Talking to a friend after a long time
So i talked to my friend who went to the army, and its been months since I’ve last talk to him untill today through aim. It was great to know that even though he’s in a place thats all intense and probably not a Godly influence on him, that he’s still the same person before he left.
What got me the most was when he was at the airport waiting to leave with three books but ended...
“for,
the training of the body has a limited benefit,
but...”
– 1 Timothy 4:8
Prayer
Lord I pray that your love is in every thought of mine. I pray that I constantly think of how much you love us whenever a temptation is brought before me.
Amen
Relationship
The more we:
know about God, love God, learn to reflect God ,pray to God, trust God, go to God, learn to live like his son, sacrifice for him, follow God, it all becomes more than just religion, it transforms into an intimate relationship with God.
Realization
Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. God has come to test you, so that the fear of God will be with you to keep you from sinning.”
Exodus 20:20
It’s kinda weird of me to say this but i realized that I don’t fear God as much as I need to.It’s not the kind of fear where I’m scared that God will punish me for all the sins I’ve done, but the...
The Way You Love Us
When we forget about you, you send us someone to remind us of your love. When we don’t listen, you chase after us. You loved us so much that you let us run to where we can’t run no more knowing that we’ll hear your call and just cry out to you. You plan everything out, you know exactly what we need and lift us up at just the right time.
The way you love us is beautiful. I...
hmmmm
I feel as if everything I prayed for is slipping away. darn.. I know I can handle these things that come in my way because,
“No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.”
1 Corinthians 10:13
If I fall...
I’ve realized that I’m a very judgmental person, and that i tend to look down at those who know God but doesn’t really live for him. I get so caught up with their actions or words that in my mind I tend to say to myself ” what are you doing? This isn’t what God wants us to do. You should know that already.” Then it gets to the point where I just criticize and...
The less we have, the more we'll need Jesus
Then Jesus said to his disciples, “I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.
Matthew 19:23-24
I’ve beginning think on how hard is it for us to need Jesus? Are we too rich in our belongings? Not so much as in money...
God is right there infront of us.
What are we waiting for? Let’s start following.
Perfect Timing
You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.
-Romans 5:6 NIV
God didn’t wait for us to be ready nor did he compromise to fit our schedule.
God came in at the right time just like he always has and always will. It’s all part of his perfect plan for each and everyone of us around the world.
TRUST
Not much
I don’t have huge amounts of love towards you Lord, maybe only a fraction of it? I don’t have a whole lot of self-control to glorify your name. My trust in you is little.
Lord i know i dont have much that I can give to you, but I’ll give everything i have so little of to you. Help me trust you Lord, help me let this be a prayer and something to meditate on and not just be words...
“In my anguish I cried to the LORD, and he answered by setting me free. The LORD...”
– Psalm 118:5-6
trust
Man, why am I so scared?? I wonder why doubts of others scare me in a way that makes me selfish. Maybe because that it might include me in it? Such a weird feeling thats grown on me.
I kinda don’t like it. It shakes me up inside wondering. I shouldn’t worry anyway…
I know 40 days of fasting might have change a few tiny things but that was the Lord’s plan for me. 40 days...
True Love
We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love.God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them.
1 John 4:16
We can’t truly love others if we don’t love God because he is love! Our definition of love changes all the time but God remains constant.
“Read the bible, don’t let it go because you’ll be surprised on all...”

Fasting Over

There wasnt so much changes to the internet or anything that i used on the internet so there isn’t much i can say that i missed about it. I guess the endless communications i had with my friends but i found that talking on the phone isn’t so bad....
