YOLO! ;)

I'm realizing that if you want to live your life to the fullest, you should do it.
That ancient oak tree you've wanted to climb for years? Climb it.
If it's pouring rain outside and you feel this foreign, care-free urge to go dance in it? Go, bust-a-move!
(Oh, and drag someone else along if they feel it too!)
If you want to smile when your walking in the sunshine on a beautiful day when the breeze is blowing through your hair....go ahead. The people who see you will either smile too, because it's contagious, or will think you're crazy. But life is too short to be normal, right?
Wear those new shoes you bought, no matter how badly they match your outfit.
Try something new.
Or, get the same old thing you order every time you go to the ice cream shoppe!
Pamper yourself sometimes.
Better yet, pamper others too!
When you're tempted to do something that will benefit someone else, give in. You'll be glad you did.
Watch the clouds roll by. Flop in the grass and find shapes and animals if it suits your fancy!
Laugh. Life is too short not to.
Dance like nobody is watching...
...Even if they are.
(Lets admit it, everyone wants the inner confidence and freedom to do that!)
Love God uncontrollably and worship without holding back. Isn't He the one you want the most, anyways?
(You're the one He wants the most!)
Rent a movie you've wanted to see for a long time.
Oh, and invite that person who needs a friend over to watch it with you, too!
(A movie isn't a movie without popcorn! Preferably white chocolate peanut butter popcorn..mmm..)
Tell a random person that Jesus loves them! Because he does.
Dare to hope for something you've wanted. God fulfills our wildest dreams!
(I went to Hawaii!! C'mon people, without Jesus I never would have had that chance.)
Start a fund to go on a fun road trip with your friends!!
Toss a nickel in a wishing well or a fountain.
(Knowing that ultimately your wish is a request to Jesus ^.^)
Walk around barefoot and get your feet dirty.
(Ladies, don't forget to try a new nail polish color first! ;)
Go on, watch an old old Disney movie you LOVED as a kid.
Don't be afraid to have a crush on somebody.
Just know who you should ultimately be falling hopelessly in love with;
Jesus<3 (who relentlessly loves and romances us by the minute!)
Write someone a letter, and send it; the old fashion way!
Sing your heart out in the shower.
(Do you believe you can fly?)
Start an online blog. Why not?
Pick a flower and put it in your hair.
Pick another one and put it in someone else's hair!
Listen to your new favorite song;
Listen to it a couple more times!
Relax on your porch swing and read a good book.
(Lemonade, anyone?)
Sing karaoke at your friends house.
Tip your waiter/waitress a little extra, especially if they seemed like today wasn't exactly their day.
Tell a corny joke, and laugh at it!
Use a corny pick-up line on someone!
Build a sandcastle.
Make a snow angel!
Start a snowball war.
Build a forte in your living room with couch cushions and pillows!
Oh, and invite a kid to do it with you. It will make their day.
Complement a stranger!
Take the time to forget your to-do list and fully enjoy the moment you're in.
Take a chance!
Make a change.
You only live once. Will you live to the fullest?

Try, atleast once today, to enjoy the moment, or make that moment enjoyable for you or someone else.
Don't forget to smile.
You're smile is beautiful;
<3

The Great Search

This is my generation
The final generation
We are screaming;
searching for;
in desperate need of
Love
We'll look for it
In parents;
In boyfriends;
In drugs;
In drinking;
In bars,
and fast cars,
 and "I don't care if we go to far"s
In getting laid,
and getting paid;
In finding a laugh,
and finding "your other half"
In "everything is permissible"..
What they forget is the last part of Paul's quote:
"Everything may be permissible, but not everything is beneficial"
Love is a feeling
Love is infatuation
Love is...
Sex?
It must be so
If so many broken, young women
Give sex
to get love-
Temporary love-
Fake love-
What is love?!?!
1 John 4:16 reveals
God is love
Without God, there is no love
"Love is all we need"
Yes!
But...
If God is clearly love..
Isn't God all we need..?
1 John 4:19 says why we even have the ability 
(and the obligation)
to love.
It says:
"We love because He first loved us"

This is my generation
Searching for; Screaming for; In desperate need of;
(what they call)...love?
Or are they unknowingly searching for..
God?

My Jesus!

My Lord and Savior
My best friend and boyfriend
My forgiver and restorer
My joy and hope for change
My heart and light in the dark
My leader and example of good
My servant and master
My lover and soul comforter
My shoulder to cry and lean on
My strong tower and refuge
My dawn and my dusk
My early morning sun and midnight moon
My reason to move forward
My only source of compassion in me and for me
My debt-payer and slate-cleaner
My warmth when its freezing and cool breeze when its scorching
My Prince charming and perfect friend
My too-good-to-be-true dream
My well-spring of eternal and abundant life
My healing and my truth
My provider and protection
My strong one who is always dependable
My love who knows me more than I do,
will always love me more than anyone can,
and see my potential and beauty more than I ever will~

My Jesus <3

First Post:D

Alriiiight. Let's get this party started! hahaha..

Hopefully Im going to be posting atleast once a week talking about different things(All of them having to do with my experience with God, or what I am learning recently, or what I need to learn....you get the point..). I hope that by me opening up to you, and sharing things from every aspect of my "Journey to the heart of the Son", that it inspires you, strengthens you, and encourages you. Ultimately, of course, pointing you to the one I am following; Jesus!
