New friendships....old reasons.

     I love meeting new people especially when it just clicks and you know you will be friends with them for the rest of your life. I have had that experience recently. God has blessed me beyond measure by bringing two amazing Godly girls into my life. The beautiful thing is that all of us were looking for friendship that would have God in the center and we found it in each other. We realized too that we all had the same ideas and reasons for wanting a relationship like that. I am truly blessed in these friendships that are founded in God and His  word. I know that they are not afraid to tell me when I am doing things wrong or to encourage me...or even to help write a text. Friends are the most amazing blessing.

"Just as lotions and fragrance give sensual delight, a sweet friendship refreshes the soul." ~Proverbs 27:9


"The righteous should choose his friends carefully, For the way of the wicked leads them astray." Pro 12:26


Godly friends that keep me on track is so important to me. I am looking forward to the friends I make in the
 future that help in this way too. And I am so excited to continue all of the wonderful friendships I have now for
 the rest of my life. 

Never let go

Can you lay your life down, so a stranger can live?
Can you take what you need but take less than you give?
Could you close everyday without the glory and fame?
Could you hold your head high when no one knows your name?
That's how legends are made, at least that's what they say

We say goodbye but never let go
We live, we die 'cause you can't save every soul
Gotta take every chance to show that you're the kinda man
Who will never look back, never look down and never let go


(Never let go, Brian Adams)


This song reminds me of the men that serve everyday to protect our freedom. I am so proud of the service my Brothers, Dad, and Grandfathers have given this country. Please keep the men of our military in your prayers. Remember that they are the reason you live everday in freedom. 

It is amazing how words hurt and how they can really harm a relationship. I have been reminded of this through out the past few weeks. It is hard to deal with, especially if you are constantly around it. I have found it clear in the bible about how to deal with it. If you are dealing with the same problem just remember these verse....


Eph 4:29~Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers


Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. Live in harmony with one another.Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Never be wise in your own sight.
~Romans 12:14-16

Living Laughing and loving my life away!

Is there really any other better way to live your life then spending it living it to the fullest, laughing every time you can, and loving the people around you? I can't think of any. I am so blessed with the people in my life. at every turn I am encouraged and edified by this life God has given me. I wouldn't want to live it any other way. 

Make some noise with silence!

Hey everyone!!!
  Okay....so I really want everyone to join me on Oct 18th. Heres how it works, get some red tape write the word 'LIFE' on it. Then when your done take that piece of tape and wear it over your mouth for the whole day of Oct 18th. Not speaking for a day is a small thing to give up with a big impact. Take pictures and show the world that you are not afraid to show how you feel.

Why should you do this? Check it out in this link....

Now go be brave!!!

I love the reminder this song gives me. =D


We are a moment, You are forever
Lord of the Ages, God before time
We are a vapor, You are eternal
Love everlasting, reigning on high

Holy, holy, Lord God Almighty
Worthy is the Lamb Who was slain
Highest praises, honor and glory
Be unto Your name, be unto Your name

We are the broken, You are the healer
Jesus, Redeemer, Mighty to save
You are the love song we'll sing forever
Bowing before You, blessing Your name 

Yet another this....and another that.

   Have you ever had moment in your life where you suddenly realize that you have too many things to do? I do constantly! In fact these past few weeks have really made me realize that. I have been to a wedding and two debate tournaments within the past sixteen days....I am really burnt out. In fact I am sitting here at 7 in the morning writing this before I leave to finish off the last day of a tournament.

   But the one thing I have realized through all of this is that I learn to appreciate people more when I have less time with them.

   So that's my quick note for the day. =D
