I was doing so well at keeping a regular quiet time with God and blogging for the past two weeks, but now I’m slacking off and retreating to my old habits. Lots of stuff has been happening lately and it’s just messing me up and now that I’m sick it’s making me even worse… I will hopefully post later today for the people that look forward to my REAL posts. My boyfriend’s sister’s getting married today, so it’ll prolly be around 8 PM (CST).

While you’re waiting for my post, go check out my Blog Roll, a lot of those blogs are TOTALLY awesome. Personal faves are The Blazing Center, Forthright Fixation, Postcards From The Edge, Lynn’s Life, and Agent Tim Online. And if you’re parents of teenagers, check out The Rebelution, I’m not going to explain it, you have to go find out for yourself. :P Toodles!

(PS) I saw Prince Caspian tonight!!! It was incredible!

…not enough time to do it! I’m so sorry I didn’t post yesterday! I keep doing that lately and it’s bothering me a lot. I love blogging and I wish I could do it more efficiently, but sometimes I just have so many things going on. I have 2 and a half weeks left of high school and they’re starting to get hectic! This isn’t a real post today, just a filler to let you guys know what’s going on and a future explanation of why I may not post sometimes. So sorry. I love you all dearly though, thanks for reading this! :] Toodles!

I know it’s late and technically Tuesday (CST) now, so I’ll make this my post for yesterday and today. I have an application on Facebook called Xtreme Bible Study and there’s a new Bible Study posted everyday. The one posted today really spoke to me and I just felt I needed to post it. Some quick background info though…

So, if you’ve actually read all my posts or know me in real life, you’ll know that a month ago I went on a Ladies’ Silent Retreat with the women from my church. Well, the verse that is the theme of today’s Bible Study was also in the blue notebook they gave us. It was so weird because the version in the notebook was from the Message adn so was the verse from today’s Bible Study! It was just really neat to see something that God placed in front of me so that I could remember and stay accountable to what I experienced last month.

” “Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me–watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”  Matthew 11:28-30 (MSG)

Perhaps you are like me and have begun to hate religion. Maybe that feeling has made you feel weird in the past but good news, God is burned out on religion as well. God wants to have a REAL relationship with you. It doesn’t matter what church you go to or if you speak by using the King James language. Example: O how I hope thou will enjoyest the Bible Study I have written for thee. Ok, nothing spiritual about that. God wants you to be real with him and to enjoy a relationship that is deep! God says if you’ll just spend time with me you’ll recover your life. How cool is that? God will give you rest, grace, nothing will be too heavy for you. The last part of the verse says, if you’ll hang with him, he’ll teach you how to live freely and lightly. This has to be one of my favorite verses in the Bible. Print this verse out and place it in your text book or on your computer so you can be reminded of what God really wants to give you. Dump religion and begin a relationship that will enable you to enjoy the rest of your life!”

Reading this little Bible Study along with that verse, made me remember what one of the ladies shared. She focused on the part of the verse that talked about the “unforced rhythms of grace”. She used that as an analogy to describe how we all live to a forced rhythm or schedule. And something she realized while we were out in the middle of nowhere at a beautiful encampment was that God shows us his unforced rhythms of grace through nature.

She talked about the way the river’s flow would sometimes be rushed, but other times it would seem still. She talked about the wind’s cool breeze as well as the stillness of the air. As long as we take the time to see what God puts right in front of us, we can “live freely and lightly” as he wants us to.

Now, onto why I didn’t get to post yesterday… At 12:30 AM yesterday I started to feel quite nauseous and didn’t get to bed until about 3 AM because I would have these panic spurts. I would be on the brink of sleep and then my heart would start to race, my breathing would get out of conrtol, my body would start shivering even though I felt warm, and my stomach felt like it was gonna hurl itself out of my body via my mouth… It was just awful! I took some knock off brand Pepto Bismol at like 1 AM, but it didn’t last very long.

I laid in bed praying the whole time that God would place a hedge of protection around my body and would get rid of whatever was attacking me. I prayed that he would calm my body down and relieve my mind of it’s worries and fears. I prayed that he would just put me to sleep so that I didn’t have to feel the anxiety or the nerves. I prayed this over and over again and always when I thought I was feeling better, a panic spurt would hit me.

So, when I woke up to get ready for school I did everything really slow so as to not upset my stomach again. I was feeling better, but I was still kinda queasy. I made it through all 5 of my classes and when I got home, I read some of my new book and decided to take a nap. That nap did me a whole lot of good!

I think my body was finally reacting to my abnormal eating and sleeping habits lately and just started to rebel on me. This happened back in January, but I threw up 7 times in one day, so just pray that nothing like this happens again, or at least until school is out because I can’t miss anymore days if I want to exempt my Economics final. =/

Ugh, sorry if that just felt like one big whine fest… Anyone got some cheese?? Ah well, I’ll post more on Wednesday! Toodles!

-Bee-

Sorry I didn’t post anything yeterday. I went to a benefit concert to help raise money for a friend’s mission trip to Guatemala this summer and I didn’t get home until 11 PM CST. And when I got home and attempted to post, WordPress was under maitenence… LAME! :P I’m just gonna post something short considering I posted that RIDICULOUSLY long thing about Urban Experience the other day. :P So, think on this…

“Paul wrote: ‘Dear brothers, pattern your lives after mine and notice who else lives up to my example.’” Philippians 3:17 (TLB)

Like the verse instructs us to do, we must pattern our lives after the spiritually strong and see who else notices the change and, in turn, takes up your way of life, too. Plain and simple: Be the physical Jesus to those that need to see Him. Toodles!

-Bee-

So, I’m going to a Switchfoot concert in an hour! :D How exciting?? I can’t wait, I get to hang out with my best friend in the ENTIRE world and I get to see a totally awesome band! Many Americans have prolly heard this quote somewhere, but still, think on this…

“Sir, my concern is not whether God is on our side; my greatest concern is to be on God’s side, for God is always right.” - Abe Lincoln

Short, sweet, and to the point. No explanation needed, no personal thoughts wanted. It is, what it is. Have a wonderful weekend everyone. Toodles!

(PS) It’s my mom’s birthday today! :D

So, we had a group of people from my church take a misson trip to Honduras a few weeks ago. Last night the two students from the Youth Group that participated shared their experience and it made me realize a few things.

This sign hangs above the doors in the Youth Cove (Youth Room) at my church. Every Wednesday night we walk past it and don’t even give it a second thought. A few weeks ago, as I’ve mentioned before, I participatd in a Ladies’ Silent Retreat with the women from my church and there was a sign saying the same thing as you left the campgrounds.

All throughout my life I’ve always heard of missionaries being people that went to different countries like Africa, Honduras, Mexico, etc. I didn’t fully understand how we could be entering the mission field if the most incredible missions took place in all of these foreign countries.

And then last summer I got to go to a camp called Urban Experience. It’s a Monday - Friday camp and it is seriously life changing. It’s not even about you changing other people, it’s about the people you interact with during that week changing you! It was so eye-opening and awe-inspiring that I could tell God was working in these peoples’ lives.

What’s the big deal about this Urban Experience?? I didn’t even have to leave my city! We drove about 30 minutes into downtown Dallas to a church we’re affiliated with and we stayed there the whole week. The whole camp is about learning what it’s really like to live in the “inner cities” of America.

[[If you're from the REYG and don't want your time at Urban Experience spoiled, don't read until you see more purple font!]]

On Monday we got to the church and introduced ourselves to the coordinator and played some “get to know you” games, which was really fun. Then we went over to the North Texas Food Bank and got to pack boxes of food for ministries that helped out needy families. After we got back from doing this, we had a little talk about respect and the way we should respect people, whether they’re homeless or supremely rich.

Next was the hard part… We had to go to lunch, 2 group members and a chaperone. We had to figure out the bus route to get to the restaurant we were supposed to eat at and we were given a specific amount of money to use and we couldn’t use our own money we brought with us to pay any extra. It was a neat experience having to actually budget for what we were going to eat. We went to this quaint little Mexican restaurant that was really good! It was great until we got out to see our bus driving away from the bus stop. We walked to the bus stop and saw that it was going to take another 45 minutes for another bus to come. So we hiked the 8 blocks or so back to the church and had a fun time bonding with the people in my group.

Later that night we planned out a faux menu of what we would buy from the supermarket if we had to live off a dollar a meal. After our groups did that, we figured out the route to the supermarket (the only one in South Dallas) and had to find all the food we decided to buy. We didn’t actually buy the food, but it was so weird thinking about having to live off a dollar a meal everyday! I’m so used to being able to stop by Wendy’s and get a quick burger whenever I want to, so I never thought about that stuff before.

Then when we got done buying our actual dinner that we were going to be eating, the coordinator made us carry it back with us on the bus (during which time I fell asleep). Then, we participated in a Bible Study that’s held at the church on Monday nights.

Tuesday was the BIIIIIIG day, the one that has prolly changed my life the most. We did this thing called “A Day in the Life” and it’s basically where you live a scenario of an inner city resident.

First off, we got into different groups of 3 and had to draw slips of paper from a hat. On the slips of paper were things like, car, $2.50 (for a bus pass), bus pass, laptop/cd player/ipod, cell phone, etc. Whichever one of the slips we drew, we were allowed to have that thing, BUUUUUT if we drew car, we couldn’t use it because we had no money for the gas; if we picked laptop/cd player/ipod, we couldn’t use the laptop because of the lack of WiFi Connection, etc. Unfortunately, my group chose two cars and the laptop/cd player/ipod, so it really did us no good. The coordinator took away everything that we didn’t choose, even our money. (The adults in the groups were allowed to have a cell phone for emergencies, but they couldn’t use them to assist in our scenario unless someone drew cell phone.)

We had 7 different scenarios to choose from and my group picked the one we thought would be easiest. (It wasn’t…) We picked the scenario of a family that had run out of food and had no more food stamps and no money left until the mother got paid at the end of the week. This happened the month before, as well. We needed to figure out where to get the food, how to get it home, what the regulations and stipulations were to get the food, etc.

Since we couldn’t use our cars, we had to walk everywhere that day. At 10:48 AM, we approached a cop sitting in his car to ask him where the closest food pantry would be and he told me that he had one in his kitchen… Yeah, like we were gonna go and raid his kitchen, I dunno how well that would turn out. He also gave us talking to him weird looks because of the way we were dressed. Here’s what I wrote in my folder about it.

“The cops don’t know what a food pantry is. How is that helpful to people that actually need it?? He didn’t take us seriously because we weren’t dressed like we were actually in that situation.”

At 11:45 we decided to find a church in downtown that could direct us to their food pantry. As we were walking to this church there was a car wreck and we stopped to help the people out, but there wasn’t much we could do. Another lady had already called the cops by the time we ran over to the scene, so it was basically taken care of. The drivers were pretty shaken up and had some cuts, but other than that, things looked okay so we went on our way.

While we were walking to the church I thought of an idea for a “Man vs. Wild” episode about surviving in the inner city.

So, at 11:50 we went inside the church and asked if they had a food pantry. The lady at the desk directed us to where it was located a few miles away.

At 12:18 PM we got to the place and wrote down all their rules and such, like we were supposed to figure out. But for some reason our group didn’t feel like we had accomplished what we were supposed to, so we kept went downstairs to where their soup kitchen was and decided to ask where another food pantry was located. We walked in the exit door because the entrance had been locked behind us. So, we asked one of workers where the closest one was and he directed us to someone else. As we started to walk to the other person we saw a black lady come in behind us through the exit door and the workers started yelling at her to leave. The next person we talked to, before we could even open our mouths to say anything, asked us if we were lost. We said no and what we were there for and he directed us to one of the cops in the soup kitchen. (We could tell where this was going.) So, after being relayed through 3 more people we finally talked to the person in charge of the soup kitchen who told us we should go to the food pantry at the church we were staying at. Oh bother, this was getting more and more difficult as the day went on. After we left the soup kitchen feeling a tad defeated and totally confused by how helpless the cops were, I gave my water bottle to one of the homeless people sitting on the sidewalk. The guy next to him asked me if I was gonna make him pay for it. I smiled and said no and told him about how I just wasn’t thirsty and thought someone else could use it. After this we asked a traffic officer on a bicycle if he knew where another food pantry might be.

At 12:50 we reached the other place we were directed to besides the church we were staying at and they only had a soup kitchen. So, we asked for the number to a food pantry on their list and to use the telephone.

At 1:00 we had to sign a list and wait in line to use the phone. Then a worker asked why we were there because of the way we looked. (I forgot to mention this before, but we weren’t allowed to tell people what we were actually doing.) We made up some bogus story about our house burning down and we were living with our aunt, but she didn’t have enough money to buy food for us, so we were looking for the closest food pantry. I felt really bad about lying to him like that because he was a really nice guy and seemed genuinely concerned about us. He actually told us that we shouldn’t be in that position. When we finally got our turn on the phone, I called the number of the food pantry so we could get directions. The lady that answered the phone didn’t drive, so she didn’t know how to help us get there. We asked the guy at the counter how to get there and it was really far away.

At 1:30 we we took a break at a little park thing because we were tierd, hot, and in a lot of pain. (And we were remembering that people go through this every single day!) This is what I wrote about it.

“Takin’ a break because I’m in pain. (HEAD and FEET ache and water is wonderful.)”

At 1:35 a man came up to us and offered us an orange Gatorade.

“I was supposed to meet my friend, but he never showed up. This must be a sign from God that I’m supposed to give y’all this Gatorade!”
“But don’t you want it??”
“Nah, I got my beer right here, y’all can have the Gatorade.”

It was so interesting to see someone that was clearly living in poverty offering us a Gatorade. I suddenly felt like I was a part of something much bigger than myself, my church, and my group of friends. It made me realize how closed my eyes had been. I had never really looked at a homeless person before this day, but now, if I ever see someone walking along the side of the road (whether they look homeless or not), I feel compassion for them.

“I had an A-Ha moment! Salvage anything you receive along the way.”

After this we headed back to the church we were staying at for the week. In all, we walked 6 miles that day. We attended another Bible Study at the church that night.

On Wednesday we had service projects and we switched groups once again. My group went to the AIDS Resource Center and we helped out at their food pantry and served lunch to the patients at the Center. It was really incredible to see people that were so obviously suffering from this disease so happy and so alive. It really made me appreciate life more than I did before. We had some questions to answer and I’ll write down everything from my journal.

Before we got there:

1. Considering what you know about this place, product, or service, what do you expect to find??
   – I don’t know much at all about the place we’re going to, but I expect to find a place where we can do our best to help people through God’s will.
2. How do you expect the place to be organized??
   – I expect that the Resource Center will be organized in a well put-together system.
3. What type of clients/customers would you expect?? Would one age group or gender predominate?? Would you expect a certain income or educational level to dominate??
   – I don’t really know, I think the clients, age groups, genders, etc. will be all over the board.

Before we left:

1. Who’s in charge?? How is power gained or lost as people interact??
   – Dean and Debra. It seems like the power in the organization is shared, even with the volunteers.
2. Who controls conversations?? What are the topics of conversations??
   – There’s not really any leader in conversations, it’s pretty much an open input sort of thing. We talked about where we were from, school, what we liked to do, what all we’re doing this week, and computers.
3. What are the key elements in the scene??
   –  HIV, food, volunteer work, it’s not about what we want, it’s about what THEY want, and treating people with dignity. They’re (the people we encountered today) all sort of their own support group for each other.
4. What are the relationship of the people??
   – They’re all friends, the workers and the “clients” aren’t afraid to interact with each other.
5. What language or actions seem culture and scene specific??
   – When you leave, you hug and kiss each other on the cheek; everybody made sure everybody else was doing okay.
6. What ethical concerns arise from the assignment??
   –The way most of the people were homosexual and/or transexual. HIV is obviously something that the media wants us to believe is only caused by having sex, doing drugs, etc. and that’s not necessarily the case.

– I had an A-Ha moment! Similar people want to live in similar locations. It’s so hard to achieve solidarity when this happens. This is why, we as Christians, should not hide behind our fellow Christians, we must set ourselves apart so that others may achieve solidarity through Christ.

Then we went back to the church we were staying at to unwind and share our experiences.

On Thursday we had another service project. We switched up our groups again and were read the children’s book “Something Beautiful”. We were instructed to ask people we would encounter during the day what they thought was beautiful. The group I was in went to a summer day camp program at Youth World in Oak Cliff. (Can I just add that Oak Cliff is SO pretty to me??)

We had such a great time hanging out with the kids and the other teenagers that were there. I was kinda judgmental going into this project because we were told that the teenagers were working off their hours of community service there. (And we were the minority, which isn’t something I’m used to because there are mostly white people at my church.) Man, I was so wrong in thinking that, a lot of the people turned out to be SO cool! And the kids were so astonished to see a digital camera. They kept asking me to take their pictures and stuff, it was totally adorable.

I remembered that we were told to ask people what they thought was beautiful so I asked a few of the kids and recorded them on the voice recorders we had. One girl said butterflies and she had the most adorable Texan accent, too. That day, those kids were beautiful to me.

The biggest issue we had that day was getting back to downtown Dallas… We sat on the wrong bus for nearly 2 hours until we got off to catch the bus we thought was coming next. I had to pee SO bad and in Dallas there’s no such thing as a public restroom. You have to be a customer and we didn’t have any money!!! So, we sat and waited for the next bus to come in the extreme heat… Guess what?? IT WAS THE SAME BUS WE GOT OFF OF BEFORE!!!!! Ugh, I was so angry because the bus driver told us that she knew there was another one coming. Of course she didn’t know it was her’s though.

We sat on that bus for another 2 and a half hours. When we finally got back to the church, my group was exhausted and the other groups had already talked about their days. So, we just chilled and took naps until it was time to go to the Bible Study. The Bible Study we went to on Thursday night is formally called “Warriors For Christ” (informally “Smokey John’s”), which is a Bible Study focused on prison ministry and helping recovering addicts and recent prison releasees (is that a word??). Here’s what I wrote down about about the prison system, you may not know some of this.

• $2 billion a year is spent on maintaining prisons.
• Inmates get 5 minutes on the phone every 90 days.
• Most women get their babies taken away from them while in prison.
• No education allowed while in prison and they can’t vote after they’re released.
• 6 weeks before people are released from prison they can get their IDs.
• 86% of people in jail are not criminals, they are there for doing drugs.

From the lesson:

• Romans 5 - You are justified by faith.
• God is working in your life, even when you don’t want it or need it.
• Everybody needs a Judas in their life. (So God can glorify you.)
• The fruits of the spirit come only through trials and tribulations.
• It’s not a 12 step program, it’s a 1 step program… 1 step toward Jesus.
• All the Hell you’re going through, remember to keep hope and you will NOT be ashamed.

And to this day, I still go every Thursday that I can, as you’ll see that from my post a few weeks ago. It’s so incredible because every week there’s someone new and every week the new people are always welcomed without a second thought. Nobody cares about denomination there, nobody cares about where you’ve been or where you’re going, all they care about is helping you grow closer to God.

And on Friday, we packed up and went home. :[

[[Spoilers are over, REYG peeps.]]

So, last night while the two people were sharing about their experience in Honduras, I remembered everything I learned and faced during Urban Experience last summer. And I finally understood that you don’t have to enter a new country to enter the mission field. Sometimes, the most important mission fields are the ones we are at all the time. So, on your campuses, in your homes, in your workplaces, everywhere you go, that is holy ground the Lord has walked on. I will leave you with this verse, it reflects everything I experienced last summer.

“Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some have entertained angels without know it.” Hebrews 13:2 (NIV)

May the Lord be with you as you enter your personal mission field. Sorry it’s so long, but I couldn’t leave anything out! :P Toodles!

Okay, so there’s a lot of crazy stuff going on with my family right now. We really need some prayers!

So, my grandma (mom’s side) was put in the hospital yesterday because she has been confused lately. Like, she’ll go into a room and then just stand there, then my grandad would ask her what she was doing and she’d say she didn’t know, so he’d ask why she went into the room and again she’d say she didn’t know. Whenever my granddad suggested telling my mom about it, she would get really upset with him and object to telling my mom.

Well, now she’s in the hospital and had to get an MRI done. She has ephysema and asthma which have caused her lungs to deterierate to the point that it’s irrepairable. So, they’re going to put her on an oxygen tank and see how that does. The reason she has been so confused lately was because of the lack of oxygen to her brain. Everything is fine in her brain though, just the lack of oxygen. She shouldn’t be out of the hospital for a few more days, but if she gets out by the weekend, my mom’s going to go and stay with her parents for a bit to help the adjust to my grandma living with the oxygen tank. But we’re still nervous about what else could be happening because she also has glaucoma which is gradually getting worse, I believe. Just keep her in your prayers because we lost my aunt (mom’s sister) in November of 2006 and it’s been a tough recovery from that.

Also, on that note, my uncle (the aunt’s husband) called earlier to tell my mom that the house (and everything left of my aunt, including their 3 dogs) was burnt to the ground. My uncle also lost his truck. Thankfully nobody was home, but sadly that’s why everything perished in the fire. All they have left of my aunt in her wedding ring and another ring that she gave my cousin before she passed away. Just pray that they can recover from that because I dunno what I’d do if a fire happened at my house and so I can’t imagine everything that was left of my significant other burn like that. It’s such a sad, scary thought.

And I have one more! My mom’s having surgery on May 19. I would explain why, but it’s prolly not something she wants me sharing with the entire internet… Just pray that it goes well and she makes a speedy recovery. :]

Thank you so much for doing this, our family erally needs it right now. And since I’m going off to college in a little over 3 months, it’s gonna be really tough on everyone because I’m the last kid outta the house and my mom says I’m the comic relief of the family. (See the post from April 27, 2008) Well, I love you all. Toodles!

Ahh, what a lovely (yet hard) virtue. So, my church does this thing once a month called Revolve and it’s our way of showing the families with kids in our congregation how to enforce the virtues that are expressed in the Bible today.

Last week was the most recent Revolve and it was about patience. The skit this time around had to do with a game of Jenga and learning how to be patient enough to win the game and keep the tower from falling over. Another skit had to do with slowing down when you’re reading your Bible and taking the time to understand what the people did and why.

After each of the Revolves, Kaley, Daniel, and I hand out the “thing” that is supposed to help the kids remember the virtue. Well, the “thing” was candy (AKA the Bit-Of-Patience Bar) and the kids had to wait a week before eating the candy. I picked out a packet of Starbursts (Mmmmm)! Now, if you know me at all, from YouTube, from MySpace, from real life, whatever, you know that I am EXTREMELY impatient.

I am proud to say that I have not eaten my Starbursts yet. It was extremely hard, but I’m really glad that I actually did it. :]

Okay, so I know this post was pointless, but I have a dance recital at 5 and I can’t think of anything to write about, so I decided I’d let you guys know a little bit more about me! Toodles!

-Bee-

Oh, and I’d like to show you the beautiful state I live in; Texas!!! :] (This is just in my front yard.)

This next one is one of my all time fave pics!

Location: Tyler State Park

I’m not talking about the book in the Bible, I had a revelation today while I was talking to my boyfriend and I decided to share it with you.

So lately I’ve been a bit moody and just feeling neglected and I don’t exactly know why. Daniel has been hanging out with Kaley and a friend that we don’t really see very much a lot lately because Kaley’s been bringing her to church and I guess it was starting to get under my skin. (I overreacted though, so don’t worry about our relationship!)

So, I was telling him about how I felt neglected and how I felt it was odd that he was hanging out with this girl so much if she had just recently started coming to church wih Kaley again. I think the girl is a sweetheart and totally gorgeous, but for some reason there was that thought in the back of my head about it…

So, while we were hugging and he was saying sorry, even though I overreacted, I thought about the way God’s relationship is with us. He’s prolly going to be a lot more apparent in a new Christian’s life than in the life of someone who grew up knowing who God was. Kinda like the way Daniel will wanna hang out with someone he hasn’t seen in a while and we’ve been seeing each other for the better part of our nearly 2 year, 9 month relationship.

As I thought about hanging out with Daniel more and just casting my fears aside, it sparked the idea that maybe I should make God more apparent in my everyday life because even if I don’t feel Him or see Him as much as I’d like to, He’s still there, whether I like to believe it or not. What a revelation, huh??

I hope you’re having a lovely Tuesday (or Wednesday, depending on where you live). Toodles!

I think I’m gonna start doing these little “think” bits because they’re short, but have a good message. And since I am really tired and need a nap soon, I thought it was a good idea. Think on this…

“I will praise you, Lord, among the nations;
I will sing of you among the peoples.
For great is your love, reaching to the heavens;
your faithfulness fills the skies.”  Psalm 57:9-10 (TNIV)

I just opened my Bible and pointed to a verse. This is what I came to. For once it actually worked! I never open to something useful… Srsly! One time I opened to 1 Chronicles where it’s naming off the descendants… Hmm, ah well, on to the important stuff. :P

I really like this verse because it talks about how awesomely powerful and loving the Lord really is! :] It’s also a very encouraging verse to read because it gives me the confidence to share my faith with others. Toodles!

-Bee-
