*The List*

What I want to achieve before too long. . .
1) Full blown servant for God, opening myself up for what ever he puts in front of me
2) A better sister and daughter, a young woman that is selfless and full of God
3) A role model, one that is humble, but willing to be there for other young women
4) An encourager far greater than the norm. . .one that God would be pleased with
5) Willing to accept the will of God, take things the devil throws and hand them to God
6) A cheerleader for God, a young woman ready to stand up and proclaim God's Word

Nothing Is Impossible With God!!! I can become those things, but only through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Tell me what you would like to be for God  : D

What are you living for?

"Is what you live for worth dying for?" 

idols. . .gods. . .addictions. . .you can call them anything you want but they are there.  Here are a few.

*Money
*Relationships
*Shopping/Clothes
*Appearance
*Work/jobs

Do these sound familiar? They do to me.  Like any human being I have trouble with 'other' idols, apart from God.  I have to constantly remind myself that my eyes need to be on God and not on worldly things.  God talks about storing up the right kind of treasures in Matthew 6:19-24.  I think Mary had it right, she treasured up what she experienced and pondered it on her heart, in Luke 2:19.  Paul also says we need to think on whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, and if anything is excellent or praiseworthy. Those are the things we need to think on and ponder.  :) So try that, whenever you are pondering things ask yourself if they meet the qualifications of above. 

So what are you living for?  Are you living for that next paycheck so you can go shopping?  Are you living for the next set of new make-up?  Are you living for that moment that you get to see that special someone?  We should be living in a way that glorifies God.

Rise and Sing!!!

If you were bound but now you're free, rise & sing, rise & sing.
Lift up a shout of victory, rise & sing, rise & sing.

Our God is risen and reigning and we're elevating the glory of our God and King, everybody rise & sing.

It's in your heart rings a melody, rise & sing, rise & sing.
If you have tasted and you have seen, rise & sing, rise & sing.

Our God is risen and reigning and we're elevating the glory of our God and King, everybody rise & sing.

Let the redeemed of the Lord sing hallelujah, hallelujah.
Let the redeemed of the Lord sing our God reigns, our God reigns.

Let the redeemed of the Lord sing hallelujah, hallelujah.
Let the redeemed of the Lord sing our God reigns, our God reigns.

Our God is risen and reigning and we're elevating the glory of our God and King.
'Cause Our God is risen and reigning and we're elevating the glory of our God and King
'Cause Our God is risen and reigning and we're elevating the glory of our God and King, everybody rise & sing.
