Church!

So, I was finally able to go back to church today, after a month of not being able to go there for reasons I will not say. It was so nice! My kids had so much fun and the message was great! I didn't realize how much I missed it until today! Have you ever had to miss church and go crazy because of it? It's a pain in the rear right?! Why don't we look at some verses about church?

Blessings

Blessings can be hard to see sometimes, especially if we are going through a rough patch! A lot of times, unless they're like huge, they're hard to spot, right? Sit down, with a pen and paper, and think of all the small and big blessings you've had today alone.. You either got right through it, or you struggled to think of any. I've been on both sides! Here's my list for today, and today alone, God didn't forget to wake me this morning, my children, fellowshipping at church while cleaning and organizing, bath time, showers, food, a roof over my head, my cat, my bed, my family and their support, some things that I've got lined up for myself, my friends and so on.

When You're Tired

When you're tired, you're ready for bed and just want to sleep, am I wrong? I know that's how I am anyways! We tend to accidentally put God on the back burner when we are tired, whether it's physically, emotionally or mentally. I know a lot of times it can be hard to pray, even just a quick thank you Lord can be hard to get out when we are exhausted!

Joy!

Joy, it's something we all love to feel, right? I know I sure do! If you're saved, you know that we can always have that joy, it's up to us to focus on it instead of the trial, test or temptation that we're facing! I know it can be extremely hard to focus on, but sometimes we just need to in order to get through whatever it is we are facing!

Coming Closer to God..

Ok, sorry that I haven't been on posting guys, I've had some personal family stuff going on that I can't control. Anyways, during these past few days, I have seen how much I truly call upon God when I need Him the most. Which is close to none, I keep throwing out excuses saying well I can't even think straight, but I can think well enough to cry to my mom or my best friend. That's stopping, today.

Heartbreak.

Oh yeah, we've all been there, break ups, death of a family member, all kinds of things. They're hard to deal with and seem like they take forever to get over, by the time you think it's ok, something pops up and you break down again.

Love, Like Jesus Loves You!

Love, when you hear that, what is the first thing that comes to mind? For me, it's my family, mom, dad, brother, kids, husband, etc. it should be God. I'm just as guilty as you are, believe me! I know during hard and, let's be honest, easy times, it's hard to remember that God is there for us no matter what and that He loves us no matter what we do or what we say. People may love us, but we as people don't have the understanding of love like God does, and with some people, that love is conditional, whereas with God, it is NEVER conditional!

A Little Encouragement!

You know how sometimes you go through a trial, and you feel like there's no end and that you're in the wrong, even though you know that you know that you've done nothing wrong, biblically or morally? Yeah, we've all been there, me included. In fact my family and I are going through a trial right now, but God is so good.
