Merry CHRISTmas!

All the excitement  and gifts/stockings, the things we've wanted, the things we got, the dinner and the family, the desserts and the activities. The boxing day sales on the next day. With all these things in mind, we can forget the true meaning of Christmas, or we might remember, but it is not...

What Are You Doing?

What are you doing? Are your actions that you're performing reaching out to people or pushing them further away from God?  Sometimes, I find myself so full of the Holy Spirit that I just want that person that I'm preaching to, to get to know the Lord and what he has done for them. I get all these Christian songs, that relate to their past life that haunt them, that tell them how to find...

We Are Like Robots(Wandering our focus away from God)

Lately, I have been busy with school and tests, and exams are coming up. By this time of year the teachers are cramming all the projects and assignments before the holiday and we just want to get them done before the break. I have been stressed out and focusing on school that I had forgotten what...

Sidewalk Prophets - You Love Me Anyway

This song always touches my heart and it actually makes me think. "It's True." We were the cause for the death of Christ, but we would've suffered in His spot if he hadn't loved us so very much, enough to die for us. He may be a total stranger to us, but we aren't strangers to Him. Imagine dying for someone who doesn't even acknowledge you ever existed or dying for someone who despises you. That's...

50 Days in the Old Testament

I'm starting a new challenge, I found it in the back of my Bible. I noticed that my knowledge of the Old Testament was little, I only knew a few details of the main events that occurred in the Old Testament. In my Bible it gives me a few passages to read from each of the books in the Old Testament each day. I decided that I was going to share my notes from each day with you. Day 1- Genesis 1:1 -...

Josh Wilson - I Refuse

I was just watching this music video. It touched my heart, I have been oblivious to many things and acted as if I hadn't noticed that that person had been hurting or that even my friends needed a hand sometimes, I would be too lazy to help and when my turn came, needing for help, I didn't take time and think that they were being kind and gracious to me. http://youtu.be/6B1Lv8k5pEc Sorry,  this...

Loving others (Behind the Scenes)

I had just started my first year of high school a couple of months ago with excitement and anxiousness. Not knowing what I was going to face, whether God was going to use me or use others to help me grow strong in character, what adventures he might bring upon me and what troubles and stresses I might go through. All these thoughts were running through my head as I took my first step into the building...

Verses of Love

Love is one of the most important things in our lives; that we show love to others. “I give you a new command: Love each other. You must love each other as I have loved you. (John 13:34 NCV) 1. Do not love the world or the things in the world. If you love the world, the love of the Father is not in you. (1 John 2:15 NCV) 2. Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous, it does not brag, and it...

Are Churches Trying to Keep People from attending or Are they Trying to Attract Them?

I have heard many stories in which people just stopped going to church because they didn't feel accepted; whether it was because they were bullied in church or if it was because the church didn't allow them to enter because of a particular reason. I think the church should accept and show love to others even if we don't agree with them. We just lost a life we could've saved by not welcoming them....

He Has Put His Angels In Charge Of You To Watch Over You

He has put his angels in charge of you to watch over you wherever you go. They will catch you in their hands so that you will not hit your foot on a rock. You will walk on lions and cobras; you will step on strong lions and snakes. The Lord says, "Whoever loves me, I will save. I will protect those who know me. They will call to me, and i will answer them. I will be with them in trouble; I will...

Don't let the devil hinder you, instead stand up to him and show that you are strong and that the Lord's on your side. If there's someone that's hurting you or bullying you, to show them that you can't be easily bruised you have to show that you are strong. With the Lord on your side, strength, wisdom, happiness, and peace are also on your side. They may not stop hurting you, but there is someone...

What Do You Do When You Feel Confused, Sad, Mad, or just about anything?

I love to sing and sometimes it just helps me calm down. Whenever I'm just so sorry about something that I did that would displease the Lord and my parents I try to find a song that would help me calm down and get rid of my guilt. The song that always works and is one of my favourites is called "Who Am I". It talks about how lucky we are that even though we're far from perfect, God still acknowledges...

Troubles on the Road of Life

The road of life for a Christian will definitely be a challenge but those challenges will have outcome solutions and even the fulfillment of God's plan for us but the hardest thing to get through on the road of life aren't the potholes or the mammoth bumps, the hardest thing on the road of life is the way you react to those potholes or mammoth bumps.

The Power of Prayer

Set time aside to pray each day, and really pray from your heart. Talk to the Lord about your problems and concerns; what makes you happy, and what troubles you. God will answer even your smallest request and will give you happiness even if your plan does not line with his. Whatever decision God makes it will be the best for you.  If you do not understand his plan for your life and are confused...

An Athieistic View

Let me ask this question: Do you agree that if there were no Christians and no God then there wouldn't be any Atheists? So without God, there wouldn't be any Atheists. They use the laws of logic but do not know who created them. Our God created them and gave them a mind and a brain and with that brain...

WWJD? (What Would Jesus Do?)

A good tree does not produce bad fruit, nor does a bad tree produce good fruit. Each tree is known by its own fruit. People don't gather figs from thornbushes, and they don't get grapes from bushes. Good people bring good things out of the good they stored in their hearts. But evil people bring evil things out of the evil they stored in their hearts. People speak the things that are in their hearts. Luke...

A Bush in the Desert
