not.of.this.world.

I got the above title from a clothing line. It's a brand that goes beyond the norm. NOTW is an identity set apart, to save and empower lives.

Personally, God has really challenged me with being different from the world. After watching the movie "To Save a Life," I wanted to make a difference by sharing with others the good news, that Jesus gave His life for us, so that we can one day be reunited with Him in Heaven. Also, that we don't have to face life alone and that Jesus' love is unfailing.

I really just love this song a lot. 

I can see it in your eyes that you are restless. The time has come for you to leave. Its so hard to let you go, but in this life I know you have to be who you were made to be. As you step out on the road I’ll say a prayer. So that in my heart you always will be there. This is not goodbye, I know we’ll meet again. So let your life begin. Cause this is not goodbye, its just I love you, to keep with you, until you’re home again. Stirring in your soul has left you wondering. Should you stay or turn around? Well just remember your dreams, they are a promise that you were made to change the world. So don’t let fear stop you know. Cause this is not goodbye. I know we’ll meet again. I know the brightest star above was created by the One who loved more than we’ll ever know. To guide you when you’re lost. What started as a still small voice, is raging now, and your only choice is to follow who you are. So follow who you are!

"Your most profound and intimate experiences of worship will likely be in your darkest days—when your heart is broken, when you feel abandoned, when you’re out of options, when the pain is great—and you turn to God alone."

- Rick Warren (via anancientlove)

  • Your happiness will not sustain you for your journey. Let’s get down to joy
  • If you live long enough, you’ll bleed. Your strength someday will fail…

“As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins,  in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath.But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy,  made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions —it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith —and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” - Ephesians 2:1-10

“…One thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead” (Philippians 3:13, NIV)  In order to move forward in life, we have to “let go of the past.” But have you ever wondered exactly how to do that? First, understand that we take hold of things in our minds with our thoughts. Our thoughts become words and actions that determine the direction of our lives. It’s that simple. If you want to choose a new direction for your life, you have to choose new thoughts. If you want to let go of the past, you have to quit thinking about it, quit talking about it, and quit reliving every negative experience.  Oftentimes, when we see someone who has hurt us, that pain and offense is stirred up, and we start thinking about what happened again. But in that moment, you have a choice to make. One of the best things you can do, instead of rehearsing the hurt, is to pray for that person and speak blessing over them.  Remember, forgiveness is for you. Letting go of bitterness is for you. Don’t let the past hold you back from what God has in store for your future any longer. Get past the past by choosing right thoughts because God has victory and blessing in store for your future! A PRAYER FOR TODAY   Father God, I humbly come to You today. I choose to let go of the past. I choose to release those who have hurt me so I can embrace the best that you have for me. Help me to forgive, help me to love, and help me to stay on the good path You have for me in Jesus’ name. Amen. Forget The Past & Look Forward To The Future

Society is wrong. Dead wrong. We’re taught that exotic is beautiful. We’re taught to believe that miniature waists, and perfect tans are beautiful. We’re convinced that the blonde girls with the gorgeous smiles will win every time. But, the truth is? Originality is beautiful. Big brown eyes, green eyes, blue eyes. Curves. Your natural skin tone is beautiful. Your hair color, your smile. Your voice, your laugh, your personality. Every inch of you is beautiful, every single part of you shines with your essence. You, my dear? You’re lovely.

"Jesus Christ did not suffer so that you would not suffer. He suffered so that when you suffer, you’ll become more like Him. The gospel does not promise you better life circumstances; it promises you a better life."
