Jesus Mindset

THIS IS NOT WHAT I WROTE AND I DO NOT TAKE CREDIT FOR IT!

I thought this blog was very inspiring and I wanted to share it all with you. My friend wrote this on his blog and I was touched by it.

“Don’t stop the madness
Don’t stop the chaos
Don’t stop the pain surrounding me
Don’t be afraid to break my heart
Just bring me down to my knees”

Lord, I do not simply want a ‘hallmark’ type of relationship with you. I don’t want a relationship where I only come to you when things are bad or only when things are good. I want you in my life, in my mind every second of every day of every year for the rest of my life. I want you to break me down, I want you to break my heart. Make me broken lord.

For everything that I do that disgusts you, break me down. I want every distraction, every sin out. I so violently want them out lord. I willingly want you to break me down lord. Make me broken so that I can take everything and put you in it’s place. You are my father, my friend, my love, my family, my SAVIOR.

We cannot just ask for our sin to be gone. We can’t just kind of want it out. We need to want it. We need to fight every urge to sin. We need to make war with every sin. We need to be willing to give up our whole lives for the amazing and powerful man who gave up his life.

So lord I ask again, make me broken. Bring me to my knees. Show me every little thing in my life I must give up. I so badly want to please you and give you my ENTIRE life.

Proverbs 31 woman!

Proverbs 31 Woman!

Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears The Lord is to be praised. - Proverbs 31:30

A noble girl is worth more than diamonds.

Her family can trust her because she’s always trustworthy.

She gets home by her curfew, obeys her parents and keeps her word.

She’s easy to be around, and she makes other people’s lives better.

She expands her mind by being willing to learn different kinds of skills and subjects.

She gets up in the morning without being crabby and helps around the house even more that what’s required of her.

She knows the value of money and doesn't waste it.

She works hard and does her best at school, never settling for “good enough.”

Whatever she tries, she always has a good attitude and gives it her best shot.

She isn't lazy.

She is kind and compassionate to everyone, regardless of popularity or personality.

She looks for ways to help those who have less that she does.

She makes wise choices and thinks ahead so she won’t have regrets later.

Her family is proud of the choices she makes.

She carries herself with strength and dignity, not making a fool of herself.

She doesn’t gossip, gripe, lie, insult, or offer unwanted opinions.

She reads God’s Word and seeks Him for wisdom.

Her beauty doesn’t come from what she wears or how her hair looks.

Her personality is sincere, not self-gratifying and fake.

She is beautiful because she is filled with passion for God.
