Interpretations of God's love
Love to me and you "humans" is a love that in no way could ever compare to the love of God. Picture this, your in love with someone very deeply you say you would do anything for this person even if it means the death of you. But lets say that the situation presents itself, I might get second thoughts, I might even go back on my word, thats where God is different. God didn't have a second thought he selflessly saved you by killing his pride and joy, his Son who he was much pleased with. God sacrificed with out hesitation, without the possibility of going back on his words. That is love that only an loving Father would do. What God said through that is i Love you so much I would die to get to know you. He longs to know us and Love us just as we are. He created you and he even died for you just to be with you........ That my friends is love.

Find me here, speak to me
I want to feel you, I need to hear you
You are the light that's leading me to the place
Where I find peace again
You are the strength that keeps me walking
You are the hope that keeps me trusting
You are the light to my soul
You are my purpose
You're everything
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
You calm the storms and you give me rest
You hold me in your hands
You won't let me fall
You still my heart, and you take my breath away
Would you take me in take me deeper now
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
Cause you're all I want,
You're all I need
You're everything.. everything
You're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything.. everything
You're all I want
You're all I need
You're everything.. everything
You're all I want
You're all I need
Everything.. everything
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better any better than this
And how can I stand here with you
And not be moved by you
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this
Everything by Lighthouse
The song says it all for me and couldn't be any truer in my life. Your all I want your all Ineed....everything.....everything.

christian
Christ-ian: a person who exemplifies in his or her life the teachings of Christ.
Today in our society it seems all too often that that word gets garbled and munipulated and sometimes even hated. Being a christian is not just a title like King or President being a Christian is one of Christ is says it in the word. To be a Christian you must be of Christ and exemplify his teachings through the Words he left in the bible. I think to often being a christian just means that your a good person and the total meaning of the word gets totally misused. Christianity has nothing to do with being a good person, it has to do with being a Christ-like person. Being a good person will get you nowhere, The bible says in John 14:6 That Jesus says, I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the father exept through me. Good people have nothing on God. Jesus came so that no man could boast of his own good works. Ephesians 2:8-9 says, for it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is NOT from yourselves, it is the Gift of God-NOT by works, so no one can boast. its in the book its right there. So to all the "Good" people out there, all those christians who think its all about being good its not....its about being better than good, its about being a Christ like person.

Thoughts on cityreach.
wow im in awe of the power and awesomeness of the Creator. God is good. The topic all week was how big is God to you? well after this week there is not a thing that i see that God is not a part of. It is soo awesome to just feel God all around you... its quite humbling. I am forever changed after this week because God uses anyone who is faithfull and wants to serve him, he is not just gonna let you sit there if you have a genuine hunger to do his will. all it takes is faith...even if its a little step though i highly recomend a full jump of faith and i promise you , you will be greatly rewarded
Writing
doing this new free writing activity which really got me thinking, writing is more than scribbles that we write down that turn into words that have meaning. Writing is like the words we forget to say out loud that we remember later when the time has passed. Writing is every thought that your thinking right now. Its the words you wanted to say but didnt , the words you feel deep down in your heart. Writing takes many different "lables" many "feelings" many "descriptions" if you will. Writing is "love" ,writhing is "hate" writing is indiferent. Writing is a book, an essay, even a long kept seceret diary. Writing tells you what is, what isn’t, what might be and what will never be. Writing is a feeling put into words for other people to see. Writing is the beat of your heart translated through words.
For all the thing writing is..... what is it your writing about?
