HIDE -JOY WILLIAMS

To anyone who hides behind a smile
To anyone who holds their pain inside
To anyone who thinks they're not good enough
To anyone who feels unworthy of love
To anyone who ever closed the door
Closed their eyes and locked themselves away

You don't have to hide
You don't have to hide anymore
You don't have to face this on your own
You don't have to hide anymore

So come out, come out, come out wherever you are
To anyone who's tryin' to cover up their scars
To anyone who's ever made a big mistake
We've all been there, so don't be ashamed
Come out, come out and join the rest of us
You've been alone for way too long

And if you feel like no one understands
Come to the One with scars on His hands
'Cause He knows where you are, where you've been
His scars will heal you if you let Him

well this song just encourages me alot. my friend aleisha showed me this song, and i just broke down and bawled my eyes out. this song is suchhhh an encouragement at times when i just feel like i want it to end i hate everything and it just makes me feel like im not alone, even if i feel like i am. it just reminds us we can go to God always, he will comfort us and just let us confide in him. it just makes you think, alot of us hide behind a smile and say everything is ok, but theres always something that is eating us away inside. once again, this just says you dont have to face this on your own.... just ahhhhhh idk wat to say but i loveeee this song, listen to it, my heart totally broke in two, cuz it just feels like my life is like this alot of times.... i just want to thank everyone who has helped me and encouraged me when i need it cuz it does help, even when i feel totally alone... i loveeeeeee you guys soooo much!!!!!!

Verse of the Day

Matthew 1:21
She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins."

Well, this is just a reminder that Jesus is the Reason for the season. I know that i definately get caught up in the busyness of the season and forget the whole reason we celebrate this holiday. Jesus was born to save us from our sinfullness, and that is the reason we are here today. This verse also says he WILL save us from our sins, forever and ever no matter how many times we screw up. Just a reminder this holiday season!!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!! loveeeeeee you ALLLLLLLLL!!!!!

Verse of the Day

James 1:12
Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.

well, idk if i did this verse already, but im gonna do this anyways.... well this verse i used on my biology report and i reallly liked it soooo......Basically this just says that the man that perseveres under trial he will recieve a reward from God if he is a christian. This is saying we all go through many struggles and trials during this life, and we will be rewarded for persevering and not giving up. My one friend told me one day, DONT give up, you werent made to give up, and she showed me this verse. When you want to give up and want everything to end, remember persevereance shows character and you will recieve a reward for persevering. NEVER GIVE UP!!!!!!!! persevere guysss!!! i loveeeee all of you!!!!!

Verse of the Day

John 8;12 says:::
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."

This verse is one of the greatest verses in the bible..... i think cuz it tells us, we do have a way out of going to hell for all eternity. Jesus is the light of the world, and in the darkness, the light still shines brightly.... also, we as christians should be the light of the world. alot of christians say their christians, and they are just talking the talk, not walking the walk. WE need to be the light in the world, even in the midst of this darkness. are you shining your light for jesus????

This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine,
I'm gonna let it shine
Let it shine,
Let it shine,
Let it shine.

just a reminder, what we used to sing when we were kidsssss..........
dont let satan blow your light out!!!! love u guyzzzzzz
