I hate sin.. I absolutely find it abolishing. Its aweful.. It hurts so many people. I’m so freaking sick of this whole world. I hate sin. I hate absolutely HATE satan and everything of him. Why do I have to live here one for stupid day? Why must I have to behold such death and distruction? This world has lost its way.. Even those who are marked in the Lord’s book of life are falling on the way side. Crawling and falling.. getting up just to fall on their butts a few steps back again.. I’m tired of it. God, will you not save us? Will you not keep us from these sould murduring lies? Why are we so stupid? Why must we be as dumb as sheep? Sometimes I wonder why you gave us the dignity of comparing us to sheep. I think maybe we are dumber than they. I wonder how I can survive a day without You. I cannot. You’re commandments are so true and right.. Why do we deny them? Why do we forget them? It is not for legalism that You gave us guidlines. Those boundaries are to keep us from falling to our own death.. Then how come we play on the top of the boundaries? Satan, what a deception you’ve laid across our eyes.. the blindes you’ve sold to us.
Lord, teach me to stand on your Rock. Teach me how to see the truth more clearly each day. May I no longer be tripped by the stones and pebbles of temtation.. Or the deep traps of inticement and seduction. May I know and be wise to say no when needed. With authority may I declair my reasons to be not of this world, as I must live in it. God, be my first love this day, and forever. Please, be my Guide, my Husband, my Father, my Friend.. may you be at my right hand this day. May I not be moved. May I be a rebelious Christian who refuses to be caught up in the snares of the world. I love you Jesus. I love you so much, I will never let you go. I love you.

Helleau,
I like typing Hello like that. It just gives it a little more personality. I think hello can be overused. *LOL* Boy that was the statement of the month. *sarcastic* In as much as we try to find other ways to greet one another, the one most people fall on is hello. or hey.. or hi.. Just an observation.
Yesterday after I was working out, I was getting a Terriyaki Bowl from Jack in the Box.. I’m telling you, those are very very good. I love it. Its a perfect meal after you work out. Anyway, I was pondering a lot of things. Rainy days make me think a lot. It was pouring yesterday.. Seems like the harder the rain, the deeper the thought. Of course, as I type this its a sunny day, so its hard to grasp that particular thought I had...
Okay I think it was basically how everyone has been brought up differently. People see life in so many different ways. As much as I’m not fond of that song from uhhhh.. whats it called.. Oh yeah, Pocahantes (spelling). Well there is a verse that I really thought about at work and it says, “If you walk in the footsteps of a stranger, you learn things you never knew, you never knew.” I think thats cool.. Its really true too. There are so many people out in this world. Their lives don’t just start existing when you see them, and then stop existing when you don’t. That middle aged woman checking out those sale priced shoes next to you at the mall didn’t just appear a moment ago, she’s lived a life with experiences that you probably would understand, and many you may not even know. Same with that 70 year old grandpa who is sitting on the bench out in the hall area, waiting for his wife to buy that lamp shade that was just perfect for the guest room.
I know there was more, but like I said, its a sunny day.. my mind is fluffy and light just like the atmosphere. Well bye bye for now.. *foop*
King Solomon had just about everything a person would want in life. He was king, for one thing, which meant his status in society was of one of the highest forms. Solomon was the son of David, which meant that his lineage was was of envy to many other people around him. He was highly respected from the start. He was raised in the palace home, ruled in the palace home, and died in the palace home. Throughout Solomon’s life, he had the opportunity to try just about everything and anything under the sun. He was a world renouned philosopher, scholar, and builder, just to name a few things. Not only that, but Solomon had thousands of wives. This meant he um, well made woopy a lot. haha.. So if you think about this, he had the world in the palm of his hand. He had everything a person would want or strive for in this world, even today. What I think is so uncanny is the book of Ecclesiastes. Read it. Its straight from the horse’s mouth. Or should we say Jack ass’s mouth. Because he lived it up. And when he did, his kingdom fell to an earth shattering crash. The only thing he had going for him was that God granted the guy wisdom. Which meant he had enough wisdom to realize that everything he had just wasn’t what he was really looking for. Its God. That’s always what we are striving for. So many times we are all lookin in the wrong place. We seem to think that all other things in life are what gives us pleasure and fulfillment, and in the end we wind up empty and dead. Metaphoracly and literally. I pray that we can see what Solomon had to learn the hard way.. that is, that we seek the Lord in the days of our youth, that we shall be fulfilled by Him before the days come in life when we say, "I find no pleasure in this." and in some point in time, you will say that. With or without God. If its not for Jesus, if your life is not for Him, its meaningless. Take ole Sol's wise words on it. :)

Today my eye's have been opened. Today, I've been given a new perspective. Sometimes we know things, but we don't realize until we are exposed to the problem ourselves. Today, I found an absolutely appauling picture, but I found it to be something that woke me up. I am going to provide a link to this picture, and if you are easily disturbed by graphic things, then don't click this picture because its not a pretty site. These are aborted babies in a trash can. These are precious human lives that were robbed of a chance to live life on this earth. They were deprived of a chance to be prepared for Heaven. This is a tragic thing. If you are a mommy to be and you are pondering whether you should have an abortion, please please please don't do it. They are not fetuses, they are real babies and they are precious gems to Jesus. Don't kill His gems. If you have never really thought about abortion in a deep context, think about it. And not only think about it, but please pray for our nation. God cares and He wants you to care to. Pray!!
That leads me to say, just pray for our nation. Pray for people who are in the dark. Pray for people who are blinded by Satan's lies. Those that are of the obvious and those that are so hard to determine whether it is right or not. Pray that God will come soon and right all the wrongs. Bless those who persecute you for His Name's sake.
Your prayers are the tiny nervs that moves God's giant hand. :) All you need is faith the size of a mustard seed and you shall move mountains. Lets move some serious mountains! God bless you!
