I was watching an episode of The Cleveland Show where Cleveland pretends to be homeless so that he can receive the good charity that homeless people get showered with during the holiday season. But then as soon as Christmas was over he discovered that no one cared about the homeless anymore. That and church got …

God Wakes Me Up
Someone somewhere, I can't remember where I read this, said that if you think an alarm wakes you up every day put an alarm clock next to a dead body. When I read this I thought it was a little extreme. Like come on, an alarm clock doesn't do nothing. I know God gives me …
Pray Ceaselessly: Let’s discuss
So the phrase "pray without ceasing" comes from the bible verse, 1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18: 16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. As you can see "pray without ceasing" is part of an uplifting sentence in 1 Thessalonians chapter 5. I feel like these verses …
Nature and God
Watching Planet Earth really showed me the amazing power of God. Have you watched it? There were so many things that I did not know! Like the ocean is just one big expanse of nothing. The animals that live there have to continuously swim to find their food. There are special places where there is …
Have Strength
The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? Psalms 27: 1 So in church this was the main verse the pastor used. It's such a good verse I don't even need to write a lot to explain it. In this world …

If you truly believe that Jesus loves everyone and that He's coming back to save the world why would you keep that …
Let go and let God
As someone who is a bit of a control freak I am guilty of this. I'm not overtly a control freak which is worse because I didn't realise it until I started losing control of everything. It was annoying. I was used to having control of most things in my life and I was used …
Love Lifted Me
Love lifted me Love lifted me When nothing else would help, love lifted me (x2) (hallelujah) You know when you listen to a song but the words don’t fully sink in? This happened with Love Lifted Me. We would sing this song all the time at pathfinders and in church and it’s a great hymn. …
Like a Baby Turtle FIGHT ON!
I was watching Africa, the wildlife documentary with David Attenborough. I love animals and a lot of the stories captured me but the one of the baby turtles the most. So they pop out of their nest and their first instinct is to sprint to the sea. They're so determined and small it's adorable! Normally …
Single Equals Bitter?
Okay, so recently I've been thinking, what is the point of marriage? I get it, it's nice being with one person for the rest of your life. You feel the love, you get companionship and a partner in crime. There is a part of me that wants those things. However there is another part of …
