The Fruit Of The Faith
“I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me, you can do nothing.” -John 15:5 NKJV
By saying that believers live in Him and He lives in them, Jesus is making it clear that Christianity is not something we put on externally. We don’t put it on like clothes. We don’t adopt it as a new lifestyle that focuses on our...

To My Future Husband:

I think I found you and that’s the most amazing and terrifying thing I’ve ever experienced.
Absolute Surrender
“Not my will, but Yours, be done.” Luke 22:42
And when you do yield yourself in absolute surrender, let it be in the faith that God does now accept of it. That is the great point, and that is what we so often miss—that believers should be occupied with God. We want to get help, every one of us, so that in our daily life God shall be clearer to us, God shall have the right...

tomyfuturespouse:
Don’t ever feel you have to lie to cover a mistake. The most perfect person can also be the most imperfect person. I’ll love you for you.
Word. Just be honest and don’t try to hide anything.
Never trust your tongue when your heart is bitter.

Too many times I hear people say that they are a Christian, when they do not bear the fruit of the Spirit. I ask why they claim Christianity and they say;
a) “I’m a good person and I treat others the way I want to be treated. Jesus taught that.”
b) “I go to church/mass.” or
c) something…

49ers and Raiders End Preseason Rivalry →
“Two men were seriously injured in the violence during and after the game on Saturday night. One victim was shot several times, while the other was beaten unconscious.”
This is why I always have second thoughts on attending any game where the Chargers are playing some of our biggest rivals (especially the Raiders). At least there were no shots fired at the Chargers/49ers game my...

Seriously. Ron Paul for President FOR LIFE! Or at least 8 years.
Unlike the crazies Perry and Bachmann, Paul doesn’t need to say, “I’m a Christian!!” every 5 seconds to make the “Christians in America” vote for them. Don’t be brainwashed, guys. Look at the backgrounds of Perry and Bachmann. Pay close attention. And do more research on Ron Paul. If this...
How is it that I’m the Christian Liberal and my brother is the Atheist hardcore Conservative? Haha. Weird!

Sometimes I scare myself with how fast I can just turn off my emotions like a switch and feel nothing.
That can’t be normal.
Looking through my timeline from some of you and it makes me super happy to know people are FINALLY paying attention to Ron Paul. I’ve been following this man for quite a few years now and to see both Republicans and Democrats taking note that this guy is the more real deal, makes me happy :)
