Sorry

On the last post( Counting my blessings) I forgot to post a scripture at the end. So here it is:

Ezekiel 34:26 I will bless them and the places surrounding my hill. I will send down showers in season; there will be showers of blessing.

Counting my blessings

Today I would like to share with you all of the blessings God has given me and that I trust there are more to come.

-family
-friends
-shelter
-food
-water
-furniture
-Home
-a bed to sleep in
-bed sets
-siblings
-ability to minister through jbq, dance, and drama.
-car
-safety
-pastors,evanjalists(sp), and ministers
-church family
-a room
- kids church

Remember, these are just a few....I know that God gives me things I need and sometimes things that I really want. He puts people and things in my life for a reason. God, I know, IS an AWESOME GOD!

What a great friend!

Tonight my mom had a 31 purse party. ( I learned that 31 stands for Proverbs 31. And if your a mother...I want to convice you to read it. ) Anyway, there were 8 kids that I had to try to watch downstairs in our playroom for the whole time. I, truthfully, wasn't really physced at the whole idea at first but it ended up being a lot of fun! And with 8 kids...its a lot of work! lol. But my 16 year old friend, Jacqueline (sp), helped out a lot! Thanks Jacqueline! And that is my point of todays topic. That makes me realize how great of friends I have and that I am so blessed to call them friend. Friends always stand up for you. They always feel your pain, or even joy. When you are sick, they pray for you. When you are enthousiastic (sp), they are too. When you hurt, they hurt. When you rejoice, they rejoice. When you need help( as shown above in my example), they help you. When you need a friend, they are there for you.

So... I realize that Jesus is MY very best friend and that he is always with me when I need him! He is the friend that will always be there for you. As you know the saying "Friends will pass away, but family will always be there." (I dont know where i heard that from. lol. ) Well, i have a message for you. Even if family passes away too Go wont leave you! EVER! He hasn't before with me and he never will!

Proverbs 18:24
A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.

South America

I just got an email from my Pop last night. He is doing work in South America and wanted to let me know how he was doing and what was going on there. And don't stop reading now....'cause this is really important to me. He said that he was sitting in his hotel room watching tv when he saw that there where many South American people walking for miles and standing in the middle of a feild just to hear a man of God. I can't believe it considering it was probably very hot over in that other country. He also said that God is really touching people over there and that he watched as one boy was completely healed of psoriasis! The preacher was standing on a big platform, loving on people, as he was being soaked in his own sweat. My pop said that he really wanted to get out and do something but he found himself glued to the chair.

I, personally, think it's amazing what God is doing, not just here, but over in another country as well. I think that I take for granted every day about our air conditioning or how we can just drive to church to hear the preacher talk. Or how we can worship freely. I realize I never really thank God for the blessings that he has given me. That is how I feel. I want to really start thanking God each and every day for what I have in my life.

Matthew 28:19 Therefore, go and make diciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Thanks!

Thanks so much for reading and commenting on my blog! All of you are such a supportive and loving group of people! It really means a lot to me that I actually have people reading my blog and listening to what I have to say! Again, THANKS! I am going to list a couple of reminders for people who follow this blog. I hope to hear from you all soon.

Reminder: I will be putting a scripture from the word of God that goes along with every post I type. So please, Read it and apply it to your life!

Reminder: I will try to post daily but sometimes I don't get to it that day. So please, if you follow or read my blog, keep looking and reading! You never know when I am going to post something!

If you have any questions or concerns please email me : hsh41300@yahoo.com

By your side

Have you ever felt left out or thrown in the dark, alone, where you can't see anything that is going to happen next. Do you feel like no one loves or cares about you? I know, sometimes when I feel like that, I try to remember that God is right by my side, holding MY hand through that darkness. And I also know that if I trust in him he will STAY BY MY SIDE until he walks me into light. Sometimes when you do feel like no one cares for you and if you have no one else to turn to.... turn to God. He will always have time to listen to you explain and WILL and I mean will, always love and care about you. Because if you are a christian, you are his child. As a father loves his own children, that is how much God loves you. But more. So remember this scripture when you are going through bad things in life, you just might have to run to God and let yourself know that he is right by your side.

Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all of your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all of your ways acknowledge him, and he will keep your paths straight.

Family

Everyone loves family, right? Well I know I absouloutly (sp) love my family! And I am going to tell you why! Parents- they love,care, and stick up for you! Siblings- you always have someone to play with during the day if you feel lonely and they encourage you! Families always back you up. They stay by your side whether you feel pain and sorrow or happiness and joy! What I am trying to say is that they are always there for you and that they just plain out LOVE you! And that reminds me of how much Jesus loves me! He died on the cross for me, because he loves me. He had nail-peirced hands and feet, because he loves me. He had a sword stuck in his side, because he loves me. He ressurected, because he loves me. He forgave me of my sins, because he loves me. Now I am living for him, because I love him! And family reminds me of that! So when I say family, that is including my Lord and Savior Jesus!

Reminder: Every time I put a new post on my blog, I will write a scripture to go with what I am talking about at the end!


Isaiah 53:5 But he was peirced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities, the punishment that brought us peace was upon him and by his wounds we are healed.

A fun night

Tonight, in my opinion, is going to be a fantabulous night! Full of fun activities. But for now, I am sitting on the couch writing a brand new awesome post on my blog. Anyway... my mom is away, grocering of course, and my nana: Jackie/Jacqueline is watching us until she gets back. So far it has been a great couple of hours. So, when my mom gets home, which she is bringing home pizza too, my nana is going to eat dinner with us. I don't know what we are going to do next but I am for sure that my nana, sister: Holly, and me are all going to revival service at my church. I am not sure about my mom..... but since we are going with nana to service, me and holly are going to spend the night at her house tonight and that should be a lot of fun! And that is how my night is gonna be a FUN NIGHT!

Ok. So I know not very many people read this blog but I am going to start sending out monthly emails to my friends and talking to my family about seeing what I write about. I just know this isn't a very popular blog to look at and at times it is not very interesting. But I want to really make it a lot more cooler! Anyway, IF you read my blog please talk to other people about it. Because maybe, just maybe they will want to read it too!

Another notice: Every time I start putting posts, since I am a follower of Christ, I want to try to put a new scripture at the end. So please read it. You might really like the word of God that i put down.

Psalm 19:14 May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, O lord, my rock and my redeemer.

Summer Vacation

Ok, so I am sorry that I have not been writing in a while. I have been really busy for the last couple of weeks. Anyway, i am so excited for my summer vacation! I am also so amazed at what fun exciting things I am going to do this summer. Like, *Six Flags* , *Holiday World* , and I am definetely happy about going to my outragous * Horse Camp* this summer, sometime this June. I am also very anxiousabout spending time with all of my family this summer. I have to go because my computer battery is running low and almost dead. So please, I wish you the best of summers and hope and pray that yours will be the awesomest!
