Pray the Hardest, when it is the hardest to pray

I was study the first 25 verses of Genesis for my Bible study this week and those 25 verses hit me in a way they never did before. For the first 6 days, He knew what He wanted and it was good. He made the sky, land, sun, moon, plants, and animals. He saved the best for last of course, humans or He thought He did. He did everything in a order too, which is important in our lives. We have to see what God wants, sperpate sin from God, and then plant those seeds so God can let them grow and produce more or something along those lines. God used the Sun, moon, and stars to light the way. To me, that is like The Father, Son, and Holdy Spirit. Then I got to thinking about the Garden of Eden and what Eve did there. Everything in the garden was good she had all she needed but she had a free choice. Look at it from a child's point of view. When a child is born, that child is innocence no matter what world they come into. God made each of us for a purpose so on that child's heart there is ...

Homeless is not a word a child should know. A 5 year old child should not say, "I'm tired of being homeless." Just broke my heart. This child is the sweetest thing yet but yet she has been moved from place to place whether family or different shelters. For those of who you know me and my heart, I couldn't help think of the other 500,000 children in Guatemala that are really homeless. This child has no idea what they have but they shouldn't have nothing at this age. They should have everything they have ever wanted. Ok, maybe not everything they have wanted but close to it. They should have parents that love them and a home to live in. They should not be calling themselves homeless. They shouldn't even know that word or what it means. If this child thinks they're homeless and if I think they are homeless which I don't think they are because I know what happens. Makes me think what goes on in the childrens' head in Guatemala or other poor countries. ...

Purple Robe of Love for Children When you think of the color purple, Do you think royalty? Do you think That it might have been the color Of the robe that Jesus had on before Going to the cross? Would it be wrong To call that robe “Love?” The father put his robe on his lost son That came back. He did that to show him Love and that he was welcomed back in The family no matter what he did. He Didn’t keep it to himself because his son Didn’t deserve it. Yet what are we doing? Are we doing just that? Keeping that robe To ourselves? If we would to put the purple robe on Children, what would that make them? If we showed them God’s Amazing Love, It would give them Hope. It would also Give them Love and Trust. It would also Give them the confidence to grow stronger For God. They could believe in a Father who Loves them too death. They could become kings and queens for Kingdom and their country or home. They Could feel loved because ...

         This is going to be a fast one because I've been sick all weekend and still am so if it doesn't make sense, I'm sorry. For those of who you know me, Guatemala has been on my heart since last summer and has never stopped being on my heart. The children there are beautiful and adorable. Just looking into their eyes you can tell their stories almost or want to get to know their stories. Every child has a story to tell. I would like to go next summer, if God is willing, and stay longer after that or another time whenever God wants me to or go with another group and stay longer. I have a way that I could raise money and get my mind off of things from work over the weekends and weekdays when I'm home. It is to make yo-yo teddy bears for the children. It's a dream of mine.            Yo-yoing is a type of sewing that you do. You can make anything out of them like blankets, any animals, hair things (headbands, clips, which I might...

Greater Plans Inspired by: Matthew 6:12, Luke 12:34, and a friend We might be down and in The dumps sometimes but We have to remember one Important thing. God has a Greater plan for us. We might be going through Thick and thin. God has a Greater plan for us. He is just Using those hard times to make Us stronger and wiser. We might be thinking, what is Our Greater Plan here on earth. That way of thinking is selfish Though. It’s not about what we Gain while on this earth. It’s more About spiritual gain. God grows us Spiritually so we can work for Him More. Our treasures are not here where Moths can destroy it. It’s in Heaven with God. We might think That we are getting ready for Something greater here but on Earth. What God is really doing is Getting us ready for his Greater Plan for the whole earth. We might feel like we are a part of A little part of a little something Now. Even if it was greater then the Las...

         It strange how God works some converations out for us to be reminded of things or to learn new things. For me, it never seems to fail with this friend of mine and every time we take the time to talk. I haven't talked to this friend for awhile because of the busyness of life for the both of us but I got to talk to them Sunday and it was just strange but a blessing at the same time. They gave me a phase to think about during my week at work. It also helps if your friend knows kind of what you are going through at work if anything.           I need to start a page or another blog where it is just points to ponder from this friend but I won't do that because it might embrass the friend. :) The point this friend gave me this week was "that it could always be worse" and that hit me home because of where I work. Here I was saying that I was "stuck" here instead of traveling when I have a choice to be stuck where I am and the chil...

           I'm finilly updating about my life for those of you who read this. God has been working in it and lately I have felt like it has just been Him and me plus my kiddos. A lot has happened in the past month. Things I'm proud of and things I want to change. Just these past two weeks God gave me a reality check for my life. I feel lost and confused right now but isn't that where we need to be so we can depend on God to use us. I'm learning that God has a big sense of humor with everything. Not this last week but the week before I locked my keys in my car at work and that was a mess. I had to sit outside by my car and wait for someone to come unlock it and I can't really tell you all the thoughts that I had in my mind or that happened but God has his ways of getting things done. Then that same week that I locked my keys in my car, my science boy came back, which is sad in a way but glad to see him again. You have mixed feelings when you work at a place ...

Little Girl, You’re Beautiful Little girl, you’re beautiful. So full of innocence and Beauty. Beautiful on the inside And the outside. In your mind, You’re so confused. What is Happening? Why do I feel this Way? I’m suppose to be beautiful But I don’t feel like it. Little girl, your eyes spakle like Wheat. Those eyes that as seen Nothing but bad. Yet when you Look in them there is so much Hidden inside. Wonder fills your Eyes. Little girl, your hugs are so tight. They make my day when I need It made. They are something that I won’t forget. They are how you Hold on for dear life. I would hold You for hours, if I could, safely in My arms. I wouldn’t let you go if I had a choice. Little girl, you’re so smart. You Have been through a lot already. More then you should have been Through. You are trying to make Sense of it and trying to figure Out why. You will know why soon Enough and can share it with Others. You will c...

Sorry it is another poem. That is all I have time for right now and I want to keep you all interested in my blog. Please keep looking because God has been moving in my life so much these past few days and I want to write about them by Saturday night. I'm just amazed at how He has put things in my path and taught me things when I will turn to Him whether doing things or personal, deep things I need to change about myself or just learn for the future.  The Heart The heart is a very fragile, yet Confusing thing. It speaks with Words that we don’t understand. It’s the place where everything is Hidden but it shouldn’t be. The Heart should be God’s throne.   It Should be a place for the good things In life but isn’t. We hide things in there. It is full of other things. Things we don’t Want other people to see about us. Deep Things that we are scared to share about Ourselves. We think no one can see in there Or cares about what is in there but ...

Guatemala As I was riding up the mountain To my place of destination on the bumpy, brick roads, I was looking out The window and thinking, “What Am I getting myself into?” Looking At all the small concrete buildings, people Walking on the streets, and the Closeness of the buildings.   It just seemed Like it was just put there without a plan. I got to my destination up in mountains And I was blessed, beyond belief, to have What I did. The mountains were so pretty. The house and orphanage were great too. After a few days, how I longed to be back in The city that I passed so I could see the real city And understand their life. I spent days playing with the Guatemalan Children both boys and girls. I even went Into their rooms and thought, “This is What an orphanage looks like. So small And tight in area.” It has always been my Dream to go visit at least one. I loved every minute of it. The little children Had a play area that...

             Sorry about the title it is the best that I can come up with right now. Sorry, also, that I haven't been writing in awhile. I have been wanting to but so much going on and to think about so I could write on here. I've had a strange and hard week this week. I will tell more about it later but God has really been growing me and making me see things. I want to write a prayer about the things I have been learning from Him lately because they are good things to keep praying for everyday. I want it to be like "The Serenity Prayer" but for now the title is all I could come up with. Here it is in it 1st form:           Daddy,                 You love me, you care about me, and You are calling me. Calling me by asking the questions: Have you talked to Me lately about that?, What am I saying to you about this? By asking those questions You are making a clean heart in me, ...

Have You Talked to God About It? Inspired By: a friend Have you talked to God about Your future. Have you ever Wanted an answer now but Didn’t get it? You would stop Talking about it to Him because It took too long? We are in a world where we Want it now or never. We want Progress now but God doesn’t Do things our way. He waits for The perfect timing. I think it is good that we talk to God about things. See what He Has to say about them or my life. See where He wants me now. I found out we could be talking to God for a year or more. He could Be showing us little things along The way. We just have to keep out Eyes open. We could even go back and forth on The subject. We could even forget for Sometime but God is still working. He Is working out the desires of our hearts. If it is truly a desire then He will never Put a stop to in. We can talk to God about anything. From our day to our future. Have you Talk to G...
