Well, as I said, I have recentally gotten back from camp! It was a blast, and I can't wait to go back next year! I have been thinking a lot lateally about God, and how amazing he is. How...generous he is! I have also been thinking about, how luckey I am to have been born into a Christian home, where everyone else is a Christian. You have people constantally challanging you in your walk with God! And then I think about some people that know nothing about God...haven't ever heard about him, or anything like that. I can't even begin to understand what it's like! I can't believe how much God has blessed me!
And then there is the whole thing about friends! I guess what got me thinking about this, is reading Lily's blog, but really! It's so great to have friends that believe the same things that you do!
There is a lot of really cool verses in the Bible! Here are a few that I like:
Luke 21:19- By standing firm you will gain life.
1 John 2:6- Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did.
Luke 1:37- For with God, nothing shall be impossible.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-18- Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6- Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Proverbs 16:3- Commit to the Lord whatever you do and your plans will succeed.
1 Timothy 4:12- Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith, and in purity.
Mathew 19:26- Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
Romans 10:13- for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."
I could go on for a long time...but I won't because you would probably just stop reading. Anyway, I just want to thank God for all he has given me! And for giving me Christian friends...it's so wonderful!
Thanks for reading!
