Love Life with God

Today my dad did a sermon on what our relationship with God should be like. We are love God as a woman/bride/wife is to love her man/groom/husband. We have got to work for the relationship just as you would in a marriage. You have to work with Him, communicate with Him, seek Him, and spend time with Him. A couple has to learn to work together and do things together. We have to work with God and do things with Him. We have to communicate our thoughts to Him so that He can know how we feel. He also communicates His thoughts to us. We also have to seek Him and learn to think like Him. We cannot automatically know what each other is thinking so we have to work at thinking like Him. We can do that by reading His word and spending time with Him. Enoch (one of those cool guys in the Bible) walked with God. He was in God's presence all the time. In everything he did, God was there with him. We should strive and work to have a relationship with God. Jesus worked to talk and be with God. All of the people whom we consider great christians worked to have a relationship with God. We cannot have a relationship with God unless we work for it. It cannot be one-sided either, both people have to work together. A man and woman have to work together to make a life together. It's the same with God. He wants us to be His bride and He is fighting for us. In return if we truly love Him, we will fight and strive to have a relationship with Him.

Use of Everyday Words

I have finally decided that I don't like the chatroom or texting talk. I'm so tired of people being so lazy that they can't type out "How are you"! It's so frustrating because there are so many different acronyms now that I almost have to decode everything. It was cool at first when it was ty for thank you and yw for your welcome especially if you were in the middle of a game or something. I could understand that but OH MY GOODNESS! For the love of the grammer nazis please type out all the rest of your words! You must not realize how stupid you look when you leave out letters or use one letter for a word. People have either gotten lazy or stupid. Quite possibly both. I may not be the best at spelling or at grammer but I at least know the basics. I try to take some pride in knowing the parts of speech (for those of you that don't know what those are: nouns, verbs, etc.), definitions of words, spelling of words, and how to form a sentence. Now for you who are like,"well I'm not stupid or lazy, your just a smartass, overachiever and a know it all. The rest of us are average." No I am not. There are plenty of people that are much smarter than I am. I would be considered the average person which means that YOU, yes you, would be considered less than average. It's nobody's fault but your own. I cannot be responsible for your lack of intelligence or desire for it. If you want to show the world that you're proud of being stupid and use words that prove it that's your business. Mind you, I and many other people will get onto you about how you are incompetent because YOU, yes you again, have the chance to use your brain and you have schools that not everyone has access to in the rest of the world. God gave you a brain, the tools to tone it, and people who are willing to help. Use them! I am through with my rant now. I'm sorry if my thoughts are slightly scattered and all of what I just said isn't organized. I will continue to try to make my thoughts come out in a much more professional manner.

A Royal Priesthood

Before a king, queen, prince, or princess can wear a crown on their head they have to kneel and submit themselves to God and country. Once they have kneeled and submitted they rise to greatness. In God's eyes we are His children and because He is the High King we are destined to princes and princesses under Him. We have to pledge ourselves to Him before He can crown us and make us great. If we can submit then He will place a crown our our head, take our hand, and raise us up to greatness. Sometimes the princes and princesses betray the King and rule in their own way, their lives will end in sorrow, hatred, and anger. But the ones that truly love the king are the ones who are truly great. Their lives ended in love, respect,and a legacy left behind.

Don't Stay Put, Move Forward!!

In the past couple of weeks I have been learning that in life I should keep moving and not stay still. One of my biggest problems right now is that I'm scared to move, but regardless of that I need to go somewhere. I am planning on starting college in the fall. I don't know if that's where I am suppose to be but I am confident that God will show me the way. If it's not the right way I can always move to a different direction. It's hard to actually start moving but I can't stay still for very long. Being still is worse than being scared for me right now. This is a short blog since it's my first and hopefully they'll get longer as I entertain the world with my random thought process.
