You remember when it was actually worth getting up early on a Saturday to watch cartoons.

When everything was settled by:

When kickball was something you did everyday!! and you played on the monkey bars and knew at least one kid who broke their arm falling off of it...

You used to listen to the radio all day long just to record your FAVORITE song of ALL time on a tape.

You had slap bracelets!

You actually played outside until it was dark!
Way back-before we realized all this would eventually disappear...

God Saves Even When We Think We're UnSaveable

Saints aren't born saved, just like homosexuals aren't born gay. We all make choices. What is your choice?
P.S. said with love

Just a thought - Change

Whatever circumstances you are dealing with in life, be careful not to be stagnant in the pit of complaining. Rejoice in the freedom to make a change ~ The Young Sheeion

God doesn't make any mistakes

Poem by Russell Kelfer


You are who you are for a reason.

You're part of an intricate plan.

You're a precious and perfect unique design,

Called God's special woman or man.



You look like you look for a reason.

Our God made no mistake.

He knit you together within the womb,

You're just what He wanted to make.



The parents you had were the ones he chose,

And no matter how you may feel,

They were custom-designed with God's plan in mind,

And they bear the Master's seal.



No, that trauma you faced was not easy.

And God wept that it hurt you so;

But it was allowed to shape your heart

So that into his likeness you'd grow.



You are who you are for a reason,

You've been formed by the Master's rod.

You are who you are, beloved,

Because there is a God!

A Practical Nugget

The way to make a small task seem hard and stressful is by procrastinating.

God is all I need

Your all that I need
Each and everyday I pray that you will be right by my side
Guiding me through night to fight the good fight
Lord, when pressure is all around and burdens get me down
Your always there to pick me up
Set me on my feet and set my soul free
Oh Lord, Your all that I need.

I love you Lord!!

In Christ Alone

A Young Lion's Moment: Acceptance, Submission, and Trust

A moment in my life right now (6/15/11):

Sometimes the journey you want to travel is the journey that God is protecting you from.

The journey (or place) I wanted to be surrounded by and embrace was filled with things, people, and culture. My inner spiritual community is there, my favorite restaurant is there, a couple of "church homes" are there. BUT that place isn't where God wants me to be. What do I do? Do I force myself to make things happen so I can go where I want to go or do I accept, submit, and trust God to lead me where I need to be for His glory? The answer is obvious, but often times the flesh desires to fulfill itself.

Perhaps, because of my limited vision, I can't see the dangers of going where I want to go. Perhaps there are traps on that journey that may separate, hinder, and even stop me from living out the purpose of God. I must accept, submit and trust.

God is directing me on the right journey which will set me up for what He is calling me to do in life. It does get difficult sometimes, but I must be about His agenda rather than my own. I must accept, submit and trust.

~ A Young Lion's moment

This is a prayer that I often heard a preacher pray while growing up. It has now become my prayer:



"Lord use me up doing good and send me home when your done. In Jesus name, Amen"


I must accept, submit, and trust this:

For I know the plans I have for you," says the LORD. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11 - New Living Translation
