When you conform to this jaded world, you are "cheating on" God. You have the wrong driving force behind your desires. It is crystal clear- BLACK and WHITE- that we cannot be considered friends with the world, AND friends of God. [James 4:1-12]
prretty powerful stuff, huh?
oh, and last week i read something that made me think..i mean really contemplate the things I say... i was reading James [Ch's 1-3] aand basically it says: one cannot speak praises and cursing out of the same mouth; you cannot speak words of discouragement and vulgarity if you claim to praise God and lift those around you up. to quote James 3:5 "So also, the tongue is a small thing, but what damage it can do. ...Blessing and Cursing cannot come out of the same mouth."
period.
i have too much to say to wriiiite. agghh.
Lord God Almighty, you are the one and only God. You created every individual, every creature, every miraculous design of this earth. I was just looking at the moon on my way home from Alexa's and it amazes me the beauty you have made. You are my creator. My savioR. THANK YOU for my life. i love my life. i may get discouraged or down cast at timees, but you're always there, waiting for me to call on you. PLEASE intervene in my life. make it CLEAR, no doubts, what college you want me to go to. I'm almost positive it's Grace College in Indiana, but i want it to be undeniably obvious to me. I pray for any others who are continuing to look for a college, or those who have even found a college, i pray that you direct them. put it in their minds where they need to go. provide ways for those less fortunate to find a way to pay for colllege. protect the WORLD, Lord. i love you so much. forgive me for allll of my sins..
Amen.
