Forever Reign

First of all, sorry I haven't posted in a while!! Homework suddenly got a whole lot worse, but I'm caught up now so I have time to post :)

Last night at youth group, we sang some new songs I hadn't heard before, and I really want to share the lrics with you :) It's a good song. You should look it up on YouTube. :)

Forever Reign <3 bu  Hillsong
You are good You are good
When there's nothing good in me
You are love You are love
On display for all to see
You are light You are light
When the darkness closes in
You are hope You are hope
You have covered all my sin

You are peace You are peace
When my fear is crippling
You are true You are true
Even in my wandering
You are joy You are joy
You're the reason that I sing
You are life You are life
Even death has lost its sting

Oh, I'm running to your arms
I'm running to your arms,
The riches of your love
Will always be enough
Nothing compares to your embrace
Light of the world, forever reign

You are more You are more
Than my words could ever say
You are Lord You are Lord
All creation will proclaim
You are here You are here
In your presence I'm made whole
You are God You are God
Of all else I'm letting go

Oh, I'm running to your arms
I'm running to your arms,
The riches of your love
Will always be enough
Nothing compares to your embrace
Light of the world, forever reign

Hallelujah, forever,
All the glory, forever
All the praise to You

My heart will sing
No other name
Jesus, Jesus

Oh, I'm running to your arms
I'm running to your arms,
The riches of your love
Will always be enough
Nothing compares to your embrace
Light of the world, forever reign

Good song. The end.

3 things.

1. Alliance Youth Conference, part 2
It was amazing!! Workshops, human videos, concert, great teaching, and oh so many memories :) If anyone's interested, there will be another AYC in San Diego on November 11 and 12. Register @ OneGenerationUnderGod.com for only $19 presale :) I encourage you to go and grow in your walk with God!! :)

2. 9/11
Wow. With all the news and documentaries and articles, it was hard NOT to see this tragic day coming. To all those who lost loved ones, I am truly sorry. Know that half of America has you in their prayers and I can't even imagine the pain you must feel. Every year I am humbled by the memories of the brave people that risked their lives in an attempt to save anyone they could. We are truly indebted to your service. Thank you.

3. Just for fun
I am in Graphic Design this year at school, and we're working in Photoshop this semester, and I LOVE it!! I actually want to be a graphic designer when I grow up, so I'm really enjoying the class. Anyway, just for fun, I made this :)
Pretty cool, right? I think so. It was fun to make, anyway.

Hope your week is great!

Alliance Youth Conference, Part 1

I just had an amazing night at the Alliance Youth Conference!! I had the privilege of hearing Mike Wilson speak and an amazing rap group called Go Project who I definitely encourage you to look up - they have a great message and very upbeat, dance-able music :) I'm going back tomorrow so I'll post more details then!

My Head is in the Clouds...

Clouds.



What makes them so amazing? I think it's because of God. Really. I mean, how often do you look up at the clouds and say "Wow. God is amazing" ? I actually do that a lot. With many things, but lately mostly with clouds.

For some reason, it's been kinda rainy where I live and so naturally, there's a lot of clouds. Which then makes the sunsets gorgeous. Which then makes me wish I had one of those huge, expensive cameras to get a picture of it with. But that's beside the point.

Looking at the clouds, I feel small. They expand outside of my peripheral vision, going as far as I can see and then some. What kind of natural phenomenon could this be!? I believe beauty can't occur by itself. You don't just wake up with your hair perfect and make up on and everything (side note - I don't think make up is what makes you beautiful! God made you perfect, and he didn't make you with make up. In a weird way, wearing make up is just changing the way God made you! But I'll talk about that more later.)... you have to MAKE it that way. Same with clouds, for example. They didn't just POOF! -appear one day. God spent a whole day perfecting them, along with the Heavens and the Earth. Shouldn't you appreciate them just thinking about that?!

Anyway, that's been on my mind lately and I guess this blog is my spot to share my random thoughts. :)
