i.love.this.show!!!

"love is PATIENT love is KIND. it does NOT ENVY, it does NOT BOAST, it is NOT PROUD. it is NOT RUDE, it is NOT SELF-SEEKING, it is not EASILY ANGERED, it does NOT KEEP ANY RECORDS OF WRONGS. love does not delight in evil, but REJOICES WITH THE TRUTH. it ALWAYS PROTECTS, ALWAYS TRUSTS, ALWAYS HOPES, ALWAYS PRESERVES....."

"and now these three remain: FAITH, HOPE, and LOVE, but the greatest of these is LOVE." -1 Corinthians 13:4-7 & 13


within these past two months i have been blessed with the opportunity to LOVE, and to love like i have never loved someone or something before!! Its been very hard at times.

God has challenged me to be PATIENT and KIND. He has challenged me to not be rude and self-seeking. I praise Him for all these challenges!! <3

withing these past two months i have had to love with a strong faith and never ending hope! i don't know what i would do without those. i can't begin to imagine.

So, now...i encourage YOU to GO. LOVE. and to spread that love to those who don't understand or experienced what TRUE LOVE is!!!

watching rain drops on my window....

When I first told someone that I was "watching rain drops on my window" they probably thought something along the lines of "wow...nutty!!" haha or "um, alright then. weirdo"
hahahaha. Hey! what can i say?! I tend to observe the unobserved! :)

While I was sitting in the passenger seat the other day, it was raining "cats and dogs"! At times it would just be sprinkling but at others it was a complete down pour!! Anyways, during all that I had one of two things i could have been doing...1) sleep or 2) read. I decided to day dream. haha.

As I was looking out my window I noticed the rain drops. Some were small when they hit the window others were big. No matter what the size they all went the same direction and were all doing the same thing...."catching" or running into other rain drops.

Now, most people just see rain on a window. No, no. I see each rain drop as a person and each "person" was dropped onto "earth", my window, in different places but they were all going in one direction. Along the way they were running into other "people". hahaha.

So, thanks to that some what odd observation I can't help but to look at rain drops totally different! whenever I see rain drops on my window I'm reminded of what I'm supposed to be doing here on earth. pretty cool huh? Betchya never thought of that!!

Unconditional Love

"He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you, but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God." -Micah 6:8

Before you start jumping to crazy conclusions....this guy is my cousin! haha. I love him with all my heart! He is SOOOO very special to me!!!

This weekend I had the opportunity to visit my grandparents and my cousin! I wouldn't say it was a vacation...but it was sure nice to get away from the busy life and just chillax with family for a while! Even though we had time to "chillax" I still had to study and work in different ways.

Everyday Christians are called to work and work for the Lord. We are to be disciples and spread the gospel to the world! I didn't exactly spread the gospel but I did get to "open up a door" for it! :)

1 Timothy 4:12 says "Let no one despise you for your youth, but set an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity." That is exactly what I did!...I acted out love. God not only opened a door for my dearest cousin but He opened a door for me! He opened up a door of opprotunity for me so that I may SHOW love and SPEAK lovingly.

I'm SO blessed to have a cousin like him! We truely truely are....Friends Forever!!
