I just finished watching the Scott Peterson movie. The one about how he got arrested for murdering his wife. I can believe sinful things like this happen because I know it's a sinful world, but that doesn't make the pain and disgust at it go away. And it shouldn't. It makes me long for the day when Christ comes and makes everything g[...]
I absolutely loving share the hope--the true hope--of life with people. Especially broken people that see no hope. In my previous three blog posts, I've wrote three personal letters to you. Yes, they were to YOU. God wants you to know what He did for you and how much He loves you. So we talked about that. First, it is crucial to know[...]
In my last two blog posts, I get a little more personal than normal because I really wanted you to feel that they were targeted specifically at you. I mean, all of my blog posts are written for YOU to bring glory to God and encourage you in your relationship with Him. But I really wanted you to grasp those like maybe you wouldn't ano[...]
I wrote a letter to YOU the other day. It was very important because it's something the God of the universe wants you to know. It talks about how Jesus died for all of your sins. Why did he do that? Because God loves you so much. Oh, how He loves you. Today, I want to write you another letter. And this is for YOU. If you think you do[...]
Why did Jesus die for you? How do I know he died for me and for you? Can I earn this? Am I good enough for this? Is it too late for me? I wrote a blog post awhile back. Think January 2015 back. I was reviewing a devotional book that talked about why Jesus came, and I was going over my thoughts on the blog. I'm going to do a short fou[...]
Dear Heavenly Father, First of all, can I just stop and thank You for how amazing You are? You really are, God, and You are the perfect Father. You have taken care of me so much over the past week. That doesn't mean everything went perfectly. But You carried me through when it didn't, just as You promise (Isaiah 41:13). With that bei[...]
I am in awe at how many kids my age (I'm thirteen) and under "date". I guess I shouldn't be because that's the world for ya, but WOW. And I've talked to a lot of people about this. I'm like, "Why do you want to date so young?" I think I know why they do it - to fit in and fill their God void. But I don't think it's okay. I'm a firm b[...]
Tonight we decided to go into town to get food because that's what happens when Dad is gone, and Mom doesn't want to cook. I didn't complain because this healthy person loves fast food. I was reviewing my summer goals the other day and noticed I was supposed to blog everyday. My immediate excuse for that is well, it takes time to typ[...]
It's human nature to want to be special. To want to be remembered. To want to be different. To want to be the first at something. The only person super good at something.... Gotta love jealousy. I'll tell you a secret: I can be a very jealous person and want a lot of glory for myself. I can get very jealous very easily when people te[...]
