Rediscovering You.

At the beginning of this summer I asked God to show me Him! I went through a time of Him teaching me to be on my own. I went through really hard time were even my Timber Lakes family couldn't help me! It was vary hard to be away from home and going through a storm of life! I told my mom this morning that this summer was God taking twigs by twigs out of the nest so that one day I will be able to go away to collage or be on my own and not miss home so much... I was in the mountains of Colorado and doing my quiet time and the song "Beautiful Sound" by the Newsboys came on my MP3 player. and it hit me like a ton of bricks! God brought me to Timber Lakes and Colorado to rediscover who He is! I grew up in the church I knew all the right things to say and when to say them! but it wasn't until I was 9 till I "got saved". then past that I didn't start living( I mean really live...lay my life down live for the lord) till the last year or so! I didn't know the real God! I didn't know my maker! a week ago tonight I wrote a journal entire about this summer and some things that went on and the last half of it went like this...



Getting to know who You really are
You laughed with me
You cried with me
You held me
You protected me
You guided me
You showed me You!
"Rediscovering You"


"I think I asked You Dad to show me You at the beginning of this summer. And You have! BLESSED BE YOUR NAME!"


it's funny how God answers prayers! no... not funny.... AMAZING!!!

I will leave you with my favorite line of "Beautiful Sound".....or maybe the whole thing! hehehehe....


Turn the page.
Can't turn the light out.
Every word, every line
Carries to my soul.
Dark letters on a page
Singing so loud.
Where did I go wrong
Not to hear You?
Eighteen years,
I guess it was all right.
I let You do the thinking,
I'd just bide my time.
Father to sonSunday hand-me-down.
Where did I go wrong
Not to hear Your song?
It's a beautiful sound
Moving through the crowd.
Voices lifted up
On high for You.
It's a beautiful song.
We've only just begun to understand.
Rediscovering You.
To have found You, and still be looking for You,
It's "the soul's paradox of love."
You fill my cup, I lift it up for more.
I won't stop now that I'm free.
I'll be chasing You
Like You chase me.
It's a beautiful sound
Moving through the crowd.
Voices lifted up
On high for You.
It's a beautiful song.
We've only just begun to understand.
Rediscovering You.
The end.

GUESS WHO'S WON

Now that it's on, we're out in the front of this marathon I never really thought we were in such a big fight, until the other night . You see me and my sister share a room and have all but 4 years of my life! And Saturday she had a friend over and so I was in my room alone! I was getting ready for bed and I turned the light off and all of the sudden I felt this feeling that I was not alone in the room like some one was watching me. This wasn’t the first time that it has happened to me before but normally I let it be and try to go to sleep. but this time it was so strong I couldn’t do that! So I thought this is not of God so I said with as much confidence as I could muster IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST GET OUT! And it left. I was fine! War can be ugly. And this one is going to be big! Cause We're on the enemy's hit list. So step back I'm on a one way track, devil To take back all the things that you've stolen. And with the power of God I'm gonna persevere. ...

Gossip

I wrote the poem when I was in my Gossip infested small group at my old church... I didn't like all the drama that went on there... and when I tryed to keep some friends from that group gossip and drama just crept right back into my friendship with them... the only way to get rid of drama and gossip is to surround your-self with Godly friends and not to partake in it... it was hard for me to do this and i still catch my-self doing my share of the gossiping! so read share what you think and yeah so talk to you all later! It spreads like water It burns like an unstoppable fire It goes on and on It hurts like a knife wound It spreads like a weed It goes on and on It messes with your emotions It tears relationships apart It goes on and on It you can never trust It plays with your mind It goes on and on It causes problems It you can never stop It goes on and on It divides groups It is wicked It goes on and on It is all these things and It goes on and on One love One God Only one...

life in a new world.

somewhere between the 4th and 8th episode of lost and the 8 pieces of pizza I realized I have an extended family! with cousins, aunts, uncles, grandmas, and grandpas! I have gone 7 years without them and now i have them in the body of Christ...the thing is with the body of Christ we are more connected and more deep then my blood extend family EVER was. and it feels good! Life in the body of Christ, makes me want to be more then just okay! I love my church and everyone in it! and i feel this is where God truly wants me to be! as i turn 17 I look back on the last few years I have had my heart broken by a boy...I have had about 6 or 7 "true" friendships fall apart... and i left the church I had gone to since i was 4! alot has happened yet i was NEVER truly deep down to the soul happy. but i would LOVE to tell you I am now! God has given me the best family a girl could ask for and great church family too... I am SO lucky you guys should just start calling me lucky! ~AEG~
