Discontentment

I'm so disappointed.
Everywhere around me I hear people calling themselves Christians, and then trying to find loopholes to get them out of actually following the word of Jesus!
What's going on?
What is wrong with people nowdays?

Do you really think you can make up stuff about Jesus and He won't hear about it?
Do you think He's not going to care?
Do you think God made up all the rules just for Himself?
Do you really think you can get by with this?

God knows everything you do, say or think. He knows your heart, and he knows your sins.
He loves you so much, He died for you! But he's not going to let you make up your own rules.
It just doesn't work that way.

You can't say you love Jesus,
And then not love your neighbor!
Blind man!
Open your eyes and see the love of God,
Our Father,
In heaven,
Who loves us.

Who loves us all.

Look Into My Eyes

~And you will see, What you mean to me~

Sometimes, things don't turn out the way we expected.
Sometimes, the fork in the road just doesn't make sense.
Sometimes, the burden just feels too heavy to bear.
But then I remember the words of Matthew 11, 28-30,

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,
For I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.

Thank you Lord, for your yoke,
I just don't want mine anymore.
Many times I've tried to give up my burdens,
But somehow, they manage to creep back into my life.
Lord, I pray that you will show me how
To live my life for you.
To Glorify You!
And only You!
I pray for guidance,
I pray for peace,
I pray for your will
For my life.
For everything I do, I do it for you.

I can hardly wait

Song of Solomon 2:12

Flowers appear on the earth;
the season of singing has come,
the cooing of doves
is heard in our land.

I'm ready: ready for spring, ready for Easter, for the rebirth of the land. My joyful heart leaps in anticipation.

Coincidence? I don't think so...

Globally, there are more than 1 billion overweight adults, at least 300 million of them obese.

Globally, there are more than a billion people who are hungry, almost 16,000 children die each day. Thats one child who dies every 5 seconds.

A billion with too much, and a billion with not enough.
