Pimples.

Wake up in the morning, go in to the bathroom to brush your teeth for the day, you look in the mirror to brush your hair, and what do you see?! A pimple. Just what you need for the week right? Make-up doesn't always work, and popping it makes it worse, and of course any treatment won't make it disappear that day! Oh I tell ya. Pimples. Despise them greatly right?? I know I do! I don't get why such a thing has to happen in my life. It's not the most glamorous thing in the world.

Now you may wonder, Jenna why in the WORLD are you going to blog on pimples? Isn't this a website where we can turn and learn something new about Jesus everyday? Well, pimples can be used to describe something that happens in every persons life!Are you ready? I promise you I am not too crazy.


Get this picture in your head: Pimples are like problems in your life, now the problem could be anything. Friends, family, money, fighting with another person, health issues, losing someone close, pimples, any problem big or small.

Pimples are just like all those problems in life! Pimples are big, disgusting, not so great things to have. Just as problems are. They are not the funnest things to go through at times. Just like the morning before prom, when you wake up with a pimple on your chin, all you want to do is curl up in a hole and wish this had happened last week right?

 Now, with pimples you can try to cover them up with the wonderful make-up, now for  guys I don't really know if they are able to at least try to hide them, but us ladies all know we need lots of make-up not just once, all through out the day! It's a pain to try to even hide it. Same with difficulties in life, we all try to hide our mistakes, act like life is perfect and we are fine, but we all know that makes the problem worse, not better.

We can also start using pro-active or a treatment to make it go away a bit faster, but what we all should know is treatment takes time to work. Just like your issue can or will never get better in a day, Jesus is your treatment. Just as you should trust proactive, you should trust God and know that with Him all things will get better!

Psalm 126:5 - Those who sow in tears will reap with songs of joy.

Popping and taking care of the problem, is like making it worse, but it always heals faster right. Sometimes we need to toughen up, or man up whatever you wanna call it, and fix the problem. If that means you have to be honest, or real then do it. It makes it all better, again not right away but hurries the process up.

In the end the pimple goes away, life is good, and things are fine and dandy. But, if you don't take care of your skin, it will show up again. Just as in life, the problem will always get better! But, something always comes up in the future. We are not perfect, we all make mistakes as we get older. "Spiritual maturity isn't measured by how many times you have fallen, but how fast you get up and turn to Jesus." Be prepared!

God is willing to help you through it all, you know what Jesus is to me in hard times? He is that person that knows what to say, knows how hard it is..and most of all the one who carries me through it and makes me stronger. He wants to do the same for you! And He will IF you believe in Him!!

He heals the brokenhearted and bandages their wounds. - Psalm 147:3

Jesus, where would I be without you?

Easter is right around the corner. This means bunnies and eggs!!

Sorry to break to you but Easter is NOT about eggs, and bunnies and candy. It's about Jesus!! Jesus?? What? Yes Jesus :)

I was up late last night, just thinking about where I would be right now if God hadn't taken the pain and died for me? I got so caught up in the moment. There are so many things I wouldn't have. I wouldn't have a church family where most my friends are, I wouldn't have hope that things will always get better, there would be no such thing as forgiveness, there would be no grace, and mercy, there would be no such things eternity. Just think about it, where would you be right now if that friend hadn't invited you to church, if you parents hadn't forced you to go to church every weekend and Wednesday. I would be so lost. You know if God hadn't taken up the cross. We would be no where.


John 11:25-26
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.

Romans 6:8-11
Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him. The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God. In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus.

If Jesus hadn't taken the pain, we would be no where and we would have no purpose. Jesus loves you and I so much that He took the pain of nails being driven through His hands, and feet. He took the crown of thorns that pierced his skin. He took every whipping all so we could have eternal life! All for you. He loves you so much!!

I hope you celebrate the real meaning of Easter, and know that Easter isn't about eggs, and bunnies, and chocolate, and the movie "Hop." Easter is all for Jesus!!

Happy Easter to you all!!

Monoply money!

What we value here on earth looks like monopoly money in heaven. Monopoly money has no real value. During a very short duration it has meaning while throwing dice across a board game. But once the game is done and the box is closed, whatever monopoly money you earned is absolutely inconsequential. It’s meaningless.

The parallel to our earthly values is easy enough draw. We care so much about the opinions of people and the numbers recorded on our bank statements, but when the game is done and the lid closes on our coffin, none of it matters. You can’t buy groceries with monopoly money here on earth, and in heaven no one cares about how popular you were in high school.
 “Where will we be when our world falls apart and all of the treasure we’ve stored in our barns can’t buy the kingdom of God?” Our time here on earth is not about hoarding items and opinions that carry no weight in eternity. Our time is about creating eternal value through obedience in the midst temporary, changing situations.

God wants us to live for something greater. Don’t get to the end of your life and realize everything you’ve hoarded “can’t buy the kingdom of God.” When the box closes, what will actually carry weight in eternity?

 This song is called One Thing Remains by JesusCulture. This song reminds me that no matter what I have done, what trial I am facing God's love for me won't change, and its never going to leave me, it will always remain!

You see, God has got everything planned and in perfect timing, I know lots of times in my own life I have things happen and it drives me up a wall knowing that there is a very reason God is putting me through that "test" for a reason, and to better the person that I am! Sometimes, I just have to remind myself that God has everything planned and perfect and we just need to put our lives in His hands so He can take care of it all. Cause through Christ all things become perfect! Sometimes it's not easy going through some of the trails, but we have to trust God that it is for the very best! And, Jesus does..so there.

Y'all have a good week!! Be blessed!! 

Proverbs 3:5-6
“Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight. ”  

 

Whose time is it anyways?

Have you ever taken the time to consider what really belongs to you?

Scripture tells us that everything that's ever been made was made through Jesus. Nothing is created without Him. This reminds us that everything is the Lord's. The earth is His. The solar system is His. Every cow in every pasture belongs to Him.

Let's get a little more personal. We are His. Our lives are His. Every second of every minute of every day belongs to Him.

God has been using this truth to teach me about time management. When I am tempted to use my time to focus on myself instead of the needs of those around me, I am reminded that my time is His. When I feel like I'd rather catch my favorite show than pray or read my Bible, I am reminded that my time is His. When I start feeling like "I deserve" to spend my days however I want to, I am reminded that my time is His.

Understanding this truth has the potential to shape every corner of our lives. Think about it.

• How does it impact your media choices to know that your time belongs to God?
• How does it change the activities you will choose to participate in to know that your time is His?
• Does it motivate you to pursue less "me time" and more "God time" when you realize that time is His to begin with?
• How does it change your plans for the future to know that every moment you will ever live was created by God?

Your time belongs to God. How can you use it to serve Him?

Through Jesus all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made (John 1:3).

 The earth is the LORD's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it (Psalm 24:1).

God Bless!!

Do you feel like God has moved away?

Do you ever feel like God has moved away? Do you find yourself wondering what happened to the closeness you once felt with Him or feel like somehow your connection to Him has been, well…disconnected?

I do!

There are seasons in my life where I feel a true, intimate connection with my Savior. But, there are other times where I find myself wondering where He’s gone. I know I am not alone in this experience. Many of you have written on this blog that you just don’t feel close to God anymore, or that when you pray, you don’t feel like anyone is listening. If you’re like me, these feelings can leave you feeling anxious, confused, or even abandoned.

But, God’s Word offers much hope to us when these feelings creep into our hearts. In fact, the Truth of God is like a white-hot spotlight pointing out that when we feel like God has left us, we have been deceived.

Deuteronomy 31:6 says, “ Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

These words were originally spoken to the Israelites as they prepared to take the Promised Land. But the promise is repeated to us in Hebrews 13:5, “ Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”

Hebrews 13:8 tells us, “ Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.”

He does not change. He won’t love you one day and reject you the next. He won’t hear your prayers in the morning and ignore you in the afternoon. He won’t be close to you at church camp but deny you intimacy during the routine of life.

But there are two sides to this coin.

God will not leave you, but it is possible for distance to creep into your relationship with Him. The Bible points out two main causes for separation between us and God.

The first is sin.

Isaiah 59:2 says, “but your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you so that he will not hear.”

If you are locked in a pattern of sin, if you are unwilling to give up a habit, a relationship, or an emotion to God, you surely will experience a strain in your relationship with Him. If we try to hold on to that sin while simultaneously pursuing intimacy with God we will quickly hit a roadblock.

But there is hope.

1 John 1:9-10 says, “ If we confess our sin, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word has no place in our lives."

If God seems far from you, your first step should be an honest assessment of sin in your own life followed by confession. It certainly can be painful, but when we are obedient in this area, God promises to cleanse and purify us. That that allows you to move back into a right relationship with God.

We want to feel close to Him but we don’t take the time to honestly seek him through prayer and Bible study. His Word assures me that He hasn’t moved. He hasn’t abandoned me or changed His mind about me. He has promised to reveal himself to me. But these promises won’t be fulfilled in my life if I don’t seek Him.

So, what should you do the next time you are feeling far from God? My advice is to root out sin, seek Him through his Word and rest in the promise that He isn’t going anywhere.

 

This song is called I will not be Moved by Natalie Grant, speaks to me every time! You'll love it! :)

“ I am sure that neither death nor life, angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of god in Christ Jesus our Lord” Romans 8:38-39. 

Listening to God’s whisper; how many burning bushes do we ignore in a day?

Have you ever had one of those moments where you feel like a voice inside you is guiding you towards a course of action, or you just feel compelled to do something that seems either irrational or unexplainable, but it doesn't feel wrong in any way?

Maybe the voice or feeling guided you to give a sandwich to a homeless person, say hi to someone who looked particularly down, switch jobs, break off an engagement, "randomly" call a friend to see how they are doing or any other type of action that didn't have an explanation at the time.

Now, before I start out an article that sounds like another wishy-washy, boring rant about how "we should always listen to God's voice", I want to say that the greatest challenge in a Christian's life is to recognize, and obey God's voice when He speaks--most Christians couldn't recognize God's voice from the rumble of their own stomach, let alone do what He says!

Now sure, when you ask most Christians they might say that God speaks to them "in ways" but doesn't speak directly like He does in the Bible or to other people.


If you are a living, breathing Christian with the spirit of the living God inside you, then how can you not expect, and anticipate, that God would speak to you on a personal level?

Did God send his spirit to dwell within our hearts so He could live a quiet, unbothered life, filled with games of solitaire, parcheesi, and Bejeweled?

I am pretty sure God wants to have a personal relationship with us, and wants to do so intensely.

James 4:5
...the Spirit he caused to dwell in us longs jealously

After many years of soul-searching, and brick walls I have plowed face first into, I realized that there are many times when I have heard God's voice or felt His direction but flat-out ignored it, denied that I heard or felt it, or heard the guidance but then just flat-out disobeyed.

 Exodus 3:1-4
Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the far side of the wilderness and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. There the angel of the LORD appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up. So Moses thought, “I will go over and see this strange sight—why the bush does not burn up. ”When the LORD saw that he had gone over to look, God called to him from within the bush, “Moses! Moses!”

And Moses said, “Here I am.”

In this example it is important to note that God chose to present something fairly eye-catching, but also gave Moses the choice to either ignore it in favor of tending his flock or walk over and see what the burning bush was all about.

I think most people would go over and see what a random, flaming shrubbery is doing in the middle of a mountain, but not when it means leaving behind a flock of sheep that are likely to run around and start scattering because they don't have a shepherd.

Does this sound like a familiar story in our every day lives, we don't turn aside and don't interact with God because we are too busy doing something else. In Moses' case it was work, but in a lot of cases now, it is usually something much less interesting like texting, talking, with friends, facebooking, on youtube and so on and so forth. :)

Why do we make God wait all the time for us, but expect instant answers and help when we ask for it?!

Pretty awesome friends we are sometimes!

Anyways, the easiest way that I can describe what it is like to hear God's voice is that sometimes it feels like a thought or voice, smaller than our own, that speaks gently to our hearts and minds.

So, if by nature, we hear something amongst the chaos of our daily thoughts that is smaller than our own voice, or the voices that speak to us, then it is a good way to recognize it when it speaks.

Imagine you are at a race track with your friend when a lot of cars are zooming by, and you hear someone faintly calling your name beside you. They may be yelling as loud as they can, but they are barely audible above the noise of the cars--but you can still hear them.

1 Kings 19:11-13
The LORD said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the LORD, for the LORD is about to pass by.”Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the LORD, but the LORD was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the LORD was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the LORD was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave.

So the next time you feel a quiet voice, a subtle inspiration or any other feeling, thought or inclination that spurns you to do something positive without rational explanation, turn aside and see what happens!

Not sinning is as easy as, not sinning!

I am totally serious, not sinning is easy!

Yes, I know that fighting sin always feel complicated, but not sinning is just as easy as, well... not sinning!

Before you look at me like a karate chop hitting a tomato, let me explain.

James 1:13-15
When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.

This scripture is great because it highlights the fact that if we don't desire sin, then not sinning is super easy.

But, what if we want to sin?

...huh

Well, I guess that makes things more complicated then.

Or does it?

So You Were Forced To Sin At Gunpoint, Yeah Right!

When is the last time someone held a gun to your head and told you to do something sinful?

All the time I am sure.


Riiight...:)

The reality about sin, is that nobody sins unless they want to.

No one ever forces us to do something sinful, we choose to do it.

I Know It Is Bad For Me, But I *Really* Want To!

For the sins we just can't seem to let go of, it is important to understand that there is something about them we enjoy or we wouldn't be doing them in the first place.

For example:

People won't put their hand on a red hot stove because they know it will hurt.

But some people eat junk food, not knowing whats going to happen to there body.

 Sin Doesn't Run On Batteries, It Runs On You

The vast majority of sins are willingly chosen, just like we choose what to eat, what movies to watch, what clothes to wear, etc...

The Most Powerful Thing In The World Is Your Free Will

God gave us a free will; total freedom of choice.

This means that he gave us the freedom to make decisions based on what we want or don't want. You may ask why doesn't God stop us right before we make this act of sin? Well, I don't think anybody really does, or at least I don't.

The power of our choices is incredibly strong, and, for better or worse, it determines a huge portion of our life.

For example, we can choose to do amazing things, like:

Fulfill God's word by resisting sin and overcoming the temptations of the world

1 John 5:3-4
In fact, this is love for God: to keep his commands. And his commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the world

Welcome God's blessings into our lives when we choose to seek him

Jeremiah 29:11-13
"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart

Be recognized as Jesus' disciples

John 13:34-35
A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.

However, in other examples, we can choose to do horribly negative things, like:

Make Jesus' sacrifice powerless to change our lives

2 Peter 2:20
If they have escaped the corruption of the world by knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and are again entangled in it and overcome, they are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning

Lose our salvation and nail Jesus back on the cross

Hebrews 6:4-6
It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit, who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age, if they fall away, to be brought back to repentance, because to their loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace

As you can see, our will and choices are extremely powerful, so it is no mystery why it is important to guard them at all times and guide them towards righteous decisions.

If the powers of darkness could nail Jesus back up on the cross, they would have done it a long time ago, but they can't, they need us to do it for them

The Power To Choose, In Everything

Don't ever feel like sin is something you can't overcome, because, as you can see, your choices are capable of doing anything.

And besides, not sinning is just as easy as choosing not to sin, that is all there is to it!

God gave us freedom through Jesus, and we need to own that by honoring him with our hearts and minds, not just our words or ability to sit still for a few hours on a Sunday.

  

Matthew 22:27
Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind."

Now I am not saying stay clean of all sins and bad things out there, and I am most definitely not saying sinning is necessarily a good thing, but honestly if I wouldn't have made some of the mistakes I made this week, or last week, or years ago I wouldn't be the person I am. Like everyone says, "Learn from your mistakes and don't do it again!"  When you have that gut feeling like you know its wrong, just don't do it in the long run you'll be so happy you did the right thing. I swear the "gut feeling" is a gift God has given each and everyone of us. I mean ahhh, it saves me often.The "gut feeling" is usually God's voice, it is for me. It tells me no to what I need to not be doing, and yes to things I should be doing.

If you have sinned...I do, on a daily basis..I am not kidding. It could be bad, or just one little wrong move with my brother. It could be anything. But, I encourage you to repent(say your sorry to Jesus and any people you hurt.) And get up and stand strong. Life always gets better.

God Bless,

                                                   An encouraging verse to me this week:

Matthew 7:7

     Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.

Doubt

Definition of doubt:

1. To lack confidence in
2. To consider unlikely
3. To be uncertain

Everyone doubts. Its normal. I know lots of times I question my faith and who I am and wonder if its a sin to be doubting. It's an important subject, and one that requires us to look through the biblical framework rather than our emotions. One of the most important questions to consider when it comes to doubt is, "Is doubt a sin?" Let's see how God's Word answers that question.

We get a clue about God's attitude toward doubt when we take a look at how He responded to doubters during His time on earth. Pay close attention to these passages. Notice how Jesus consistently responds to followers struggling with doubt.

"Come," he said.
Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, cried out, "Lord, save me!"
Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. "You of little faith," he said, "why did you doubt?" (Matt. 14:28–31).

God didn't let Peter drown simply because he had a moment of doubt. He reached down, pulled him up, and then called him out for his weak faith. Jesus didn't specifically label Peter's doubt a sin here, so does that mean that doubting is okay with Him? Let's keep reading.

In Luke 24:36–39, Jesus appeared to His disciples after the Resurrection. Were they wrestling with doubt? You betcha! Even though He had promised them He would rise again, they doubted the promise and had a hard time accepting the truth even when He stood right in front of them. Check it out:

While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, "Peace be with you."
They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost. He said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have."

He didn't yell at them for doubting. He didn't stomp out and take His resurrected body elsewhere.Instead He took the time to help them see why they could be confident that He was who He said He was and that He had done exactly what He promised to do.Check out verses 40–43:

When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet. And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, "Do you have anything here to eat?" They gave him a piece of broiled fish, and he took it and ate it in their presence.

Do you think Jesus was really hungry? I doubt it. But He knew what was in the hearts of His followers. He knew they were doubting that He was really there in the flesh, so He ate some fish. He tenderly took the time to give them reasons to doubt Him less and trust Him more.
 I think it's important to note that Jesus didn't equate doubt with sin. That doesn't mean He likes it. He called the doubters out in theses passages. But if you are having feelings of doubt, you can feel safe running toward Jesus for answers instead of away from Him because you think He will be disappointed in you.
And you don't have to have all of your doubts eliminated before God can use you. In Matthew28:16–19, Jesus is with 11 of His disciples. Verse 17 tells us that some of them doubted that He was the real deal. He certainly knew their doubt, and yet He proceeded to give them the Great Commission. If we look at how Jesus responded to doubt, we see that He never says, "Resolve your doubts before you do what I'm asking you to do." Instead He gives the disciples permission to take their doubts with them as they go. He makes us the same offer.
Here's one more passage that helps us understand God's attitude toward doubt.

Jude1:22 simply says, "Be merciful to those who doubt."

How does the Bible command us to respond to doubt in other's hearts? With mercy. We can be confident that God will respond to our doubt in the same way.
If you're a doubter, I hope you are encouraged that God's shoulders are big enough to handle your questions. Having doubts is not a sin. But allowing those doubts to hinder your walk with Christ isn't the answer. And using doubts as an excuse to break God's commands is never okay.
What has God taught you today that makes you want to trust Him more and doubt Him less?

Humbled

Hey all :)

Have you ever thought about the fact that our God is, above all . . . humble? In Matthew 11:29, Jesus says, "Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls."
I don't know about you, but I used to think Jesus was humble just to be an example to us; I didn't really think of Him as humble at His core. But He really is!

Can you think of some of the ways His humility was demonstrated? Here are a few:

1. His incarnation.
2. He didn't seek praise from men.
3. He was totally dependent on His Father.
4. He served others, even washing their feet!
5. His humble entry into Jerusalem.
6. His suffering.
7. His death.

Philippians 2:5–11 shows us His humility: 

Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

How can you and I become more humble? Certainly not by trying harder! So . . . do you think that God is humble? Why or why not? And in your own life, do you pursue humility, or do you view it as "beneath you"?  


God Bless,
~Jenna
