You have a Secret Admirer

When do you think about God? 
Do you know that God thinks about you all the time?  

 Psalm 139:17-18

How precious are Your thoughts to me, O God!  How great is the sum of them!  If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand...




God is your secret admirer.  He thinks about you more than the number of the sand!  Can you believe that?  The Creator of life and death, of this earth and the moon and stars, of everything, admires you!  And He wants you to admire Him, too.  He longs to have a relationship with you, and knows that you need Him in order to have life eternal.
Your Secret Admirer wrote you a very long love letter, called the Bible.  Don't you think if someone was in love with you and spent the time to write you a long, truthful and loving love letter; shouldn't you read it?  
Let's say perhaps it was from your Dad, and he was away in the Navy somewhere, and this was the only letter you got from him.  Would you simply crumble it up or set it away and never read it?  
God did that for us...He admires you, and He wants you to know what its like to know Him.  
 You find your answer to knowing God in His giant love letter to you. 

 John 3:16

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him, shall not perish but have everlasting life.

God sent Jesus Christ His only Son to die on the cross when you and I were the ones that deserved Hell and death; but God gives us hope through His Son!  When you repent and believe in Jesus, you are saved!    What greater love has any secret admirer than that?  None!  

And guess what?  It's not a secret any longer!

Little friend of ours...amazing talent!


It's amazing how God can use even the little children....to point toward Him with their gifts.  
Watch this and you tell me if God hasn't gifted this little boy!
(Oh, and he's a homeschooler, too. :)

Our Little 'Church'

This is me playing the piano.
I'm playing 'Lord I'm coming home'




Love in Grace. Gracefully forgiving and letting go.

I know I'm needy of grace, LOTS of times in my life.  Even in one minute, isn't it strange how easy it is to mess up and say something that you didn't mean, something that afterward, you were like: "Where did that come from?"  I know we've all been in that place. 
But at church today, my Pastor spoke of prayer.  Prayer is more important that many people value it as.  You are saved by crying out to God for forgiveness, (by praying to Him, crying out to Him), Jesus only had to say the word and the Heavens were formed.  He got alone and prayed to His Father.  He not only did it for example, but because He truly wanted to grow closer to His Dad. 
Do we seek God that way?  Are we praying to Him, asking Him for forgiveness when we fail, and then getting back up again and giving grace to our siblings, our moms and dads, everyone? 
None of us are perfect, but spending time alone in prayer is going to continue to shape you more like the One that is the Ultimate Shaper.

So pray.
And don't be afraid to tell God your heart....

that's the most powerful prayer.

In Christ,
Samantha

Enjoying the Moments with Family



After a long time of not seeing my Aunt Yolanda, Uncle Kevin and my cousins, it was so good to spend time with them!  They live in Texas, so the last time I saw them was like a year and a half ago!  It's AMAZING on how fast kids grow, its CRAZY!  But simply enjoying the moments with them is a way to make it seem to go by slower...even if you can't stop them from growing!

"Now, therefore," Says the Lord, "Turn to Me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping.."

"Now, therefore,"  Says the Lord, "Turn to Me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping.."
Joel 2:12
