Grateful for Renee Young

I decided to join Renee link up this month about being grateful for that special person in our life and I've decided that this post will be all about her since I'm truly grateful for her and seriously she has inspired me in so many ways. I met Renee my sophomore year of high school because she was my teacher. Everyone that knows me would agree that I am a shy person so I was really shy around Renee when I first met her. When I was in her class she was so kind to me. She loved taking pictures with me and loved me so much. At some point, I decided not to act shy around her anymore but to actually go to her class early in the morning to just hang out with her and to pray with her before we start the day. Praying with her every morning and taking about Jesus really brought us even more closer and I was so happy because I had gained a new sister in Christ through her. As one of her students, she was always patient with us and she did everything that she could to make us successful. I love laughing with her and having fun because when we're having fun and talking about Christ it's like we're friends. I think that it was God purpose for us to meet and I'm really thankful for her. Thank you Renee for loving me all these years and for believing in me. You've made a huge impact in my life and I love you so much. Continue to grow in Christ and I know that you'll teach Ezra and Piper to follow Christ and to love him. I know it makes you happy being a mom and it makes me happy that you're enjoying being a parent. I love you and thank you for your friendship.
    your sister in Christ

    Aww Rebecca! You just warmed my heart so much. Thank you so much for these kind words. I am not sure I deserve so much, but thank you so much. You are a special woman to me and will forever hold a special place in my heart. Really hope we can see each other in the near future, maybe we will when I visit Starkville. Still not sure when that will be. I miss you lots and lots.

    Love you sis, and keep seeking the Lord above all else. Nothing matters more than Christ, not even your grades.

What Does It Mean To Be a Christ Follower

To start of, I grew up in a Christian home and was raised by my parents who taught me to always put god first in my life because without him my life is meaningless. When I was a child my mom bought me a kids Bible with pictures on the other side of the page so that I can imagine what was happening through the pictures. The day that I truly understood what Christ did for me on the cross was the day that I truly surrendered my life to Christ because I wanted to be a part of his family and I wanted to live for him until the day that he calls me home. Being a Christ follower taught me to always put god first in my life no matter what because He's the only one who can save me and make all my problems go away. After I had finished my freshmen year of high school, I decided that I wanted to get baptized. Getting baptized was my decision because when my pastor announced it to the church I decided that I wanted to sign up to get baptized. Before getting baptized, my pastor approached me and

What If Your Blessings Come Through Tears

Hi sweet people:) As you all may already know I am a college student at Mississippi State University so I haven't had the time to blog but today I am so glad that I do  because I want to share with you guys today what God has been doing in my life lately. As you may see the title for this post is called, "What if Your Blessing Comes Through Tears" and I got this title from one of my favorite songs that I like to listen to. In this life that we're living we tend to go through some hard times that we tend to question God love towards us his own children. Some of the questions that we tend to ask him is, "why can't you may all of the pain go away"? "Why are you letting me suffer like this if you truly love me"? These questions are one of the most hardest things that we want God to answer but I know that if something happens it's because God wants to show us something to open our eyes clearly or he just wants to test our faith towards him.

A Christmas Post

Don't Forget Jesus Christmas is a special time To reflect on Jesus Christ, The wonder of His lowly birth Brings meaning to our lives There really is no other reason, We celebrate this day, The birth of God's precious son And the life, He willingly gave But so much seems to distract us In the busyness of our lives, We lose our focus in all the happenings, Not knowing, we leave out Christ We lose sight of the true meaning As we endlessly rush about, Trying to find that perfect gift, Seems to cloud our Saviour out We need to stop and reflect awhile, Remembering our precious Lord, His birth, His life and sacrifice And all that He stands for For though the world may celebrate, It seems, though, for other reasons, Let's keep in mind that Jesus Christ Is the true meaning of the season.
