You are beautiful in God's eyes!

So last Sunday at church I cried for the first time in a service. The only time I usually cry in a church is if I'm at a funeral. We were talking about what God loves. They played this video at the end of it and it just made me think a lot.

I am getting teared eyed thinking about it again. I'll post the video at the end of this blog. It just made me think that no matter how we look at ourselves that God thinks we are beautiful! I wish I would have known that more when I was in high school! I think if a lot of people knew this there would be less of low self-esteem in the world. God wants us to know that no matter what we have done that if we want to change that He can help us. He can mold you into what He wants you to be if you will let Him!!! I guess just watching that video it just hit me more that if you are willing to let Him change your life He will. You don't have to do it by yourself! Tell God that you let go and are letting Him run your life now and just see how much better your life will be! I know mine is so much better when I let Him lead! It is my one wish in life that people know how much God loves them! If only they knew. It would change their life forever! Once I get all my stuff together that God wants me to do with my life I won't be stopped! God put me on this earth to do His work and I will!

My mom and I were supposed to die when she had me. My mom has always told me that that's why I survived! God has a big plan for me! I just can't wait to see what it is! I know it's to help people. Just not sure what field of it He wants me to do! So pray with me when I ask Him to show me where and what He wants me to do it! If anyone needs a shoulder to lean on or just needs someone to listen, I am here for you! Don't hesitate to contact me! If you have questions about Jesus ask me! If I'm not sure of the answer I will ask someone I know that can lead me in the right direction! Just because we are Christians it doesn't mean we know everything! I love you all!

God Bless!!!

Spiritually healthy!

So not only do we have to be physically healthy we have to be spiritually healthy! A healthy relationship with God is the most important relationship to have! You can always depend on Him to always be there. Reading your bible, talking to God in prayer, worshipping Him, and going to church! He wants you to gather together to worship Him. I used to think it didn't matter if I went to church because I loved Him! But I know now that isn't all that it takes. Having a good church to go to is key in your relationship with God. That way if you have questions you don't feel weird about asking. Also so you might see that you aren't the only one going through trials that come along with being a christian! Manny and I have finally found our church home! We are excited about going to church again! Manny is reading every day and I am reading every day! I also keep a prayer journal! I love that God has helped us to make Him first in our marriage!

For where two or three gather together as my followers, I am there among them.

God Bless all of you!
