livin out loud!

man--i'm so so XCITED!!! IF THERE'S ONE THING that xcites me alot it's when youth are on Fire for God!!
It's AMazing what one can achieve when they let God use them!! Man i
still remember my youth days...(not that i'm old or
anything..hehehe..i'm only 25--i'm still a youth!!) i remember carrying
my bright yellow backpack around the halls in highschooll--with bible verses written allover it & big letters that spelled our JESUSFREAK!! and you know what i sure did get alot of weird stares and snickers...but i didn't care...i was LIVING OUT LOUD for my GOD!!!
and u know what ? i'm so glad that when God got ahold of me...HE sure
did...He's never let go...(and u know what --He never does--WE are the
ones that sometimes do) YOu know..that we get TirEd of everyday LIFe
and we're like dang, Theres' gotta be something more...and you know
there is...Jesus..whom gave the UltimATe Price for our SalVation and so
WE may know HIM!! Everything is just better with HIM!! Now i'll be
Honest...don't believe those that say oh''when u become Christian
everything is aways for the better and there will be no
problems....lie...we still have our own struggles, trials, etc...but in
the midst of it all...God is there!! He has sent his HOLY SPIRIT to
comfort us!!! when we go through tribulations thats when we hang on to
God even tighter..i thank GOd for any problems or struggles i've had
b/c they've made me stronger, they've taught me to depend on HIM,
they've reminded me to look to HIM --incase i got off track!!! There's
so much we need to learn and apply to our lives...the way we
think...the way we feel...the way we love..the way we work...what's
really important..what bugs us...(ok one thing that bugs me is
Christians who give off the wrong picture to others and therefore we
All get a bad reputation...ine xample<..> there are those out
there that say they love Jesus,,,,but aren't showing it....yea they
love jesus but just with their words and mouth...not like God wants us
to love HIM: in spirit and in Truth, amaras a Dios con todas tu corazon, todas tus fuerzas y toda tu alma... they haven't been completely "TRANSFOrmed"
<..>and for those of you who might be...like ...is she talking to
me...No, i'm not...God Is! We depart from the things of this world,,,in
example--and people u know i don't even have to do this....swearing,
drinking...hat'n...there's just so much....but anyways despite all of
this that i'm saying God gives us FREEWIll....thats'
really to do what we want...He loves us that much that HE would never
Force us to do anything we don't want to...For those of you who agree
w/me...right on..lets keep praying' for those who need more
understanding and those who really need to beTRANSFORMED..TO MAKE IT
REAL..TO HAVE THAT RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD AND NOT THE RELIGION...(RELIGION DOES NOT SAVE US...JESUS..DOES!) my
prayer is to pray for the youth!!! cada dia se pierden mas y mas..we
need to lead them to Gods feet...LET US BE AN ENCOURAGEMENT TO
OTHERS..TO LOVE IN GOD'S LOVE..NOT TO PUSH ANYONE DOWN OR POINT FINGERS!!NO NO NO....THEN WHAT DOES THAT SAY ABOUT US? AND MORE IMPORTANTLY GOD'S LOVE!!!
IT IS NOT TO OPRESS PEOPLE AND BE LIKE " NO UR WRONG AND I'M RIGHT" LET
GOD TAKE CARE OF THAT ...REMEMBER THAT IT IS AND INDIVIDUAL THING...U ARE NOT GONNA SAVE ANYONE AND NO ONE IS GONNA SAVE YOU!!!!!!
U R ON YOUR OWN SALVATION RIDE W/ GOD...IN THAT RIDE WE CAN ONLY LIFT
UP HIS NAME,,,,SHOW GOD'S LOVE...AND TRY TO HELP AND ENCOURAGE
OTHERS...WHEN ONE FALLS DO NOT LAUGH OR TALK BAD ABOUT THEM...EXTEND UR
HAND AND HELP THEM....REALLY CARE ABOUT OTHERS...B/C WE ARE ALL MADE IN
HIS IMAGE..REMEMBER THAT...GOD LOVES SINNERS...ITS THE SIN HE DESPISES..NOT THE PERSON...WHILE WE ARE ALIVE THERE IS STILL HOPE...BUT ONCE WE DIE ...IT'S TOO LATE IF WE DIDN'T MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE.... i luv u all and hope that this was an encouragement to you and that God can open ur heart to recieve the true message...luv ya! LIVE FOR GOD ONE DAY AT A TIME!!

Liv'n out loud...where has it gone?!!

"Here I am once again, I'm in need of resurrection..." I love these lyrics because they are so true, there is no faking it, just accepting it --that sometimes we let "this" happen to us. "This" as in, we put our guard down, our "armour", we stop spending that much needed time with our Lord. Then it weighs down and you don't know what to do with it, eventhough we know we have this AMAZING, FORGIVING, MERCIFUL, GREAT GOD!! We seem to make Him "small" and forget everything HE is...If you feel this way, bow your head, close your eyes, open your heart and give it all to God, Pray that He removes all impurities and unwanted feelings, heaviness and that He replaces with HIS UNENDING LOVE AND MERCY, that His Joy and HolySpirit will abide in us...All I want to be is that Proverbs 31 woman. Someone chasing after God with all her heart to only please Him and live in His ways to be an encouragement to others and that His Name will be Glorified and Praised!! I want to go ahead and take the time to invite you to visit www.joyinthetruth.blogspot.com with Sharon, I've been reading her blog or going back to a couple of posts, like "Finding out what pleases God", everytime I need some encouragement. We're all in the same boat, we all want to finish the race and be in awe of our Lord's prescence, let us encourage one another so that we do not go weary.
