one of these young men had an answer; it was a very inquisitive answer too... Too bad i don't have that dang quote, but i can give you the jist of it. he said that our deepest fear is not of failure but success... of being someone who would stand out, we fly under the radar unnoticed just to ensure that we don't upset others for being average, but if we shine, that in turn allows others to follow, it gives them the ok to be successful too...  how many of us out there have big dreams? how many of us know our own full potential? can u be doing better? why aren't we? who would we be offending? why is it so rare for a person to reach his dreams?  it should be common why are we allowing mediocrity to rule us and take our lives? we should own our lives, technically the last time i checked they were ours! we should dominate! and own life whats holding u back? whatever it is defeat it! if its more than one thing start with one thing at a time and it will get done just like homework. i think average is a tragedy what are we showing kids we are there example what message does that send them? what do they have to expect from life? do they even know they can contribute positively in this universe? i'm askin a lot of questions but i don't need answers, just change... i hope and believe i will see it in this generation in all generations the tragedy needs 2 end. and it starts with us.

  • ok ive never done a blog so bare with me... but i guess i'll share with you about my walk with God or at least about my progression so far. i went to the Tulsa Citadel today and interrupted the bible study lol but i'm glad we did because everything they said had to do with things we've discussed at church or things i've read on my own bible time and i learned a great deal. they discussed the importance of prayer and bible time; not only that but personal prayer and bible time, about going into your personal closet and having your one on one between you and jesus. ive never fully understood the importance of that, untill a very good friend of mine walked into my life with full pride in his "im the rightousness of christ,the head and not the tail, above and not beneath, any weapon formed against me shall not prosper and i shall not be defeated by all the wiles of satan!!" he loves proclaiming his authority in christ. and at a time in my life where i was spiritually lost and emotionaly depressed we talked on the phone about church and he explained that i was suffering and that was ok so i asked him to pray for me and after he did he said something i will never forget. "God says its time for him to spend time with you now." i had never felt love like that from God before. when i think about God the crucifixion always comes to my mind "for God so loved the world he gave his only son that i might believe and have life" which is wonderful but i just get used to it and it loses its meaning, its deepness ya no? that night i felt that God was an actual idk i feel like saying person but an actual being desiring my time and attention. when we let things distract us from reading our bibles or talking to God u no thru prayer, it hurts. we don't feel it when we do it because obviously WE are distracted but we all know how it feels to be ignored... to not talk to a friend in a couple of days maybe even a couple of weeks. what do we do when we talk again after all that time, we catch back up on things we figure out whats happened since we talked last then when were all caught up we start the relationship back up and our friendship is renewed and back to normal. for now. its the same with God he is not telling you READ YOUR BIBLES EVERY DAY OR GO TO HELL!!! he is pleadingly asking please call me, talk to me because i love you. how can u say no to that? when you think that denying your time to God hurts him because he likes you so much, that he wants your attention wouldn't u so give it to him? i mean we should be the ones trying to be worthy of his time! but no, what do all the songs say? you are worthy jesus you are worthy of my time, why do we even need to be reminded? of course God is more worthy of my time then tv, then books, then getting ready for my day. you shouldn't be ready for your day untill you've acknowledged your saviors existance, through prayer or reading a couple verses from your bible. satan whispers it doesnt even matter what will it even change? maybe nothing ,but God likes it, and i would love to please him. so there ya go. my answer, i will sacrifice holding off brushin my teeth and gettin dressed in the morning just 20 minutes to read a few verses, give my time i'm not sayin ur gona feel somethin every time but u have the knowledge that it makes God happy and as a result he blesses me with happines. for some reason all my days that i take time out for bible study seem to end so much better. i honestly think to myself why am i so happy? my day could have even been stressful! but ill think that and remember the first thing i did and it dawns on me that ive been blessed. i love jesus he is wonderful and i no ive only just reached the surface of his love and i can't wait to learn more!!!!

  • Life

    What goes up may never come down,

    What you thought was a square may turn out to be round,

    If you hear lauhgter with your heart and see screams

    Then you just might know that nothing is what it seems.
