James 1:19-20
My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry, for man’s anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.
Next time you’re ready to yell or get angry at someone think of this verse. Let’s all live a righteous life that God wants us to have. I know it sounds hard but with his help we can do all...
God's love...
I’ve come to the realization that God loves me very much. More then anyone could. I just wish I could remember that everyday. Today at church our youth group talked about the first time we really understood how much we love him and how much He loves us. The fact that I could remember that time amazes me. I just wish to have more times like that.
God sent his ONE and ONLY son to die on the...

John 4:24
God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.
Sometimes people worship for their own benefit. They think that its their time to come to God and bring all their requests to him. There are times where we can forget the real purpose to worship. We worship to bring praise to GOD. Not for ourselves or for anyone else. When we do come before God to worship him, we have to...
Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight.
This week has been quite frustrating. Not gonna lie. Drama, hurt, pain, sickness, and suffering. This week was just hard because people I cared about are going through it and it hurts to see that. There isn’t anything I can do anymore. They...
meeghan asked: Hi! (: I usually don't follow people I don't know, but I seemed to like your posts. [: I noticed you following my letterstohim site when I was browsing through my followers. You seem like a pretty cool person. :D
Psalm 37:4
Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart.
I just needed to read this verse today. If you have any input please reblog. I would love to read what you have to say(:
II Timothy 1:7
For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.
Don’t be afraid. God has our lives in his hands. He gives us the power, love, and self-discipline that we need. Be thankful for that(:
“Loving God is simply letting God love you.”
Ephesians 5:1-2
Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
God is the perfect example of love. He sent his son to save our lives. We need to imitate that same love. Not saying we have to sacrifice our loved ones… but just show that love to people that don’t get it...
Hebrews 11:1 (@ameeeeee i liked the verse you...
Faith is being sure of the things we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about the things we cannot see.
Just one simple statement: Let’s have faith.
Faith that what we want will happen in GOD’s timing. Faith that things are going to be okay. Faith that no matter what, God loves us unconditionally. This verse is a great definition of what faith is. And although it...
“If we were a movie, you’d be the right guy and I’d be the best...”
“We should get jerseys cause we make a good team.”
1 Corinthians 13: 4-7, 13
Love is patient, love is kind. It 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. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres…. And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is...
Stormy weather...
So it has been raining like crazy this past week. And I love it. A lot of people don’t… but I do for some odd reason. I love hearing the rain hit my window, seeing lightening, and hearing thunder follow right after. I enjoy water falling from the sky. Today at school I didn’t wear my hood at all just cause I loved feeling the water fall on my head. Even though I got wet it was...
Roman 8:28
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
In case you didn’t notice… the scripture says that in ALL things God works for the good… Everything he does in our lives is to benefit us. He’s called us for his purpose and we shouldn’t be afraid to follow after what he wants for us. Just...
Funniest conversation...
Mom: Cheese is really good.
Me: Yea I like cheese. I don’t like blue cheese though.
Mom: Yea me neither.
Me: I like cottage cheese and cheddar…
Elias: I like cream cheese.
Epic fail little brother(:
“Here I am to worship. Here I am to bow down. Here I am to say that you’re...”
Jeremiah 29:13
You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.
When we seek God we need to do it with all our heart. We can’t seek him whenever we want and expect to find him. We have to take the time to really find out who God is.
1 Corinthians 10:13
No test or temptation that comes your way is beyond the course of what others have had to face. All you need to remember is that God will never let you down; he’ll never let you be pushed past your limit; he’ll always be there to help you come through it.
(The Message)
We’ve all gone through stuff. We may have not suffered the same way others have, but we all go through some...
“So people wait for a lifetime to feel like this baby. They keep waiting. So lets...”
“Love is made by God… Ignore it and you will suffer in ways you can’t...”
Long day.
I was at school for a very long time today. From 7:40 a.m. to 9:00 p.m… Homecoming rally was amazing. Student council did a hecka good job decorating. Juniors were awesome. Homecoming basketball games were really good too. Got to hang out with my friends all day. Then PANDAmonium crew with a couple extra people hung out till 1 in the morning. Today was LE-GIT. But now I’m tired…...
Distractions please?
Besides not having any homework. Tonight is bleh. I just wanna get away from home for a while. So I can just clear my head without having someone banging on my door, blasting music, or bothering me. I’m sorry to complain… I would just like to get away for bit.
“If home is where the heart is then my home is where you are. But its getting oh...”

Intense COD2 game with the guys.
So its late… I need to sleep. But I gotta blog about this intense game of Call of Duty with my older brother and cousin. I have these 24 year old guys playing against little ‘ol me. It was free for all. I was winning and then my brother came back. So I got second place. I was happy. haha It was so much fun. Tomorrow is disney day. Woo! okay goodnight world. (:
13 already?
My younger brother is 13. It’s quite crazy. He’s getting older by the minute and taller. We had a little party with the fambam and it was pretty awesome. It included amazing japanese food, a cake shaped like a basketball and jersey, an upperplayground sweatshirt that everyone thought was evil aha, a good warriors game (even though they lost), andddd a failed attempt at playing...
This week

As for my weekend… it was good. Got to chill with fam&friends. Got no sleep due to late-night phone call conversations(:

All In God's Timing
He came to church tonight(: It had been while. I’ve been praying for him. And I think God is slowly breaking through to him. I almost cried because I saw him raise his hands during worship. I know that God is breaking his heart. Slowly but surely he’s gonna open himself up to the Lord again.
For those who don’t believe in prayer. Think again… it does work. Maybe not when...
Hanging out with Krissel Abarte.
“It’s a jackalope” hahaha I love her. We are just chillin at my house and she’s going crazy. And she’s getting chills. I love just being around my fam&friends. They are great. ha. (:
“So I’ll stand with arms high and heart abandoned. In awe of the one who...”
Farther and farther away
It’s not like I’m trying to pull myself away from all of them. I just don’t feel apart of their “group” anymore. I haven’t hung out with any of them in so long. Its sad. I don’t even know what is going on in their lives anymore. I miss them. I really do. But I don’t even sit with them at church anymore. They don’t talk to me. I’m trying...
Delivering a Christmas tree?
Sooo me and my friend Nick got to go across the street from our school and throw away a Christmas tree. It was pretty fun. I got to get out of school for a little bit. Nowww I’m in a study hall for 2 hours. Woo!
Where I am now.
It took about 2 years to finally open up my heart again. Not to just a guy but to people in general. It obviously took a while but I’m glad I’m finally comfortable enough to open up to others and start trusting them again. I didn’t want it to take this long but it did and in the end God blessed me with people I could open up my heart to. And those people that I finally decided to...
First day back...
So far so good. I’ve been really tired though. And I went to bed early. haha. I couldn’t keep my eyes open during class. Sooo bad. 4 more classes to go. -_-
It’s been nice seeing everyone again. I missed all my friends.(:
Christmas break comes to a close...
My break was great. I had so much fun. Hung out a lot with family and friends. I’m really sad it is coming to a close. I don’t want to go to school tomorrow, but I think it will be good to get back into the swing of things. It will be good to be busy again and not wasting away time at home doing nothing. haha
One thing I have to say. I can’t wait till Friday. (:
“I’m giving up, so just catch me. :)”
Good night...
Spent it with the fambam. Watched UP, ate pizza&ice cream, watched a whole hour of sportscenter, and laughed a lot. Fun night. (:
So funny....
My cousin: Lola be quiet. We are watching a movie.
Lola: oh you shut up.
Hahaha. This was so funny. Made my night.
