Prayer

1 John 5:14
And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:
I saw this verse in my church notebook yesterday, and I had an epiphany! I realized that I can change the view of praying for others! This verse says that if we pray for something and it is God’s will, it will be. If it is not God’s will to fulfill that request, then he will not give us a “yes.” He only says “no” when it is not part of his plan, and we have to trust his plan. We have to trust that God knows what is best for us. We have to pray for our good, but we cannot be selfish. When God says no, we cannot hate him for it. God says no for our good because he loves us! God knows what our life will lead to, and he knows how to give us a good life. Trust God and pray, but know that God will say “yes” if it is meant to be. if he say no, he might have something better in store for you!

Living Water

    For this whole week, I have carried my water with me wherever I go, but today I left it in the car.  I didn't realize I didn't have my water with me until I got to 2nd period, and I was mad at myself.  I was thirsty, and I really wanted my water bottle.  Many times throughout the day, I reached down to grab it and it wasn't in my backpack.  I was especially thirsty during lunch when I had nothing to drink.  You're probably reading this thinking I'm dumb for not going to the water fountain to get a drink, that would work right?  WRONG!  Every time I drink from the water fountains, I get a terrible headache, but it makes me nauseous, not in pain.  That may seem like an excuse, but I tell the truth. Everyday last year, I had P.E. first period.  When we were in the middle of an activity, I would go get a drink. I was fine, but every. single. day. I would get a headache towards the end of the school day. I just conn...

Random Wisdom

As I am looking through one of my used journals I took notes in during church services, I am finding wonderful bits of wisdom from the godly men that gave these lessons. A lot of them are from church meetings where the congregations of the church of Christ from NM, CO, TX, OK, AR, and maybe more, came together to be admonished, uplifted, and renewed with the word of our Father. I feel the sincerest need to share these sentences although I know not everybody will agree with them. I have learned, finally, that nothing happens when we want it, but only when and if God plans it. I couldn't convey this all in a tweet or on any other social media, unless I used my blog. After all, this is why I created it, to save you, help you, encourage you. I want to plant a seed that God can use to change you and your heart, soul, and most importantly, your eternity. These accumulate from many lessons, and I hope you look deeper into the verses behind each one. Now some of them may not have verses, a...

Hello world!

Hi! My name shall go unknown as of now. I have many thoughts taking residence in my head daily. I have thoughts I didn't even think I could have… until I start to write. Writing is my passion. I can write a page of words easy. The words flow easily and the meaning fills the paper. Writing is a gift from God. The easiest thing for me to write about is God! I want to share my thoughts with y’all. I want you to be able see what I see. I want to inspire through my writing. I want to show Jesus and God’s love for all through everything I do. And writing is the easiest way for me to do that! I hope you are inspired! not for me, but for God. Praying always, Jesusfreak
