This I Know

1) Matthew 5:8 - "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God." This verse is on one of my great-great grandmother's grave. I am blessed to come from a family of Christians.  2) James 5:13- " Is anyone among you suffering? He should pray. Is anyone cheerful? He should sing." If you know me, you know I love to sing. There is nothing I'd rather be doing than to be at Indian Creek Youth Camp ball field with no lights on singing with other teenagers with like-faith. Polishing The Pulpit's teen singings may be one of the most beautiful things I will hear on this earth. 3) Romans 8:28- " And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to  His  purpose." I just love this verse. 4) Psalm 147:4-" He counts the number of the stars; He calls them all by name." Just imagine how much God cares for YOU. 5) The Entire Chapter Of Proverbs 31 ...

Any trial here on earth will be nothing once we get to our eternal reward. One of my favorite verses is Revelation 2:10 " Do not fear any of those things which you are about to suffer. Indeed, the devil is about to thro...

At the time I’m writing this, not much is going on in my life. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a busy person and I always have something to do. BUT these next few years will be a period of waiting. Waiting for the unknown, waiting for knowledge, waiting for that certain person to come along.. There’s so many things I could name, but I am very content.     One verse that stuck out to me in my Bible study the other day was Lamentations 3:25-27. “The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the person who seeks Him. It is good to wait quietly for deliverance from the Lord. It is good for a man to bear the yoke while he is still young.” Another good verse is Ecclesiastes 7:8 “The end of a matter is better than its beginning; a patient spirit is better than a proud spirit.” ‭‭ This was a short blog post, but I hope you got something out of it! :)
