Hello People of the Blogging World! (a Tidbit)

Hello,

I am a close friend of Just Ask. who will now be posting stuff randomly. Just as a heads up...things may get a little weird as I myself am weird...and Random.

Here is a small preview of what is to come...

<-This is a funny picture. Laugh. Like HAHA or something. Just do it. LAUGH!

Please... a prayer

Dear Lord,

Give me strength, for I feel mine failing.
I thought I was strong, but You, You know better. I stopped leaning on You. I started trying to wiggle out of Your helping, guiding hand.
And I think I did.
I think for a while, I really did.... and that was the dumbest thing I could have done. My greatest failure. I think I'm better than You... I think I don't need Your help. But I do, Lord, I do so badly... and I don't realize until I fall.
And I fall often.
So help me, my loving, mighty Lord. Help me take Your hand again. Help me to stop throwing it aside in disdain.

I need You more than ever. I'm not better. I see that now. I still am suffering. I still run away at the slightest show of problems. I still shut down... I still start crying like my heart has been torn out. And it's not even for the same reason as before. It just... happens. But I love You... I feel that again. You love me!! That's the most important of all... I just started to cry again. You are so amazing.
Please help me remember that.
Give me strength. I need Your strength, oh my Lord, I need You to lift me high above my pain so I can see past it... see to the healing. Let me see this glass as half full... why have I never been able to? 

You are my hero. You are my role model, my night in shining armour. You are my one and only, my true love. Thank You. Thank You for letting me see that.

Guide me Lord. Pull me out of this question. I know You are there, I know You are real, and I know, I know that it's Satan who is pulling me to think You aren't. Why do I feel doubts? I never have, You have been that constant, steady and sure presense in my life. Even when I felt like You had abandoned me, I still knew You were there. I never doubted that. Until now.
What's happening?
Why?
Make it stop, Lord, for I feel I'm not strong enough to fight it off much longer. You know me. You know how I struggle for a while, then give up. You know that's my largest problem... I have that break point, midnight for homework, a week for trials, and sixteen and a half years for You. Please, Lord. Please make me believe. 'Cause I don't want to face a world without You.
I don't think I could handle that.
I don't want to handle that.
So why am I making myself? Why am I looking for a way out? Why do I feel cornered, frightened, like a small abused child being approached by a stranger?
I shouldn't be. You are my COMFORT, not my assailant. I know this!! Why don't I feel it?
Please starve my doubt.
Feed my trust.
And love me, Lord. Please never stop loving me.
I need Your love.
More than ever.

Amen.

Sermon 10

Be Mine, Valentine
--God

Passage: 1 Corinthians 13:13
"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."
St. Valentine (vāl'ən-tīn'): Saint, died a.d. c270, Christian martyr at Rome.

Roses are simply, perfectly red



Violets are many shades of blue



Both He made in His loving way



And, just the same, He created you!

So, it's Valentine's day, but this time it's more special... it's on a Sunday!
It's like God's sending you a special Valentine, isn't it?
Well, He always loves you... no matter who comes and goes in your life. He is your perfect lover! You won't ever find someone better.
Give Him a hug today, and I'm sure you'll feel Him hug you back.

And if you don't understand why I used the last picture, you should go back and read this post.

Happy Valentine's day!
