National Day Of Prayer

Today is the national day of prayer. I love this day. Every year at school I used to look forward to this day because it was the one day when people who wanted to would gather around the flag pole and pray. It's the one day of year where I feel most peaceful, just thinking about people all over the world praying. People actually taking time to stop and talk to God. It is an amazing day and I look forward to it every year, and I love this day! At least our nation has still one day set aside for prayer. Now if only people would spend more days in prayer our nation would be even more peaceful than before. Everyone take time to pray, thank God for the things in your life and for his goodness. Pray for his blessings and ask for his forgiveness, and forgive others so you will be forgiven. It's hard, but with God's help you can come to a place where you feel peace even about the bad things that has happened to you. So don't fret or fear, forgiveness isn't easy but it's possible. At least the world is praying! Thank the Lord!

God Does Heal

First, I don't think God puts stuff on us. God is pure and holy he doesn't cause bad things to happen. I believe that because with man there is sin in the world, and sin brings conquesences. If anyone is to blame it's sin and the devil. I never think God has brought anything on me. I feel the opposite. I could have never made it through without him. When I was little well I had a horrible childhood. The sickness was undiagnosed then and I would be sick and no one knew what was wrong, causing problems with me. It affects the way I think, like I get paranoid sometimes, hysterical, anxiety attacks, it also causes diharreaha, then constipation, blood from rectum, etc. I've had 2 colonospy's in my life and I'm still in my 20's, I have also had a semiosopy thing. Some horrible tests done, that I never want to have to do again! What feels like hundreds of blood work, needles, mri's, cat scans, x-rays, you name and I've probablly have had it done. I felt like I was going insane, and finally they put me on anti depressants, The thing is I'm not a depressed person, the disease causes severe mood changes, like one minute I will be so happy and feeling a thousand miles high, and the next I feel as though I've hit rock bottom. I'm on 2 100 mg of Zoloft a day. Yeah, nice huh. LOL. I also have xanax as needed, I have a mucsule relaxer, cause certain parts of my body will start twitching for no appareant reason, it also helps keeps the miragrane headaches away. Will I guess there really tension headaches, but there horrible. I also have prescription pain pills I take as needed, when I'm on my period that's every single day of the period, some twice a day. It's horrible. I've been admitted to the hospital because of my period, because my blood pressure has fallen really low and I get week, dizzy, extreme pain everywhere and feel like I'm dying. I can only say that the grace of God has gotten me through them. I remember when I was younger and first started having the horrible periods, I would have to sleep them off with a heating pad, I really needed ten heating pads, but I remember when I would wake up I would feel the prescence of God in the room and could hear church hymns being sung, and I would think to myself God has gotten me through it again. I have felt him heal my stomach when the stomach pain was so sharp and intense like a thousand stabbing knives twisting my stomach apart. I've been prayed for and I have felt God's healing power. I know I'm alive today because he spared my life. I acutally have a death story I could tell you. I was going to die, if not died one night in my sleep, It was like I was about to reach Heaven's doors, and then I woke up gasping for breath and I could smell this horrible smell, like the smell of death, and I knew God had spared my life. So you see, I could have never made it in this life without the healing power of God. I also have head problems as well.

Ok, second my head pains. Like almost 3 years ago I had a very bad car wreck and totaled the car. I blacked out for a second and came too thinking I shouldn't be alive. I know God is protecting me. I had a concussion and have had head / neck pain ever since then. I've had mri's, but they've always been normal. So I just have pain to deal with from that sometimes. A lot really. But I always tell myself it could be worse, I could be dead, totally messed up or worse. I know that God has always been with me and healed me and spared my life. I have huge faith in God and God's healing power. I believe the verse that says if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed you can move mountains, or something like that. I have a lot of faith in healing from God. And it's because I've read the stories in the Bible and believed them, then knew God could heal me, and then felt his healing in me over and over again. So even though I suffer, God never promised we would have it easy, and I think sometimes we bring things on ourselves, like I blame only myself for the car wreck, if I hadn't looked down for that split second I wouldn't have hit the car in front of me when they stopped suddenly. But anyhow, so I don't give into the notion that God brings us pain, because I believe he doesn't, I believe that he helps us through the pain, we just sometimes need the faith to believe he's capable of anything, even healing something like what I have Porphyria, any other kind of disease or even aids, something there's no cure for, God can do anything, just pray and believe and it will happen. That's how I look at things, God will take care of me. I have very strong beliefs on God and his healing power.

God Is Already There

When the burdens of life overcome you
When all hope seems like it's gone from you
When the worries of the world weighs on you
Rest assure that God is already there.

When life seems like it's given up on you
When hope is gone and you lost all faith too
When times are rough and you have nobody to turn to
Rest assure that God is already there.

Even at the bad times of life,
Even if the road is too hard to walk,
Or if the mountain is too steep to climb,
Rest assure that God is already there.

God is there with you through the good and the bad.
God will never leave you alone.
Even when you feel like nobody's there,
In the silence you can hear God through a prayer.
Rest assure that God is already there.

A Psalm in the Night

A Psalm in the night. That’s all I have to offer you is a Psalm in the night. My thoughts betray me, my mind is heavy and I am sleepless and frightened. Like a child of the dark, or of a monster under her bed. I am alone in a dark place and it scares me, no lights, and no lights about to guide me out of this maze of insecurity. I am frightened, I feel helpless, but I know I’m not alone, not completely, because I know that through it all, in it all, and above it all, I will always have God with me. He is my protector of the night, my guide to the new light. The only one who can save me from losing all grips on reality. He is my only hope. There is no cure for this disease, which plagues me day by day and slowly wears down on the particles of my being. Man cannot help me anymore. I can take no more medicine, I can find no cure. My only salvation is in God. I feel God making me stronger and leading me day by day. And I know that if anyone can cure me or get me through this, it is God. He is freeing me from this prison cell I’m in. There’s no bars, no doors, but I am trapped and cannot get out, but my help is coming, my help is coming in the name of the Lord, Jesus Christ. Jesus thou son of David have mercy on me.

Belief

Belief is something a lot of people have trouble with. What do you believe in? That's the main question everyone needs to be asked. But instead of analyzing everyone else. Here's what I believe in.

I Believe.....................................

1) I believe in God, about all else God is very real.
2) I believe in Heaven and Hell. Yes satan too.
3) I believe that true love is out there for those who are meant for it. No I do not believe that everyone is given a perfect partner here on earth. Look at Apostle Paul. He never married. So no, I don't believe in soul mates.
4) I believe in good and evil, there is a great battle being fought whether anyone is aware of it or not. A battle of good and evil is going on right before your eyes.
5) I believe in miracles, this should really be number 3. This is a very important belief for me. Miracles are the core of my very existence.
6) I believe in the possibilities of other beings. No no little green men with antenna's saying take me to your leader, but you never know what is all out there. After all this is a big big world, we would be very arrogant to assume that were the only ones here. I mean, for instance have you ever wondered if fairies were real, or if unicorns really do exist? I no it might sound strange, but it's something to think about.
7) And this should be with one and two, I believe in the word of God. The power of the Word. The power God gives his Christians when they are truly made followers of Christ. The power you have when you witness to a lost soul, when you lay your hands on someone to pray for them to be healed, when you pray that you will get by somehow and know that you don't know how except by the divine hand of God. No, we ourselves posses no great power in us. It is only through Christ we gain powers of children of God when we are born again. We get Spiritual Gifts. We just need to pray more on how to use them. Because a lot of people, I'm guilty too, don't always use the Spiritual Gifts God has given you.

I believe in a lot of things, but those are the core fundamentals. I also believe that this world is coming to an end. The book of Revelations tells us all about it; read it. Now, there talking about strange things happening on the news, bizarre weather occurrences, fights over seas, fights right here in our own towns and cities. But what we need to remember is to look to the sky. God is coming back. The bible says when Israel is surrounded to look up. God will protect his chosen ones.


So look up and be prepared, someday we will all have to give an account of our beliefs...

So what do you believe in?????????????????????
