"Happy New Year 2019 Here We Come"

Hello Everyone, And Happy New Year!! What does New Years Eve mean to you believers? Why is there even such a thing? It's not all about the ball dropping or New Years Eve parties, or staying up till med night kissing your girlfriend or boyfriend, Or going out to some bar gettting drunk like a hourse. New Years Eve is much more then that. New Years Eve is a time to reflect on what has happend in the past year or what God has done in your life. Philippines 3:12-15 Not that I have already obtained this or am already prefect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me His own. Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own but His. Forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Let thoese of us who are manture think this way, and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal that also to you. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, palns to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. This year as I look back so many things happend to me, I was hurting, I was sad, I was sacred, I was in fear that something bad should happen to me. There were so many deaths in our family. My baby borthers Ezekiel, and Zechariah, died I didn't even get to meet them I was so sad and upset that God had to take them away, but you know what? I know now that they are in a better place. My Aunt Erin, Uncle Jim, great Aunt Vivian, and great Uncle Jack died, Now my Dad has been fighting cancer this past summer and is still fighting cancer. But you know what? Through all the awful times, through the pain, through the hurt and through the fear, God has been so faithful and just,He is a just God and is always here for us when we need him most. I pray that this year is a better year for all of us.🙏 Good bye 2018! And Hello 2019! I am so ready for this year to be better by God's grace. Happy New Year once again.

Is God Enough?

Is God enough for you? This is a very important question. One that all Christians need to consider. Is God enough for you? Some of you may wonder what I mean by that question. Let me explain. Is God enough for you? Is He more important than your friends? Whatever popularity you may have? Your money? Your romantic relationships? Your family? Something I've been processing through recently, if I lost all these things, would God still be enough? Would I still be able to smile knowing God is in control? Would I still be able to find joy through the midst of trials? Would I still rely on God to give me everything I need? Because, you see, God is always enough. It's just a matter of whether we make Him enough for ourselves. Are you searching for happiness outside of God? Maybe you are searching for love and belonging inside the confines of a friendship, family, or a relationship. Maybe you're looking for happiness in money or popula...

Whom Do You Say That I Am?

"He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God." ~Matthew 16:15-16 KJV One of the most important questions in history. Whom do you say that I am? Imagine Jesus, standing in front of you asking you this question. What would you say? "Well Jesus, there's a lot of people who say You were a prophet or just a good person, even a good moral teacher. They say..." But whom do you say that I am? Who is Jesus? Was He just a good moral teacher or prophet? Did He come to earth to simply help people out? To help them with their problems? Or was He more than that? Your eternal destiny hinges on the way you answer this question. Our God is a personal God. He asks each of us individually to receive Him. He gives each of us the choice to decide if we're going to believe what's true or what's false. Because at the end of the day, He's still God regardless of wh...

Don't Be Afraid to Stand Out

Photo by Joshua Earle on Unsplash In our culture, there seems to be a lot of pressure to conform . You know, to fit in with everyone you're friends with, and only do what is 'culturally acceptable'. I find that there's a lot of pressure (shall we call it peer pressure ?), especially during the teen years. There's pressure to fit in - by getting into the cliques, by wearing "cool" clothes, and just by generally blending in with everyone around us. We want to be liked by our peers, and there's nothing wrong with that. But I'm here today to tell you: You don't have to conform. You don't have to be like everyone around you. You don't have to be the teenager who rebels, the guy who sleeps around, or the girl who goes to every single party. You don't have to be popular to be loved. Because that's what the culture says is cool. That's what the world around us is doing. You can rise above that. You can be so much mo...
