Empty Me - I Surrender AllI've seen just enough of the quick buys of the best lies
To know how prodigals can be drawn away.
I know how I can stray
And how fast my heart could change.

Empty me of the selfishness inside
Every vain ambition and the poison of my pride
And any foolish thing my heart holds to
Lord empty me of me so I can be filled with you.

Cause everything is a lesser thing
Compared to you, compared to you.
Cause everything is a lesser thing
Compared to you. So, I surrender all!

This is a song that has laid on my heart all day today. This is a prayer that I really need to be praying daily in the morning, at night, before I go out, before I go to church, before worship, before prayer, before life. I need to be praying to be totally emptied of everything that is in my and in my heart so that I can be filled with God and be focused solely on him and his will. After all, thats all that matters anyway.
Serving GodMy blog has defnitely been neglected for a while, but its not because I have forgotten about it. I have just been looking for stuff to blog about. I decided to do something different this time. While reading my latest book, "And the Angels Were Silent" by Max Lucado, an idea sparked in my head to blog about. Its hard to explain but I wanted to explain how we don't have to know all these great amazing things about God. We don't have to know about his plans or what the future holds. All we have to know is that God is in control and he is our Savior. Its that simple. So, in that light, I have decided to make a video about that concept. Enjoy!

Song: My Savior My God - Aaron Shust.Thoughts on Life :]]I recieved this email today and I really enjoyed it. We must remember, life is a gift. Everyday deserves a chance and we should always just lighten-up, give God control and just hold on for the ride! :]

Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk, smile.
It is the ultimate antidepressant.

Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day. Buy a clock
if you have to.

Always pray and make time to exercise.

Spend more time with people over the age of 70 and under the
age of six.

Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less
foods that are manufactured in Plants.

Drink green tea and plenty of water. Eat broccoli, almonds &
walnuts.

Try to make at least three people smile each day.

Clear your clutter from your house, car, desk, and let new and
flowing energy into your life.

Don't waste your precious energy on gossip, issues of the
past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Instead, invest your
energy in the positive present moment.

Realize that life is a school and you are here to learn.
Problems are simply part of the curriculum, that appear and fade away like
algebra class .......but the lessons you learn will last a lifetime.

Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner
like a college kid with a maxed out charge card.

Life isn't fair, but it's still good.

Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.

You don't have to win every argument.. Agree to disagree.

Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.

Don't compare your life to others'. You have no Idea what
their journey is all about.

Ladies - Go on and burn those 'special' scented Candles, use
the 600 thread count sheets, the good china and wear fancy lingerie now.
Stop waiting for a special occasion. Every day is special.

No one is in charge of your happiness except you.

Frame ever y so-c alled disaster with these words: 'In five
years, will this matter?'

Forgive everyone for everything.

What other people think of you is none of your business.

Time heals almost everything. Give time, time!

However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

Your job won't take care of you when you are Sick. Your
friends will. Stay in touch with them.

Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful.

Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need. God
provides, remember?!

The best is yet to come. (In Heaven)

No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up..

Do the right thing!

Call your family often.

Each night before you go to bed complete the following
statements:
'I am thankful for __________.'
Today I accomplished _________..

Remember that you are too blessed to be stressed.

Enjoy the ride. Remember that this is not Disney World and
you certainly don't want a fast pass. You only have one ride through life so
make the most of it and enjoy the ride.

LIVE, LOVE, LAUGH. LIFE'S A PRESENT . . . UNWRAP IT!

Jesus said to him, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.
Matthew 22:37 :]]
