Sex, drugs, crack, hate, and JESUS!

Alright yall. It all comes down ta dis: The world leaves ya empty, I know, I tried it just like you. You can't go ta most churches because they judge and hate and theres mostly just old people in dere. Sex feels good, as does alot of other things, but if the only time you feel complete, whole, fixed or fulfilled is after a night of bangin' then there might just be somethin' missin'! Ya think? If da only time you feel good or complete is after doing your addiction than dats a pretty sucky life. Dere is freedom. Dere is a way out! Dere is an answer! JESUS! Not church, not sex, not drugs, not blood, not death, not cars, not dreams, not porn. Non of dat will set you free. Non of it. Jesus Christ can, and will, set you free. You can trust Him, He has never let you down. Give Him your everthing. Give your addiction your pain, your anger, your hate, your tears, your fears and everything else. Nothin' else works, mabey you've aleady tried everything and aleady know this. Cry out, He will hear you. He promises. It works. Jesus will set you free. JESUS!

Its all about Jesus!

Jesus is fo rizzle n dats fo shizzle! Ya feel me? Sweet. Dats all I got!

Be blessed! He's just waiting fo ya ta allow Him to pur out da blessin's. Ya know?

Its my Birthday!

March 27th, Reserrection Sunday, and its my Birthday. I am now 19. I started fallowing Christ 3 months before my 17th birthday and I have been following Christ deeper and deeper every year. It is cool to be able to give this 19th year to Him, and know that I can do it better than last year. God is so good. I was just talking to God last night and we were talking about how, if I had not gave my life to Him when I did, I don't think I would be alive today, spiritualy or physicaly. The devil would have won. BUT, the devil did not win and I am living in victory and peace and joy and blessing now. All becouse I chose Christ and let Him have His way in me. THE BEST DECISION I EVER MADE. And He doesn't ask hard things of me in return. With the Holy Spirit helping me, its all possible. God is so good and I wouldn't go back and change the decsion I made for anything. Not for anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

God bless!!!!!!!!!!!! More than you can contain!!!!!!!!!!!

It is worth it! It really is!

Alright Steph, you're right, I haven't posted a new post thing in months.

Did ya all know that Kutless just came out with a new cd. Now I love rap, its all about rap...but, this is not just any Kutless cd. It is a worship cd. A hard rock worship cd. It's great! They have got some new songs (that hit hard when you have some bass turned up) and they also have some known worship songs. I have to give them a 10, ya know what I'm say'in? They did an awesome job. Its called 'Stong Tower'.

As for rap, check out the new boy, Benjiman. He's new, he's white, he's Christian and he's good! He raps with electric gituar goin' on and it hits. Good lyrics too. I can't forget D-Note, he's new and good too.

Alright, on a personal note. Can I tell you all how important it is to have a prayer time, dayly (if that how you spell it). It is impossable to get to that intimate fellowship. To become intimate lovers. To fall hopelessly in love with Him. To walk fully in that romance He is calling you to, without setting aside that time with Him alone (longer that 15 minutes) every day. It is impossable. It sounds boreing, its not! It is sometimes hard, but I can honestly say that there is nothing I would like to do more (on a regular basis) than study the Word and spend time with the Lover of my soul. This did not happin over night, but I would not go back and change it fo nothin'. Sandy just so happened to preach a message on this last night, so if you would like scriptures to back this up, plz let me know.

I will try to post more often. God bless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like it!

I thought I'd write something before they like eraised me or somthing. So here we go...

Newsboys has a awesome new cd. Heres some lyrics:

Strong and mighty/ storng to save us/ like a fortess/ never failing--stong in battle/ storng in kindness/ when we stray. Lord/ You're strong to find us--when the winds come hard against us/ You are steadfast, You are true/ when the ground beneath us trembles/ Your foundation never moves--Strong Tower/ High and glorious/ Strong Tower/ Mighty in love/ Our Refuge/ Our Defender/ Strong Tower/ Lord Above--Strong to lead us/ though the shadows/ strong to carry/ All our sarrows--when the enemy surrounds us/ closing in as darkness falls/ though his armies rage against us/ they can never scale these walls--Strong Tower/ High and glorious/ Strong Tower/ Mighty in love/ Our Refuge/ Our Defender/ Strong Tower/ Lord Above--You are my shelter, my shield/ You are my home I could never deserve/ here I will serve, ever under Your gaze/ here I will serve, ever singing You praise--Strong Tower/ High and glorious/ Strong Tower/ Mighty in love/ Our Refuge/ Our Defender/ Strong Tower/ Lord Above

Presenting the Holy Spirit

Giving honor is a prerequisite for having healthy relationships. We hear much teaching today about how to gibve honor in all our relationships, with both family and friends. Honor is defined as, simply, the esteem and respect bestowed on a person. The Holy Spirit teaches us how to honor God first and then how to bring that attitude to all our other relationships. We honor the Holy Spirit by acknowledging Him in all our ways, looking to Him as our Counselor, Comforter, and divine Guide into all the truth. He is honored when we esteem the Word of God and obey it. Paul instructed Christains "...in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves" (Phil. 2:3). as the humility of Christ is worked into our relationships with one another, we honor one another as well as God. This wonderful Third Person of the Godhead can make our lives victorious as we learn to hear and obey Him in all things. It is our responsibility to respond properly to Him by yielding to Him in obedience, by believing Him, and honoring Him in the living of our lives. We need to realize that we are responding to a Person, not to an influence or an "it." His loving response to us will encourage us to strengthen our relationship wo us will encourage us to strenghten our relationship with Him. As we mature in our walk with God, we can know the true heart satisfaction in relating to the Holy Spirit as a Person and by enjoying His response to us as beloved children of God.

Newsboys Baby!

We saw the newsboys last night at the Fresno fair. No, I'm sorry. Lets try that again. We went to see the Newsboys at the Fresno Fair last night. How was that? Better? ok. It was great. Karen loved it, Kelly cryed at the message, Keith got fed by the message and I enjoyed jumping up and down. They sang Shine (of course), Holy Holy is our God Almighty, Cap'n Crunch and many others. O hay, they also did the Tree 63s song "Blessed be the name of the Lord"! Thats was cool! I enjoy sing that song to Jesus so much, it was so cool to do it with a group of people with the Newsboys leading worship! They put on a good show to. The best part is the everyone had fun. Afterwards we went on some rides. I lost half of my change on one of them, but its all good. It was so tight. We were in this thing and it like would like go around in circles and than like stop upside down (thats when I lost all my change) and we would like go like really really fast in circles. It was like totally cool dude. Anyway, O, yah, if Kelly had not been there we would have gotten lost like, who knows how many times (Well God does but anyway). Alright everybody. Jesus Christ for Life son. We be a New Hope Generation.

PS: I love it, Kelly didn't think I was a Christian when she first met me beacuse of the way I dressed. I love it! Thank you Jesus! It was great. She thought my chains wasn't Christian. I'm not matching the norm, what do ya know. Can ya believe that? Who woulda thought? Christains can be cool do baby. Thats fa shizzle!

Theres only one King...thats Jesus. No one else!
