1 Thes. 5:16-18
"Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus" 1 Thes. 5:16-18
We talked about this in family group (a group of students with a staff family on Wed. morning to discuss passages, books, ect.) and some people brought really good points, I would love to share with yall. Feel free to comment [respectfully] and throw in your input please. :)
1. "Rejoice always..." We mulled over this a bit and this is a much shorter version of the conclusion we came to: Have joy in all crimcumstance. Joy is having hope, not necessarily being happy. I would even venture to say even when you hate it, hate it with a smile. This also relates to Romans 12:12 "Be joyful in hope, patient in afflicition, and faithful in prayer"
2. "...pray continually..." Take a look at Psalm 119:164 with me; "Seven times a day I praise you for your righteous laws." Well seven times represents fully doing something/fullness. A. you have decide for your self what praise and prayer are. I believe prayer is a way of communicating with God and praising is a way to do that (through dance, song, ect.). I think it was well said by a teacher here: He was explaining that him and his wife will have talks and kinda put that talk on pause to go there seperate ways/go throughout the day and reconveine later. Same thing I think talk to God in the morning while your getting ready, in the car and when you get to class/work just put that talk on hold until you have time to devote to Him, again. (but make that time with Him a priority).
3. "...give thanks in all circumstances" Again, "Be joyful in hope, patient in afflicition, and faithful in prayer" Romans 12:12. These verses really run together. To give thanks in all circumstances when its good or bad, thank God because your circumstances could be SO much worse. Also, in giving thanks be reminded of the people that are in your "bad" situation everyday. Give thanks, because your still alive to do so. God gave you more time on this earth and all though we (most of us) would rather be with Him in Heaven, He gave us more time to spread His Word, that we have the privledge of beleiving and practicing.
So like I said this is just some stuff we talked about in family group, feel free to leave comments! Thanks guys! :)

Jeremiah 29:11...
"'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.'"
I have really learned over the past year especially that when you ask God to take control and tell Him that you'll do what He wants... You better mean it! When we ask God to take control He does, to the uttmost. If you asked me in Aug./Sept. what I was gonna do with the rest of the year I would have said graduate in May/June and then go to Texas State. Now it's January, I graduated high school in Dec. which was a miracle in it self and now I live on the side of mountain and i'm going to a bible program.Then, in the fall i'll be going to Blinn in College Station- last place I thought I would end up. Does God work in mysterious ways or what!? Welp, i'm really learning that God really does control my life and that as much as I try to deal with things 'my own way', I can't. I will fail everytime and thank God for that. His way is so much better. :)
Also, if you'd like text me/message me on fb/comment below and I will send you spontantious bible verses... I don't wanna say daily/weekly because i'm not exactly sure when i'll be sending them out but anyways feel free to also send in prayer requests! I'm doing this selfishly I admit- I wanna be in the word more and I know, that for me knowing I have people that are expecting something will hold me accountable. Anywho, if you'd like the verses/prayers let me know!
One last thing, on my heart/mind... If you aren't feeling called to do something inpaticular like go to college per say, think what are you really truely being called to do. For me, I do not feel called to go to college, but I feel called to honor my parents and I know that's what they want for me and thats why i'm going. Can I get an Amen!?
Thanks for reading y'all,
Sweet & Sassy

"God...
This week/past few days I have really learned what it is to have God be center of my life. I'm struggling so much! It seems like something else always gets in the way and it's easy to not have a quiet time here and not think its a big deal, because we are in the word SO MUCH. But i'm learning it doesnt work like that. If i'm not in the word indivually, i'm not growing indivually with God... I'm REALLLLY struggling, please keep this is in your prayers. I need God to be the center and the focus, but how do I do that when there is much else going on!?
Also, i've been trying to learn how to listen, or better yet hear God. Sometimes I think to myslef "is He just ignoring me or am I deaf? Whats the deal God, I need some help here!" A close friend posted a status yesterday that said, "God help me i'm down here on my knees begging you to help me". I'm so jealous of this person's strength in hard times and i'm saying the same thing. God, help me!! IM ON MY KNEES BEGGING YOU TO HELP!!! I haven't been that strong lately, I tried to deal with 'filling a viod' in my own way... and needless to say, it didn't work out. It never does when we try to do it on our own.
WELP! That's about it, also i'm still planning my wedding. haha I do enjoy it, SOOO much! :)
Please keep my in your prayers, sorry this one was kinda whinny (i have been whinny lately).

THIS JUST IN..
so let me update you on a few things; wedding. workout. relationship.
where to start....
Relationship...
or lack there of. so me and my boy, Z ended things. It's for the best. I don't wanna go into detail, but relationships should be God's will, not your own. I'm not bitter or even sad anymore because of this... " 'For I know the plans that I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope' " Jeremiah 29:11. If it's not God's plan for me, then I don't want it. Can I get an Amen?!
Workout/Diet...
So if your my friend on facebook, you saw that last week wasn't my best. I admit I had a few off days, well really just one... Other than that I'm rockin and rollin on this diet/workout thing. I feel better already and we have only been doing it two weeks now. Yes, it's still hard but I feel so much better! Yall, it is awesome and recommend it to anyone [sidenote: "Your accent plaques your text" -Tal Penner. I'm aware I say "yall" like its nobody's buisness, no need to judge]!
Wedding...
Don't worry Momma, i'm not getting married.. yet ;) but yall.. I LOVE WEDDINGS! and more importantly i LOVE LOVE LOVE to plan them, so I did a planning on my own wedding and I have some pretty great ideas, if I do say so myself! ;)
Dress: Girls- teal, blue, or green, or yellow bridesmaids dresses (short and all different styles, but same colors) with COWBOY BOOTS!!! :) i am a southern girl!!! ;)
Boys: Morning Tux, brown, caramely colors with dark drown sperrys. :)
Colors: teal (greens and blues) and yellow and white (duh!)!
ofcourse i want the long gown, butterfly cut at top and then kinda poof at the waste (just a little, not tooo much, because no one wants to look like a cupcake)
maybe at brunch time ( i kinda stole that from my roomy, allie sue!) but maybe like 11-2ish or like sundown.. i like sundown.. i want it to be on a ranch so i got to pic a cooler time of day.
also.. i want my reception and ceremony to be at the same place. i have a big family so if we get them in the same its already been a miracle, it wont happen twice!
I can't decide if i want picnic tables or not.. but it'll definitely be a backyard wedding.
For the kids i wanna pony rides and i think we'll have a "Western photobooth" and that picture will be the present for the guests.
we'll probably have a decorate your own cake for everyone at the end, like little mini cakes
i want everyone to be involved. :)
also...
borrow: earrings from Momma
blue: blue on my cowboy boots :)
old: probably something from Mops or Granny!
new: wedding ring DUH... jk i have no clue about this.
I want it to be backyard with a touch of elegance and ton of fun!
and now all i need is the groom! :) hah wish me luck!
