Anything You can do I can do Better

When I am blinded my anger or disappointment there are a few people the can comfort me. But nun of them can do it like Jesus can.

Who doesn't love gifts?

Take a Bible and place it on your lap.
Do you ever praise God?-take 100 pages
Do you ever get scared?-take 25 more
Do you ever get hurt or go through hard times?-add 100
Are you ever tempted?-25
Are you a sinner?-add 1900 more pages
It's written for you. this is proof. This book describes you, tells you what you need and exactly how to get it. It is the gift that humanity will never be good enough to deserve. But it's for you to receive.

Isaiah

So I was in Chicago on Friday just hanging out with mike. We had some cool experiences and met some friendly faces. We met this one guys who's name was Isaiah. He was giving out Bible pamphlets of some sort. The Beth Moore Bible study that my mom and Megan are doing is going threw Isaiah as well. I think I'll read Isaiah. I read the summary last night. He was a prophet that no one really liked but he did his job because he knew that is what God had planned for him.

A List

1: I hate having to humble myself and doing what I need to do. So often I begin to think I'm better than others.-I surprisingly don't even feel any better about it.

2: I'm hurt. My hopes were lifted high just to get torn down...again.

3: I went on a run to run off all my anger. At the end I screamed "God!" at the top of my lungs. I then noticed Olivia Trilla walking her Dog. Can you say awkward?!

4: Valentines Day sucks.

5: This weekend was among the worst.

6: I'm forgiven and so are you...if you ask and Truly mean it.

Bits of what God is telling me

Oh God, you open doors and you close others. Guide my steps and lead me in the path of life!

Take your Faith as your Protection and my Word as your Sword!--Go into the world but do not become part of it. (not a verse)
I love this. Ephesians talks about to armor of God. Paul says our Faith is our shield meaning that when the world pushes us to our knees, out faith is what keeps us from falling. The Bible is our sword. When we are filled with Jesus we are called to memorize Scripture, go into the world and use what we learned to change it. The Bible is our sword to defeat the evil around us and our Faith is what keeps us from falling. A good combo.

Come and Follow Me

Do you love me? Do you want to be part of my kingdom and have a personal relationship with me?
Then follow the path I have set before you.
Honor your father and mother.
Encourage everyone you meet.
Converse with me.
Care for those that are hurting.
Don't lie or be a hypocrite.

Put down your double lives and pick up my cross. My burden is easy and my yoke is light.

Do you love me? Feed my sheep.

Community

So I went to a dance and it was a grand old time. But something stuck out to me. Betsy was in awe of all the people she met. It was a good reminder of the beautiful community I have at Timothy. We both heard exactly 1 bad word, the dancing was PG rated for the most part, and all the people there are so nice and inviting! I am blessed to be part of a community with all of them. We are the body of Christ in motion. So thanks TC!
