He's there's, when we think no one else is

In life, we believe that no one is there to listen, when times get ruff, or if there is, we feel like they are tired of hearing the same thing over and over again even though it keeps occurring over and over again in our minds. 

In my daily life, I feel the same way. As if those who do listen, are wanting to hear new things, not topics mentioned in the past. 

I prayed to God, and asked Him if He would show me where I needed to study more in the Bible. He showed me that I needed to study Psalm, even though I had studied there before, there was places that I had just read over and never  really thought about the meaning. 

I started out in Psalm 139. A friend had mentioned Psalm 139 to me a few weeks before, and had read it aloud when I probably needed it the most. 

When she read it, I listened and found the true meaning of every word.

It's amazing that He knew before we was even on Earth, every word we would say and every action we would make. He has searched us, and knows us. 

In life we make so many mistakes and we know that we can't change the past, but, God can change our future for the better.

How I came to loving Jesus

Growing up, I had always believed in God, but had some doubt in Him. I was raised in church. Classic plays, the cute songs, and the Bible stories. Outside of church, my family always prayed before meals, and we had Bible story's read to us before we went to bed.


When I was about seven or eight, I remember me talking to my mom about being baptized. She quickly told our pastor at church, and he sat down with me and prayed with me that God would come into my life and change me. God kept trying to come into my life and change my life, but I was blocking him out, and soon I made my mind up that I wasn't "good enough" for God to change me.... That I had already hurt the world enough and that there was NO way to "Fix" me. So I gave up on Him.  

God kept trying to come into my life and change my life, but I was blocking him out, and soon I made my mind up that I wasn't "good enough" for God to change me....

In 2013, I decided that I wanted to follow the Lord, and I constantly prayed to God, hoping that he would give me another chance and that he would give me the wisdom needed  to ask Him into my Life. I asked Him to give me the courage to let Him in my life and to give me the hope to put my Faith and Trust in Him.  On August 25, 2013, I prayed to God that He would come into my life and to change me. I was tired of the old me, and I wanted to change how I lived my life.  That same day, I was baptized, and ever since that day I have had dramatic changes. That day, waters were stirred, and lives were changed.

My life changed from ignoring God to living a life "Jesus-filled."

But, there was a time in my life where, I didn't want my life anymore. I wanted to live my life on my own and I felt like I was slowly "loosing" my faith. I felt like I had let God down, and that what He had expected of me no longer mattered because I had already gave up on Him. Everyone told me that my faith was stronger than that, and that it would come through and end up back on top. And sure enough, it did. 

Today, I know that Jesus Christ is My Lord and Savior. God is my safe havenI know that I don't have to "earn" my way into heaven, because Jesus has already paid the price for me, by dying on the cross for me. I don't have to worry about not "fitting in", because God loves me even with all of my imperfections. He loves me no matter what. 

As a Christian, sometimes I feel overwhelmed by what I have to overcome in life. But my attitude quickly changes when I’m reminded that God desires us to live a life filled with His power. And I believe that we often miss out on what God has in store for us because we miss out on the power He has given us through His son Jesus. 

God's Power is unlimited, and He wants us to experience His power at work in our lives. Don't go another day living under the weight of your need. Seek God. Call on His Son Jesus Christ today. He has the power to heal you, and He has the power to change your life.

Were called to be over comers. God doesn't require us to over comers. Jesus already overcame for us. 

I know that I am not sinless, but I hold fast to faith in Christ until the end. 
I will no longer turn away when life gets hard. 

2 Corinthians 12:9 says,  But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 



I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:14



This past year, I have become a much stronger Christian. Inside of  school,  I knew that I would need God by  my side at the Early College for the next four years.  In September 2014, I decided to start my own Christian group, where all Christians could come together and Worship The Lord. I enjoyed leading Mosaic (Making Ourselves Alive In Christ), this past year. I hope that we will have a even greater outcome this coming fall.


My life changed from ignoring God to living a life "Jesus-filled."



Outside of school, God has given me the courage to Praise and Worship Him even more, by singing on Sunday morning's at church. The first time I went up there to sing, I was nervous (Very Nervous). Nervous about, if my family at church, would see me differently than they did before. After singing that Sunday, I knew that there would be many more times that I would want to Worship God, by singing to Him. I used to be that quite girl that never listened to the pastor's message and wouldn't open my mouth to Praise God. But today, I am probably one of the loudest singers there, and I constantly take notes when the Pastor is Preaching.




I am very blessed to be the Christian that I am today, but I know that I could be better. I pray to God everyday that each day I will become a even stronger Christian than I was the day before


 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.                                                                                                                                                                                       -Galatians 2:20

Faith and Trust

When you ask God to come into your life and change you, you are willing to put your faith and trust in God's hands and letting Him control where life takes you. Galatians 2:20 says I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

Yes, it is a very big chance to take, but in the end it is worthwhile.



I recently learned in my life, that when you ask God to come into your life and change you, that not only do you have to ask for it but you have to willingly open up and give Him a chance. 


I used to wonder why God was not listening to me, I had asked for Him to come into my life, but He never did. God did come into my life, I just wasn't giving Him the opportunity to start making changes. I finally realized that God uses our own voice, our own words, and our own  actions to determine our future. I wasn't giving God a chance to come in and give advice. I was blocking Him out. But now, I ask myself Whom Shall I Fear? 


Matthew 19:26 says, But Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” 


With God, All things are possible... But you have to be ready for God to take control.

Sometimes God Knows Best

No, I'm not the perfect Christian Girl that I want to be, no one can be that perfect Christian because we all sin each and everyday. 


Many people at my school comes to me for Christ-like advice. Do I question why me? No. I just accept that is where God needs me to help out so I just give them advice. 

I recently went through a emotional time. I tried out for the school play, and didn't get the part that I wanted. I prayed to God asking that He just let me do the very best that I could...And He did. 


But throughout auditions and casting a really close friend of mine reminded me not to be mad at God. Ok, so maybe acting isn't one of my talents, but singing is. God gives me the courage to get up on stage at Church and at school and to sing and worship Him. So why should I be mad at God??? She told me, "No Matter what happens in the end... Always remember your Gods Girl and No one can ever change that." 


I have realized in life that not everyone has the same talents and were like that for a reason... God made us to all be unique. So while I was so upset about not getting the part that I wanted God just sent a message and He said, "If I had made you just like everyone else that did get the lead parts then you wouldn't be the person that I know you are."


I got to thinking about it and No, I don't want to be like everyone else, I want to stand out like God made and wanted me to. I don't have to have every talent in the world to be me. God gave me the ability to sing, dance, and give advice. There is probably a whole list of what God did and didn't give me that I haven't figured out but that I will find out in life sooner or later. 


So No, I am not that perfect Christian girl that I want to be but God doesn't want me to be perfect.... He just wants me to be me.

New Year New Me

Happy New Year!!!
New year resolutions is very common during this time. I remember this time last year I set my new year resolutions and one of them was to improve my relationship with God. I knew before I could improve my relationship I would have to confess to God that I didn't enjoy reading THE WORD. He very quickly taught me how to have a love for THE WORD!!!!
This year I am still wanting to improve my relationship with Him so I am participating in the 2015 SIESTA. SIESTA is where you memorize two bible verses a month. One the 1st and 15th of each month you share them with others. I am not only doing this for me but I am wanting to share Gods Word with others.
If you want to learn more about SIESTA you can follow this link -



First verse for 2015
Proverbs 3:6 ESV
In all you ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your straight paths.

Imagine that you have someone really close to you and one morning you leave to go to school or work, you come back home later that night expecting to see that person but quickly learn something serious happened to them such as them passing away. Honestly, we as humans don't have to imagine that tragic story, because it eventually happens to every one of us, we just don't never expect it to be us or our loved ones. I've learned in my short life span that everything happens for a reason. When a loved one passes away we say we don't want them to go, but you have to think about them and exactly how they feel. Why would you want them to be in pain and suffer? If you truly love them, you will accept that God has taken them home where there is no suffering or pain. We adapt, we accept, but we never get over it! I am often asked, when will the pain go away, my honest answer is never. It changes intensity, like the waves in the ocean, as we all struggle to get to Grief Beach. Often times when loved ones passes away you want to say I'm sorry or I understand, but you honestly can't say you understand because you honestly don't know how that person feels. And, I'm sorry just makes that person even sadder. I've recently experienced this, one of my sweet friends dad passed away, I had know idea what to say or how to feel. I quickly felt the need to seek God and His advice. Even though today this sweet friend and I are still very upset, but I can say that God let me words come out as if I never had a problem or a fear of talking to them. I quickly told my friend to seek God, and He can help you, because He will never forsake you. That dearest friend knows who they are and I want them to know that I Love Them!!!
