Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus

VERSE 3:
His word shall not fail you-
He promise;
Believe Him,
and all will be well:
Then go to a world that is dying;
His perfect Salvation to tell.


CHORUS:
Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full into His wonderful face,
and the things of earth will grow strangely dim
in the light of His glory and grace.

My friend and I just played this song on Sunday as a last minute offertory,but I was thinking on the words of verse 3..."Go to a world that is dying..."

Getting Ready to Leave...

Well this Saturday I am headed to Texas with 15 other people from my church.We are going down to spend a week at BPS working in Juarez,Mexico.I am excited about this opportunity that the Lord has allowed.This will be my second year going and I cannot wait to see how the Lord works this year!I know the week will go by so fast,but I am going to try and soak it all in,share with as many people as possible,and learn the lessons that the Lord wants to teach me.I have been looking at last years pictures and videos...getting myself all excited.I am sure tomorrow night will make me even more excited as I go to church and talk to my friends about going.Please pray for us as we go take the Word of God to the lost people of Juarez,Mexico!





Here is a link to the BPS video...I thought you might want to watch it.
2Thessalonians 3:1  Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you:

I Love...

talking to my sisters...

even though it seems like these are the only ways we get to talk anymore... I still enjoy it,and I am looking forward to the day where we can all talk face to face!!!!!!!
" I’ve discovered that
the Internet is one of the primary ways
that we can lose our spiritual sharpness.
Instead of becoming dead to the world, we
become distracted and preoccupied with
the world through the things we encounter
on our computer screen...

...Even more dangerous, when we have an
unhealthy addiction to the Internet, our
mind is influenced by worldly reasoning
and worldly priorities, instead of continually
meditating upon God’s Truth and His
agenda."

Some thought provoking quotes out of an article I read online.

Here are some random pictures that I took over the past weekend.I had a good time taking them...it was nice and quiet...gave me some time to talk to my Lord.I love moments where I can go out and enjoy nature with just me and God.
