Fresno, California

Hello you wonderful people! On Monday the 23rd I will be driving from Mesa Arizona to Fresno California. Why you ask? I'm going to visit my grandparents at their house in the country! It's absolutely the most beautiful place on this earth :) Well... maybe not, but it is lovely :) Their house sits right in the middle of their great big grape vineyard. I'm looking forward to hopefully getting much more time with Jesus than I have been getting lately. I'll be sure to upload pictures of my trip! :)

Hey look at this!!!



I just took this picture in my backyard and there is NO EDITING. AT ALL. Jesus is really nice to me to let me see a glimpse of his glory :)

A God centered life

   My life has taken a few interesting turns lately, and what with school starting up again soon, God is calling me to have my life more centered on him. 
   
   As I look at that phrase 'A God centered life' It makes me think, "My life shouldn't be centered on God, it should  Be God." Everything I do, say, think, EVERYTHING I do, will do, or have done should be done for only one purpose: To bring Glory to God and advance his kingdom.
   
   And when I think of the coming school year I think of all of those helpless people, many of them being my friends, who don't have God, and think that they can save themselves. And I think of how I could go out there every day and share the gospel to everyone that I see but instead, I'm sitting on my computer writing about how I need more of Jesus.


   For those of you (if there is anyone out there reading this) Who don't know what I'm talking about with all my Jesus posts and such, let me enlighten you with the words of God himself.


  
In the Bible, Romans 5:8 says: But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

   I'm pretty sure that we can all agree that we have all messed up A LOT in our lives. That's the wonderful part about God's dying for our sins. He loved us SO FREAKING MUCH. It is humanly impossible to grasp how amazing and loving he is. 


   Are you familiar with crucifixion? Well, long story short, you get your hands and feet nailed to a wooden cross and you slowly suffocate to death. Doesn't that just sounds like a good time? 

NO.
IT DOESN'T.

   Well that's what Jesus went through for you. He didn't have to die for you. He was, is, and will always be perfect in every way shape or form. He died for you because he loves you and wants to spend eternity with you in Heaven!

Think about that.
The creator of the Universe wants to be with you forever SO BADLY that he sent his ONLY SON to DIE FOR YOUR SINS.

    Ok this is just me, but if I created a race of people to glorify myself and they just turned on me and started making fools of themselves, I would be a little upset. Just kidding I would be A LOT upset.

   Which makes the fact that Jesus loves us as much as he does an even more wonderful concept :)

   Well that's it for now :) That's your little gospel tid-bit for today :) And please please PLEASE, if you have any questions comment and ask me :)

Rain = sadness?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but most of the people that I know LOVE the rain. Maybe I'm wrong, but all of those "AHHH IT'S RAINING!!!!" Statuses on facebook kind of gave me that idea. But here's a question for you. Why, if everyone loves rain so much, do so many songs and movies and such identify rain with  feeling sad? If you love rain, shouldn't rain make you happy? I've always been thrown off by this. I understand that rain kind of looks/reminds you of crying in a way, but still. If I'm sad and it's raining, it's only going to make me feel better :)

There's your random thought for today... :)

Mustaches :)

Ok, so I have this thing...
Not really an obsession, more of a fetish you could say :)
MUSTACHES!!!!
Or as they are more entertainingly known, mooostaches :)
They're so wonderful! Think about it... hair that you can grow on ONE SPECIFIC PART OF YOUR FACE. ONLY THAT PART. NO OTHER PART. I'm not really fond of them in person, but the concept is rather entertaining to me :)

POTW 7/7/12

Ya know... I don't know why I keep doing these. I always forget to do them....


This week's POTW - Drugstore Cowboy
Meaning - I find this one extremely entertaining :P A drugstore Cowboy is a man who hangs around on a street corner and tries to pick up girls. Because you know... that's really appealing. I have a thing for guys that hang around on street corners...



Not really :)




USE IT! I DARE YOU!
