Lessons
Lessons are something that we all need
However the things we need aren’t always enjoyable
Sometimes we learn easy lessons like how to walk or ride a bike
Other times we learn lessons about life and how to respond to it
Either way it’s lessons like these that mature us and prepare us for our next stage of life
So give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ...

Fun
Sometimes we are so sure of things, and life has a way of changing things up
but thats ok, i believe its more fun that way
If life were simple, we wouldn’t have half of the joy we have now
Its been awhile
After finishing up this semester I realized that my life is speeding up. Gotta enjoy every moment of life rather its difficult or easy, fun or frustrating. Because you dont get this part back. However you cant live in fear because every year is only one of who knows how many. You could be gone tomorrow for 60 years from now. So enjoy the little things.

Living Life
While seeking to enjoy this life and all that it has there are always roadblocks in our way. Colossians 3: 1-17 has really helped me in my efforts to live a life that will glorify God and bring me true joy.
1 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly...
As we approach Good Friday and easter Sunday I am going to take time to focus on Jesus and what he did during his final week. Let us celebrate and be joyful for his resurrection.
Life
There are so many different aspects of life, so many things for us to experience and take joy in. When I think about my future I think of places I want to see, people I hope to grow with and the things I want to do. Sometimes we can get caught up in that, and those things we once sought may not seem as special once we have experienced them. Matthew 6:33 helps us to reach a point where we can truly...
Casting Stones
Casting stones of worry into the ocean felt great.
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. -Matthew 6:33-34
Now unto the one
“Where ever our praises rise to you, that is your dwelling place..” -Evan Wickham
Little things
Watching the sunset,hearing the birds chirp and seeing bugs dance in the air is such a blessing
What do I want to do in life?
A question that brings me joy. I want to share God’s word. Trusting in God can be difficult and honestly frustrating at times. However, it is important that we remember who it is we are trusting.
The same God that painted a million stars in the sky just so we could marvel at his majesty. Patience is a virtue and it is something that doesn’t come easy. Yet, it is also something we can...
Took a walk with God, and it was great!
Gotta take advantage of this great night weather.

Colossians 3
Living as Those Made Alive in Christ
1 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is your[a] life, appears, then you also will appear with...

Life is full of Joy. So don’t focus on whats going on in your immediate life all of the time and how you want others and God to fit into that box. Instead choose to glorify God, enjoy his everyday blessings and share the love with everyone around you. Have a blessed day everyone.
