Compassion...

August 03 2005
So I thought I'd finally update! lol! And let ya'll know that DTS called! They've accepted me into the Compassion focus!! And when the man told me that I squealed with excitement and told him, "I'm SO EXCITED!!" And he just laughed at me and was glad I was so happy about it! They said they had looked over my application, or something and saw I was interested in working with children...funny thing I don't remember writting anything about children! *Course, I don't remember a whole lotta stuff* lol!! But yes, my friends, I'm headed to South East Asia to work with the poor, needy, and children!! And I couldn't be happier about where God has placed me to go!! I can only pray that I can give these children the love and comfort they need, and introduce them to the eternial love and comfort!! Just pray for strength and an open heart! Pray that those peoples hearts will be open! And pray for safety! Course I don't know exactly what part of South East Asia I'm headed to, I'll find that out when I get there!! But anyways, beautiful people, I'm gonna go!! Take care and I hope ya'll have a WONDERFUL day!!!

Oh boys.......

July 24 2005
lol, I know this is gonna sound weird, but I felt the call to write on here and encourage ya'll!! lol! Weird comin' from a girl, huh!? But I know alot of the times, I do get on here and encourage girls and talk about girl things! But I felt it was time to say something to ya'll! And I know I'm not a guy, so I dont' really know stuff that ya'll go through, but don't let me not being a male tune you out to what I want to say to ya'll!! :) Anyways...as I drove home today from lunch...it dawns on me that guys struggle through hard times and stuff just like women do! I bet you're saying,"No joke...I know that!" But hear me out...it finally hits home!! Not only do women hide from things in this world...men do too! As men, ya'll hide behind your strength!! Am I wrong, cuz if so...let me know! But as women, we hide our hearts...afraid to let anyone hurt us anymore! But as men, I believe ya'lls strength is what keeps ya'll safe!! Ya'll feel that you have to come accross as strong, successful men....and if not ya'll are failing or being to soft! I realized how much pressure ya'll have on ya'll! And it's hard because you need to have control on things!! (Women do this too, and I'm sure that you guys are saying "Amen to that!" as I am writting this! lol) But for guys...I think that your control on things comes from a different side then womens...sure control is control, but women want control on situations...men want control on life! Ya'll need to know that things will fall into place! You need to know that you can support yourself....and one day a wife and family! You need to know that you've been successful!! And ya'll feel if you don't have a grip on these things...that again you've failed...and that's hard and stressful on ya'll! Women, I think it's very important we let these men, our brothers, know how important they are! Ya'll play a BIG role in God's story, men!! And as sisters, we need to help our brothers with confidence!! Because I'm sure as a man...it's hard to keep that!! But guys...I want to encourage you to NOT hide behind your strength and success!! Let go of control! (girls you too!!) Don't be afraid to show your heart men!! God did give you one of those!!! lol! I know you hear that from women all the time! "They need more emotions...blah, blah, blah...nag, nag, nag!" Women, realize men aren't made to show emotions LIKE US!! But men, that also doesn't give you the excuse to not show any at all...that's hiding behind your strength! I think that God has to soften hearts into that! Allow God to do so! Because men...Jesus was a strong man....but He did show emotions! He showed love, He cared for people, He showed compassion...but He was strong!! Showing emotion doesn't always mean, crying and being all excited and jumping up and down at things, like girls!! lol!! It's loving on people and not being afraid to do so! It's being willing to open up and let yourselves be healed...and not keeping it inside to "deal with it on your own"! It's showing that you care and you're willing to take time to encourage and listen!! I think real strength is shown when a man is willing to put himself on the line...and open up about things!! Don't try to be perfect and put on a face....things in life do go wrong!! (And I'm talking to girls, and myself as well in all this!) I'm not trying to sit here and call out guys by any means...please don't take it that way!! I'm saying it's ok....don't be afraid to be the man God has made you to be!! And remember God has put hearts in each of you men....not just strength!! Ya'll are important...and just as men need women....women DO need men!! Ya'll play a very important role...and don't let the stress of strength and success bring you down from being that man!! Thank you so much to all my guy friends.......for everything!! Ya'll mean the world to me!! And if it wasn't for men...I wouldn't know what to do! Because ya'll have every imporant qulities of God!!! Be men of God!! And let God change ya'lls life...let Him take control! Depend on His strength, and not your own!!
....anyways!! Those are just my thoughts and me wanting to encourage ya'll!! Sorry if that's not how it is, if so let me know ;) lol!!! But anyways..today's been a great day...VERY HOTT!!! lol!! I think I might go for a swim! lol!!! But anyways...if ya'll didn't hear Bro. Dean's message today....IT WAS GREAT!! Ask me if ya wanna know!!! It was about judgement...go figure a chruch that preachs on judgement! lol! But this was a different type of sermon! It was very very good! And Dean is such a wise man! Wow!!! Anyways!! Ya'll take care! Stay strong and safe!! Love ya'll!!

On the edge of my seat with excitement!!!

July 20 2005

So I get a call today saying DTS will be a bit different this year, and they give me six different places I could possibly go!! And I give the man my top to choices...where I have a heart to go! And the first two oppions, made my heart leap for joy!!! A China focus and the other, which would be a real life changing and oh my gosh amazing....and totally me.....a Compassion outreach!!!! AHHHHH!! lol!! This outreach is in South East Asia and around that area and it deals with the poor, needy, and.....children at risk!!! ASIANS!!!! AND CHILDREN!!!!! It's like a dream come true!!! lol!!!! I know I'm so crazy!! But man....I can't wait to go and wrap my arms around these kids!!! :D I can't wait to let my heart pour out on them and do anything and everything for them!!!! I'm so excited!!! Well anyways...thought I'd share!!! :D Take care...I love ya'll!!!

"Every woman was once a little girl. And every little girl holds in her heart her most precious dreams. She longs to be swept up into a romance, to play an irreplaceable role in a great adventure, to BE the Beauty of the story. Those desires are far more than child's play. They are the secret to the feminine heart.
And yet - how many women do you know who ever find that life? As the years pass by, the heart of a women gets pushed aside, wounded, buried. She finds no romance except in novels, no adventure except on television, and she doubts very much that she will ever be the Beauty in any tale.
Most women think they have to settle for a life of efficiency and duty, chores and errands, striving to be the women they "ought" to be but often feeling they have failed. Sadly, too many messages for Christian women add to the pressure. "Do these ten things, and you will be a godly woman." The effect has not been good on the feminine soul.
But her heart is still there. Sometimes when she watches a movie, sometimes in the wee hours of the night, her heart begins to speak again. A thirst rises within her to find the life she was meant to live - the life she dreamed of as a little girl.
The message of Captivating is this: Your heart matters more than anything else in all creation. The desires you had as a little girl and the longings you still feel as a woman - they are telling you of the life God created you to live. He offers to come now as the Hero of your story, to rescue your heart and release you to live as a fully alive and feminine woman. A woman who is truly captivating."

...This is off the back of the book Captivating, of course! I'm sorry that my last "blogs" are on this book, and boys I'm sorry if all I talk about is women and our hearts..and mushy stuff! I'm not a girl who is trying to be all hard-core...women rights, kinda thing! God has laid a passion on my heart for women! Girls, I'm encouraging you....if you can, read this book!!!! It's amazing!!! And guys, if you'd like one of the author's of this book is John Eldredge and he wrote Wild at Heart! And that book is for men!! But talk about changing your heart and opening your eyes!! We are wounded women....I'd love for our generation of women to realize this and allow God to change our hearts!! For us to become healed, women of God and be sure of who we are and who God has made us!! Wow, wouldn't it be awesome?! So that one day when we have little girls of our own....we'll know how to help protect their hearts!! For them to grow up and know they are captivating and beautiful!! To me...that'd be awesome!! My prayer for women is that God would change our hearts! That He would heal them up! That we would realize how beautiful and presious we are!! Man, I can't even describe that passion that God has laid on my heart to inform women that WE ARE ALL beautiful!! Hummmmm....it's so easy to say this, and so easy to read something that encourages us about this kinda stuff....but it's another story when we wake up and try to believe it and remember it throughout the day, isn't it!? Something I've realized lately.....God's trying to get through to women...I've talked to several of my friends that are girls this week....and they all have something in comman! "My heart is wounded...I am wounded from the past.....I know God is trying to heal me!" (This includes myself!) ...God, may you heal up your daughters hearts...we are hurt and broken! I pray you come to our rescue!! I LOVE YOU!!!!
Well anyways...thought I'd feel ya'll in on something God laid on my heart! Not much happen today...I got my passport info sent off, should get it first week of Sept.!!! It's exciting to think in 10 weeks...my life will be turned upside down!! YAY!! I have ready the money I have to send off to make DTS a set in stone thing! lol! And!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol!!! I got this cd, which I shouldn't have because I need to SAVE my money...course I really don't know the meaning of the word...lol! But I got this cd with the song I shall someday get married to, on it!! lol! I know what your thinking...you're shaking your head and thinking, "Amber....hunny-child, you have a while!" That's right I do...but so what!! Let me be the girly-girl God made me to be! :D Well I'm goin' to bed!! Night night...sweetdreamz!!

*Cherished One*

July 16 2005
Carrie woke on her sixth birthday to the sound of singing. She knew instantly that it was her birthday, her very own day. She opened her eyes to discover that balloons had been tied all around her bed - a canopy. The celebration had begun. Her mom was standing by her bedside, holding a coffee cake with a lit candle in it, and her dad was there, too, and both of them were singing, "Haaappy Biiirthdaaay tooo youuuu!" Oh, unhindered joy! Squeals of delight, kisses, hugs, and "hoorays!" welcomed her into this day - just as she had been welcomed into the world six years earlier. Her father whispered to his "Little Princess" that he loved her. Her mother reminded her again of how happy she was to have such a wonderful daughter.
There was no doubt about it - this little girl was delighted in.
Life for Carrie was closer to life as God meant it to be for every little girl. She KNEW that her father cherished her. She was his princess. He was her knight in shining armor. He wanted to spend time with her. Carrie KNEW her mother loved her and wanted her. Hers was a world where her father protected her, her mother nurtured her, and she was enjoyed. This is the soil a girl's soul was meant to grow in; this was the garden her young heart was meant to flourish within. Every little girl should be so loved, so welcomed - seen, known, treasured. From this place she can become a strong and beautiful and confident woman.
If only that was how it was for all of us.
---John & Stasi Eldredge, Captivating

Wow, I have to say when I read this....this brought tears to my eyes!!! Even more so when I read, "She knew that her father cherished her. She was his princess." When I read that, I thought....wow....God....King of Kings....CHERISHES......me! Let that sink in!!!! He cherishes you! Say this aloud and fill in your name....I, ____, am CHERISHED by the Almighty! WOW!!! (and that's not just for girls...guys goes for you too! lol...I dont' wanna leave ya'll out!!) But for girls...this story is the kinda love we look for! We are so big on being accepted, loved, wanted, CHERISHED, and DELIGHTED in!!! I think that's why so many girls are so longing for love is because the don't know or understand that someone does love them that way! If they only knew, or if we could only always remember that!!! Girls....there is a love for us beyond words...an EVERLASTING love!!!! An AMAZING, adventures......LOVE!!!! I'm so blessed and excited that God has called me out to find out about it! But He's not only called me, He's called all of us.....even you! Who's willing to take an adventure with me!?

Note From God to His Daughters

July 14 2005
Dear Daughter,
I wish you could see yourself the way I see you. You are beautiful from the inside out. I love it when you smile and share your joy with others.
You are talented. I'm glad you notice and cherish all I have given you. It makes me smile when I see you blessing others with the talents I have given you.
I designed you especially to bring My Love into this world. I made you just the way you are for special reasons. It is such a joy to watch you grow, mature, and discover your gifts. You are My own daughter, My special creation, My unique treasure.
Always remember that I made you in My own image. That means YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL, kind, loving, caring, giving, and full of many gifts.
Continue to ask for My direction as I show you how to use your time, treasure, and talents. Be happy and know that I made a treasure when I made you.
I Love you forever,
Your heavenly Father

........ya'll read that again.....soak it up....you are a treasure to God!!! WOW!! If nothing has made you smile or happy today, may that light up your face and make your heart feel as if it were dancing!! :D I love ya'll! Take care and Stay Strong!!

I'm home!!!!!!

July 09 2005
I'm home and I had a blast!!!! Anyone miss me!? lol!! jk! ;) love ya'll lots!! Also... I know this will be long, but I'd like to share with ya'll something I read outta the book Captivating:
God's Heart For Relationship
The vast desire and capacity a woman has for intimate relationships tells us of God's vast desire and capacity for intimate relationships. In fact, this may be the most important thing we ever learn about God- that he yearns for relationship with us. "Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God" (John 17:3). The whole story of the Bible is a love story between God and his people. He yearns for us. He cares. He has a tender heart. (Verses) Isa. 49:14-15,18; Jer. 24:7; Matt. 23:37.
What a comfort to know that this universe we live in is relational at its core, that our God is a tenderhearted God who yearns for relationship with us. If you have any doubt about that, simply look at the message he sent us in Woman. Amazing. Not only does God long for us, but he longs to be loved by us. Oh, how we've missed this. How many of you see God as longing to be loved by you? We see him as strong and powerful, but not as needing us, vulnerable to us, yearning to be desired. But as I wrote in Wild at Heart, "After years of hearing the heart-cry of women, I am convinced beyond a doubt of this: God wants to be loved. He wants to be a priority to someone. How oculd we have missed this? From cover to cover, from beginning to end, the cry of God's heart is, "Why won't you choose me?" It is amazing to me how humble, how vulnerable God is on this point. "You will find me," says the Lord,"when you seek me with all your heart" (Jer. 29:13) In other words, "Look for me, pursue me- I want you to pursue me." Amazing. As Tozer says," God waits to be wanted."
Can there be any doubt that God wants to be sought after? The first and greatest of all commands is to love him (Mark 12:29-30, Matt. 22:36-38) He wants us to love him. To seek him with all our hears. A woman longs to be sought after, too, with the whole heart of her pursuer. God longs to be desired. Just as a woman longs to be desired. This is not some weakness or insecurity of the part of a woman, that deep yearing to be desired. "Take me for longing," Alison Krauss sings,"or leave me behind." God feels the same way. Remember the story of Martha and Mary? Mary chose God, and Jesus said that that is what he wanted. "Mary has chosen what is better" (Luke 10:42) She chose me.
Life changes dramatically when romance comes into our lives. Christianity changes dramatically when we discover that it, too, is a great romance. That God yearns to share a life of beauty, intimacy, and adventure with us. "I have loved you with an EVERLASTING love" (Jer. 31:3). This whole world was made for romance- the rivers and the glens, the meadows and beaches. Flowers, music, a kiss. But we have a way of forgetting all that, losing ouselves in work and worry. Eve- God's message to the world in feminine form- invites us to romance. Through her, God makes romance a priority of the universe. So God endows Woman with certain qualities that are essential to relationship, qualities that speak of God. She is inviting. She is vulnerable. She is tender. She embodies mercy. She is also fierce and fiercely devoted. As the old saying goes, " Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." That's just how God acts when he isn't chosen. "I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God who will not share your affection with any other god!" (Ex. 20:5 NLT). A woman's righteous jealousy speaks of the jealousy of God for us. Tender and inviting, intimate and alluring, fiercely devoted. Oh yes, our God has a passionate, romantic heart. Just look at Eve.
*Ya'll...............all I can say is WOW!!!! I'm amazed to see how God is constinlty teaching me things and having me gain a deeper understanding!! PRAISE GOD!!! God.....I want to be fiercely devoted to you!!! And you alone!! God you're the only one who can make my heart skip a beat and have me stop breathing all at the same time!! So many times have I stood in awe of you...and to me that's the best place in the world!! In front of you....amazed at all You are!!! Many my heart only belong to you!! May I choose you!! And forever hang on to that!! I love you!! Thank you!!.......Ya'll who will you choose?! A God who is always trying to woe you!? A God that is hopelessly romantic and knows the deepest desires of your heart...who holds on and PROTECTS (doesn't destory) your dreams!? Or something that will not last...to only leave you brokenhearted?! That's another awesome thing about God....even if you choose the other...He still waits for you to choose Him! And He's there placing your brokenheart back together!! Wow....HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD!!!

I wanna be beautiful......

June 25 2005
Well, I just got done reading "my heart" aka Hope's phusebox site, and the song that she post is one of the best songs for a girl to hear!! It's by Bethany Dillon and it's called Beautiful! But it's an awesome song of how we try to be outwardly beautiful by the world's standards...but she fails! And she's tired! She wants to try a new kind of beauty! And that's the beauty that she recieve from Christ!!
I was talking to Michael last night, and we got on the subject of how girls/women present themselves! How we dress, how we flirt, how we get guys attention and how we keep their attention...how we do WHATEVER we as girls do! And something that Jared Herd...a guy, girls.....said at BigStuf camp was, "Girls are so so valuable(sp)!! And if a guy doesn't accept you.....he doesn't derserve you!" Amen to what he says!! Girls.....you mean so much more than that!!! I asked Michael last night if he knew why girls did what they did, he kinda did, but not really! Which I think most guys don't, maybe not all but most! And I told him, because that's what the world tells us how we should look to be beautiful! We see these women, small, beautiful, and they get men's attention! And as girls, attention is very big to us!! We might not act like it, but it is! And how else is a girl who doesn't know that she's worth something, doesn't know what God thinks of her....how else is she suppose to be beautiful! And I think that's way I love to talk to girls around my age so much! I've been there! I've felt exactly how girls feel! I think every girl has!!! I'm not saying girls, to stop wearing make-up, to put on sweat-pants and a sweat-shirt....to never let a guy pay you any attention! All I'm saying is that you....yes, you....are beautiful just the way you are! God didn't make a mistake when He made you! Do you think that a God that paints the sky a different way everyday could make a mistake! A God so creative could do such a thing!? If you do, why don't you ask Him and talk to Him about that! He'd love for you to know the REAL Him! Not the one that are lies about Him! Girls...I know it's hard....we fight and fight to be beautiful outside!! But can anyone agree with me that the world will never be happy with the way you are?! You have to keep changing with how the world changes! And no one will ever be happy enough with the way you are!! Why make yourself tired?! I know what your thinkin'.....well how else am I suppose to get someone!! I've gotta hold there attention! And all I have to say to that is.....well, I hope someday you'll realize that if you have to hold his attention with the way your body looks....he's not good enough for you! You're a treasure....find a guy that'll treat you like one! They are out there! I promise!! Find a guy that would think your beautiful with no make-up and in sweat-pant and sweat-shirt! That loves you at your lowest of lows and when you look you're worst! Someone that sees and loves you for how you are in the inside!! That's the kinda man you wanna wait for!! And I know that all girls want a guy like this....but sometimes it's hard to let go of what you have! Let go girls.........fall in love with the perfect man.....Jesus! The one who never says the wrong things, does the wrong things and is always ready to talk! That's another thing! Don't hold guys to being perfect...I know I've done that! They aren't! They make mistakes just like us!! If you hold them to that...your in for a big letdown! But God will send you someone when the timing is perfect....are you willing to wait?!

Let what we do in here, fill the streets out there....Let us dance for YOU!

June 22 2005
"I'm madly in love with You, yes I'm madly in love with You..........Let what we do in here fill the streets out there.....Let us DANCE FOR YOU, let us DANCE FOR YOU!"

I love this song!!! Why? I dunno! Just do, I suppose! I love having this image of us going out into the streets and dancing for Jesus! Like this big party! Hey here's an awesome thought......all the christians dancing around, drawing peoples attention, and having people drawin in to join! Now, not literly! Just an image! That our lives as christian should be this big dance for Jesus! A party for Him! Wow! Maybe this only makes sense to me...oh well! So I haven't been up to much lately! The love of my life came over the other night cuz it was her birthday! That would be the famous Lauren Nicdao!!!! And it was fun! At least for me! (sorry babe, I wish I could've done more for ya!) :D I've been working a lot, which is all good and well because I'm very thankful for them being so helpful and willing to make sure I go to YWAM! By the way...ya'll pray for the whole YWAM thing, I'll write and explain more later about all of this, but God has opened a door for me to either go to the DTS in Kona or in Samoa! And I'm just trying to hear God's voice in where He's taking me! And pray that my parents would have a peace to the place I'm suppose to go! And that God will speak to them as well!
Well kids....I'm gonna go! Hope all is well with ya'll! Take Care and stay strong!! I love ya'll!!!

James 1:2-4
"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trails of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything."
Hewbrews 10:35-39
"So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. For in just a very little while, 'He who is coming will come and will not delay. But my righteous one will live by faith. And if he shrinks back, I will not be pleased with him.' But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe and are saved."

PRAISE THE ONE........

"Oh Praise the One, who paid my debt. And raised this life up from the dead!!"

BIGSTUF.......Illusions

June 15 2005
WOW!!!! Is all I have to say! What an amazing past 5 days! First, it was ok but I kinda wanted to be home, and I missed my friends! But then God changes the week around! I believe He gave me a taste of how YWAM will be for me! And I can't wait! This week was good for me to be reminded of things and to take a new look and a deeper understanding on some things! Course, I'm probably gonna have to read back over my notes and all, because that was alot stuff to take in, and I want to soak it all up and understand it all! This week we talked about Illusions and the illusions of life! One thing Louie Giglio said was something like this..."Are you living in the illusion of life that life is about you!? Because it's not! But don't worry, we all have!" And it was just so so cool to hear what he had to say! Another thing he was talking about was you can do anything you want! You want to be a docter? Guess what..you're in! You want to be a singer? Guess what...go for it! You want to get married and have kids some day!? Ok!! BUT in EVERYTHING YOU DO....do IT in Jesus Christ name! And for His glory and honor! God's not saying that in order for Him to be pleased with you that you have to be poor, go to distant lands and live in a hut, to throw away all your dreams, and that you can't have fun! SHOOT....you should've been at BigStuf with us Tues night!!!!! Christians, God-followers....CAN have FUN!!! Shoot! We were dancin' and havin' fun like no tomorrow in Jesus name! As for the distant lands and being poor and throwing away your dreams! God's not about that! Yes, some He calls over seas! But you can do missions in being a doctor, being a singer, being a parent, etc!! And as for your dreams....God's only asking you to trust Him with them! He's asking you if you trust Him, and believe that He knows what you want and knows what's right for you! This week was so amazing! Course another awesome point that Louie got accross was how some people ask..."Well what about in our home town...we need people sharing God's word there too!" True....but as Louie said, "Don't you think there's enough people in your town to share that with those people!?" He said, "If all the Christians we had in our towns would share Christ with the people at the school, work, etc. by the end of the day....the town would know!" But as Christians we don't do that! And course, God has called people to live in TN or where ever to do missions, but not everyone! Some people say, "Well we need to get our country right first before we go and help others!" When will our country ever be good enough?! When will the U.S. ever be "perfect" enough!? It's not happening! So why wait around on something that won't happen!? Why not, as christians go to wherever God leads us!? Shoot, I'm still tryin' to figure out why I question God where He wants me! But I guess we all come accross that in our lives! I dunno, I guess all I can say is that God was def. trying to wake up about 1,500 people these past 5 days, to who He is and what He has for us! It was amazing! And I encourage everyone that if you ever get the chance to go to BigStuf...please go! Night.....I love you all....

....bring on the rain

June 07 2005
Ya'll wanna hear something cool! And one thing that might be small to some, but I think that's really cool cuz it was a God-thing! Well y/d i was mownin' the lawn...i'm trying to raise money for YWAM! But anyways! And it was pretty durn hot! and i was like, "Man, God, bring on the rain! it's hot and i'm dyin' out here!" No more than 5 min.'s later, i was walking to do the back yard, i felt a rain drop on my forhead! then i heard thunder and it started to rain!!!!! i pushed the mower under the carport thingy....went and layed down on the ground, and thanked God as I let the rain hit my face! To me....that was awesome!! God's always doin' some awesome things!!! I love Him so so much! And ya'll if ya'll could be praying for me, cuz i'm starting to miss my friends pretty bad! and though they are all doin' awesome Jesus things! and sharing the word, sometimes I still miss them! But i wouldn't want them doin' anything else!!

Dreaming..........

June 05 2005
Do you ever find yourself day dreaming all the time?! I do it all the time! Last night, I was on my way home from the movies, I was riding in the back of the car.........with the window down and the summer breeze blowing in my face! *I love those kinda nights* And I just found myself dreaming and thinking of all the stuff God has in store for me, not only me, but promises that He makes to each and every one of us! God has so much in store! And it's an exciting plan....if I will just lay it all down, trust Him, and follow WHEREVER He might lead! Hummmmmmmmmmm....it's a very interesting thought! Where God might place me in a year or two from now! What new surprises He has in store! Even though I'm excited to know about them, I also know that I can't live in a dream and waste my life living for the future! I gotta live for today! And make the best for what God has for me right now! To soak it up and have fun! Right now God has so much stuff in store for me and later, on His timing, everything will fall into place! Hummmmmmmm.......what a GREAT and AWESOME God we have..........
(I thought I'd add a song on here! to make this even longer! lol!! anyways...this is to my one and only, my hero, my best friend, my husband, my love, my Savior.....Jesus! ;)
..........Wonderful Savior, my heart belongs to Thee. I will remember, always the blood You shed for me. Wonderful Savior my heart will know Your way, so let me embrace You always..as I walk this earth. Be blessed, be loved, be lifted high. Be treasured here, be glorified. I owe my life to You my Lord, Here I am!........Beautiful Jesus, how may I bless your heart? Knees to the earth, I bow down, to everything You are! Beauiful Jesus, You are my only way. So I will embrace You, always, as I walk this earth. Be blessed, be loved, be lifted high. Be treasured here, be glorified! I owe my life to You my Lord, Here I am!.....Beautiful Jesus, how may I bless your heart? Knees to the earth, I bow down, to everything You are! Beautiful Jesus, You are my only way!
