Thoughts

Sometimes....
God has to make me into a "demolition site."
HE tears things away that aren't right and aren't needful.
Tearing them out of my life, heart, mind, and soul.
Sometimes giving me messages through my Man of God.
Sometimes helping me through prayer, Bible reading, and fasting
It can really hurt.
It can sometimes take a little while to "get" what you are supposed to do sometimes during that time.

Whatever HE is doing.
Whatever HE is tearing out of my life.
Please do it.



Help me to see.
Help me to understand.
Help me to do.
Help me to learn what YOU want me to learn out of those times.
Because I don't want to have to go back and learn that lesson over again.

THOUGH...
Before HE can start and finish the construction site.
One must have a clean site to build upon.

AND...
When the building is over...
HE MAKES IT BEAUTIFUL!

My Daddy-O

I know this is late...
BUT HAPPY BIRTHDAY


AND FATHER'S DAY TO THE BEST


DADDY-O IN THE WORLD!!!!!

I love him so much! He know how to make the best chili, and the funniest Donald Duck voice. He can fix anything (vehicles, change tires, hang lights, put in electricity, paint, build, help with math, dust, vacuum, ANYTHING!!!!)... without even using any duck tape. He is funny, knows how to pray, crazy, loves God and follows his man of God, and supports his family. He teaches me things I don't know how to do. He is the BEST!

Simply,
A Simple Girl

{{Daddy-O's Birthday and Father's Day were/are so close I decided to just do one post to cover both.}}

I Extend Mercy- Indiana Bible College

I've always been one who doesn't like to accept help from others.... a VERY independent girl; and I still am.

Though NO ONE can do things with their own strength; especially when it comes to the things of God. I've had to learn to let go and give in and take God's hand for help and let HIM take control. As my Pastor (not my preacher) always says, "Without prayer in your life you won't make it."

CUTE!

I really like this little purse/clutch! :) I think it is fun and frilly...

Who I would be for just one day...?

I brainstormed, trying to figure out who I wanted to be if I had the chance to be someone for just one day. I thought about the many amazing women from the past and present. Women like:
~Queen Elizabeth I,
~Molly Pitcher the nurse and water carrier during the Civil War,
~Clara Barton with the Red Cross,
~Pocahontas,
~Eleanor Roosevelt,
~Amelia Earhart.
I wanted to be: someone who was a true lady with class and style. I wanted to be someone who loved Jesus with all her heart and enjoyed being with God’s people. A help to those around me, a shoulder always available, a listening ear, a caring hand, a kind heart. I want to be one who loves even if it means getting hurt in the end, and I want to be loved.

That’s why… I picked Tabitha, also known as Dorcus in the Bible. She was a true lady with class who loved God with all her heart. And….since she sewed, I believe she had great style! She helped all in need, no matter who they were. She fed the hungry, nursed the sick, sewed for the needy, and gave of her own with a merry heart.


Tabitha had a caring hand, kind heart, available shoulder to lean on, and a listening ear. Tabitha loved and she was loved. So much that after dying, those she cared for put her body in an upper room and had Peter pray her back to life. She probably never was wealthy, had a fancy house, or a pure bred horse to drive her chariot. She was a lot richer than any amount of money could have made her be. She was a blessing, a help, and a servant to all.

I've never been one to want to be like everyone else at all times... I rarely wore clothes that others around me wore; or did my hair just like everyone else. Don't take me wrong, I don't want to be weird. Though being on the extraordinary side of the scale was and is always more appealing to me. I want to be someone who can make a difference. Someone who's words match their actions. Not just another teen girl with hopes and dreams- but one who with God's help makes her hopes and dreams come true.

~THE LONGEST PASSWORD~

During a recent password audit, it was found that a blonde was using the following password: "MickeyMinniePlutoHueyLouieDeweyDonaldGoofySacramento"

When asked why she had such a long password, she said she was told that it had to be at least 8 characters long and include at least one capitol.

~PORK CHOPS..??~

In a zoo in California, a mother tiger gave birth to a rare set of triplet tiger cubs. Unfortunately, due to complications in the pregnancy, the cubs were born prematurely and due to their tiny size, they died shortly after birth..

The mother tiger after recovering from the delivery, suddenly started to decline in health, although physically she was fine. The veterinarians felt that the loss of her litter had caused the tigress to fall into a depression. The doctors decided that if the tigress could surrogate another mother's cub's, perhaps she would improve.

After checking with many other zoos across the country, the depressing news was that there were no tiger cubs of the right age to introduce to the mourning mother. The veterinarians decided to try something that had never been tried in a zoo environment. Sometimes a mother of one species, will take on the care of a different species. The only 'orphans' that could be found quickly, were a litter of weanling pigs. The zoo keepers and vets wrapped the piglets in tiger skin and placed the babies around the mother tiger. Would they become cubs or pork chops??

Take a look...




Now why can't everyone just get along in the world?
