So i love poetry. I think its such an amazing way to express my inner most feelings and what not. Last night i couldn't sleep.*i cant sleep with no covers* so i listened to music and i feel like God blessed me with a poem and i would LOVE to share it with you...this is called
A Letter To My Beloved
Dear My Beloved oh how i love thee
Sent my only son the only way to show thee
The love I have to give
the life i want you to live
Cant you see how much you mean to me
I don't need you, but i want you, I chose you to be
The light of the world, the one I want to use
My beautiful creation, you don't see the value
Your believing the lies the stories they tell
Destroying every part of you til your an empty shell
They didn't take the time to make you, create you
fill you with purpose, talent, and virtue
so who you gonna believe?
Clueless beings who are lost and all they know is deceit?
Or your God the creator of the greatest masterpiece?
Remember your his greatest masterpiece, fearfully and wonderfully made
I wish you could see what I see Our vision isn't the same
My visions 20/20 I see the now tomorrow and future
All the proof you need is laid out in the holy scripture
I love you my child draw near to me
The price has been paid don't feel guilty
My yoke is easy and my burden is light
Give me your sin in exchange for life
Forget where you been lets focus on where your going
My love never runs out its always flowing
So to my beloved oh how i love thee
Sent my only son the only way to show thee
How deep my love runs, deeper than any sea
written by Me....
SO remember you are Loved, Adored, Valued, by the most high. and his love is endless for you, he loves you sooo much. and it hurts God when he watches you disrespect yourself and it also breaks his heart when you don't love yourself. you begin to love yourself and others BETTER when you realize the LOVE that God has for you. Boast in the love that he has for you.
Remember you are beautiful and you are Passionately loved by God.

Nailed to The Cross
Colossians 2:13-15 13. When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful nature, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, 14. having canceled the written code, with its regulations, that was against us and that stood opposed to us; he took it away, nailing it to the cross. 15. And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.
Since the days of Adam and Eve we are all born sinners. The moment that Eve and Adam took a bite of the forbidden fruit we were cursed. Every generation was cursed with a sinful nature since birth. So from birth we are in-pure sinful beings, and without the Blood of Jesus Christ we wouldn't have a chance to get eternal life. We were sentenced to DEATH and we deserved God's wrath. But because of the love that God had for us he sent his only son to die for our sins *John 3:16-17*. Even while we were in our sin he looked down on us with love and still wanted to die for us..(that's BIG). When Jesus was crucified on the cross that act of love dismissed all the condemnation, death, judgement and everything that is against us! Everything that we deserved was nailed to the cross with him so that we can spend eternity with God in heaven. Christ overcame the world and knowing that, you should be able to overcome ANY circumstance with Christ. He has given us the Power to overcome...
Ephesians 4:22-24. 22. You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; 23. to be made new in the attitude of your minds; 24. and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.
Whenever we become Born Again we are made new in Christ and all the old things have past away. We should no longer live in the old attitudes, old habits, old way of speaking and or thinking. It's like everything about you changes and you become and new better person in Christ. If our old way of life is OK with God then Jesus dieing for us was a waste of time and energy. Our sinful nature was the reason why he died for us, he loved us so much and he wanted us to be with him and the only way was through his death.*Jesus is alive and well by the way =)* If we choose Christ were choosing to live for him and only him. You can't be saved and also live like the rest of the world it just doesn't make sense it just doesn't work. All of our sinful desires and everything we used to live for should have been crucified with Christ when we start to follow him. Its confusing when you meet a christian man/woman but they act like the world. Its a huge Pet Peeve of mine when i see on TV or in person people who claim Christ and say that they are saved or born again but they act like idiots..lol..its SO annoying because it says to the rest of the world "YOU CAN BE A CHRISTIAN BUT STILL DO WHAT U WANT ACT HOW U WANT AS LONG AS YOU GO TO CHURCH AND READ A BIBLE NOW AND THEN" and that's FAAAAAAARRR from what a follower of Christ really is. Don't pay attention to them please. We should strive for holiness...be determined to stay on the straight and narrow. So its time to get rid of the old person and put on the new one.
2 Corinthians 5:17. 17. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ , he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!
Now that you have been made new everything in your past means nothing to God. What you do with the new life you have in Christ is what he's more concerned with. Believe that you are forgiven for every sin you've ever made, believe that God loves you enough to take you from that and bring you to a better place. God has awesome plans for each and every one of us, its up to you to believe what he says about you then what other people say about you. God thinks only good thoughts of us and wants us to be great men and women of God. The past is the past don't bring the past into your future! you'll never move forward! relax you are made new you're forgiven now go live an abundant life in Christ!! =)

The Love of Christ
A few days ago the world received devastating news about Haiti and the earthquake that completely wiped out the city of Port-au-Prince and did damage to other surrounding cities. Right now Haiti needs our help. I'm not Haitian you may not be either but it doesn't matter. We are all God's creation, so with that being said we need to show compassion to this country. You don't need to be a millionaire or own an organization to help out. There are many ways. Haiti could seriously use your prayers, money, supplies, clothes, food, water whatever that they need at this time. Its time to show Haiti the love of Christ that is in us. If you have no desire whats so ever to lend a helping hand in any way possible YOU DO NOT HAVE THE LOVE OF CHRIST IN YOU. I'm just saying. God does things that we cant understand and some things *I've learned* are not meant for us to fully understand. God can do whatever he wants. He can restore that country over night, bring them out of poverty and make them the richest country in the world, God has that ability and power. A lot of folks are upset with God or asking all the "WHY" questions that they can think of...but in his word it says that God knows what he is doing he is in TOTAL control of EVERYTHING. He is an ALL KNOWING GOD! he knew this would happened he planned it. So what we need to do is come together for Haiti and show them that we care. Show them that their is still some compassion left in this world. What we need to do as children of God is to show them the love of our redeemer and Savior Jesus Christ. Show them that Jesus Christ LOVES them through you.

There's a Gift Inside of you
We were all born with a talent or a gift to do something special in this world. God created us all with a purpose to fulfill. its up to us to find out what it is and then by faith pursue it.
Matt 25:14-29
(if u don't know)This Parable talks about how a man gives his servants talents to go and multiply to bring back to him. He gives each servant(3)a different number of talents. If you read the parable you can get the FULL story on how everything went down.
The parable helped me too see my talent differently. I love to sing its been a dream of mine since i was a small child and its something that I feel in the depths my heart. But I always felt like what i had to give wasn't good enough, and I'm sure we all feel that way about a lot of things in our lives. I want to say i felt like the servant who received the 1 talent. All around me were talented people who i felt were better than me and i ignored the fact that I was God made and my talent was just as good as theirs was...WHY?? Because it came from a perfect God. Anything that is good comes from God and I didn't know that back then. If you read the parable the servant with the 1 talent dug a hole and buried his talent in the ground and hid it. When we decide to "dig a hole" and hide our talent we don't get better and grow. All God wants is the best for us, he wants to expand our territory and give us MORE by trusting him.
When we proceed to hide behind our invisible walls of fear nothing gets done. Were not living to our fullest potential. Understand that the gift and talents that are inside of you are worthy. Don't allow people, haters, fears or anything else stop you from living out your purpose. Don't be like that servant who decided to hide his talent instead of multiply. When you make that decision to step out in faith and use your talents...God sees that and says "If they can take what I've given them and do all of this then they can handle the many other things that i have in store" he wants that for your life. God is SO good that he doesn't want to see you in the same place forever, he delights in giving you more and moving you towards and towards your God given purpose. strengthen your talents whatever they are and start living your life the way God intended it to be. He'll never leave you or forsake you, he'll never give you more than you can handle he knows exactly who you are and what you can do. God has faith in you...so have faith in him. Trust him with your dreams...he will give you more than you've ever imagined.

Beautiful Heart
I decided to start this blog for many reasons...one is I created this account since high school and never really attempted to create my own blog. so i figured why not try this out for a few months and see where it takes me. another is I want to allow God to use me through all of my networking pages like: twitter, face book, myspace and now BLOG SPOT!
Hopefully i will be able to add posts every week depending on my mood and memory. I pray that anything I share on here will bless your heart and encourage you in Christ. and even if NOBODY reads these i will continue to post and maybe just maybe (bcuz God is Able) SOMEBODY will be open to what i have to say.
I may not be important to you and maybe what i have to say doesn't matter But everyone has a voice...I'm just using every opportunity to use mine... =)
