what do people see?

Picture David when he was a shepherd boy. Many who knew him in his pre- Goliath days would very likely have seen just an ordinary youth — one who lived at home with his parents and siblings, enjoyed the outdoors and loved music. But where others saw a typical teenager, God saw a king in young David. He saw David’s name being uttered in honor forever for even the Lord Jesus is called the Son of David! 

Picture Moses after he had settled down comfortably in the desert with a beautiful wife, lovely children and good in-laws. He might have seen himself happily retiring in the near future. But God had bigger plans for him. God had big dreams for him. God saw the Red Sea opening up before him and an entire Egyptian army being wiped out in his presence. God saw in Moses the deliverer of His people. 

Now, step back a little less far in time with me. See a little boy standing alone during playtime. Nobody wants him on their team because he is scrawny and seen as a weakling. As he grows into his teens, he suffers from an inferiority complex. He stammers and stutters so much that all his classmates laugh at him. 

But today, he is the senior pastor of New Creation Church. Each week, he stands in front of a crowd of more than 24,000 people to preach. And he receives invitations to speak in churches and pastors’ conferences worldwide. In those early years, there was no way I could have ever conceived in my mind what God saw in me and the dreams that He had for me. 

Beloved, God does not see as man sees. God saw in fearful Gideon a mighty man of valor and called him so even when he was hiding from his enemies in fear. God saw in young David a king and anointed him as one. God saw in meek Moses a deliverer and drew him out from obscurity. 


Today, God looks beyond what man sees and says about you, and He has dreams for you that are bigger than you can imagine!

Helloooooo!!!!!!!!!!!

I loved reading today's devotional on youversion. It's nice to know that where people  see a crazy girl, or a stupid boy, God sees His Child or a lovable person. God's love for us is indescribable....
Where people see a handsome guy and a pretty girl, God sees past the façade and knows what we are like...on the inside....

What's your heart like?

Just encouraging us to trust HIM everyday and to love being HIS own :)

Song of the day- Busted Heart by for KING and COUNTRY

THE WAY OF LOVE :)

Helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!
This Song makes me drunk For King and Country- Baby Boy :)
How are you doing today?
Been having a little writers block :( Couldn't figure out what to blog about today and after much thoughts and goofing around and talking to GOD, I finally figured it out.......It's about the greatest attribute of all time......LOVE!!!!
It's one of the most important, yet, most difficult attribute to abide by....
It's beautiful yet hated.....
It's kinda hard to live by, not because we are selfish or anything but WE have to come first sometimes right?....It's 'ME FIRST' then others follow....

For some reasons, I stumbled on 'for KINGS AND COUNTRY' (heartbroken that BARLOW GIRL wont be singing any more :( Why do all good things come to an end? ) and I'm hooked with their music...They are slowly becoming  a cancer...I love them.....Ok back to our topic....Was listening to one of the songs by 'for KING and COUNTRY'and they quoted this verse from the bible and its' TRUTH!!!

The Way of Love


"13 If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don’t love, I’m nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate.

If I speak God’s Word with power, revealing all his mysteries and making everything plain as day, and if I have faith that says to a mountain, “Jump,” and it jumps, but I don’t love, I’m nothing.
3-7 If I give everything I own to the poor and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr, but I don’t love, I’ve gotten nowhere. So, no matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do, I’m bankrupt without love.
Love never gives up.
Love cares more for others than for self.
Love doesn’t want what it doesn’t have.
Love doesn’t strut,
Doesn’t have a swelled head,
Doesn’t force itself on others,
Isn’t always “me first,”
Doesn’t fly off the handle,
Doesn’t keep score of the sins of others,
Doesn’t revel when others grovel,
Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth,
Puts up with anything,
Trusts God always,
Always looks for the best,
Never looks back,
But keeps going to the end."

- 1 Corinthians 13:1-7 (the message)

Realistically, Can you apply the words in your lives- Like looking for the best in people and not judging or hating them right away....or loving others that you don't hurt them or loving so hard that you forgive?

True Love helps keeps a relationship, like they say "You don’t love a woman because she is beautiful, but she is beautiful because you love her."

The greatest example of love was shown by God and His son, Jesus. Each day we have is an opportunity for them to love us. I also love and Respect the teachers who died for their students in Newton, they proved that one human being can truly love another the way God loved us. Also, I respect the moms and dads and friends and families and volunteers who work tirelessly and show love in more than one way.

Love!!!! It's hard showing it sometimes. But what I do, is tell God how hard it is and beg HIM for strength and Grace to practice true love when dealing with others especially in little things....

Nothing makes sense without love. Preach love today, spread its message, practice it and watch the world become a better place to live in....
