God is good. ^__^

Each day, I continually see God's grace... pouring out upon my life. I don't deserve it... and yet God loves me. That right there, "But God loves me" is my joy each and everyday. throughout the bible, everytime I see the words "But God" and it brings a smile to my face, But God, because of His amazing mercy and Grace, gave His only begotten Son to die for our sins.
- God, I pray that my heart would look like yours Jesus...

Jesus, you are my first and only love.

Semester... ^__^

i realized one thing... I have not posted pictures on my blog in forever it seems, and I realized today why? ever since I got my ipod touch 4th generation that has a camera, I have not been using my green camera to take picures.. hmmm. so I have decided to start using both again so I can start adding pictures onto my blog again... lol!

My classes:
- Genesis
- Ephesians
- Epistles of John (Letters of John)
- John (the gospel)
- Growing in Grace
- Missions
- 1st and 2nd Samuel (which I don't start until November)

God has been teaching and showing me alot lately, I have noticed that this semester there is like 3 themes of my classes, it's so awesome how God has all the classes I am taking go together! God is awesome, ne!

the first theme is : Faith!
learning to have complete faith in God even when things are hard. always remembering that God will never leave me nor forsake me and will always be holding my hand through it all! it's been hard, lots of spiritual warfare.. but through it all God gives me the strength each and everyday, continually pouring out is amazing Grace... which brings me to the next theme.

the second theme is: Grace!
it's awesome to see how in every class i'm taking I see God's Grace! today in both my John class and my Growing in Grace class I just continue to see the amazing Grace of God. I was always confused between justification and santification. but today in my Growing in Grace class God made it clear to me, When we give are lives to Christ, we are save by the Grace of God through Faith in God, (justification). and after that many times christians try to then be good enough, but we need to realize that we can do NOTING without God. once we are christians we need Grace just as much as when we were first saved, conitually realizing that we can do nothing without God, but having complete faith in God that He can do it through us by His Grace, (santification).
all the more I just fall more and more in love with Jesus! Jesus Christ is Grace!

and the third theme: Not Doubting, but Trusting God completly!
with alot of my spiritual warfare, satan tries to make me doubt everything. from my salvation, to my walk with God to even just the little things in my life. but God continues to pour out His amazing Grace upon me and reminds me that satan may be stronger than us, but that God is stronger than satan and God is in us! God is my strength and my refuge... I will trust in HIm all the days of my life! ^__^

continually the verse in Philippians 4:13:
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me". continues to so much apply to my life, God will give me the strength an I put all my trust in HIm. I cannot do anything without HIm but in CHrist I can do al things!
To God all glory and honor be! He is my life, my first and only love! ^__^

Keep going strong for the Lord, He loves us so much! we love Him because He first loved us!
