honestly, I love flowers. not in the girly way when I would love to recieve flowers on Valentines day or something... don't get me wrong that would be very flattering.
But I realize today That I really like flowers. They are Gods creation, everyone thinks a flower is pretty... if you don't stop readin now or else you won't get the message in this Blog.
in a way, flowers relate to people.
even if you don't believe it, you are beautiful/handsome. but we all are different, in some way or another, looks, Strenghts, Gifts from the Lord.
and flowers, there are many differnt kinds, there are big, small, fat stem, thin stem, look at the daisy (my favorite) and then look at the rose... how different could they be...
but, the flowers serve a purpose, (not getting into that here) even though they are all so different, they all have one thing in common... what they do!
like us, we are all different in many ways, but we all have on purpose, and that is to serve our personal, amazing, wonderful, Lord! We should make our priority to Bring God glory in everything we do. not to please people with our worldly actions, possesions, and looks. We shouldn't care about what people think... I know that is hard, but it can be done! I am working on doing the same thing, it isn't easy. But I realize that with every step I take away from the world, I take a step closer to Christ! :) what an amazing reward!!
Flowers.... people, gorgeous creations of Christ (with no mistakes) all different but We serve the Lord for what ever purpose he has in mind for us!
Trust in him! he is the only one that will not let you down!

Guard your heart
I admit... I haven't been reading my Bible nearly as much as I should be!
But, I have been coming across some Bible Verses that keep standing out to me.
One of them is
"Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life."
Proverbs 4:23
God is telling all of us, not just us females, but everybody to Guard our hearts!
I look around and almost everybody is looking for "Mr/Mrs. Right"
but NOT waiting on Christ. I am not pointing the finger to us all, but to me as well... We all get so wrapped up in Being loved by Others, Humans... and not focusing on what God has planned, and who he has planned for us.
but we also have to realize that Singleness is a GIFT! and time to focus on God and to Serve him, and Worship him with all that you do and say.
the time of Singleness is not a time to "find the right person" or to be the most popular person, with the most friends. it is about getting a better, and closer relationship with Christ! and we shouldn't care about what PEOPLE think of us, we should want to Please Christ, and not please humans... in the end Christ is the one that is our true love!
I also think that People rush into things to quickly. saying "i love you" I realize is a big step! when I say I love you, I am going to mean it!
Love is a word that is always used, for everyday things, like "I love Cheeseburgers" (I don't LOVE cheeseburgers, I REALLY like them) there is a difference!
I could go into many different things.
another Bible verse, talking about the same thing
:And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus"
Philippians 4:6-8
To me this means, that is we trust in God, our hearts will have full "shields" up. We will be focused on him!
I know this isn't easy... but i know all us 'single' people can focus on our relaitonship with God!
well, I hope you all read this with an open heart!
God Bless!
