i will exalt you,you are my God...

My hiding place.

When in a situation at times i admit to feeling emotional, down right sad at times, frustrated and confused on how to deal with certain issues.

When in my hiding place i feel warmth and a sense of understanding comes over me. A feeling that overpowers all flesh, all fear and thoughts that I shouldn't be dealing with.

Gods love accentuates all aspects of my life, he as the annointed one appoints me of why i am feeling this way. I treasure my Lord always, and believe in the most holy through any time, even through hardship. He is my safe refuge.

“The LORD, the LORD, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness....:" Exodus 34:6


I trust in you Lord,

like a fire..

First off to any readers out there do not misinterpret what I'm saying...i tend to type whatever is on my mind. :)

I was reading the book of Joshua today and I was very inspired.I was realizing how often times God sends us out to do a special task that we too often run away from what he has planned for us. We get wrapped in a "schedule" or "Routine".

You can be so involved at a church or overwhelmed with being in the midst of activities, but still be STUCK. We as humans at times lack passion.At times we aren't being the examples we should be. When God shares his plans he has for you, he shows you in ways you can understand never will he confuse you. He wants to get us all to a certain point.

Here is when distractions come into the picture but Do not be discouraged. There is a way to cut off distractions,whether its music, television, sometimes even people or yourself...clear your mind of all doubt! Going back to the issue of being soooo involved in the church we loose the point and become in love with "the church" instead of God. In order to get where God wants you to be, you've got to connect with God. Even if you are dealing with any type of issue, know that God will bring you out he holds the keys to what your going through.
Faith comes in handy at all times. Your faith in GOD overpowers any obstacle! To any readers who are in the state of mind that you feel you are stuck or have no way out, BE ENCOURAGED! Nothing is impossible for God or for you, when you have him by your side.

Mi Dios es santo!

1am, Crying on my knees to my dear Lord. When God calls,drop what your doing and listen to his voice. When one decides to rely on his own instincts it conflicts with the will of God, what does he have to say? One thing i tend to do when making a decision is asking God... "What is it that you want me to do Lord? Often times, we become so occupied by our surroundings and routines that we tend to forget what our calling is.I do not know if anyone reads this,but if you are i encourage you to always remember that we as humans might not always receive good, but a praise should remain in our heart. A burning passion to do his will. It will get rough but ,stand your ground his ways are perfect. Just as his word says ; Psalm 139:14 (New International Version)

14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.

I cherish the moments when i feel the warmth of God's love. I can always feel him face to face.

Let everything i do be for you and because of your will...i love you my God.

Permita todo lo que soy para ti y a causa de tu voluntad...te adoro mi Dios.

the beginning of something great...

I am sitting down by my window watching the rain drops fall...
Oh how beautiful the creation of the Lord is.

It has been a while since San Diego has had a rainy season...i love it! :)
Today was a day to reminisce on my future plans. I grabbed a notepad and pen and began to list what it is i want to do in life. At my eighteen years of age, i feel as if i haven't done anything. I NEED TO DO SOMETHING , before i go crazy LOL!!

It was a productive day none the less, rearranged my closet, took winter clothes out and left some summer clothes just in case this crazy San Diego weather changes once again as it has before! :) I updated my ipod and added Christmas tunes...my fave time of the yeaaaaaaaaar!!! I also wrote and finished a couple of songs i had in notebooks!

Overall, a boring day turned into a productive day....I STILL LOVE THE RAIN,

^___^

Not a day goes by that I don't long to see his face! It feels great to be living the blessed life. My goal that I constantly strive for is to use the annointing he places and impact lives, so that others may witness his love and his power! God has an orderly purpose for everything behind every situation that occurs there is an understanding that I ponder, which is Peace. My prayer is that I never get to the point in my life that it becomes a "boring routine"...the other day at my local youth's bible study we had a special guest ..our CO-Pastor Bobby Dominguez said something that impacted me.. "Practice Christianity,not "churchianity" ".
Living my life Devoted to God is a challenge certainly not an easy one but with everything i have i dedicate to him. Sacrifice oveR stubborness...those barriers have been torn down. Comittment to the almighty who reigns over everything. Forever i will stand by him, forever i will run to him, and forever will i remain in his path.

If you judge people, you have no time to love them.
Love God and love one another.

Simple thought i am ponderding on...

led me to these verses...


"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another."John 13:34

By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." John 13:35

"Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love." Ephesians 4:2


Oh the power of love!!!
