Late Nights with the Lord


I really wanted a cool late night devotional tonight to read before I went to bed. So, first way to look search Google :). I searched and something happened that I had never seen nor ever thought would happen. This was my result...

Information No results found for "late nights with the lord".

How sad as I'm sitting here thinking to myself, so I decided to put this on the internet so that at least there will be something. :D I am laying here up because I have drank a wonderful sundrop slushie that contains caffeine and in these moments I wonder what God is trying to say to us. I have always dealt with having a consistent time with God each day. People always say, "Consistency is the Key" but that is the most difficult thing for me to master. So the majority of times when I spend long periods of time with God are on nights like these. I have good and bad days but God always makes either better. I encourage you then when you have times like I do. When you get your second wind, when you have that extra burst of energy, when you become restless, find your peace in God. Find your rest, find your comfort, find your companionship, but also find your majestic Lord who desires to speak to you. This is definitely not the really cool devotional I was hoping to find but, it's a simple reminder to me that we should not be so consumed in our wants and needs that we let God slip from our memory.

"Stay with God!
Take heart. Don't quit.
I'll say it again:
Stay with
God." Ps. 27:14

"God makes his people strong.
God gives his people peace." Ps. 29:11

Set Me On Fire




I am so tired of compromising
I am so tired of lukewarm living
So here I am with arms wide open
Lord here I am, my heart wide open


Set me on fire
Set me on fire
Set me on fire
Set me on fire


Take this heart of mine
Place your love inside
I want to go against the grain
I want to go against the grain

Long Time, No Posting …

Hey Everyone, Seriously I haven’t posted in a month and a half. During that time I have attended my senior prom and had so much fun, I have graduated from high school, been in Tennessee for two weeks of this summer and I have begun working. So far summer has been great, I’m finally getting to the point where I don’t feel like there is a test to study for every week. On the last day of school, I completely missed a step at church and sprained my ankle in the last two min. of my very last day of school. I was limping for a few days but after that I was back to normal after that. Also when we were in Tennessee I got to help with my Aunt’s Pre-School VBS class and those kids were so cute ! Right now we are in the car again for a day or two in Tennessee. I couldn’t believe it but this car ride I took a 3 HOUR NAP!!! I couldn’t believe it, that never happens. We are arriving at our hotel so I will be posting soon and more often. By the way here’s a picture to see how much fun a mac can be on a road trip …

"For great is the Lord and most worthy of praise;He is to be feared above all gods."~Psalm 96:4


As my daily devotions in the evening, I have been working through the second half of Louie Giglio's book 30 Day Worship Journey. Each day you are given a psalm and a characteristic of God. Day 4's psalm was Psalm 96, and the word was Supreme. Here is my journal entry for that day...


Nacho Supreme,
Taco Supreme,
Crunchwrap Supreme,
... etc.

The best, the ultimate with sour cream on top. Towering over all the other menu items. Ruler of the Taco Bell Kingdom (even the chihuahua).

Actual Definition:

su⋅preme

[suh-preem, soo-] –adjective

1. highest in rank or authority; paramount; sovereign; chief.
2. of the highest quality, degree, character, importance, etc.: supreme courage.
3. greatest, utmost, or extreme: supreme disgust.
4. last or final; ultimate.

There is no way that it is right for me to compare God to Taco Bell, but it helps me better define the word supreme. God is truly the best, the ultimate even without the sour cream. God towers over any other god-wanna-be's. God is truly the ruler of the things you have created. God is a Supreme God (in more ways than one :D ). I am the one that's on the value menu. I'm the one that is not of utmost importance. I am that chihuahua, but I am saying, "¡Amo a Dios, yo amo sus atributos, yo amo todo que él es! ".

Clearly Cloudy...

"it’s so clearly cloudy, in the land of the Grey." ~ Ginny Owens

In this world it is so clear that we are just a big group of messed up people.
"But God's angry displeasure erupts as acts of human mistrust and wrongdoing and lying accumulate, as people try to put a shroud over truth. But the basic reality of God is plain enough. Open your eyes and there it is! By taking a long and thoughtful look at what God has created, people have always been able to see what their eyes as such can't see: eternal power, for instance, and the mystery of his divine being. So nobody has a good excuse." - Romans 1:18-20
God is plain enough. It is evident that we are lost. We are wading through the murky waters trying to detect the line between the truth and a lie.
"What’s wrong? What’s right? Absolute confusion.
What’s black? What’s white? Everything looks hazy.
Such scenarios bring me to only one conclusion-
Maybe we’ve all gone crazy."~Ginny Owens



We must trust God to lead us out of these foggy times, through the clouds of confusion. And look to what he has made clear, his attributes, his power and his nature. One very smart young lady told me once, "Don't tell God how big your storm is, Tell the storm how big your God is." God has made it plain to us. We have no excuse. He is clearly seen through the storm. Look past the storm. Look past the fog. Look past the clouds. Because it's so clearly cloudy in the land of the gray.

Ok I'm really doing it this time...


Ok, i'm going to actually try to post on my blog, despite how infrequent it may be, i'm going to try to keep it updated. So as an update, i was officially accepted into the music program at North Greenville University. As a senior, school is getting pretty crazy. There's AP Exams, Jr/Sr (which I still don't have a dress for yet), school aution, college housing form, scholarship applications, and stuff for this summer. But Senior year has been great so far, i'm really excited about college and what God holds for the rest of the time i have here at home.

However, i can't help but laugh at myself when i think back on all the crazy freak accidents that have happened in about the last month. i'll start at the very beginning (which is a very good place to start :D ). First, my mother and i ran into an armed robber in our driveway, then a drunk guy showed up at our front door at 2am. One morning we had a fender bender in our front yard and then i got into my first class at school and we were on lockdown. Then there's this past week, First, my cake spit on me. Then i tried to get my phone at the park and the invisible mud hole swallowed my flip-flop (and tried to get my foot, but i didn't let it) and then i tried to wash off all the mud and i stuck my hand in spider webs and the leak in the hose spewed water in my face ! That was on Sunday, then on Tuesday, i cut my tounge on a blowpop and on Wed. i got hit in the head by a paper airplane i made. Then there's the all time best TODAY !!! i was at church leaning up against the wall and hugged someone and bam the strap on my easter dress i got yesterday pops off. Thankfully i found some safty pins in the children's class and had some wonderful people help pin me back up. That's all the freak accidents so far. I just can't help but laugh at myself !!!!!

i'm really thankful for the way God has been provideing and guideing this whole year. And how he has been adding little crazy things in my life to give me a good laugh !
