I lift my eyes up to the mountains
Where does my help come from
My help comes from You
Maker of heaven, creator of the earth
Oh how I need You Lord
You are my only hope
You’re my only prayer
So I will wait for You
To come and rescue me
Come and give me life
Based off Psalm 121
Here are a few pictures that I have taken of the beautiful sky! God is so faithful!
Looking at these pictures…How can you doubt that there is a God who created all of this! His name is Jesus!
I love the feel and the colors of this polaroid…that’s all 🙂
Last night we had a family that has been a blessing to James and I in so many ways over for our dinner/Bible study. This family hosts a Bible study at their house Monday nights and their goal has been to send out more people to start more home studies. This is something James and I have wanted to do, and even talked about while we were dating. James and I so enjoyed having this couple over, because they are our Proverbs 27:17 friends “As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.” They encourage us to dig into the scriptures. It’s good stuff. We are also very blessed to have another couple that has been going through life with us, they will always be a special couple, because they were our very first couple to come to our home Bible study. James and I said from the beginning ” If it’s just him and I at this study, then we will be faithful with that.” God, saw it fit to bring us a very sweet couple who have become our friends and laborers in Christ.
We have been very blessed by passages throughout John and are looking forward to growing more in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the One and only true God. We pray that the Lord continues to grow us in the grace and knowledge of Him, to be sent out and send others out to proclaim His salvation and truth.

As she sat there in the bitter cold, she felt nothing, not the wind, not the sun, nothing that was evident. All she felt was abandoned. She held onto it as if it were the only thing that defined her at that moment. She didn’t know anything else except that she had been left alone in the world. Everything else, everything was shallow and empty. As she sat there she thought “who could love me? love me for the little that is left of me?” As she cried and wept in the bitter cold a memory came back to her. One that she had a long time ago. Someone once told her of a love that would never die, never leave her and would take her for little that was left of her. Still hesitant she held back and held her mangled, broken heart as tight as she could, what little was left of it. As she conversed within her heart to this Godman who lived within the mangled, broken heart. “How can you live within me, me who is so dirty, broken and lost.” She slowly began to feel it beat. Something she had not felt for a long time. She craved life, new life. This heartbeat was the beginning of her new life. She was reminded that this Godman had died for her. Was she willing to live for Him? Him who would never leave her nor forsake her,who would love her for the little that was left of her.
Because, He would NEVER leave her abandoned.
for a friend. I am praying. I love you.
Yesterday was a hard day. My faithfulness and trust in the Lord was put to the test, a very personal and emotional test. I must say that I failed. For a brief moment I questioned God’s will for our life. Today is a new day, a day that I will take on with trust in His providence. I have learned things from yesterday, that I will take with me today. As I was washing the dishes, (this is the place where the Lord seems to speak to me). Because like the dirty dish I was washing, I too come to Him as a dirty child who needs to be cleaned off. He reminded me of Jesus’ faithfulness. His faithfulness to the Father lead to His death. He was faithful unto death. I say I am a faithful follower. But, in my faithfulness to the Lord am I willing to go to death? Jesus’s death lead to our life. We too are to live the life of Christ, so that we can share that life with those that are dying. His life is the greatest testimony. I long to follow it, to breathe it, be it and adore it.
Lord, I am sorry for taking Your death for granted yesterday. You did not die on vain, nor with the intent of leaving me empty or broken. I look unto You, the Author and finisher of my faith.
“This is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.”
1 John 4:10
