Is it wrong to ask God Questions? There are 2 I'd love to ask:

Lord, where were you when my Mom was hanging in that machine? Her injury seems so pointless, it accomplished nothing!

Lord , where were you when I was being tortured in school? You've seen how much it's hurt me, and how its just about destroyed me.

A few days ago, A friend of mine and I got into a discussion about the rapture. To make a long story sort, she said she didn't belive in it, and called it escapism. I do not agree with her. The rapture is something that all Christians should be prepared for. I sure am! Won't it be amazing, being caught up in the clouds with Jesus, going to heaven, seeing all your Christian friends, and Christian relatives and friends that have passed on?

This week, we had Revival serrvices in my Church. Tuesday night, I was really touched by the message. Our preacher talked about who God has a job for every Christian. Lord, I pray you would show me what you would have me to do. I really don't know what I can do, since I'm so shy!

Just a little praise report here for ya! My Aunt's heart surgery went good, and she's back home and doing fine!

“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does
not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the Word of Truth.”
2 Timothy 2:15

Lord, I'm not ashamed to talk about you and the things you've done for me, and what you can do
others!

Prayer Requests for today:

For my Aunt who is having Heart surgery tomorrow
For my Friend Gabb who has health problems of her own
For Me, as I continue to stay on my Diet

“But now He has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy in His sight, without blemish and free from accusation… IF you continue in your faith, established and firm, not moved from the hope held out in the Gospel.” Colossians 1:22-23


Lord, I thank you for sending your Son Jesus to die for me, so that I can be saved and be with you in heaven!

I did a rewind today and read the early part of Genesis. I tell ya, Adam and Eve had it made, and man did they blow it! They had it all: A wonderful place to live, God came down every evening and talked to them, they had no problems at all! But the Devil stepped in, and becaused he messed with Eve's head, we are all sinners, but thankfully, Jesus is here for us!

“I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.” Philippians 3:8


Lord, you are soooo wonderful!! Knowing you is better then anything else that I can imagine in the whole world!

Wednesday, October 19, 2005

“I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.” Philippians 3:8

Lord, I am sooooo glad that I know you as Lord and Savior! As i've said a million times, If you don't know Jesus, you really don't know anything!


I don't know/why people like Night and all the other Satanists can believe the way they do. Their beliefs will do nothing for them except get them sent to Hell! I hope and pray that they change their ways.

Saturday, October 15, 2005

Apart from Jesus, my favorite character in the Bible is Paul. There was a man who didn't mind stepping on people's toes, and telling both the Christians and non believers what was what! I also admire his courage for standing up for what he thought was right, even though he was risking his life. I don't know if I would be singing if I were locked up in jail! God did some job on changing him. I would have loved to been around at that time and been able to accompany him on his journeys.

�The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom.� 2 Timothy 4:18


Lord, thank you for watching over me and my family and keeping us healthy and happy and safe and sound!

You know what? God even protected me when I didn't even believe in him. Those idiots in school could have killed me or something, but I know God was watching over me!

Wednesday, October 12, 2005

“The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom.” 2 Timothy 4:18

Lord, I thank you for putting your hand of protection all around me! I know that when all is said and done, you reign supreme, and I'll be with you in Heaven!
Disappointment is a fact of life. How you deal with it is what shows what you're made of. In regards to the COR presidency flap, maybe God made this happen in order to show me my strengths and weaknesses, so that when/if I run again, I'll be able to do things to the best of my ability!

“Whoever acknowledges me before men, I will also acknowledge him before my Father in heaven. But whoever disowns Me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven.” Matthew 10:32-33

This verse reminds me of a question that comes up every once in a while. If someone had a gun to your head and asked you if you believed in God, and if you said yes, you'd be shot, what would you say? Well, I know what I'd Say! I'd say yes! I'm not afraid to die, because I know that when my time comes, I'll be in heaven with Jesus!

Monday, October 03, 2005

“Whoever acknowledges me before men, I will also acknowledge him before my Father in heaven. But whoever disowns Me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven.” Matthew 10:32-33


Lord, right now in front of all the readers of this blog, I once again declare that you are my Lord and Savior!

Prayer Requests for today:

For my Friend Kat, she is really sick

For me, as I take on the Presidency of the COR

Saturday, October 01, 2005

I have a confession to make. Right now, I am full of jealousy. This evening , I went to a party, and seeing all the people holding hands and being all lovey dovey with their husbands/wives/boyfriends/ girlfriends just killed me. I feel like I am slowly dying of lonliness. I have been praying for years for God to send me someone, but nothing. I'm a nice person, but that has gotten me nowhere. Lord, please forgive me for being jealous, and either guide me to the one you've made for me right now, or give me patience to wait. I really don't know how much more I can take.

"But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever ! Amen" 2 Peter 3-18


Lord, I thank you for another wonderful day! I pray that we have many more to come.

I have a very special prayer requests for tonight. Please pray for me and my family. We are having money problems, and its making everyone in my household very irritable and we've been fighting.

Thursday, September 29, 2005

"But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever ! Amen" 2 Peter 3-18


Lord, I pray that you would show me your will for my life. Right now, I feel like a ship without a rudder, just drifting around in life. What ever you want me to do, I will not only do it, but give my greatest effort, because I know that you'll be there with me!

Prayer Requests for today:

For all of my family and friends, that God would help them with any troubles they have.

For the war in Iraq to end.

One thing that really breaks my heart is that both of my sisters are not saved. They were both brought up in the church, but somehow they drifted away. I have asked my sister that lives near me to come with us to church a few times, but shes always nastily turned me down. My niece that lives with my other sister in Virginia was saved last summer, but her parents will not go to church either. Please pray that they will come to know Jesus!

"But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever ! Amem" 2 Peter 3-18

Lord, You are the only one who truly knows me! I pray that I can know you better then I do know!

Today's been a rough day. One of my dogs died, so I'm not quite in the mood to do much tonight. Just shows you that life is fleeting, you never know when your number will be called!



Monday, September 26, 2005

For the first 26 year's of my life, I didn't beleive in God. I figured that he either didn't exist or care about me, because he did nothing to help me when I was a sick little baby, and did even less to help me when I was being picked on and tortured in school. Needless to say, my Mom was not very happy about that. However, in 1997, something happened to me that changed my life. A friend of my Parents and I invited Mom and myself to her church. At first, I was very uncomfortable since I had to be around a lot of people I didn't know. You all know how shy I am! Well, the people in church made me feel welcome and comfortable from the start. Being the inquisitive mind I am, I started to really read the bible, and really started learning about God. Finally, in September of 97, I was saved, and the rest as they say is history. Yes, there have been some struggles since then, expecially when my Mom got hurt, and I started to lose my faith, but I always came back to God!
"But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever ! Amem" 2 Peter 3-18


Lord, I pray that you will help me grow more in knowledge of you, and let me never forget to give you glory and honor in all things!


Sometimes, when something good happens to us, we forget that God makes everything possible, and we don't give him the praise and glory that he deserves.

"Submit yourselves to God. Resist the Devil, and he will flee from you." James 4:7

Lord, I pray that you would give me the insite to know what your will for me is, and help to differentiate what you want from what the enemy wants me to think!


I am totally amazed at how the disciples could just up and leave their friends, family, and jobs behind to follow Jesus! Jesus must have been one great speaker in person!

Prayer Requests for today:

For my best friend in the whole world, who is in a real bad shape

And praise that this hurricane wasn't as bad as was expected.

Friday, September 23, 2005

"Submit yourselves to God. Resist the Devil, and he will flee from you." James 4:7


Lord, once again I thank you for protecting me from the Devil's evil!

One of the most profound verses, in my opinion, is Matthew 16:26 "For what is a man profited if he shall gain the whole world, but lose his own soul?" It's sooooo true! You can be the richest man in the whole world, but if you don't have Jesus, you have ABSOLUTLEY NOTHING!


Prayer requests for today:

For Me, as I'm getting that lonely feeling again

For all those who will be hit by the new Hurricane

Thursday, September 22, 2005

"Submit yourselves to God. Resist the Devil, and he will flee from you." James 4:7


Today, I did a bit of backtracking and went to the Old Testament and read the story of Jonah. Though I've never been eaten by a whale before, I've been hesitent a few times about doing what God told me to do, and He really got dissapointed at me. Just goes to show you, you can run but you can't hide!


Prayer Requests for today:

Relief for those that are going to be affected by this new hurricane coming, and prayer that Louisiana doesn't get hit again!

Tuesday, September 20, 2005

"Submit yourselves to God. Resist the Devil, and he will flee from you." James 4:7


Lord, I thank you for saving me! The Devil is powerless against you!


I feel sooo sorry for those who get discouraged and give up because of all the BS that the Devil puts in their minds. It's up to us as Christians to help these people get on the right track.

Monday, September 19, 2005

“Submit yourselves to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.”
James 4:7


Lord, I pray that you will give me the strength to Resist the Devil, since I know that since
I'm yours, he as all sorts of bad stuff that he wants to do to me.


Yes, the biggest thing the Devil is trying to do to me is to get me to lose my faith.
sometimes I get these strange thoughts in my head like " God doesn't love you! if he
did, why would he make all this stuff thats happened to you happen? Well, I'm not
falling for it! God's plans for me are good, even though I might not like or
understand them!

Reading through all the books of the New Testament, I'd love to have lived during the time
of Jesus. It would have been neat meeting all the people that the Bible talks about living
at that time!

"You Will Know The Truth And The Truth Will Set You Free" John 8:32

Lord, your truth gets revealed to me more and more everyday!

As I told you find readers in my last post, today I started delving into revelation. It is soooooo difficult to understand a lot of it. I feel sorry for the unsaved people who are going to have to go through the horrors of the Tribulation! I can only imagine the pain and suffering they'll go through:( But on the converse, I am sooooooo excited about the glory of Heaven that we'll see when Christ comes for us who are saved!!!

Prayer Requests For Today

For my cousin Kelly and her family as they leave West Va. to start a new home in Kentucky.



Friday, September 16, 2005

"You Will Know The Truth And The Truth Will Set You Free" John 8:32


Lord, I thank you for another wonderful day today!

I think that starting Tomorrow, I'm going to take a shot at reading Revelation. I've tried to read if before, but I can understand very little of it. Perhaps now with God's guidance, I'll be able to understand it!


Prayer Requests For Today:

For Cathy's Daughter

For all the people still displaced by the hurricane






Thursday, September 15, 2005

Lord, even though sometimes I don't act like it, I am sooooo thankful for the things you've done for my Family and Myself over the years! For the big things, the little things, the things we don't even know you've done for us, and the things you are going to do for us in the future, I thank your for each and everyone of them! I pray that you will continue to watch over us, and I can't wait till that day when I can tell you how thankful I am in person!

"You Will Know The Truth And The Truth Will Set You Free" John 8:32


Lord, once again I thank you for sending me these wonderful friends to study your word with! I feel closer to you then ever before!

Prayer Requests For Today:

Once again for me to win my battle with weight


Tuesday, September 13, 2005

"You Will Know The Truth And The Truth Will Set You Free" John 8:32

Lord, I thank you for the freedom that knowing you gives me! Freedom from sin, and knowing that I have a place in Heaven with you!


This statement applies to more then God. Sometimes in life, when we're faced with the truth, no matter what situation, we should accept the truth, even if we may not like it! After this weekend, I learned that the hard way! I'm at peace now with the truth of that matter.


In continuing my reading of the Gospel of John, I've gotten to the crucifixion. I can't ever read about that without crying, because I can only imagine the pain He went through on the Cross. Thank you Lord for sending your Son to Die for ME, even though I'm a sinner and don't deserve it!

Prayer Requests For Today

For my Friend Kat, who is having financial problems

And a praise for the tension hanging around my Parents for the past few days finally going away.


Monday, September 12, 2005

“You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:32


Lord, YOU are truth! No matter what others may say, you are the only way to salvation! I thank you for showing me the way

Prayer requests for today:

For me, to continue my improving walk with Christ

For the tension to decrease between my parents, as they havn't talked to each other in a couple of days.

For the continued safety, health, and happiness of my friends and family.

Sunday, September 11, 2005

In Church today, the sermon was about letting our light shine. I pray that I can do all I can to let my light shine and be a good example of what a Christian should be.


Today's prayer requests:

God's confort for all the families of those lost on 9-11

More comfort for the Hurricane victims

For me to win my weight battle
Lord, please give me the strength to handle all the adversity going on in my life, and please give me the common sense to differentiate criticism from advice. I'm feeling a lot better today then I did yesterday. I just wish I could like myself all the time. Maybe I try too hard to please everyone.

Saturday, September 10, 2005

Sorry about the previous post, I'm just frustrated! As you can see, patience is not my strong suit!
Once upon a time there was a man who met the most wonderful woman in the whole world. He fell in love with her, and she said that she loved him and wanted to spen the rest of her life with him. However, not 1 but 2 men convinced her that he didn't deserve to be loved because he was fat and unattractive. Today, that man is totally devastated and heartbroken because she is marrying one of those guys, and since she was the one for him, he must face the rest of his life alone, never knowing love, or being able to have a family of his own.

"I Have Hidden Your Word In My Heart That I Might Not Sin Against You" Psalm 119:11

Lord, thank you for giving me these great friends that are joining me in this study! It's nice to have friends to share and study your Word with.


Prayer requests for today:

For me to get through tomorrow, as an event will be happening that I don't want to talk about will be occuring that has me very upset.

For my Family and Friends.

"I Have Hidden Your Word In My Heart That I Might Not Sin Against You" Psalm 119:11


Lord, I'm putting this lesson on hold tonight just to have a special prayer. Lord, please help Mel and her family get through this crisis they're going through,
As you all know, I always talk about how lonely I am. Well, I can truly say that God is always with me, and I'm never alone. Friends may come and go, but God will never leave you!

Wednesday, September 07, 2005

"I Have Hidden Your Word In My Heart That I Might Not Sin Against You" Psalm 119:11


Lord, please help me to always keep you first in my life! I know that without doing that, I can never recieve everything you have planned for me.


Prayer Requests For Today

For my friend Melissia and her family, they're having some problems

For my Mom, that her hand would be healed

This evening, at my Church's bible study, We continued our study of the Sermon On The Mount. Tonight be focused on the Beatitudes. The one that hit me the most was Blessed are the Merciful for they shall obtain mercy. That one gets to me because it reminds me that I must continue to work on forgivness, or I won't recieve it from God.

Tuesday, September 06, 2005

"I Have Hidden Your Word In My Heart That I Might Not Sin Against You" Psalm 119:11

Lord, as I continue this study, I am getting a more complete idea of your love for me, and I thank you for giving me that knowledge.

Prayer Requests For Today:

For me, to continue to increase my faith

For my friend Kat, who broke her foot a couple days ago, and is in pain and discomfort.


This weekend, I was watching a news program on TV, and it had a segment about a church in Lousiana that had been destroyed by the hurricane, and its members were holding Sunday Services in its ruins. In his sermon, the Pastor made a comment that really stood out. he said sometimes God strips us of everything we have to make us realize what really matters in life, and to increase our faith and the realization that we have to place our trust in him and no one/ thing else! I agree with that 100%!


Monday, September 05, 2005

"I Have Hidden Your Word In My Heart That I Might Not Sin Against You" Psalm 119:11


Lord, I pray that You will help me to truly understand your word, so that I can be the person you have planned for me to be.


Prayer Requests For Today:

Healing for me, as I don't feel too good today.

For my church, that it may continue to grow.

For God to Send me the woman he's made for me, as I am very lonely.

For continued good health, safety, and happiness for my family and friends.

My favorite verse in the whole Bible is John 3:16. That verse shows what it's all about! If Jesus hadn't died for us, we'd be in deeeeeeep trouble!

Sunday, September 04, 2005

John 15:5 "Apart from me, you can do nothing"

As I leave this passage for now, I once again realize how true it is! Lord, I pray that always seek your will, not mine when it comes to my life. I know some of the plans you have for me, I may not like, but I accept them anyway, since if you have planned them, they are for my own good!


Prayer Requests For Today:

Me, because I am gathering up the courage to make a possibly life changing decision that I don't want to tell right now.


For my family and friends for their health, safety, and happiness.


The following is an opinion, take it for what it's worth.

I fully believe that Jesus is coming very soon! I think so because of all the disasters, wars, and other assorted bad stuff that's going on right now. I can't wait till He comes, because I know without a shadow of a doubt that I will be with him, and hopefully all of you that are reading this! It will be soooo great!
Though I turned 34 on Thursday, today I turned 8 in Christian years. it was 8 years ago today that I finally gave my life to the Lord. I tell ya , it was kinda scary doing it, but I wouldn't have it anh other way! Of couse, my faith has had its ups and downs on occasion, but I will never turn back!

Friday, September 02, 2005

John 15:5 "Apart from me, you can do nothing"


The more I read that piece of scripture, the more I realize how true it is! I can only imagine how happy God is when we call on him, just like a real life parent.

Some Prayer Requests for today:

More relief for hurricane victims

For my 2 sister, Lori and Julie, and their families to come to know Christ.
My biggest struggle in life is forgiveness, expecially as it deals with the lady that caused my Mom to get hurt. If it were a normal accident, I wouldn't have much of a problem, but because of circumstances that a lot of you know about, it is very difficult. Sometimes I have no problem dealing with it, and other times, It just kills me. I pray every day that God would help me deal with it. I think I'm making progress, because I have almost completely forgiven all those people who picked on me in school because of my weight and have caused me lots of emotional problems.

Wednesday, August 31, 2005

John 15:5 "Apart from me, you can do nothing"


Lord, there are a lot of things I'm thankful that you've done for me, but here's just a few of them:

Helping me survive all the operations I went through when I was a baby

Giving me such a great family

Giving me a nice home

Giving me a great bunch of friends

Lord, Thank you! I know none of those things I've mentioned would not be possible without you!


Some Prayer Requests For Today:

More relief for the hurricane victims

Prayer for those killed/injured in the stampede in Iraq.


I havn't had time at this moment to read the bible at home today, but in Bible Study today, we're studying the Semon On The Mount.
John 15:5 "Apart from me, you can do nothing"


You know, most people concentrate on John 3:16, but verses 15 and 17 are, in my opinion, just as powerful! Jesus came to save us, all we have to do is believe!

Prayer requests for today:

Relief for those affected by the hurricane

Prayer for 2 friends of mine who are having major problems in their marriage

Tuesday, August 30, 2005

“Apart from Me you can do nothing.” John 15:5

This is soooooo true! without God, everything I attempt to do is meaningless!


John 1:3 - This really shows that God is the creator of ABSOLUTLEY EVERYTHING! I am glad to be part of God's plan for the World!



Some prayer requests for today:


Mom: Healing for her hand.

Me: To get over this depression and lonliness I've lived through so long, to lose weight, make more friends, and to find the woman that God has made for
me.

The rest of my Family: Safety, good health, and for those that don't know Jesus to come to Him.

My Friends: Continued safety and health, and that God would intervene in any problems they may be having.

Monday, August 29, 2005

Thank you Lord, for everything you've done in my life! I know that sometime's I may seem ungreatful, but believe me, I am sooooo glad that you're here for me!
