Helping a Friend in Need

..Been pretty sick today.. My sis and I ate some,what we thought was good ol' chinese, and we both ended up getting sick from it. Don't know if its food poison or what.. but i feel like crap-which usually doesn't happen.



If I could pick one thing I love doing it would probably be helping others- It's the best feeling in the world to me! On friday night I got a chance to do so. One of my friends was having some difficulties with just life in general. Not necessarily anything bad as far as getting into life's temptations, but just with their walk with God. I tell ya it's the most amazing feeling to know when you are right with God that you are able to help them and not feel guilty or a hypocrit about it. This was a conversation I thought would maybe last 20 min or so but ended up being like an hour and some... I just love it when people are able to rely on you,and you are able to give advice,,,people say I should just be a psychologist...but who knows..maybe in the long run...=)

The best time of day is when I spend it with the one I love most

Im not sure what is or how to explain it, but God has changed me- changed my heart. I just don't read my Bible just to read it anymore, I read because I love to and have a desire to. And yes it is a little humiliating admitting that I just started to read my Bible in that way, but at the same time its exciting because I'm actually right with God and devoting, not just my mornings to Him but my whole day. Now, I'm not saying I'm perfect, because I am far from perfect, but I just find myself reading my Bible even when I'm bored. I'm so glad that I worship a God that answers whenever you call. When no one listens hes there standing by waiting for you to call on Him. He's there to pick us up when we fall. And if I didn't worship a God like Him I would be no one. I would have no point in living; No one to serve.... My heart burdens when I think about the past years. I haven't lived for Him, hadn't read my Bible like I should,..I mean, I wasnt one of those ones who never did anything bad, my walk with God was just not in the right path. But despite that, He still takes us back because of greatness, mercy and love!

Verse I read today

Psalm 27:1-8

"The Lord is my light and my salvation-whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life-of shall I be afraid? (2)When evil men advance against me to devour my flesh, when my enemies and my foes attack me, they will stumble and fall. (3)Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then will I be confident. (4) One thing I ask of the Lord, this is what I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to seek him in his temple. (5)For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle and set me high upon a rock (6) Then my head will be exalted above the enemies who surround me; at his tabernacle will I sacrifice with shouts of joy; I will sing and make music to the Lord. (7) Hear my voice when I call, O Lord' be merciful to me and answer me. (8)My heart says of you, "Seek his face!" Your face, Lord, I will seek.
