Bless them, as they bless me.
I pray a blessing over all of those that take the time out of their day, and their live’s to invest into my life.
God, I ask the you would bless them 10 time’s more than they bless me.
All those people that mean so much to me, and that I love so much.
I ask that you would show them just how much they mean to me, and how much they really do for me.
Just the fact that they are there for me, means the world to me.
That they truly care about what’s going on in my life, and how I am doing.
That just goes to show you what amazing people they are.
Taking the time out of their day to talk to me or spend time with me.
Giving me advice when I need it, helping me find the right way to go, and the right things to do.
Applauding me for doing something right, and pointing out when I have done something wrong.
Encouraging me to keep going when times are hard, and sticking it through with me.
God, pour blessing’s over their lives.
Give them joy and peace and patience (to deal with me).
Let them never feel unwanted or not needed.
Show them what they truly mean to me, and to you.
You know who you are 
We will lead it all.
We have had some really amazing services at youth group lately, and God is really moving in us and through us.
I feel like he is getting ready to do something really big.
And we have these amazing service’s and Thursday’s but Sunday’s come around and it seems like we hold back on Sunday morning’s.
Why do we do that??
Are we uncomfortable because we are “the youth”?
Because we don’t want to step on anyone’s toes?
Because it is “the Adult” service?
Well I have decided it doesn’t matter, God is beginning to move inside of us.
What if He is waiting for us to step out and pass it to the adult’s and we are standing back worried that we will upset someone.
1 Timothy 4:12 (New Living Translation)
12 Don’t let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believers in what you say, in the way you live, in your love, your faith, and your purity
God is calling us to move, we need to look past all the things that may hold us back, and allow Him to do what He want’s.
He is moving in us, and we need to pass it onto others.
Now is not the time to be selfish, we need to give it to as many people as we can.
I am not holding back because of my age.
God is calling for those willing to God, and I am willing.
I want to be used to start a revival.
Get ready, God is about to do something UN-BELIEVABLE!
And I believe the youth will lead it.
Here we go!
You are the everlasting God
You are there from the beginning and to the end, From the time I decided to live my life for You and to follow Your path for me, Until the time I am with You in heaven.
You are everlasting, never faling, un-ending, forgiving, all knowing, always loving, worthy, holy and so much more to me.
I can’t even find the word’s to express how I feel right now.
I am in such a beautiful place with You, I just want to be with You all the time, I want to be in Your presence forever and ever, I want to grab on and never let go.
“All of You is more than enough for all of me,
For every thirst and every need,
You satisfy me with Your love and all I have in You,
Is more than enough.”
I am could live the rest of my life just sitting in Your lap with my arms wrapped around you, knowing how much You love me.
How could I not want to be with You??
All that You do for me, How You are always there for me.
I will always and forever be Yours.
My letter to God
You are all I want, And all I could ever need.
You are with me through the hard time’s, the fun time’s, the sad time’s and the happy time’s.
I have all that I need right here beside me, I couldn’t ask You to be anymore than You are, Yet I know You are so much more than I realize that You are.
You are my Father, my Friend, my Confidant, my Provider and my Protector.
How could I ask for more??
I thank You for the heart You have given me to worship You, and allowing me to express my love through worship and worship leading.
I believe You have shown me one of the calling’s on my life,
I live to worship You.
I cannot wait for the day when I can stand at Your throne and worship You forever without feeling tired, or without words. I will be able to sing a new song to You forever.
I long to see the worship in Heaven here upon the earth,
I would love to be able to be a vessel to bring that worship down.
Thank You for my wonderful family and my friend’s, and everyone in between.
I have been truly blessed by You.
I will always be Your daughter, no matter what.
Here is my heart, Please take it all.
The unknown
I have recently found out how difficult it is to trust God, and to let Him have complete control of your life.
I have had oppurtunities open up at work, and it is really difficult to know where God wants me to go.
Now there is really only 1 way for me to move up at work..
So i am trusting God, and i am going to do it.
I know He will take care of me, Even if this isn’t the right job for me right now, I know He will open up new doors to bigger and better things.
So i am giving the control of my life to God (after all, He really does know what is best for me),
(Who knows me and and my need’s better than God?).
Good things are too come when we allow God to have control,
All we have to do is give up our stubbornness and our control freakness (is that a word?)
And He will guide us to where we need to be, And He will bring us the things that He want’s for our lives.
So God, I give up everything to You, I lay all my cares, My worries, My problems and my fears in Your hands.
I will follow you into the unknown of my life.
(pun intended) Jesus take the wheel! (that was for PB)
Overwhelming Blessing.
Wow!! That is all i can say about how good God has been to me.
Let’s start with the newest news…..
I just found out that i am going to be promoted at work,
So i will be an assistant manager!!!
Which means more hours, and more pay!!
God is so good to have opened this door for me.
Let’s see… what else can i tell you…..
He has just been so amazing in my life.
How about worship?.. that’s a good place to stop and talk.
Worship….
I never realized it but i was starting to get into this place, Of singing the same songs.
Don’t get me wrong, I would still worship Him, and I love to worship.
But the songs weren’t meaning anything to me.
I don’t know what God did, But He changed something in me.
All of a sudden the same songs we sing every week seem like new.
There is his new meaning behind them now, It’s like all of a sudden my eyes have been opened to this whole new beauty, Of worship.
I feel so blessed the i get to worship Him, and be close to Him.
How about life?….
Life…
I am so happy where i am at!
I was going though a time where i just wasn’t happy with my life, I wanted things that i didn’t need yet.
But God, Has shown me all the amazing things that i already have in my life, Why spoil that with new things?
I am so happy with life right now.
Time’s may get hard, But i know God will always be there for me.
Well that is where i am at right now,
I will try to write more often.
Safe zone
I don’t know about you, But i wish i had a safe place to go, Somewhere that i could be myself, Be who i want to be without being judged.
I found that place when i worship,
Worship is where i feel the safest, Like i can be me.
I have complete freedom and abandonment, without any judgment.
No one will care if i laugh, Cry, Shout or just be completely still.
God has created a place that we can go to escape the world,
And come into a safe zone, and be alone with Him.
Where he can love on us, and us on Him.
We can be together without having to worry about what anyone thinks about you, Because no one else matters when you are with your Father.
You know when you were little, and something would hurt you, You would run to your daddy because you knew you were safe by his side.
It is like that when we are with out Heavenly Father.
We are safe in his arms, He wants to protect us, And be there for us when we do get hurt or fall down.
He want’s to be able to pick us up.
All we have to do, is go to our safe zone.
Redding
EEEEKK!!!
I am going to redding in june to go to a worship conference, I am so excited!!
I know that God is going to move so strong, it is going to be amazing.
It is going to be an expensive trip, but i know that it is what God wants me to do,
So He will work everything out.
I can’t WAIT!!!!!
Worship
Ahh the beauty of worship
The beauty of people gathering together to worship God.
The beauty of feeding off of each others passion for God, and becoming more passionate yourself.
The beauty of getting closer to God through music, and your love for each other.
The beauty of feeling like it’s just you and God, and you can express yourself however you want.
The beauty of allowing God to teach you new ways of worship, just by opening your heart to him.
The beauty of being able to touch others through your worship.
The beauty of touching God through your worship.
The beauty of hearing God speak, and being able to deliver that word through song.
The beauty of being an open vessel of the Holy Spirit.
The beauty of watching others grow in their own worship relationship with God
The beauty of hearts being made new through worship
The beauty of the Father’s hand reaching down to embrace us as we worship.
The beauty of knowing that at that moment nothing else matters.
The beauty of all the pain being taken away.
The beauty of feeling God’s love all around you when you worship.
The beauty of being able to scream and shout, but also being able to be still, and knowing He hears you either way.
The beauty of knowing we are not alone in this world, for God sent his only Son down to us, To die, Just so we can have relationship with Him, Free from sin.
So we can have a worship relationship with Him.
The beauty of our worship to our Father.
I am
So tonight (Thursday), God revealed to me some new things.
He showed me that i am who i am, and i don’t need to try to be anyone else except myself.
I am different for a reason, He made me this way.
With that said, I am going to tell you what/who i am.
I am a woman of God…… NO! I am a strong woman of God. I am a worshiper. I am beautiful. I am smart. I am a leader. I am His child. I am created for a purpose. I am new in Him. I am a disciple. I am filled.
It is so hard to put everything into words. It is like there is so much that He gave me i am going to explode.
I feel “whole”, like i didn’t think i was in-complete before, But now i feel this “whole-ness” that wasn’t there before.
I feel confident in who i am, and who i am becoming. That it doesn’t matter what anyone else thinks. I know i am where i am supposed to be with God, and i am following Him. Even if it means feeling left out some times. I know that in the end i am not left out, i am part of the biggest thing ever.
And God just keeps showing me this vision of me leading worship in front of a bunch of people, and His glory coming down.
I want that to happen so bad.
It’s like “How will this ever happen”, But God would never give me a vision of something that i couldn’t achieve. But i can’t do it alone, I need God for it to happen.
And i know one day that vision will come true.
God also took away my doubt that He could use me.
I knew He could use me in worship, But i wasn’t sure He would use me in any other way.
I figured that was my one gift, and somebody else had a different gift to use.
But tonight i just felt God saying “healing” and i wasn’t sure why.
I was like “ok, somebody is going to get healed tonight”.
Then PB said that God wasa giving someone healing to give to Annette,
well i was just thinking that God was telling me there was going to be a healing.
It wasn’t until no one else stepped up and said that’s me, that i realized “oh, Maybe God was giving me healing, DUH!!!”
It was so amazing to feel that God could use me in other ways also.
I feel more driven then ever to dive into His presence,
I want to see what else He has for me, and for other people.
I know God is not done moving in us.
This is just the beginning.
So i am going to begin to pray that God would begin to make that vision come true.
I know it will not just happen out of no where,
But it will be something to work up to.
I feel so free,
Free from all the past things that have held me back,
all those things that judged me when i would step out.
They don’t matter.
I am who God had created me to be!!
