                <description><![CDATA[ "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God."<br />John 3:16-21<br /><br />But I tell you the truth: It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. When he comes, he will convict the world of guilt in regard to sin and righteousness and judgment: in regard to sin, because men do not believe in me; in regard to righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer; and in regard to judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned.<br />I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. He will bring glory to me by taking from what is mine and making it known to you. All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will take from what is mine and make it known to you."<br />John 16:7-15<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ I don't like having a rant on my front page so i decided to avoid my homework some more and talk about fantasy <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /><br /><br />So i've been reading Harry Potter since Dec '07 but then i took a break around..uh..i think it was June or July '08. i got up to the 5th book and i just recently decided to start back reading.<br /><br />Well during my break i read Twilight and New Moon and fell in love~ and was convinced that the Twilight series was very qualified to compete with HP.<br /><br />But now that i've started back reading HP, i've realized i was very very wrong<br /><br />HP > Twilight<br /><br />So yeah...that's basically my point. i still like Twilight but as i said, HP is better by far: less mushy gushy, more fantastical stuffs, and more people to love <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/wink.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=";)" title=";) (Wink)" /><br /><br />have a nice day <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

A TEACHER and what do you do TEACH. this whole thing is not about you, it's me. now i'm not a selfish person. i'm not someone to call attention to myself or want to spoiled or whatever. i'm mad because you're RIDICULOUS.<br />and complicated? well i WONDER why it's getting complicated? maybe because you're being totally unsympathetic to someone who's recently had heart and anxiety problems and had to stay up early hours in the morning because she was at the hospital. oh but guess what...YOU DON'T CARE.<br />You're not the center of the world and i'm not either<br />you know what lady...i'm gonna prove you wrong. with God's help i'm gonna be triumphant and show you who i am. you think i'm lazy or irresponsible? bull that's not who i am<br />i thought you were nice. i thought you'd be better, a great teacher. well maybe you are a lot more informative and can actually teach. but fairness is an issue..a big issue that you need to work on. you're so traditional, so nonsympathetic. and you know how much i hate talking about people? well i do and i would never say this about anybody but you just tick me off. you make me look really bad when you're the one who's being so...so stupid<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ i really love fall <3<br />
i don't like the pine straw and stuffs<br />
but i love the mix of cold and warm<br />
the colours of fall<br />
with teh leave and grass<br />
it's sad things dying though<br />
<br />
i also love putting on sweaters again<br />
sweaters just kinda have comfort to them<br />
they're warm and colourful<br />
and come in so many varieties<br />
of styles<br />
<br />
i need to get more flats and cute socks/stockings<br />
my toes are getting cold <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/m/mad.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":x" title=":x (Mad)" /><br />
that reminds me~ operation Christmas child is coming up :3<br />
that's where you get a bunch of toys and necessities<br />
and put them in a shoebox<br />
and they get sent to all kinds of countries<br />
where poor children will receive them~<br />
i made one last year and it was really fulfilling :3<br />
sometimes the kid who gets it will even respond~<br />
mine didn't respond...most don't<br />
but it still felt good <3<br />
<br />
so my Christian Mind exam was supposed to be last thursday<br />
but teh prof forgot about it lol<br />
so it's this next thursday<br />
which i'm really happy about :3<br />
he gave us a really good study guide too<br />
<br />
i'm still nervous about Old Testament though...<br />
i'm hoping and praying he'll accept it<br />
even if there's points off<br />
all i know...is that I have God's favour <3<br />
and whatever happens will happen<br />
because it's in His perfect will <3<br />
pray for me though xD;<br />
<br />
so yeah...this week i have...hmmm...<br />
research paper on widowhood due friday<br />
momma's coming to visit for a day<br />
hopefully we'll get to go shopping <br />
& go out to eat <3<br />
Christian mind test, as i said before<br />
math homework as usual<br />
p.e. stuffs<br />
and probably other things too~<br />
<br />
oh yeah~ halloween this wednesday~<br />
my roomies & i made these little candy bags for our hallmates :3<br />
i drew on teh bags lol~<br />
hopefully they look okay xD;;<br />
<br />
so yeah...nothing much else...have a great week <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />
<br />
[EDIT. majors]<br />
<br />
forgot to say;<br />
i think i'm gonna change my major<br />
from psychology to sociology<br />
<br />
just because...to my psychology seems more statistical<br />
and i want more counselling<br />
of course, psych does have counselling<br />
but i think it's a little more science and math than i want<br />
to me soc has more of a...um...i guess cultural sense to it<br />
because soc studies the societies of different countries and stuff<br />
which...want i mainly want to get out of college<br />
is how to counsel ppl more effectively,<br />
learn about different cultures (how they think, live, etc.)<br />
and...there's more things i just don't know how to put them in words lol<br />
the only thing is...i like the title of "psychologist"....xD;;<br />
yeah *cough* lol....i may do an IDS major which is like you take a bunch of things and put them in to one major<br />
so i would take psych, soc, and either interpersonal counselling or art<br />
i really want some art classes in there too~<br />
*has been having teh urge to draw again<3*<br />
<br />
so yeah....just wanted to get that out lol<br />
advice would be good~ <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

Let us praise the Savior's name<br />
He has hushed the law's loud thunder<br />
He has quenched Mt. Sinai's flame<br />
<br />
Let us love the Lord who bought us<br />
Pitied us when enemies<br />
Called us by His grace and taught us<br />
Gave us ears and gave us eyes<br />
<br />
He has washed us with His blood<br />
He has washed us with His blood<br />
He has washed us with His blood<br />
He presents our souls to God<br />
<br />
Let us wonder grace and justice<br />
Join and point to mercy's store<br />
When through grace in Christ our trust is<br />
Justice smiles and asks no more<br />
<br />
He who washed us with his blood<br />
He who washed us with his blood<br />
He who washed us with his blood<br />
Has secured our way to God<br />
<br />
Let us praise and join the chorus<br />
Of the saints enthroned on high<br />
Here they trusted him before us<br />
Now their praises fill the sky<br />
<br />
He has washed us with his blood<br />
He has washed us with his blood<br />
He has washed us with his blood<br />
He has washed us with his blood<br />
He will bring us home to God<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ welll....here goes my last day at home~<br />
<br />
<br />
<i>18 years have come and gone<br />
For momma they flew by<br />
But for me they drug on and on<br />
We were loading up that Chevy<br />
Both tryin' not to cry<br />
Momma kept on talking<br />
Putting off good-bye<br />
Then she took my hand and said<br />
'Baby don't forget<br />
<br />
Before you hit the highway<br />
You better stop for gas<br />
There's a 50 in the ashtray<br />
In case you run short on cash<br />
Here's a map and here's a Bible<br />
If you ever lose your way<br />
<br />
Just one more thing before you leave<br />
Don't forget to remember me'<br />
<br />
This downtown apartment sure makes me miss home<br />
And those bills there on the counter<br />
Keep telling me I'm on my own<br />
And just like every Sunday I called momma up last night<br />
And even when it's not, I tell her everything's alright<br />
Before we hung up I said<br />
'Hey momma, don't forget to tell my baby sister I'll see her in the fall<br />
And tell mee-ma that I miss her<br />
Yeah, I should give her a call<br />
And make sure you tell Daddy that I'm still his little girl<br />
Yeah, I still feel like I'm where I'm supposed to be<br />
Don't forget to remember me'<br />
<br />
Tonight I find myself kneeling by the bed to pray<br />
I haven't done this in a while<br />
So I don't know what to say but<br />
'Lord I feel so small sometimes in this big ol' place<br />
Yeah, I know there are more important things,<br />
But don't forget to remember me<br />
But don't forget to remember me'</i><br />

                <description><![CDATA[ i wish i had teh poll option but i don't..<br />
<br />
so~ this will have to do~<br />
<br />
<b>Which language should i take for college~?</b><br />
<br />
-German<br />
-Spanish<br />
-French<br />
-Greek<br />
-Hebrew<br />
<br />
<br />
i'm leaning towards German because a lot of people say it's fun (but a lot say it's difficult too.) I've taken Spanish...forever. Don't really remember that much but it'd probably be an easy A. People have told me French is fun too but teh pronunciations scare me. Hebrew and Greek seem interesting but i don't think i wanna learn a new alphabet during my first year.<br />
<br />
so...help please <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." /><br />
<br />
<br />
<i>"Our God, You reign forever<br />
Our hope, our Strong Deliverer<br />
You are the everlasting God<br />
The everlasting God<br />
You do not faint<br />
You won't grow weary<br />
<br />
You're the defender of the weak<br />
You comfort those in need<br />
You lift us up on wings like eagles"</i><br />

<b>EDiT::</b><br />
I've posted this before but i found it again and felt like posting it again~<br />
<br />
"A girl went to a party and ended up staying longer than planned, and had to walk home alone. <br />
<br />
She wasn't afraid because it was a small town and she lived only a few blocks away.<br />
<br />
As she walked along under the tall elm trees, Diane asked God to keep her safe from harm and danger.<br />
<br />
When she reached an alley, which was a shortcut to her house, she decided to take it.<br />
<br />
However, halfway down the alley she noticed a man standing at the end as though he were waiting for her.<br />
<br />
She became uneasy and began to pray, asking for God's protection.<br />
<br />
Instantly a comforting feeling of <i>quietness</i> and <b>security</b> wrapped round her, she felt as though <i>someone was walking with her</i>.<br />
<br />
When she reached the end of the alley, she walked right past the man and arrived home safely.<br />
<br />
<br />
The following day, she read in the newspaper that a young girl had been <b>raped</b> in the <i><u>same</u> alley</i> just twenty minutes after she had been there.<br />
<br />
Feeling overwhelmed by this tragedy and the fact that it could have been <b>her</b>, she began to <i>weep</i>.<br />
<br />
Thanking the Lord for her safety and wanting to help this young woman, she decided to go to the police station. <br />
<br />
She felt she could recognize the man, so she told them her story.<br />
<br />
The police asked her if she would be willing to look at a lineup to see if she could identify him.<br />
<br />
She agreed and immediately pointed out the man she had seen in the alley the night before.<br />
<br />
When the man was told he had been identified, he immediately <i>broke down</i> and <u>confessed</u>.<br />
<br />
The officer thanked Diane for her bravery and asked if there was anything they could do for her.<br />
<br />
She asked if they would ask the man one question.<br />
<br />
Diane was curious as to why he had not attacked her.<br />
<br />
When the policeman asked him, he answered, "Because she <b><u>wasn't</u> alone</b>. She had <i><b>two</b> tall men walking on either side of her.</i>"<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Amazingly, whether you believe or not, you are <u><i>never</i> alone</u>. </b><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Did you know that 98% of teenagers will not stand up for God?<br />
<br />
93% won't post this<br />
<br />
PS: God is always there in your heart and loves you no matter what<br />
<br />
<b><u>STAND UP FOR HIM</u></b>"<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ fabby story <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br />
<br />
<br />
"Lt. John Blanchard was in New York City at Grand Central Station, and he looked up at the big clock. It said five till six. His heart was racing. At exactly six o'clock he was going to meet the girl whom he thought he was in love with but had never met. This is what happened....<br />
<br />
He had been in Florida for pilot training during WWII, and while he was there he happened to go to a library and check out a book. As he flipped through the pages, he noticed that someone had made notes in the margins. Reading the insightful observations in beautiful handwriting, he said to himself, I would love to meet whoever wrote these notes; they seem so kind, gentle, and wise.<br />
<br />
He looked in the front of the book and saw a name: Hollis Maynell, NYC. He decided to try to find her. With the help of a NYC phone book, he found her address and wrote her a letter. The day after he wrote her, he was shipped back overseas to fight in the war.<br />
<br />
Surpisingly, Hollis asnwered John's letter. They soon began to correspond back and forth throughout the war. "Her letters were just like the marvelous notes she had written in that book," John recalled. "She was so comforting and so helping."<br />
<br />
One time John had confessed in a letter that he had been scared to death when they flew over Germany. Hollis had encouraged him, "All brave men are afraid at times. Next time you are afraid, just say, 'Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me."<br />
<br />
As they continued to write, John began to realize that he was having romantic feelings toward Hollis. He wrote, "Send me a picture," and she replied, "No, I won't. Relationships are not built on what people look like."<br />
<br />
Still he was intrigued by her and longed to meet her in person. Finally the day came when he was to return to the States on leave. He mentioned in on of his letters that he was coming and would like to take her to dinner. She had arranged to meet him in NYC's Grand Central Station at 6 p.m. under the big clock. "You'll know who I am b/c I'll be wearing a red rose," she told him.<br />
<br />
At last the day had come. John waited nervously to finally meet the girl he thought he loved. Here is how John described his first meeting with Hollis Maynell:<br />
<br />
A young woman was coming toward me, her figure long and slim. She had blonde hair that lay back in curls from her delicate ears. Her eyes were as blue as flowers. Her lips and chin had a gentle firmness, and in a pale green suit she looked like springtime come alive!<br />
<br />
Excitedly, I started toward her, entirely forgetting to notice that she was not wearing a red rose. As I moved her way, she noticed me. A small, provocative smile curled her lips. "Going my way, soldier?" she asked coyly. I took another step closer to her. It was then that I saw... Hollis Mayness with the red rose in her coat, directly behind the girl in the green. My heart sank. She had graying hair tucked under a worn hat. Her thick ankles were thrust into low shoes. The girl in the green suit was walking quickly away. I had to make a choice. Should I follow after the beauty who had just spoken to me? Or stay and face poor Hollis Maynell?<br />
<br />
I made my decision, and I did not hesitate. Turning toward the woman, I smiled. Even as i began to speak, i felt choked by bitter disappointment. "You must be Miss Maynell," i said, extending my hand. "I'm so glad you could meet me. Will you join me for dinner?"<br />
<br />
The older woman's face then broadened into a smile. "I don't know what this is all about, son," she replied, "but you know that young woman in the green suit who just went by? I met her on the train. She begged me to wear this rose in my coat. She said that if you should ask me to dinner, to tell you she's waiting for you in that big restaurant across the street. She said it was some kind of a test.""<br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ So I had to write another sermon thing for teh forum <a href="http://www.eagleswings.visit.ws/">Eagles Wings</a> and thought I'd post it here also~<br />
<br />
<a href="http://s10.invisionfree.com/Eagles_Wings/index.php?showtopic=330&view=getnewpost">[link]</a><br />
<br />
<b>Psalm 91</b><br />
<i>"{1-13} You who sit down in the High God's presence, spend the night in Shaddai's shadow,<br />
Say this: "God, you're my refuge.<br />
I trust in you and I'm safe!"<br />
That's right-he rescues you from hidden traps,<br />
shields you from deadly hazards.<br />
His huge outstretched arms protect you-<br />
under them you're perfectly safe;<br />
his arms fend off all harm.<br />
Fear nothing-not wild wolves in the night,<br />
not flying arrows in the day,<br />
Not disease that prowls through the darkness,<br />
not disaster that erupts at high noon.<br />
Even though others succumb all around,<br />
drop like flies right and left,<br />
no harm will even graze you.<br />
You'll stand untouched, watch it all from a distance,<br />
watch the wicked turn into corpses.<br />
Yes, because God's your refuge,<br />
the High God your very own home,<br />
Evil can't get close to you,<br />
harm can't get through the door.<br />
He ordered his angels<br />
to guard you wherever you go.<br />
If you stumble, they'll catch you;<br />
their job is to keep you from falling.<br />
You'll walk unharmed among lions and snakes,<br />
and kick young lions and serpents from the path.<br />
<br />
{14-16} "If you'll hold on to me for dear life," says God,<br />
"I'll get you out of any trouble.<br />
I'll give you the best of care<br />
if you'll only get to know and trust me.<br />
Call me and I'll answer, be at your side in bad times;<br />
I'll rescue you, then throw you a party.<br />
I'll give you a long life,<br />
give you a long drink of salvation!" -- The Message</i><br />
<br />
Something I've had a hard with lately is actually realizing that <b>God</b> is REALLY here all the time. Some people have been raised in church so all of their lives they've heard "God loves you and will always be with you" But that statement doesn't really mean anything until you actually realized and understood "hey, i ain't gotta worry about anything because I have the Creator of every person, place, and thing watching over me all the time."<br />
You're probably saying "well if she's had a hard time with that, does that mean she's not a Christian?" No, I am a Christian it's just sometimes we forget that God is there with us. All the time. 24/7. Attached to us like glue. And unlike to Elmer's glue, this glue ain't gonna come detached.<br />
For me, I am a very, very shy person and absolutely HATE bothering people. And sometimes when I have the opportunity to talk to someone I like or think is "better than me", I won't because I either won't have enough courage or will think "well..he/she doesn't care what I say." Which basically comes down to.."I'm as scared as crap that I'm gonna be rejected." That kind of thinking is totally stupid because sadly..sometimes I forget that God is here protecting me. It doesn't matter if that "important" person doesn't like me because I got God. If I do decide to talk to that "better person," most likely he/she will be okay with me, listen to me, and maybe even smile or laugh. But..if I do get rejected, it's okay because God is my <b>refuge</b>. I just run to my Abba's arms and there He is to take me and love me. His arms, where I am "perfectly safe." (Psalm 9:1-13) Yes, if I am rejected it'll probably hurt, but with God here..with His Love..the pain will melt away if I'll let Him comfort me.<br />
I'm using myself as an example, but <b>God</b> can be your Protector too, <i>if</i> <b>you</b>'ll let Him.<br />
<br />
<i>"{1-2} I look up to the mountains; does my strength come from mountains?<br />
No, my strength comes from God,<br />
who made heaven, and earth, and mountains." --The Message</i><br />
<br />
The verse about talks about how God is our strength rather than material things being our strength. Sometimes we get in our heads that someone is "better" than us. We don't realize that we are <b>ALL humans</b>. No human is better or is perfect or whatever because of the things they have, their looks, their smarts, whatever. You've probably heard that a million times, but sometimes people need to hear things a million times to actually understand it. We're all the same if you really think about it. Celebrities were just like you at one time. They had stinky diapers, they lost baby teeth, they broke nails, they've even looked like crap before. They've just decided to either be conceited or be the best they can be. But, they also get hurt and scared and breakdown. They need a refuge too. Some do and some don't realize that God can be their refuge. And they can realize "hey..I got God..so I'm gonna be okay." Whether bum or celebrity or just a regular person, know that you'll be okay with God, the Creator of... ]]></description>

<br />
<b>Read this~<br />
(it may save your life!)</b><br />
<br />
i dunno if this is recent or anything, but my friend show me this email about people coming up to you in parking lots and asking "what perfume/cologne are you wearing?" or "would you like to try some perfume/cologne?" etc. <b>DO NOT</b> smell it because it's <b>ether</b> which <u>WILL</u> make you pass out so the person can steal your wallet or worse. In the email one person from mississippi and another person going to Birmingham were approached by people like this, so be careful.<br />
<br />
<br />
<u>here's some other tips that were in the email that may be useful to you say day:</u><br />
1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do: The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are being attacked or whatever and are close enough to use it, do<br />
<br />
2. Learned this from a tourist guide in New Orleans. If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse, DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM. Toss it away from you....chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or<br />
purse than you, and he will go for the wallet/purse. RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!<br />
<br />
3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car, kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy. The driver won't see you, but everybody else will. This has saved lives.<br />
<br />
4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working, etc., and just sit (doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc. DON'T DO THIS!) The predator will be watching you, and this is the<br />
perfect opportunity for him to get in on the passenger side, put a gun to your head, and tell you where to go. AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR, LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.<br />
<br />
- If someone is in the car with a gun to your head DO NOT DRIVE OFF, repeat: DO NOT DRIVE OFF! Instead gun the engine and speed into anything, wrecking the car. Your Air Bag will save you. If the person is in the back seat they will get the worst of it. As soon as the car crashes bail out and run. It is better than having them find your body in a remote location.<br />
<br />
5 . A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or parking garage:<br />
- Be aware: look around you, look into your car, at the passenger side floor, and in the back seat.<br />
- If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the passenger door. Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the women are attempting to get into their cars.<br />
- Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and the passenger side. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get guard/policeman to walk you back out.<br />
- IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.)<br />
<br />
6. ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs. (Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot. This is especially true at NIGHT!)<br />
<br />
7. If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN! The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; And even then, it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN, preferably, in a zigzag pattern!<br />
<br />
8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP. It may get you raped, or killed. Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked "for help" into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next victim.<br />
<br />
******* Here it is *******<br />
<br />
9. Another Safety Point: Someone just told me that her friend heard a crying baby on her porch the night before last, and she called the police because it was late and she thought it was weird. The police told<br />
her "Whatever you do, DO NOT open the door."  The lady then said that it sounded like the baby had crawled near a window, and she was worried that it would crawl to the street and get run over. The policeman said, "We already have a unit on the way, whatever you do, DO NOT open the door." He told her that they think a serial killer has a baby's cry recorded and uses it to coax women out of their homes thinking that someone dropped off a baby. He said they have not verified it, but have had several calls by women saying that they hear baby's cries outside their doors when they're home alone at night.<br />
<br />
Please pass this on and DO NOT open the door for a crying baby ----This e-mail should probably be taken seriously because the Crying Baby theory was mentioned on America's Most Wanted this past Saturday when they profiled the serial killer in Louisiana.<br />
<br />
Pass this on, it may save a life. A candle is not dimmed by lighting another candle. Dont send<br />
this to the ladies only, but gu... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Okay so I posted this topic on one of my forums, but the forum is kinda dead, so I'm posting it here~ read por favor~<br />
<br />
In a youth trip thing I went to last year, we had a discussion about this scripture..<br />
<br />
<i>For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.</i> <b>~1 Thessalonians 4:16-17</b><br />
<br />
The question posed was: <b>Are the dead in Christ already in Heaven right now, or are they in some kind of realm or something waiting to go to Heaven when we're called? </b><br />
<br />
So what I wanna know is your opinions~<br />

<br />
(btw~ i'm not talking about any of you guys--lub <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /> *hugs* ;-; )<br />
<br />
<b>Edit::</b><br />
I have a little prayer request and I would really appreciate if you guys prayed for me~<br />
This Sunday I started feeling nauseous, then felt a little better before i went to bed. Then Monday I woke up and I really felt bad, but went on to school anyway. By lunch, I couldn't take it anymore and checked out. I slept for a while and now I'm better, but I'm a little concerned because it wouldn't be good for me if I got sick again considering this week is exam week and i only have 1 or 2 more days sick days left. So please pray for me~! I know some of you are taking/have taken/or are going to be taking exams also, so i'll be praying for all of you ^_^<br />
thanks in advance <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br />

<br />
<b>Jars of Clay - Love Song for a Saviour</b><br />
<br />
In open fields of wild flowers<br />
She breathes the air flies away<br />
She thanks her Jesus for the daisies and the roses<br />
In no simple language<br />
Someday she'll understand the meaning of it all<br />
<br />
He's more than the laughter<br />
Or the stars in the Heavens<br />
As close as a heartbeat<br />
Or a song on her lips<br />
Someday she'll trust Him<br />
And learn how to see Him<br />
Someday He'll call her<br />
And she will come running<br />
Fall in His arms, the tears will fall down<br />
And she'll pray<br />
<br />
"I want to fall in love with You!"<br />
<br />
Sitting silent wearing Sunday best<br />
The sermon echoes through the walls<br />
A great salvation through it<br />
Goes to the people who stare into nowhere<br />
Can't feel the chains on their souls<br />
<br />
He's more than the laughter<br />
Or the stars in the Heavens<br />
As close as a heartbeat<br />
Or a song on her lips<br />
Someday we'll trust Him<br />
And learn how to see Him<br />
Someday He'll call us<br />
And we will come running<br />
Fall in His arms<br />
The tears will fall down and we'll pray<br />
<br />
"I want to fall in love with You!"<br />
<br />
Seems to easy to call You "Saviour"<br />
Not close enough to call you a god<br />
So as I sit and think of<br />
Words I can mention to show my devotion<br />
<br />
"I want to fall in love with You!"<br />
<br />
<br />

As I've told some of you honey bunches of oats, the SAT wasn't really hard, it was just agonizing and really really long. I think during the third section everybody was like "3e0ru8ie...okay..sleepy time...u_u..zzz..." And after that it was just really agrravating having to stay there and answer stupid questions. But I think I did pretty good..hopefully...;_;..<br />

(btw, for those of you who don't know what SAT is, it's a standardized test that if you don't make a high enough score on you may not be accepted into a college. You can take it more than once, but you only have like 4 or 5 chances. I've never taken it before, but I heard the test is really boring and mind-boggling and makes you want to scream.... ;_; )<br />

<br />
<br />
I got this from something my friend ~<a class="u" href="http://wisemen757.deviantart.com/">wisemen757</a> wrote and thought it was awesome and wanted to share. And think about it really..it applies to all of you somehow~<br />
<br />
<i>If you were with friends for a day say, how would you act? Youd talk to them, share stuff youve been going through, joke around, have fun right? I mean wouldnt it be really rude to go round with them all day, and only talk to them sparingly, for like 5mins? Yet a lot of the time we do that with God. Hes with us all day long, yet we run to Him for 5mins each day to give Him our shopping list of things we need done, then we run back out and do what we really want to do. Now Im not saying this to condemn or make you feel guilty, this is the truth, and I know Im just as guilty of this as the next person. We need to actually act like Hes really there! What do I mean? I mean maybe for you its picturing Him actually there with you that makes it more real. Talk to Him throughout the day. Prayer isnt falling on your knees before you go to sleep, prayers just chatter with God. Christianity is a relationship with an Almighty God, not a religion. And just like communication is the basis of any relationship, thats what prayer is for us. Talk to Him during the day. If things are tough, just say Hey God, you know things are tough, please give me the grace to get through them. If you feel yourself getting frustrated and upset, just say God, you are with me. Give me peace and joy, help me not get annoyed. Thats practising His presence, acting like Hes always there with you. Gods always there. Hes always there watching you, waiting to help you, to save you from whatever youre going through. He loves you! And Hes just waiting for us to acknowledge Him, for us to ask Him for help, so that He can intervene and work everything for our good! Man, I think it brings such joy to Gods heart when we know Hes there and are willing to acknowledge and practice His presence, He cant help but make you successful and prosperous, amen?</i><br />

I remember my preacher preached on this topic once and he said, "I never like to say 'amen' after my prayers, because I know I'll be praying to Him five minutes later. It's an on-going conversation." I thought that was really true. It makes me think of people who are lonely. They're never lonely with God. If He's there then you can talk to Him anytime and it may take a while to get a response, but you just have to be patient and wait. Now I'm preaching lol ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <b>Happy Birthday Ashleigh!!</b> *throws confetti* <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/p/party.gif" width="50" height="20" alt=":party:" title="Party" /><br />
<br />
I made a random survey because I am teh cool D:<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>-01.- What song do you think was written for you?</b><br />
So far, I'd say "Wake Me Up When September Ends" - Green Day because Billie Joe talks about his father which reminds me of my father and other stuff that relates to me.<br />
<br />
<b>-02.- Who colour do you think best represents you?</b><br />
probably a light indigo. Because I love blue and purple and having them combined is lovely <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> Though, most quizzes and stuff say I'm a teal or green-ish colour<br />
<br />
<b> -03.- If you were an object, what would you be?</b><br />
uh...a stuffed animal because they're soft and cuddly and comfort people when they need it :3 Plus I have like..600 all around my house >_>;<br />
<br />
<b> -04.- If there were to be a movie/manga made about your life, what would it be entitled?</b><br />
Either <i>"Aesthetic Wonder"</i>(8D), <i>"Euphoria Within the Willow Tree"</i>, <i>"Fetuses Smell Like Potatoes and Wood."</i>, or <i>"What the Crap?"</i> I dunno : x<br />
<br />
<b>-05.- What actor/actress would you want to play you if your life was made into a movie?</b><br />
uh...I made this survey thingy and I don't even know how I owuld answer this xD;; See, this is from my lack of knowledge of actors/actresses. um...Otsuka Ai or Lee Soo Young whom neither look anything like my but oh well xD; There's some girl that was in a movie I saw a long time ago that would probably work too. Anyway, next question..<br />
<br />
<b>-06.- If you were a shape, what shape would you be?</b><br />
um..either a heart or a star <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />
<br />
<b>-07.- What story/manga/anime/fairytale would you like to live?</b><br />
Probably <i>Fruits Basket</i>~ with all those lovely boys running around<33 *_* As for a fairytale, <i>Cinderella</i> or maybe <i>Snow White</i>. I never really like Snow White though because I thought her eyes were ugly <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /><br />
<br />
<b>-08.- What movie do you think best represents you?</b><br />
I don't see a lot of movies, but I think <i>Anastasia</i> kinda represents me because she was trying to find who she was and where she belonged and that's kinda where I am now<br />
<br />
<b>-09.- If a song were written about you or by you, what singer/band would you like to sing it?</b><br />
uh...DBSK possibly or maybe Otsuka Ai :3<br />
<br />
<b>-10.- If you made a charm bracelet, what 5 charms would you have on there and what would they represent?</b><br />
1. cross - Jesus and His love for us<br />
2. music note or headphones - love for music and playing music<br />
3. anime kitty - my love of anime/manga and kitties<br />
4. heart - my friends and family<br />
5. globe - my love for different cultures<br />
<br />
<b>I tag: <a href="http://1poetswords.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/1/p/1poetswords.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="1poetswords" /></a> <a href="http://taco-san.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/t/a/taco-san.png" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="taco-san" /></a> <a href="http://kmye-chan.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/k/m/kmye-chan.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="kmye-chan" /></a> <a href="http://lupy.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/l/u/lupy.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="lupy" /></a> <a href="http://blueorca.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/b/l/blueorca.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="blueorca" /></a> <a href="http://shuichikigai.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/s/h/shuichikigai.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="shuichikigai" /></a></b><br />
<br />
and because I made it and it's kinda crappy, you don't have to do it if you don't want xD;;<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ <b>Why is it so hard to tell the truth, yet so easy to tell a lie? <br />
<br />
Why are we so sleepy in church but right when the sermon is over we suddenly wake up? <br />
<br />
Why is it so hard to talk about God, yet so easy to talk about nasty stuff? <br />

                <description><![CDATA[ so I went to the art festival today. didn't win any awards but I don't really care. My crush got best of show, so i'm happy.<br />
<br />
and now I shall pimp..<br />
(I feel all mushy gushy and appreaciative, so forgive me if  this makes you puke)<br />
<br />
<b>Ashleigh</b>~ Pacman queen~ ;D omgosh you are so wonderful <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /> I haven't known you for long, but I feel so close to you. Even thought we're different on the outside, we are so much alike on the inside. You are BEAUTIFUL. The <i>Phantom of the Opera</i> piece you did was gorgeous. You know how much courage it takes to just stand up there and show that much emotion? That takes so much skill and talent! Remember that no one knows you're scared, so be fearless! I talk about this kind of stuff when I'm as shy as you, but you have a talent that you are going to excel at. Just keep your Faith and know that God will bring you to things you couldn't ever imagine. btw~ i love your mom, she's great :3 and Poncho totally has a crush on her xD!<br />
<br />
<b>Sarah</b>~ VENDING MACHINES! xDD omgosh that speech was so great!! I think you should have won because your piece was so original and had so much emotion and passion to it. I'm going to miss you so much <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /> When you go to Japan, remember you have a little amiga back in the States who loves little cute things and lovely Japanese men xD Also, I thank you so much for becoming my first friend in high school.  And thank you for calling me your "asian painting hero" xD;; I don't deserve that title but it means a lot that you think that <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br />
<br />
<b>Thao</b>~ I only got to talk to you a second, but omgosh the chorus was so good!! So much harmony and beautiful soprano voices~ I really liked your hair too ;D I can't wait until you because the famous asian singer/songwriter that you are <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /> *hugs*<br />
<br />
<b>Charlie</b> congrats on best of show~~~ ;D I'm so proud of you and how you've grown in your art abilities so much. It's amazing what original pieces you've come up with. You're so calm about things and just smile lovingly at everything, good or bad <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br />
<br />
<br />
Love to you all <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" />!!<br />
<br />
Anyway..so it was all good, kinda long though. omgosh..what was so embarassing though was when I was just standing there and turned about and my grandma and mom were talking to my crush. And I HAD to go over there because I needed to tell my mom something and I was SO friggin nervous going over there. So when i got over there my mom was like "so you remember going to preschool with Dannielle?" And my jaw kinda dropped and I was like, "NO MOM YOU DID NOT JUST TELL HIM ABOUT US GOING TO PRESCHOOL TOGETHER x________x" And the worst part was that HE REMEMBERED IT. And I was just...dead..and in shock...and like o_o and x_x so x_o AND THEN HE HAD TO SMILE X_X WHY OH WHY MUST THE BOY HAVE A GIRLFRIEND x______X..actually...i shouldn't say that because he probably really likes her (she's gorgeous and i think has a good personality.)<br />
<br />
Here, have a pic of him~ <a href="http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a245/rose_minwoo/danae/charleh.png">[link]</a><br />
<br />
Gah, I'm so crazy liking a boy with a girlfriend...but he's so cute and lovely to me ;_;..<br />
<br />
btw, for those of you that don't know, I used to "go out" with him in preschool..he was a troublemaker back then and now he's just...Charlie <3<br />
<br />
um..afterwards, ashleigh's mom, ashleigh and I went out to eat at some Mexican restaurant which had really great food (way better than Taco Bell.) And like I said before, even though I haven't known Ashleigh or her mom for a long time, I feel so close to them. Probably because Ashleigh reminds me of myself and her mom reminds me of my grandma.<br />
<br />
and that's it..I think.<br />
<br />
<br />
you are such a friggin dork tootsie <33 ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Okay, I'm sure by now that the majority of you know about the "six random facts about you" meme/survey thing. I already did it, but I got tagged so I'm doing it again~ BUT, this time I'm gonna put 6 facts about me AND my kitty ;D<br />
<br />
<u><b>6 random facts about my kitty</b></u><br />
1. sometimes she randomly smells like a potato<br />
<br />
2. the other day while I was eating breakfast, I accidentally spilled some Fruits Loops on the floor and my kitty started eating them. So now she's addicted to them..like, attacking me in the morning to get them x_x<br />
<br />
3. she licks EVERYTHING. even walls and clothes and the bathtub. my mom said she should go out and get a job as a maid<br />
<br />
4. she's really really soft when she's tired<br />
<br />
5. she loves to just get in the middle of the floor and lay on her back. kinda like she's playing dead, but kinda not. it's weird<br />
<br />
6. ...uh..she's a butthead? i dunno lol<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><u>6 random facts about moi~</u></b><br />
1. i'm a dreamer. As in, I have big dreams for myself AND I usually remember my dreams. I'm glad that I do remember my dreams because most of them are amusing and sometimes their meanings can be very telling on what I'm feeling (even if I don't realize it at first)<br />
<br />
2. April 15th is my anniversary for discovering asian music <3 So Saturday will have been my second anniversary~<br />
<br />
3. this kinda is and kinda isn't about me, but my grandma is the most random, fun grandma I've ever seen. Like she's not crazy like rides a motorcycle or anything, she's just fun ^_^;<br />
<br />
4. I'm usually a very calm, easy going person who never really gets mad, BUT if you invade my personal space I will bite your head off >_> <br />
<br />
5. I pronounce the T in "often" because I can~ And I spell words the way I want (like I spell shepherd "shepard" and embarrassing "embarassing.") Someday I plan on writing a little dictionary on how words should be spelled <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br />
<br />
6. I was actually supposed to be born on May 3rd or 4th, but my mom said I liked where I was, so I was two and a half weeks late =x On May 19th, the doctor told my mom that if I didn't come by the 21st, that they'd have to do a forced labor and I was listening so I came the next day :3<br />
<br />
<b>I don't usually tag people, but I feel like it <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /><br />
<a href="http://sephlorraine.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/s/e/sephlorraine.png" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="sephlorraine" /></a> <a href="http://rosebeetz-minwoo.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/r/o/rosebeetz-minwoo.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="rosebeetz-minwoo" /></a> <a href="http://corgiwings.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/c/o/corgiwings.png" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="corgiwings" /></a> <a href="http://hinghing.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/h/i/hinghing.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="hinghing" /></a> <a href="http://pandalemur.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/p/a/pandalemur.gif" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="pandalemur" /></a> :icontacosan:</b><br />
And of course you don't have to do the 6 facts about your pet unless you want to o_o<br />
<br />

<br />
-----<br />
<b>edit::</b> Okay, I decided to tell THE Easter story just because <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /><br />
I was looking up a story online, but I couldn't find anything I liked so I'm just gonna tell it myself the best way I can~<br />
<br />
<i>"On Passover day many many years ago, Jesus and his discples walked to Jerusalem to celebrate the occasion. Jesus requested that He ride on a donkey, so two of the disciples went and got one. When the people of Jerusalem say Jesus coming, they were overjoyed and started throwing palms and clothes in the path where Jesus was coming through. They shouted praise and honours to him and this was called Palm Sunday (which was last Sunday.) Some of the priests got jealous over the praise Jesus was getting from the people, including one of Jesus' own discples, Judas. Judas made a deal with them to have him killed. Then one day that week Jesus sat with His discples and had the Last Supper. His discples could tell He looked troubled so they asked Him what was wrong, He said He was going to have to go away for a while to be with His Father. They of course didn't understand and were frightened that He would leave (because they knew He was God and didn't want Him to leave them.) He also said that someone in that very room would betray Him which they didn't understand either. So then they did the communion where Jesus said, "This is my body. Take it and eat it and remember me." Then he took a cup of wine and said it's His blood and to remember Him by it also. After supper, they walked to the Garden of Gethsemane where Jesus asked to pray alone. He took a long time talking to God and His disciples fell asleep while waiting for Him because it had been a long day. After a while, Judas came with the rest of the conspirators/guards and arrested Jesus. Peter(one of the discples) woke up and was enraged. He took his dagger/sword thing and cut off one of the guards ears. Jesus said he should've have done that and simply took the guards ear and put it back on him and the guard was healed instantly. After they got into town, Jesus' discples started denying they're alliance with Jesus and betrayed Him. He was questioned by the priests and went through a series of questions with Him, then finally asked if Jesus was the Son of God. Jesus said, "I am" and He was then brought to Pontius Pilate. There was an enraged crowd forming and Pilate asked "what sin has He committed? I see that He has done nothing." But the crowd was too enraged and Pilate feared His life, so he kinda switched out prisoners. Instead of crucifying a murderer who deserved it, they put Jesus in his place who had committed no crime. Then the people started getting violent. They put a crown of throns on Jesus' head, put a purple rope on Him and made Him carry His own cross to the hill where He was to be crucifyied with two other men. They mocked Him as He was nailed to the cross. He was there for 6 hours until His death. One of the men on the cross next to Him (I believe it was on His left side) said "You truly are the Son of God. May I be saved and see You in paradise?" and Jesus said that he's saved and he would see him. After Jesus took his last breath, there was a huge earthquake and eclipse. They took Him to His tomb which was like a cave and covered by a huge stone. Roman guards stood by it so no one would try to steal the body. (Here's where Easter Day comes in..) Two days after Jesus had been crucifyed, the guards of the tomb heard something, then they saw a glowing light coming from the tomb. The stone was rolled away and Jesus came out, alive and well. Jesus' friend, Mary Magdelene came to the tomb weeping and saw no one was there and that Jesus was not in the tomb. A man asked why she was here and why she was crying. She told Him and then He said "Mary" and she realized who He was. She then ran in town declaring that 'Jesus has Risen!'"</i><br />
<br />
There ya have it~ kinda long, but oh well <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/letters/=p.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":P" title=":P (Lick)" /> After that, Jesus go visits His discples and they're like "wha..?..O_O..He's alive..~~!!" and He lets them feel the nail scars on His hands and feet. Then He ascends to Heaven and tells them He's coming back someday for all of His believers to be with Him~<br />
<br />
btw, Easter = Resurrection Day :3 ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <b>OMGOSH I'VE BEEN ON dA FOR 3 YEARS AND 4 DAYS TODAY :0!!</b><br />
<br />
<img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br />
<br />
<b><u>6 random things</u></b><br />
<b>1. i'm probably borderline anemic</b> because i am very cold natured and anytime i lose any amount of blood, i get woozy and feel weak.<br />
<b>2. i nickname everything and everybody~</b> for example, I call Heechul "Cindy" and Eeteuk "Tootsie" ;D<br />
<b>3. I am a <i>very</i> shy person.</b> Like at school I usually don't talk unless I'm spoken to first. But sometimes when I'm out of town or on my own, I'll talk to anyone and be almost out going at time. I'm also kinda social online, as you can probably tell ;3<br />
<b>4. I LOVE painting my nails~</b> When I was little, I didn't really paint my nails because my mom would complain that I picked the nail polish off too much (which I probably did.) But now sense I'm older, I paint my nails constantly~ And I'm forming a small collection of nail polish. Wanna donate? ;D<br />
<b>5. Half of my room is occupied with <s>stuffed mutants</s> plushies. Seriously.</b> It started the day I was born when my aunt or somebody bought me a plushie dog named "Ms. Lubbable" and it's grown abundantly since then <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> I have almost every animal you could think of. I recently saw an opossum plushie that I REALLY wanted but my mom wouldn't let me have it because she said they're gross ;_; (I think they're cute : x ) <br />
<b>6. I've recently started a collection of pins for no apparent reason.</b> I used to hate pins and stuff like that, but now I'm like in love with them. I think I have like 5 flower pins and then like 11 nickel sized pin things.<br />
<br />
<b>tagged to whoever wants to do this~</b><br />
<br />
and now go watch the end of this because you love acorns ---> <a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=yLi6I1beFo8">[link]</a> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Okay, so I went over to my friend Jessica's house and she had some cds she didn't want and gave them to me and one of them happened to be an 80s karaoke cd.<br />
<br />
so now i'm going to record myself doing karaoke 8D<br />
<br />
um... a few prayer request that I'm gonna summarize because it's storming outside ;_; First off for me because I've been feeling like I'm distant from God and second because the may art festival is coming up and i need inspiration to paint something~ And please pray for a couple that's a friend of the family as they're having problems in their relationship. He's 40 something and she's 20 something, but they're deeply in love. He just lost his job and she doesn't work because he doesn't want her to work. Apparently her mom is controlling and didn't want her to marry him because she wants them to get a divorce and she's considering it. I really don't think God wants them to split, so please pray for them. Also for my grandma's friend's family because they had a death in the family.<br />
<br />
passage because you love passages~<br />
<i>"Yes, Adam's one sin brought condemnation upon everyone, but Christ's one act of righteousness makes all people right in God's sight and gives them life. Because one person disobeyed God, many people became sinners. But because one other person obeyed God, many people will be made right in God's sight. All that passing laws against sin did was produce more lawbreakers. But sin didn't, and doesn't, have a chance in competition with the aggressive forgiveness we call grace. When it's sin versus grace, grace wins hands down.</i> <b>~Romans 5:18-20</b><br />
i think it's awesome <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/heart.gif" width="15" height="13" alt=":heart:" title="Heart" /><br />
<br />
rain is okay, but i don't like lightening or storms ;__;<br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ i post too many journals o_o<br />
blah blah blah~~~ elephant~<br />

<br />
do you ever think you annoy people? I mean..I used to not have that high of a self esteem, but I've learned to live with myself and even love myself (I'm still learning though) but I've always had this problem where I think I'm annoying people. Like I'll meet someone and a week later I'll ask "hey, am i annoying you any?" and they've always said no, but sometimes i just have this itching feeling that they're lying. I know it's the devil telling me that, but sometimes it's just hard. Like when I wanted to meet or talk to someone, sometimes i'm just really scared. All these thoughts run through my head, "if i talk to them, will they be annoyed by me?" "i barely know them, so they probably wouldn't want me to come over and talk to them," etc. It's just really annoying to me and something I've been dealing with since I was in elementary. If you wanna hear something really silly, there's this guy who's in my algebra II class and art class who draws and i want/wanted to talk to him, but i've never gotten up enough courage. All I was gonna do was ask to see his sketchbook or something. Plus I found his girlfriend's xanga which proposed the question in my mind, "well, he has a girl so he probably wouldn't want to talk to another girl." Which is stupid because I've seen him talk to tons of other girls. And another thing is he's considered a "smart snobby prep" and I'm...not so it would look odd to other people if I talked to him. I dunno, it just seems so..childish i guess, but it's something that bothers me. I guess if I just let it work out like my self esteem problem it'll be okay eventually, but what if I miss out on an opportunity?<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ it's raining now<br />
<br />
i just feel like laying out in the grass with the rain surrounding me, but i won't get wet.<br />
<br />
and just listen to the thunder and rain.<br />
<br />
it's so nice and calm.<br />
<br />
â¥<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
so I wrote a poem <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /> go read~ now~ <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/31169208/">[link]</a><br />
<br />
<br />
Oh yeah, and read this too because it amuses me~<br />
<br />
<u><b>Proof that God has a sense of humour</b></u><br />
<i>"...the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he knows their day is coming."</i> <b>~Psalm 37:13</b><br />
<br />
sorry...that just made me laugh xD<br />
<br />
And this is something you should also read because it is teh pretty~<br />
<i>"Though the fig tree may not blossom,<br />
Nor fruit be on the vines;<br />
Though the labor of the olive may fail,<br />
And the fields yield no food;<br />
Though the flock may be cut off from the fold,<br />
And there be no herd in the stalls--<br />
Yet I will rejoice in the Lord,<br />
I will joy in the God of my salvation."</i><br />
<b>~Habakkuk 3:17-18</b><br />
<br />
And finally, this because it's like <b>woah</b>~<br />
<i>He was looked down on and passed over, a man who suffered, who knew pain firsthand. One look at Him and people turned away. We looked down on Him, thought He was scum. But the fact is, it was our pains he carried-- our disfigurements, all the things wrong with us. We thought He brought it on Himself, that God was punishing Him for His own failures. But it was our sins that did that to Him that ripped and tore and crushed Him--our sins! He took the punishment, and that made us whole. Through His bruises we get healed. We're all like sheep who've wandered off and gotten lost. We've all done our own thing, gone our own way. And God has piled all our sins, everything we've done wrong, on Him, on Him.</i> <b>~Isaiah 53:5-6</b><br />
<br />
I love God â¥<br />
