Good Evening September 28, 2009

Hello!

One of my best friends drew this amazing picture representing each of us. She drew it from a picture, but pretty cool nonetheless. One of the years in mg, she drew a picture of tigger and pooh. Like a huge one. And then painted it. Super cool.

Tell me my best friend is cool. Eh, sleepover soon! Miss you girls. Aiyah, J, you’re too far away!

Dear God,

Hello! This is your daughter, Grace. I think you’re amazing. Absolutely amazing. I mean, you created the whole world and the heavens and the water and you created me! That’s amazing.

I just have one simple request. You made such a lovely day today. The sun, the wind, the heat after winter. Its so nice to finally be in spring! I know I should have taken advantage of the day that you gave today, but well, I didn’t. And it was a HUGE mistake. I would so love it if you could turn back time and go backwards. This time I promise that I will go and make use of the day you have created. I will go for a walk, and talk to people. I guess I just wasn’t up to it today or yesterday. Wasn’t up to dressing up or anything, just felt like staying at home. I promise if I had a redo, I’d go out and do something. I’d go out and meet up with people, or talk to someone. But I am going out for dinner soon, so I guess that’s okay. But I would like another of today. Another day like today, or even nicer. I would like another day more. Just one more day.

Won’t you like one more day as well? I would like to rewind, and rewind and rewind. I would like to go back to when I was a kid, and the only thing I needed to worry and think about was school and homework. I think its me not leaving the house, not getting sunshine, and not getting any social interaction that’s talking. But, I guess there’s more on my mind huh? (:

Thank you God, for everything.

I love you.

Grace, your daughter.

I’m in a fight not physical September 1, 2009

They teach us in church that spiritual warfare isn’t fighting against the devil, its fighting to keep the devil in his place, and that we’re fighting from the victory. Now I’m just wondering why anyone would want to be on the devils side. I mean seriously, you’re not supporting someone who has a shot at winning, you’re supporting someone who has already lost, and is a really really really sore loser. I’d take God and Jesus having the victory, and all that God has planned for me plus eternity in heaven. Now that, I’m looking forward to. Knowing that this isn’t the end really helps, because soon, we’re all gonna be jumping and praising God in heaven(: Now that, I’m looking forward to. I love just standing and enjoying His presence, soaking up and being surrounded by His love. Its amazing!

Last night, a friend of mine was telling me about a breakthrough her family had through prayer. I think its amazing what God can do. I’m counting my blessings!

Pastor Russell is doing a whole series on dreams, and dreamers. Its amazing, listening to what dreams different people have. Its not just any dream, but their God given dream. You know, if you see it, believe it, and present your request to God, it will come to past. I know what I’m believing for, what are you believing for?

I am counting on, I am counting on God.
