[him-first]

when was the last time you got on your knees and wholeheartedly cried out to God? when was the last time you let the tears stream down your face without shame? God doesn't want the clean and perfect version of you; He wants the messy and genuinely honest version of you. He doesn't mind if your prayers aren't poetry, He just wants your heart. even if you don't have the strength to utter the words, He knows your heart. the name of Jesus holds enough power, it is enough. God is your Father. He has already made a way for you to have an intimate relationship with Him. His blood clothes you for eternity and washes you anew. run back to Him with a genuine, broken, and surrendered heart.

my mantra for the last few days has been, “Lord, carry me through”. full prayer is a struggle, but i think this is enough. Lord, carry me through.

God is omniscient and omnipotent, so that means that God would have knew how badly humans would mess up the world so why give us free-will?

This also means that God should have knew that Adam and Eve would have gone against his word

How much more does God have to show you for you to realise the Bible is the TRUTH?

🇮🇱People in Israel need to repent and give their lives to Christ. 

🇵🇸People in Palestine need to repent and give their lives to Christ.

🌏People globally need to repent and give their lives to Christ.

I don’t care about theories or your opinions.. This is REAL LIFE. What you were raised to believe, what education you have and your life experiences don't matter right now.. None of that stops this from happening!! None of that stops scripture from coming true over and over and over again.

How many more times are you going to deny Jesus, before Jesus denies you?

What In The World?

Reflections on my trip to the Galapagos Archipelago.

Early morning on the Galapagos What in the world did our planet look like before man got involved? Everywhere we see the hand of man. Big cities, industrial plants, trash on the side of the road. We have our National Parks which are fairly pristine, but we do see the hand of man in our parks. Ranchers are allowed to graze their cattle, there are roads and bathrooms and markers to explain the…

A reminder that our difficulties don't last long. The JOY that comes from God is about to come. He will bless your way because you have been faithful to him.

I pray deliverance, blessing, hope and love to you all. May we all continue to seek God whatever season in life we are in.

Love, Alice!

Lord of all peace, You have called us out of the world so that Your peace will abide within us, sustaining us, giving us courage, wisdom and strength. I open my life to You, dear Lord, and pray that the many distractions and commotions imposed upon me by the world will begin to cease. May I always hear Your gentle voice and follow You to the place of silent repose found only in You. Jesus, I trust in You.

Hellooos I'm Genesis

[not my actual name]

This account will be a collection of my religious knowledge and questions (mainly for myself but my account is public in case it helps others)

This will be mostly to help me with my Religious studies for school as I study it for my GCSEs

I currently align myself as agnostic, but I study faith quite thoroughly and attend a Catholic school. Personally, I believe that if it wasn't for the sheer number of questions and answers that just give me more questions, I'd probably be Christian under some denomination

May your struggles keep you near the cross.

And may your troubles show you that you need God.

And may your battles end the way they should.

And may your bad days prove that God is good.

And may your whole life prove that God is good.

The battle of thoughts.

Have you ever felt like you are drowning in your thoughts? Like you get caught up in them, feeling like you are in a tornado, spinning faster and faster. To the point, where you can’t stop thinking, feeling paralised and unable to break out of your thoughts.

I’ve always been someone who overthinks pretty much everything, even the smallest details. In the past few months, there have happened so many things and there have been so many new things and changes in my life. I’ve finished my a-levels, started my apprenticeship, lost my grandpa and welcomed another pony to my little pony herd, just to give a few examples. I experienced all kinds of emotions, went through highs and the lowest lows I ever went through.

And through all that, my thoughts were one of the hardest things to deal with.

Believing that God has a great and wonderful plan for my life, that he wants me to fulfill, I really want to follow his plans and not mine. And since I’m not really a patient person, I’d like to get to the finish line as fast as I can with not a single detour. Therefore, I was always thinking about my recent decisions, especially regarding my apprenticeship. And that then led to me letting in doubts and worries. So many questions and thoughts really fogged up my mind. What if God has a different plan for me? What if he wants me somewhere else? What if my decision to do this specific apprenticeship is going to lead to me taking longer to fulfill God’s plan for me? And so forth and so on.

All this thinking gave me headaches and at times, I really thought my head was gonna explode soon. I was so confused and was longing for peace. I prayed to God, asking for peace and begged and begged him over and over to tell me what to do. It took some time for me to be calm enough to listen to what God was trying to say to me, but I finally realized that my thoughts and my mindset were the biggest of my problems. That they were the thing, that kept me from enjoying my life, despite whatever circumstances are around me. From that moment on, I tried to focus on everything good and thinking positive thoughts, rather than letting negative and doubtful thoughts take over. I would be lying to you if I told you it was easy - it was the opposite. Changing my thoughts and mindset was hard work and often times, it felt like a battle. A battle of thoughts, if you will. I had to fight every single day, praying and relying on God’s strength and help. Some days were easier, some days were harder. The progress was slow and often times it felt like there was none at all.

Now, a few months have passed and I’m so glad, that even though it was a slow process, I learned how to control my thoughts and lead them in the right directions with God’s help. Surely, there is still a lot more room to grow and I’m not at the finish line yet. But I’m also not where I was 3 months ago and as long as I keep going and making progress, that’s completely fine. Because at the end of the day, the only thing God is really interested in, is the attitudes of our hearts.

On that note, I would like to end this blog entry. I hope my little testimony maybe encourages you a little to keep on fighting with God’s help. He loves you and he will help you get through whatever it is your struggling with.

See you soon and be blessed!

Love, Johanna

Indecisiveness

I recently finished a booked by Joyce Meyer called DO IT AFRAID. I've always loved Joyce Meyer's books but this hits different. For a person who has been dealing with anxiety, the book has reminded me of what God is capable of doing: getting us through our difficult season.

There's a part of the book that I particularly love, it was when she mentioned that being indecisive is a SIN. It hit so hard because, I am a very Indecisive person. I change my plans consistently, I won't push through unless I'm 100% sure that it will go perfectly as I planned. If I have a month to plan for it, I'll definitely maximize that month just to make sure that all goes well. This is because I'm afraid. I'm afraid to fail, I'm afraid to waste the money I worked hard for, I'm afraid to disappoint people around me if something goes wrong. And if we are all being honest, we are all afraid to fail.

Being Indecisive is a sin because it means that we don't trust God enough to deliver us. We allow the devil to have his time to play around us and waste our time and opportunity. The devil fills our minds with "what ifs" to keep us from trusting God's plans for our lives.

In the book, Joyce Meyer mentioned that in life we really do fail. Everyone, even the richest and smartest people, has experienced failure. It maybe scary but failure is also a way to success. It help us grow and it teaches the best lessons in life. When our plans don't work out, it means that God has something better in store for us.

We need to remind ourselves of who God is and what He is capable of doing. We should remember the miracles He has already performed in our lives. If we truly trust God, surrendering our decisions to Him means allowing Him to take control, regardless of the outcome. When we're on God's side, we're already on the winning side. So whatever decision you're struggling with right now, surrender it to God because it's in His hands.
