Strongest
The strongest people are not the ones with all the fame money and power. They are the ones who can say that they are week, the ones that know that at there strongest there is one stronger, who's weakness is stronger than there strength.
They are those who's words are much, much stronger than there fists. Those who make it through rough times, understated and alone, yet not alone. Those who pick themselves up and go on. The strongest are those who help the weakest.
Strong, what comes to mind? Our world today would say, has big muscles and can lift a car or something like that. Not me, for I know what strong really means.
It means, a man leading and taking care of his family, but knows he cant do it alone. A mother who trusts in Him in the depths of mourning over children seen and unseen. A child suffering from illness yet is still full of smiles that bring joy to all who witness them. A young man in school standing up for his faith even when he's told to keep from speaking.
They can not be stoped, they will not be silenced, in the depths of fear they turn to there Savior, they cry out to the One who hears them, the One who takes care of there every need.
Most of all its the One who went through the pain, the suffering, the ridicule, and death to bring life and forgiveness to all who will take it.
I don't know about you but I want to be one of the strongest.

I am the character
I really love writing. But in the story of my life, I am the character, He is the author. He has all ready written my story, who I'll marry, what children I will have, works of faith I will do, what I will do when I mess up my part. He is the vine, I am the branches, He is the potter, I am the clay. I can do nothing except through Him. All I am, all I have is in Him. My story will have a happy ending, because I'll be with Him!

My Jesus, My Lord
I came across this the other day, I wrote it awhile ago and decided to finish it. Hope you like it.
My Jesus, my Lord You are my sword.
You always guide me through the night, and wake me with the morning light.
You always love me like there's no tomorrow, even in my deepest sorrow.
Even when I treat You wrong, still You sing Your greatest song.
The one that gets me through it all, while You stand so mighty so tall.
My life belongs to You because You gave your life to me, even though I did not see.
The glory of Your love shines bright, my heart is filled with great delight.
Though this world will drag me down, still I know I'm heaven bound.
For Your love for me is far beyond, it is an ocean not a pond.
And I shall tell the world of You, for Your love has seen me through.
So through my life time I will shout! For You have loved me inside and out.
And though I may not understand, why I must walk this weary land.
I believe Your holding me, You've payed my debt and my fee.
You suffered a long and painful death to bring me new life, and so I must tell the world of Your great might.
When You spoke a lion roared, My Jesus my Lord.

Love
~Love is patient, love is kind. I does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. I always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. 1 Corinthians 4-8.
We have all heard this verse, do we really try to carry it out? Jesus said "love your enemy's" so that means that we are to be all these things to them, witch I'm sure not everyone is. Nobody is 24-7. I cant even be this way with my family all the time.
Think how it would be if we could love like this, if we could just forget things that have been done to us by others, not be rude, not be self-seeking. Wouldn't that be awesome? I think it would be. The thing is we are supposed to change the world that way. Think if each one of us where like this with just one person, and they with just one. We could shake this world! We could set it on fire with love. And no I don't mean like the hippie's did. But like Jesus taught us to.
Love can not fall in and out like the movies say. "Oh our love just is not there anymore". Love is a choice, yes there is a such thing as attraction but it does not become love until you make that choice to love no matter what, when your angry at each other, when some one is sick, when they let you down. We as people are going to let each other down, we are human for goodness sake, but the true love comes out when that happens, when we love some one even though they let us down, we are really loving, God loves us even when we sin.
Isn't that amazing? I can never ever love like that. Love. Lets try to love like this in the coming week. I know I'm going to try.
Well I hope this can challenge you to love as He loved.

Because of you
Because of you, I live. Because of you, I breath. Because of you, I hope. Because of you, I have purpose. Because of you, I died to me. Because of you, I face each day. Because of you, I can go through the pain. Because of you, I will remain pure. Because of you, I can say death has no grip. Because of you, I sing. Because of you, I will fight. Because of you, I will stand. Because of you, I will win. Because of you, I have been washed clean. Because of you, I have been reborn. Because of you, I will shout to all that Jesus saves! Because of you. ~Out Of His Great Love~ Rachel
