falling down

no matter how many times we realize that we need to start to be good, we always come back to a point of being disappointed in ourselves. we think, finally, finally, we understand that we don't have to do bad anymore. But slowly and surely, the world pulls us back in. And then we find ourselves back at a point where we need to be saved from ourselves. We realize we put ourselves in a position that there is nothing left that we can do to save ourselves and we cry out for a hero to step in and save the day once again. Because of his love, he always is ready to come to our rescue and defend his loved ones from whatever the evil one has sent our way.
but why can't we just be saved- once and for all?
Why can't we be free from ourselves and what brings us back down to the same spot he just saved us from?
Why doew he have enough patience to keep on saving us, day after day and enough love to look past our failures and see something worth saving?
Why can we never be freed from this evil that wills us to sink down into its depths?
Why do we insist of keeping this evil, as though it was clamped to out feet like shackles when God has made a way for us to be free?
But then, these shackles, these chains that we put ourselves in, they are why we need a saviour.
This thing that we call evil is the reason we need Him.
this is a NEED- desperately important to our very capability to have any life and this NEED is for Him- all that He is- His heart.

HA! I LOVE IT!

In Florida, an atheist became incensed over the preparation for Easter and Passover holidays and decided to contact his lawyer about the discrimination inflicted on atheists by the constant celebrations afforded to Christians and Jews with all their holidays while the atheists had no holiday to celebrate.
The case was brought before a wise judge who after listening to the long, passionate presentation of his lawyer, promptly banged his gavel and declared, "Case dismissed!"
The lawyer immediately stood and objected to the ruling and said, "Your honor, how can you possibly dismiss this case? Surely the Christians have Christmas, Easter and many other observances. And the Jews -- why in addition to Passover they have Yom Kippur and Hanukkah... and yet my client and all other atheists have no such holiday!"
The judge leaned forward in his chair and simply said "Obviously your client is too confused to know about or to celebrate the atheists' holiday!"
The lawyer pompously said "We are aware of no such holiday for atheists, just when might that be, your honor?"
The judge said "Well it comes every year on exactly the same date-- April 1st!"
"The fool says in his heart, 'There is no God.'"Psalm 14:1, Psalm 53:1

woot for me...


hey girls! wow its been awhile. it seems like its been ages since ive seen you all.. i just wanted to say that i really wish i could come on Thursdays more often cause i haven't been going. life is busy with the baby and school as you all know. but i don't want to use those as excuses to hang out with my favorite girls. thanks for supporting me and praying for me through everything. i dunno what id do without all of you because i rely on you so much. you guys bring me up when im down and your always there to give me a hug even if you don't know whats wrong. im glad were all sisters...

xoxoxox

i've been thinking

sooo... guess what i got today?? wait. this font is really bugging me and i cant find out how to change it. darnn it lol. anyhoo back to what i got today... a leatter from the mission! i've been getting one every month but this one made me think, i dont kno how many of you get the newsletter mailed out to you but i think its been in the past month or so that you can send in money as a donation and buy a christmas gift for some of the families out there. this time it just got me thinking how i wanted to contribute to this ministry. but my thoughts didnt stop there, i dont kno if this would work but i would love it if we could bring this to our youth group and get donations from them and turn this into a huge christmas gift. so i dont kno if this is even a reasonalbe goal, but i thought that it might be nice to support the mission even tho we are not going there this year. so basically i just want to kno what you guys think bout this, if you think it might be worth it to bring this to the youth. i thouht that at least we might be able to get something. some things you can buy are for as little as 8 bucks. thats cheap. so i think that im just going to email mike and see what he thinks. please let me kno what you think of this:) love you all soo much♥
