| This weekend I went to Detroit, for Aquire the Fire's-Battle Cry. It was AWESOME!!!!!! If you don't know what Battle cry is, it's this thing for Christians. We went to Ford Field, the tigers stadium, and, well just imagine this, the entire stadium and field is filled with a ton of Christains worshiping God, pretty awesome.There were concerts and excellent speakers and worship leaders. It was really cool because my church has a lot of what you would call rough kids, like 75% of the kids in our y.g. are from foster homes, and others have divorced parents, and a ton of crazy stuff that you think you just hear about, but it's real at our church, anyway, like, a lot of people have labled them "unreachable" but they were SO reached. Everyone really started thinking when the speaker started talking. I'm normally afraid to go up to altercalls when they apply to me, but there it was like, how could this NOT apply to EVERYONE so I wasn't as worried as I sometimes am. I'm quitting my xanga in 15 days (my b-day) because battlecry has this Christain based, xanga/myspace program that is specificallly designed for accountability with other Christains. I'm not old enough yet, that's why i have to wait 15 days to turn 14 and be legal. Anyway, thank you for your time, sorry for only updating every like once a month, and thank you Lietta, 'cuz I truthfully believe you are the only one who reads this.
bye,Sarah | | |
| I'm addicted to apples I think. I've already had like three and I want another one! Anywhoo...that's what I get when I drink polluted water, funky addictions. Today I went running and then played my little brother in a game of b-ball. I was on the verge of winning so he hit me(not really, well, he hit me,but unintentionally)and so we quit and I came in. I'm on spring break starting Monday, yea!
"Many men will drink the rain, and turn and thank the clouds, many men will hear you speak, they will never turn around, I will not forget you are my God my king, with a thankful heart I bring my offering, when my sacrifice is not what you can give but what I alone can give you. A thankful heart I give a thankful prayer I pray, a wild dance I dance before you, a loud song I sing, a huge bell I ring, a life of praise I live before you...."
I have that song stuck in my head, but that's okay, 'cuz I like it
Bye
~Sarah

| One spring day, Farmer Green’s donkey fell into a well. The animal cried loudly as Mr. Green tried to figure out a solution. He finally decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway. It just wasn’t worth it to rescue the donkey.
He recruited his neighbors to help, and together they all grabbed shovels and began to toss dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and wailed louder. After several minutes, however, he quieted down. The neighbors were amazed at how calm the animal had become.
Farmer Green finally looked down the well and was astonished at what he saw. With every shovel of dirt that hit the donkey’s back, the animal was doing something incredible. He would shake the dirt off and take a step up.
As Farmer Green’s neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, the donkey continued to shake it off and step up. It wasn’t long, until the donkey was able to step up over the edge of the well and simply trotted off!
We can’t go through life without having some dirt tossed on us. Every single one of us will experience trials and loneliness. When life tosses dirt in your path, you have a choice: Let it bury you alive, or shake it off and step forward. Try to view your problems as a stepping-stone. If you so choose, you can actually learn from your trials.
Know It!
You can’t escape troubles. But you can become stronger through each one. The next time you’re faced with a problem, go straight to God.
Read It!
2 Corinthians 4:8-9; James 1:1-4; 1 Peter 1:6-7.
Pray It!
Jesus, it’s easy to think, Why me? When I’m faced with a problem. Help me to stop focusing on the why and start looking for the lesson. I want to become stronger through my trials and learn to trust You more because of them.
I found this and I liked it and since I don't post that often due to lack of creativity(or is it time), here's something else for you to look at. I got if from www.briomag.com. Anyway, have a wonderful day. Cheers!
