My Very First Original Analogy :) WORDS 7/20/11

Are Words Really that important and life changing? Do words go on forever?
Katy's Analogy

-          Someone is depressed and feeling down and words are spoken “ you are no good, loser, never amount to anything, you always get it wrong”  that person goes home and takes their life or develops an addiction
-          Someone gets pregnant and it was unplanned and not sure on what to do and words are spoken “your life is over, get rid of it, you will never be able to do it, it is impossible.”  That person goes and gets an abortion and regrets it every day and it damages future relationships.
-          Someone is debating whether or not to do something but isn’t sure and words are spoken “just try it one time and if you don’t like it then you don’t have to do it again.” That person takes that theory through their life with everything or develops a bad addiction.
-          Parents speak to their children from a small age, and keep saying damaging things to them, what happens?  That child grows up not wanting to speak the same things on repeat, but the cycle begins and now they are their parents, or the child is now 40 years old and still trying to heal from their childhood wounds and still hopes for restoration.

These are a few examples that I could come up with that happen.  The best thing to think is that if you were to go into space and throw a ball in space, that ball would keep going and going and going, nothing would stop it.  That is the same concept of how powerful our words are.  You can either speak life or death into someone and it is scary because people don’t realize what their words actually do.  Next time you are getting ready to speak something no matter how big or small, think about it that it will go on and on and on.   KatyRose

7/20/11 Updated Blog

7/20/11

                I decided to update my blog with what has all been going new in my life.  There have been so many changes and learning experiences (for the better).  My little boy is just over 9months and oh my gosh he is the most amazing blessing of a human being I have ever known.  It is impossible to not be happy or in a good mood when around him.  He is a little bundle of smiles, laughs, joy, etc.  I feel absolutely honored to be his mother and favor from the Lord.  Our family is very excited to be moving soon in the near future, we are looking forward to the experience to meet new people, see new adventures and see the blessings the Lord has for our little tri-pod in the future.  Now the real reason I wrote this blog is because I have grown closer to the Lord and oh my word are my eyes opening even more.  I thought I knew a lot back then, nope not even close!!!!!  It is amazing what you can learn from being in a good church, being around spirit led pastors, seeking bible classes, godly podcasts, and reading on your own.  My prayers have changed in how I pray, My views have changed, and I am claiming more and more scriptures over my husband and son and receiving blessings on our family.  To seek the Lord it takes tremendous discipline and obedience, you need to be conscious of what you are doing through the day.  To the shows on television you watch, the music, and who you associate with and how you speak.   The biggest difference in myself is the boldness I am developing when speaking to the Lord and quoting scripture.  When you realize who you are in Christ, we do have authority to speak that way and claim it as it is written in the scripture.  If people realized the real reason why Jesus died and make an effort, wow would this world be different.  But to be honest it takes hard work and there is no rest, and people are too lazy and want everything the fastest and easy way. (and that is what the enemy uses against us)  My best best best advice is to start small in the little things and work your way up.  KatyRose

EACH DAY WE ARE ALIVE..... MAKE IT COUNT!!!

Eachday that we are alive is an absolute blessing from the Lord.  To be able to wake up alive another day is something we need to acknowledge and cherish.  People need to understand that are days are numbered so there is no planning as to how long we have here on earth.  So whenever it is our time we better be prepared because after our time on earth is up, then we go to eternity.  Do you understand that once we are gone, there is no makeup time!!!!  We are judged for our time on earth so that is a pretty scary thought if we aren't living christ like.  Do you understand that there are people in hell right now that are begging the Lord for just one more chance to make it right and accept the Lord as their Saviour but they have been judged already.  Here we are on earth and we have chance after chance to accept the Lord and start living the right way and making a godly difference in someones life.  While we are here MAKE  IT COUNT!!!  What good is it to have the attitude "you only live once, im gonna do it my way, etc"  That is what the devil wants you to think, he wants you to think you have all the time in the world.  It is scary because for some, if they don't get right with God and their time comes, then that is how eternity is judged.  So please if you woke up today and are alive, make today the day to accept the Lord as your Saviour and start living HIS WILL>

Guarantee.....

5/5/2011- Happy National Prayer Day :)!!!!!


                 This blog today is something that has been on my heart for awhile now.  In life we are all about guarantees and it gives us a comfort when we know we have a guarantee on something.  Well once you dive into the bible and attend more and more church services things begin to become clear.  What if there was something I can tell you right now that is 100%true with every single person?  I can say that you have done something today that maybe you know or may not know.  Did you know that you have offended God today?  Did you know that you need to ask for forgiveness right now and tonight?  We all judge ourselves by what everyone else is doing and what is going on in the world.  We look at good and bad people and see how we measure up next to them.  God is not part of this world, he is greater than this world so we aren't judged by world earthly standards.  If you took the Lord's name in vain today, said a bad remark about someone, have bad thoughts toward someone, looked inappropriately at someone, then you have to ask for forgiveness.  Did you know that if you have bad thoughts toward someone, that God considers that murder. If you look inappropriately at someone then that means you have cheated.  These sound crazy to someone who doesn't know this or even take this seriously.  God holds us accountable at these very standards  (ten commandments)  when we stand before God we are judged by this right here.  So if you are going day in and day out of sinning over and over and not stopping to think and try to change, lean on God, pray, ask for forgiveness then now is your chance to do it. How to start doing this:  Be conscious of your thoughts, if a negative bad thought comes to mind, stop it dead in it's track and ask for forgiveness.  In the morning wake up and pray before you even step out the door and at night ask for forgiveness for things you did knowingly and unknowingly.  So since you know there are no doubts you have in fact sinned against God today now is the day to start a new routine and really get a good relationship with Our Saviour.  KatyRose
