"LOVE"


love, isn't that a word used abundantly these days. Some researchers say that in french it is the most used four letter word. Are we really using it properly though? i will walk around my high school campus and i hear girls telling girls they love them, and girls telling there boyfriend they love them and the other way around, but with in a week they aren't together anymore. I don't think they really loved each other.
when highschoolers go in to a relationship do they plan on getting married to the person they are going to be involved with or are they looking for a fun time, someone who they are compatible with or are they just bored of being alone. that is the excuse from most highschoolers, and why they become involved in a romantic relationship. but what you really need to go into a relationship thinking is can i see myself marrying this person, or is there even a possibility of me marrying this person if not why even bother starting a relationship: so you can break the other persons heart, or get what you can out of the other person what a waste of time. God thinks of breaking up as he thinks of divorce... he HATES it. Two of his creations hurting eachother mentally. why would God want to see that, and why risk the chance of getting you heart broken in the first place if you know you will never marry the person you are with.
so next time you think you are bored of being alone, and just need someone by your side always know you have the Lord with you every step of the way on this earth and you also have brothers n' sisters in christ. So instead of becoming romantically involved with someone go spend time fellowshipping with friends or spend the time getting to know God and trust the lifestyle he has provided for you and pray you will use the lifestyle to the fullest.

Skating For Christ

Skating For Christ also known as SFC is a great way for all skaters to get involved with a church oriented group of christians who have two goals when they go to skate the main goal is to praise the Lord when you skate don't just go out there to have fun go out there to spread the word that Jesus Christ is king and the second most important thing to do when you go out and skate with them is to have fun fellowshipping with other believers.

to find out more about SFC ( where they meet when and how to find them then) link on to it from my blog.

i'll never forget

"I'll never forget" is a poem i wrote in the eighth grade and just resently i thought about it and how it shows that God has done work in my life.

i'll never forget
i'll never forget the day
it's so fresh in my mind
my whole life was about to change
hadn't got much sleep that night
didn't even have my own bed
used to sleep on the floor
broken glass and more
i hate remembering those days
i'd go to the fridge
squirt and milk that is all there would be
one meal a day
i'll have to wait till dinner to see
over and over i prayed
for a new better life for me
would God hear my prayer
will see will see
all of a sudden my mom shows up
she finds out dad was taken away
problems at home horrible fighting going on
moms unable to take us away
panicked she calls my aunt and uncle
and asks if they can help
open up there home
for my brother and i to stay
no idea how long
but i new i'd be safe
had only minutes to pack
oh God what do i take
over and over i prayed
for a new better life for me
would God hear my prayer
will see will see
my aunt picked us up
took us to our new home
i got my own room
a huge bed for me
feel scared but excited all at once
tons of food all new clothes and a bird for me
finally can get some rest
no more bugs, glass, or fear for me
courts have decided this is the safest place for me
i never thought it would happen
but God surely heard my plea.
That poem you just read is all true and one of the biggest memories in my life which has helped mold me into the person i am and i am glad that the Lord placed me in the home with many struggles in my life because with him by my side i can be anywhere praising his holy name. in that poem i wrote i wrote things i wish i didn't. i realized i don't hate thinking of the days i lived in Santa Ana, i think God has used it to make me a stronger person and i could use it as proof that it doesn't matter where or who you are you can have drastic changes to your life if you believe in Jesus Christ and put all your trust in him and not in this world, anything can happen.
