Fall Life in Colorado Springs

I went with a few friends to watch the Air Force- Navy game the first weekend in October. We had a wonderful time.

Indescribable...

Just watch the video and bask in the unconditional Love of the Heavenly Father! He is so worthy to be praised!

Here are a few thoughts to think on...
1. Let's be vulnerable to God.
2. "I choose Joy. I may not feel it, but God has appropriated it and I choose it!"
3. God's agenda is Always based on Truth.
4. The Lifeblood of integrity is becoming the same person no matter where we are- no matter who's around.
5. God knows my details.

~ Awesome God ~
When He rolls up His sleeves
He ain't just putting on the ritz
(Our God is an awesome God)
There's thunder in His footsteps
And lightning in His fists
(Our God is an awesome God)
And the Lord wasn't joking when He kicked 'em out of Eden
It wasn't for no reason that He she'd His blood
His return is very close and so you better be believing that
Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God
And when the sky was starless
In the void of the night
(Our God is an awesome God)
He spoke into the darkness
And created the light
(Our God is an awesome God)
Judgement and wrath He poured out on Sodom
Mercy and grace He gave us at the cross
I hope that we have not too quickly forgotten that
Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God (Our God is an awesome God)
He reigns from heaven above (He reigns from heaven above)
With wisdom, power, and love (With wisdom, power, and love)
Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God

Now that you have watched the video and read "Awesome God" lyrics please take into consideration these wonderful "things to think on". God loves us dearly and we need to be reminded of that every once in a while.

Unconditional Love

(I actually wrote this about a week or so ago, but due to no internet access I am posting it now.)

Do you ever have those weeks where God simply want's to show you how Awesome He is? Well, that has been this week for me. First, I am going to say that it has been a very long week, but God has blessed me with a wonderful peace that I know can only come from Him. He has been constantly reminding me that He is the one in control of everything. He has also humbled me and shown me exactly how small I am. HAHA!

He has also simply broken my heart and made me fall even more in love with Him! I am to the point of tears because He has shown me exactly how much He love's me and how much He is glad that I am His child. Abba, He is so Worthy to be praise!

Here are just a few names, Titles, And Attributes of the Father, Son, And Holy Spirit! He is Ever-present, God of Israel, Full of Grace and Truth, Ancient of Days, Bread of Life, El Shaddai- All Sufficent, El Elyon- most High God, Elohim- God who sees, and Everlasting Father!

Isn't God good? Isn't it wonderful that we can Worship Him freely? Isn't it a blessing that He love's us unconditionally and that He knows us by name?

Psalm 31:5
"Into your hand I commit my spirit; You have redeemed me, O LORD God of truth."

Psalm 27:4
"One thing I have desired of the LORD, That will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life. To behold the beauty of the LORD And to inquire in His temple."

Hear O'Israel!
The Lord our God, the Lord is one.
Love the Lord your God with all of your heart and
with all of your soul and with all of your strength.
Love your neighbor as yourself.
