YOUR choices WILL CHANGE THE WORLD!

Dude,

I mean I know I am not perfect. Actually I am quite far from perfection... sadly so. But I am content with who I am right now. But besides that, something else that I do know is that God has made us powerful! Our decisions have the ability to create a new world. If you can imagine and decide to pursue something beautiful, healthy, alive and flowing with love... then it may as well become a reality. and it soon will be. My friend, there is one Lover of our souls. His name is Jesus. The reason why it is so important to acknowledge Christ as a reality is because, let's face it, you have a choice. Even though Jesus wasn't a super hot pop icon, He changed this world with his thoughts. He shared His thoughts with people, and some of His thoughts changed the people who listened. If someone told me I could be healed(and i am very ill), and it was through a man who confessed to be God... I would listen to what he had to say, if it seemed to align with my spirit, i would believe what He says. I mean, i might be like Doubting Thomas, but now as a believer, i really believe every word that hung in the air as it left HIS mouth. I believe Jesus is the only way, the real truth, and He gives real life. why? because after 10 years, i have had some time to test Him out. and believe me, I have! He has been One of the only ones to love me NO MATTER WHAT. No matter what has happened, he has been right there. I mean like closer than the breathe you use to fog up a mirror. That close every step of every road ive walked down. He has opened my eyes to true love and beauty, which (i love this lyric from jack johnson) "is found in the trees and not the glass windows." I read the scriptures, and they are just amazing. they prove the truth over and over and over again, FOREVER! meaning the scriptures will always stand up against all other lines of thought! That's freakin something!

SO I divulge all this, out of inspiration from my tea bag that so poignant stated "Your choices WILL change the world." thank you tea bag, and Jesus for ultimately letting me see this!

I just want to think about Jesus. My first love. I want to ponder his outlook, and have it transform my mind. i want to practice love, and honesty. brotherly love, compassion, forgiveness. living in the reality that as i walk (or ride my bike) down the street someone may be healed from a sickness that has kept them from believing in CHrist. I have no idea what could happen, i must go out and live. who knows? i didn't think that today the reality of becoming a dancer in an art gallery, performing for the respect of women everywhere. breaking the chains! so, here we go! pray for me that i may fearlessly make known the gospel of Christ for which i am in chains for. I pray the same thing for you. everyday, that you would look into someone's eyes, with love, and say I love you, because I know real love from Jesus. WE love because HE first loved us. We learn by example in His economy of things. (Praise you Jesus) I also pray that His face would openly SHINE upon you! That LIFE would flow from within you, as you allow it to fill you.

Filled up and running over out of the gRACE of our Saviour Jesus,
Lindsay

  1. Hey Miss Lindsay!
    That was really encouraging! I have been trying to get on your blog since forever and haven't had the chance. School started, it's been tough with homework, tests, quizzes..everything! and I am not doing the dance concert this year which of course is creation, the one year I can't do it. Which has been tearing me apart but, God knows and He has a plan. I really miss you and want to get together to catch up! Your back from Costa I'm almost positive correct?
    love lizzy
