Verse

"All have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God." Romans 3:23

The Love of our Father

I believe this is my first post on this blog! :D First, thank you Megan for this blog and sharing what you have been learning. Also, writing out Bible verses of encouragement that have been a blessing to me to read, and I know other readers have been blessed by them as well. God bless you, dear sister!

Recently, God has shown me the incredible love He has for me. He loves me for who I am; not how other people view me, but how God views me. His love reaches to the skies! In Psalm 139, it mentions how we are "fearfully and wonderfully made". He so enjoys spending time talking with His children. He desires us to stop what we are doing in the day--sit at His feet. Do you not believe that He cries with us when we are upset? Do you not think that spending time with the Creator of the Universe is a waste of  your time? Oh, I pray that we will have such a deep love for our Savior, our Abba Daddy, that it will spill over on others. Those who know Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior are His princesses and daughters of the King. If you do not know Jesus in this way, and are keeping your eyes, that God made in the first place, away from the ultimate Truth, come to Him today. He is calling you, His beautiful daughter. 

Love in Christ Alone,

Long time, No posting!

I'm terribly Sorry about the no-posting!!!

Here is a bible verse for today:

You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you.

Isaiah 26:3

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Wow! christmas is here!!!

Wow! Christmas really is here! But doesn't it seem like you just don't have the right heart for christmas time all the time? I mean, I truly don't have a nice, helpful, loving, giving heart, all throughout the year, And I know other people don't either. For example, "Will you please let me go to the movies with you?" sally asks Jill and Jodi. "No, not to day" says Jill. "Oh, come one Jill, It's christmas!"

I mean why not say any ordinary day "Oh, come on it's October 14th!"  I mean truly, why can't everyone have a giving heart all year, not just around christmas or holidays! 

Well, that's the heart part, but what about the getting and getting part? All Christians know that christmas is about giving, not getting. Even little kids are getting the point about Giving at Christmas and the Christmas heart. For instance, I teach small little classes for my younger sister every monday, and this week I told her to write a poem that is about Christmas or Winter. This is what she wrote:

All about Christmas

By: Mallory Madison 

Age: 8

Christmas is fun, 

Christmas is fine, 

But do you know what Christmas is all about?

Christmas is about God's son, Jesus.

Jesus is the Christ,

God Sent his son to die for us,

It's not about the presents, it's about the Heart.

Isn't that just adorable? My sister is so cute!

But, doesn't that just tell you that even little kids know about the heart of christmas!

Even older kids & adults, especially Older kids & adults should set an example for the younger ones that they should have the "Christmas Heart" all year 'round. 

let me know YOUR thoughts on the christmas heart,

Megan
