I LOVE GOD!! I WANT OTHERS TO LOVE GOD TOO!!Posted on 2007-Dec-7 at 08:43 - 1 Comments - Post Comment - LinkYou know yesterday after first block i have PE..... my friend Jordan was beside me and we were playing a game....suddenly people see her arm and they freakout...they say she's a pyco and other things....she clings to me and we runaway....i sat for the entire period out and away from them just talking to her.. She lost her best friend this past summer and it hurt her very badly...i found out she was just like me....i lost my sister and brother....i hurt all the time...she has depression adn so do i... i spent the entire time telling her about the great love God has and how He pulled me up from lower than my lowest low and lifted me high above everything that was not of God....i still hurt...but i have an inner peace that you can only obtain by going to God.... Dont walk to God.....RUN! God doesnt want us to hurt...we're His children...no parent wants to see their child hurt....God just wants to make it all better and when you accept Christ into your heart you will NEVER regret it! NEVER!!! I love God and i kno its been 5 months 3 weeks and 5 days...since i accepted Christ into my heart...(yea i keep track!) and people probably think i'm just a babby in Christ...I am...but i have a new understanding of things and that Happens when you get saved...and just because i'm young doesnt mean that i'm too young(1 Timothy 4:12) and i dont understand...i DO UNDERSTAND! I LOVE GOD! SO WHAT ELSE MATTERS?!?!?! I just want to help others come to know GOd..i could tell that God was working on Jordan's heart and i only pray that she lets Him have control just like i have...she won't regret it... Please pray for my friend...she needs it... Thank you guys for being so great and encouragin! i love you guys!!!

I was attacked by the same people! i was trying to tell them to stop making jokes about me and my faith.....because the same MAN that created me created them and it's just so horrible to see that they dont even care..... They told me i was too young....well in 1 Timothy.... Don't let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believers in what you teach, in the way you live, in your love, your faith, and your purity" - 1 Timothy 4:12 can i get a BOO YAH!!! and they were telling me all kinds of mean things and they thought it was funny...but..i'm okay..i thought i would handle it like the first time...but i didnt....i had the Lord right there with me and he helped me through it...It says in John Chapter 15:18 "If the world hates you, you know that it hated ME before it hated you." so I'm okay... If Jesus can get through it i know that i can.... I find comfort in the Lord becasue that's where all the comfort you NEED IS AT! Just RUN...dont walk...run to the Lord...he has His arms spread as far as they can go....he's wanting you to run to Him....so do it...He loves you...and so do I.. DOnt worry about me and my bus situation...i'll be fine....your prayers are greatly appreciated because i kno many of you are praying for me...

HOPEFULLY YOU UNDERSTAND THAT I LOVE GOD!!! GOD BLESS -MEGAN ELiZABETH PLANTING SEEDSPosted on 2007-Oct-4 at 09:00 - 2 Comments - Post Comment - Linkyesterday as i was going to my third block class i walked to my locker and my friend Dakota stopped me..."Megan, i've got a note for you." he handed me a folded piece of paper and walked off...i took my books out of my locker and walkd to my Algebra II class(arrrrggghhh) but i started to read my letter and i couldnt stop smiling... My friend Dakota and I hadn't talked in a while and well Dakota is a fellow Christian and he always encourages me whenever i speak to him...so hearing from him in the midst of a lot of stress was such a great blessin.... Dakota was saying how he was sad because he was seeing some of his friends and other people straight on their way to hell and they dont even know/care...he said that it is so discouraging and then he looks at me and sees God in me even on a bad day...do you know how happy that made me feel??? That's one thing i was always afraid of is that people wouldnt see Christ livin in me...i just want to help people and get them to know God, bt if they dont see Christ in me then how are they going to do that?? i was so happy at what Dakota said....he doesnt see w/ normal eyes..i didnt tell him this but he sees w/ eyes like mine...we see things...just by looking into someone's eyes you can tell alot...hurt...pain....stress...happiness...losss....sadness...anger...anything....just by their eyes...but looking into people that i talk to that aren't saved i see this longing...in some...not all...but i see this longing for something to fill the "void" in their hearts...you kno...like people that maybe have premarital sex or do drugs...they do this to try and fill that void in their hearts...but nothing seems to last...they may think it works..but then that great feeling they thought they had goes away.... God is the piece missing in their hearts...he fits that void perfectly and getting people to see that is so frustrating..like yesterday....that guy i used to date (see earlier blogs) well he dips remember....and he smokes...i think....i've been learning alot abotu that in health and i was telling him if he wanted me to get something for him he'd have to take all that dip out of his moutyh....he wouldnt do it...i told him that he would most likely get cancer...or have to get his face or jaw replaceed because that stuff messes you up really bad...he wouldnt listen...and they alll started to gang up on me...then they tried to get me to cuss...they alays do that on the bus and it is so scary because i dont want to do it..and i dont..i tell them that they know that i'm a Christian and just because i have stronger values and beliefs than they do that doesnt mean that i dont deserve respect...an these people that are trying to get me to sin are supposed to be my "friends" well i can live w/o those kinds of frilends...if they dont live to glorify God and His works then i dont want anything to do w/ them...but it is just so frustrating trying to help someone that doesn't want it...and needs it but doesnt care.... I cannot stand sin...gosh i wish it wasn't here..i hish that everything would be centered around God...i get so frustrated and sad that i'm not helping that i cry...it is just a big punch in the stomach when i dont get peopole to listen to me when i try to talk abot GOd and help them...but then i realized that just becasue they weren't listening doesnt mean that i didnt help God in His work....i planted a seed and when they are in front of God on judgement day He might say"no you had a chance to get to know me...remember Megan? She tried to help and talk about Me but you didnt want anything to do with it?" i would have done my part in planting a seed and i need to let God take care of the rest...i can't make every person i come to accept Christ right then..no matter how much i want to...but i can keep on planting seeds for Christ...and that's what i'm going to do.... -megan elizabeth DONT TRY TO SHUT ME UP! I WANNA TALK ABOUT GOD!! I really do Try to hellpPosted on 2007-Oct-1 at 07:57 - 0 Comments - Post Comment - LinkTo the person who left me a comment on september 29....thnx....i dont know who you are but thank you... I really do try to help people by telling them about my life and the things God does for me in this life...i am NOT perfect but i do try to live by God's word...i try to inspire people and motivate them to know God.... Sometimes i try and fail...but i dont really fail...i just dont get the outcome i want....i plant a seed everytime i talk to someone about God...that's all i have to do....leave the rest to God... and i dont think i have ever tried talkin to an atheist about God but i can imagine the pain and frustration you're going through..i am praying for you...jst keep going...God will take care of it all... To those who think you're all alone in your walk with God....kno that i'm here..i may not be able to help...but i will try my hardest.... I love you and God loves yo more! -megan elizabeth Who Am IPosted on 2007-Sep-26 at 08:21 - 1 Comments - Post Comment - Link"I am a flower quickly fading....here today and gone tomorrow....a wave tossed in the ocean...a vapor in the wind....still you here me when i'm calling....you catch me when i'm fallling and you told who i am....i am yours....i am yours...."
Do you kno that song? i love that song...it's by Casting Crowns...i beleive...YEP.i was rite..i just looked it up on www.asklyrics.com it's Casting Crowns song "Who Am I" i am just sitting here in class thinking about nothing at all and that song pops into my head....ever had that done before? well...i looked up the lyrics and read them....and i started to think....Who AM I? or rather who would i be if it wouldnt have been for Jesus that night in June....would i have left camp just like last year and never thought abot my lifestyle...would i still be in school...would i still be alive? would i be a good person....or a bad person??? Who would i be? Looking bak at how i acted last year it scares me to think if that would have progressed...i would have been going downhill....really fast....it scares me to think that some of my dearest friends are going on that same path that i used to be on...and it scares me to think that something bad will happen to them....that's why i talk to them about Jesus every time i can.... i knw you've heard me talk about my dear & true friend riley b before....but yesterday in the library....we were researching our poets for our projects ... "Who's your poet, riley?" I asked. "Shel Silverstein...he's kinda odd..." "Yea." "Who's yours?" "Shakespeare....Romeo Romeo...where for art thou, Romeo?" i joked. "It is the east and Juliet is the sun...." riley said... then he kept going on and on quoting Shakespeare...do you kno how shocked i was??? THis was riley b quoting Shakespeare to ME! he really impressed me...and its a shame to think that he's struggling...you see riley is like me...he doesnt let peple see the "real" him...or rather the vunerable side of him...the side that is really easy to hurt....we all have that side....but for some odd reason we show each other that side of us....and we trust that we are good enough friends that we wont tkae that privelege for granted....but riley doesnt come rigth out and say it...but i can see it in his eyes...he's struggling....and it hurts me deep to see that...riley is so very close to my heart and to see him like this...it makes me hurt...i know the answer is God and i tell him my story and all..and he is like 'yea i kno...and i totally get that...but it is very hard and i'm very proud of you for doing that...' it frustrates me because it is like i'm trying to tell him "NOW YOU DO IT! LET ME BE PROUD OF YOU!!! ACCEPT GOD!!!!" but it's not that easy.... now you're probably wondering what riley has to do with who i am for God....well who i am or rather who i was....was lost....hurt....struggling....sad.....angry....alone.....all of the time....God doesnt want us to be that way....with God in my life...i am now...happy....all of the time....like you never see me without a smile....with God all things are possible...you could be the most depressed person in the world but with God that will change in a snap! isn't that awesome!?!?!?!?!?!!! i think so.... just think abot who you are...or who you could be....with God! -megan elizabeth Casting Crowns...Who Am I Who Am I Who Am I I dont wonder Why anymore....Posted on 2007-Sep-25 at 08:55 - 0 Comments - Post Comment - Linkever wondered..."why is this happening to me?" "what have i done to deserve this?"...anything along those lines??? i know i'm guilty of that..... i used to whine to God asking him WHY??? Why me? Why now? Why? Why? Why?...then i realized how stupid i was not to have seen the answer right in front of me!!! Hello you big dummy (i'm talking to myself not you....lol...youre not a dummy) God allowed this to happen so you can help others come to kno him!!! DUHHHHH!!!!! I have delt with so many bad things in my life and i'm only 15...but instead of whining...i need to embrace it...i kno that sounds completly dumb...why would you ant to embrace the bad times...but i want to help people...people aren't going to listen to me if i dont have something to say...if i just say "I LOVE GOD AND YOU SHOuLD TOO!" sure people will listen but only long enough so they can start talking about how crazy i am....for yelling out in public...no...i need to have experience....i can't go by assumptions...i need to have my own story to tell....i need to tel others of what God has done for ME! i love to talk...anyone can tell you that...i can talk your head off....but until i found God i would cuss you out in a heartbeat or i would talk about stupid and pointless things...i had no purpose...i did whatever i wanted to...whenver i wanted to and i didnt care who i hurt along the way...until i realized that i was only truly hurting myself....i got saved and i started to realize that i could use my personal "drama" or "story" as a tool for God...i could tell people of my lowest low when i had no hope in the world and then i found God....or rather...i finally let God in....my life has been better every single day and i came to realize that if i help just one person then everything i've been through is totally worth it..i kno that everything i've been through completely sux but it'll be worth it if i help someone else.... to hear "my story" go to: it's pretty long and i hope i help...remember i love you but God loves you more.... -megan elizabeth God Loves You...Return the LovePosted on 2007-Sep-19 at 08:00 - 0 Comments - Post Comment - LinkGod is so amazing! i mean seriously...like i have been praying for something for so long and then.......BOOM!!!...it happens....and i'm like great....then i keep thinking about something else dealin w/ the same thing...not praying for it...just thinking abot how awesome it woulld be and then.......BANG!!! there it is.... God's going to take care of me...i'm a child of His and what do parents do....they provide for their kids....well heller....HE'S PROVIDING FOR ME!!! YAY ME!! and you can have that too...if you only let him in...all God wants is to be closer to you.... God sent His Son down for us....so i mean that kind of all ready lets you kno that he loves you...so why dont you take the right path and accept Him into your life? I kno why most people dont....it's too hard....that's exactly why...that's why it took me so long....and i'm only 15 and there are 20,30,40, even 50 year old adults living in sin....God didnt make life easy....Jesus' life is a prime example of that...but guess what...our lives are nowhere near as tough as Jesus'...so i think we all can suck it up and live life right....live for God....I just got saved in June and all i want to do is live for Him....do you even reallize how hard it is being a teenager and trying to lilve for God??? I got temptation coming out the butt....in other words...i got it everywhere.....but i trust in God and pray to Him and he keeps me safe and in the light.... I have so much joy in my life now that i have God in my heart....He has a huge part in my everday decisions....and yo kno what...i love it...God did make life hard...but he has a reason for that...you kno how people take vacations from work....well this is a metaphor...bt think of life as work because that's truly what it is....and think of heaven as....the bahamas...or the Aspen mountains..or Paris....or whereever your perfect vacation would be at....if you work hard....you get the reward...but jst think if you never got a day off...or if you had to work from 6am to 10pm...24/7/365 wouldnt that suck? wouldn't that be a hell on earth??? well you aint got it too bad because you aint on fire...but what i'm tryin to say is that if you work hard and good on this earth in your lifetime and live for God...you will get the reward....heaven....you see you could be the best and nicest person on earth...but if you've never accepted Christ into your heart then your up a chocolate creek without a popsicicle stik...now that's bad when your poor graham craker boat aint got no go-go juice....lol...but you kind of get the point.... ACCEPT GOD!! it's the best decision you will ever make....he loves you...and all he wants is your love in return....that's as plain and simple as it gets....accept God! you won't regret it.... -megan elizabeth It SuxPosted on 2007-Sep-17 at 08:19 - 0 Comments - Post Comment - LinkIts really hard you know...i mean doing what God wants...i do my best and i usually make him happy in the end...but sometimes i feel like...i dont have anything... i kno this sounds incredibly lame and so stupid because i have heaven waiting for me so i shouldnt be worried about anything else...but i'm incredibly lonely...the funny thing is no one knows that...that's becase i dont tell people that i am...i am the person people come to with their problems...not the other way around... i'm saying this coming from a bad weekend...friday...i wwent to a rodeo w/ my mom, sis, my moms best friend, her husband, 2 daughters, and her son...my x....well me and andre have starting talking to one another again and i was so happy that we were friends again...then i went to the rodeo and i saw somethin that hurt me deep...its great that he's moved on...i guess...but it's not great when you haven't... it's like i'm scared too death to talk to him...like other than God he would be the only person that i would talk to and 80% of the time i wouldnt be joking i would talk about my bad day or how someone hurt my feelings...but now that he's gone its like i feel like we're not able to talk anymore... i dont know...why i'm writing this...its not like i can tell anyone...its just wwriting down things helps me...its like talking to someone w/o having to worry about judgment from them...you kno? i dont kno what i'm going to do! i love andrew...really i do love him...but he doesnt love me....hmmmm...kinda sux doesn't it? -megan My PurposePosted on 2007-Sep-13 at 08:54 - 0 Comments - Post Comment - LinkThe other day in Health class we were talking about purposes...We were hearing about how most people didnt really understand what their purpose was... Yesterday we were talking about feelings and some how we got on the subject of depression...a illness that i just so happen to have inherited from my half sister, jessica, she's gone now...but we were talking about this and all of a sudden my hand slowly and shakily went into the air...i started to tell my story.... at the end i was letting everyone know that i did not want any simpathy...i wasn't tellin them my secret because i wanted them to feel sorry for me...i told them that to help them...i dont really know all of them that well but i love them either way and if one of them got something out of me telling them what i did then what i have been through is worth it...that's what i do ever since i got saved...i tell people things i normally wouldnt tell them...like talking about my feelings...ask anyone...the only thing that comes out of my mouth is jokes...talking about my feelings was always too serious for me...then i got saved... It was like God was telling me..."Megan...i want you to help these people...plant a seed for me...tell them what i've done for you...Come on Megan..please" and it was like totally annoying because i was and still am very uncomfortable talking about my illness...but i do it anyway to glorify God...you know in my English II class we have these things called Sacred Writings and well one day in the beginning of the year we wrote one called "My Perfect___" we had to fill in the blank...Ms Thompson would play some music and when the music stopped...we stoped...i wrote about my perfect world...it was entirely centered around God...Well Ms Thompson needed volunteers to read their work...i could feel God telling me to raise my hand but i wouldnt do it...i was too scared about what those kids would think...while everyone was loud and joking about who would read i quietly said...in the midst of the noise "I'll read Ms Thompson." everything shut up right then and ms thompson was like "Who said that?" and i slowly raised my hand.... I started to read and as i did i could feel my face turning red and i could feel the hard stares of the others...i could see my hands shaking like leaves in the wind...and i could feel tears starting to form in my eyes....but i kept on reading...when i finished i looked up and everyone was staring at me in awe...they all smiled and started to clap and it made me feel great...but the best reward was knowing that i had done what God wanted me to do... See that's what i was thinking about...my purpose...God has given me a lot of gifts...i'm athletic,i write...i sing...but i never would have guessed that God would use my silly gift of gab to work in His advantage...i never really thought that i was a good speaker...then i started noticing that at lunch when i tell jokes about my life on the farm....people listened....they really listened and they wanted to hear more over and over and over again....i was sitting there thinking to myself...God is so amazing...he knew that this was going to happen long before my grandparents were even born! thats when i knew that my ability to get and keep people's attention would play a huge role in God's plan for me...it may not be that i'm a huge person that people from other country's come to hear me talk...but maybe a Sunday School teacher or something like that...I'm not sure what God has in store for me and i still have time to prepare for whatever he throws my way...but i know whatever God wants me to do...I'll be great at it... -megan elizabeth I dont get itPosted on 2007-Sep-11 at 08:56 - 0 Comments - Post Comment - LinkWhat some of these girls & guys do for "love" or "like"...i just dont get it....i know i talk about some of the most usual and common things and then you read on and i am a complete and total.....surprise... Most people look at me and see this girl...blonde....blue eyes...totally cute...lol *saying thnx to myself!* lol..but then they hear me talk and well...i love to make people laugh, but i also like to have serious talks...okay...now back to what i was talking about...love...i just dont see the point in dating when i'm only 15...okay...14 but my birthday is like in 5 days...but see i have dated like 2 guys my entire life...and well..this is going to sound stupid but just keep in mind that i was really young...but i've only really liked the 1st one...still do...just try not to let anyone know...but see i dated him and broke up with him and then dated him one more time and we broke up again..but that's just bein stupid and young...if i would have known now that i would be feeling this miserable after the fact i would have realized my mistake and fixed it...but like i got these guys (because remember most of my friends are guys) and they are dating girls then dumping them....dating and dumping....dating & dumping....and well you get it...these girls around here put themselves through heck trying to impress their b/fs but whats the point? i mean God made us in his likeness...so we should think we look pretty darn good if we look like what God wanted us to look like...but i understand what "love" or "like" can make people do...i liked this guy..still do and i used to be willing to do anything for him....i still am...but not like anything extreme like cut off my hair cuz i dont kno about y'all but I LOVE MY HAIR!! LOL... What i'm trying to say is for these girls and guys that do extreme things for the person they like dont! if it doesn't glorify God or doesnt' make you happy what's the point? Like andrew...i never stopped having feelings for him..but i'm not going to live and breath that everyday...if it's in God's plan then it is..if not then i'll have to try and get over it...notice i said try... God has someone picked out for me and no matter how much i would love for it to be andrew....i just have to accept God's plan for me...because i kno that it will all work out in the end... -megan elizabeth ps i found these quotes on the net that sorta go along with my situation As soon as forever is through, I'll be over you. ~Toto When love is lost, do not bow your head in sadness; instead keep your head up high and gaze into heaven for that is where your broken heart has been sent to heal. ~Author Unknown Relationships are like glass. Sometimes it's better to leave them broken than try to hurt yourself putting it back together. ~Author Unknown Love is like a puzzle. When you're in love, all the pieces fit but when your heart gets broken, it takes a while to get everything back together. ~Author Unknown Maybe part of loving is learning to let go. Sometimes I wish I were a little kid again, skinned knees are easier to fix than broken hearts. ~Author Unknown God can heal a broken heart, but He has to have all the pieces. ~Author Unknown We must embrace pain and burn it as fuel for our journey. ~Kenji Miyazawa There are things that we don't want to happen but have to accept, things we don't want to know but have to learn, and people we can't live without but have to let go. ~Author Unknown They say that time heals all wounds but all it's done so far is give me more time to think about how much I miss you. ~Ezbeth Wilder

Great VersesPosted on 2007-Sep-6 at 09:10 - 0 Comments - Post Comment - Linki found these verses and i love them! I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, do not stir up or awaken love until it is ready! (Song of Songs 8:4) May you be made strong with all the strength that comes from his glorious power, and may you be prepared to endure everything with patience. (Colossians 1:11) While your obedience is known to all, so that I rejoice over you, I want you to be wise in what is good and guileless in what is evil. (Romans 16:19) The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against such things. (Galatians 5:22-23) Jesus increased in wisdom and in stature, and in divine and human favor. (Luke 3:52) Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity. (1 Timothy 4:12) These are so encouraging and i love them! -megan elizabeth
Why Do They Wanna Talk About Me????Posted on 2007-Sep-6 at 07:58 - 1 Comments - Post Comment - LinkGossip...i hate it. i dont like talking about people because if i point a finger then i'll have at least three pointing right back at me. It's a mess at school. I sit down somewhere and all they do is talk and talk and talk about people. I am a girl so nothing against my fellow "sisters" when i say that it's mostly girls that do the talking, okay i have been around guys that talk about others but not as often. People wonder why i have so many guy friends. I am way more comfortable around them. See, it's only like the 3 or 4th week back in school and there are all ready people talking about me. Do you know how sad I am? It sucks because all i try to do is stay out of other people's way and not get into trouble or start drama....it doesn't work. I have people around here calling me a slut and a drughead and everything else imagineable. I hate it and i just dont want it to bother me....but it does. I know that my case is nowhere near as bad as Jesus had it. he had people talking about him constantly and in the end they killed him because they were just plain blind to his amazing and wonderful love. I just dont get it. I mean i'm a very nice person. at least i like to think i am. I talk to everyone that i see and i'm polite. I mean people tell me that I'm too nice. I just dont understand how someone who doesn't know me...has never met me face to face before in my life could just talk about me and spread mean and hateful rumors. When i say rumors i mean just that as in more than one...like the reason they call me a slut is because i mostly hang out with guys....but like i said thats because i am way more comfortable around them. like okay...here are some not all but some of my guy friends...riley...dakota...dakotah...biscuit...bennett...colton...richard...luis...ben...josh...worm...ju ju...doughboy...david...trey...tyler...james...matthew...will...hunter h....hunter a....lulu...andrew...ray...andy...nathan....dwayne...cody....josh k....trevor....willis lol....derrick...brandon...clint....shannon....ryan....william....craig....jesse....and thats not even all of them....okay now i'll give you a list of almost all my girls that are friends....ariel...lindsay...lynsi...katie....ami...amanda w...amanda s....miranda...hannah r....larae....megan...keira...samantha...jessie....kelly....megan p....shanna....ashley...kelsey...brenda....and thats about it....give or take a couple....look...the reason that they call me those mean things...i have no idea...but i DO NOT DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES flirt with any of my guy friends!!!!!! because that's just wrong...most of those guys are like my brother....they aggravate me like that too....(will & matt & bennett) but my goodness just because i have friends of the opp. sex doesnt mean that i'm doing anything wrong... Mary & Martha...hello...they were friends of Jesus...and guess what people...they were girls! it's just frustrating that i can't be friends with my friends because i'm worried about if people are talking about me....i know i shouldn't be bothered with what they say...but it still hurts you know...all i can do i guess is pray... -megan elizabeth Walk By FaithPosted on 2007-Aug-30 at 08:48 - 0 Comments - Post Comment - LinkIn high school the majority of the students fall into the "cool crowd" it's hard not to get caught up into the whole "high school experience"...to tell the truth i was really caught up in it. i had tons of friends...ppl i didnt even know were and still are calling my name out in the halls and waving w/ big smiles on their faces. i used to cuss up a storm when i got mad and that used to be everyday. i would degrade myself so people would like me...then i realized finally that if these peopel were truly my friend then they would like me if i was goofy or not. i got saved...i started to tell everyone...i bring my Bible everywhere i go. People that i used to be friends with....dont see them so much...i walk the halls and i stare at my feet...not too many people holler my name any more...but you know what...i'm okay with that. I ask the kids on my bus not to use the "GD" word...most of them dont listen...but my friend Katie let it slip out yesterday and it really upset her...she was super sorry that she said it...my friend Richard "white boy" : ) he's a complete supporter of me...and riley b. The bakerman...i love him so much...riley has helped me in so many ways with out even knowing it...riley has shown me a side of him that not too many people get to see. He talks to me about things that encourage me and it really helps that he makes me laugh...but the reason i am saying so many things a bout riley is because he told me something over the summer when i talked to him...i had just gotten attacked verbally on the web by non believers..i guess i was trying to be their light or whatever....he told me he said "megan you have to stand up for what you believe in no matter what. dont be scared. you did what God wanted you to do... you stood up for Him. Dont worry about those ppl...all you need to do is worry aobut your relationship with God. He'll reward you for what you've done." Isn't that a great thing to say? And to think it came from RILEY! i started thinking about that...i've been doing alot of that lately...thinkin i mean...youu know what God wants me to do? he wants me to not worry about what those ppl at skool say...or whatever the world does he wants me to trust in Him. He wants me to put everything down at His feet at the cross and leave it there. He wants me to Walk BY Faith. It takes a lot to just let go of your fears and put all of your trust in someone. I did that with a guy last year...he was so amazing i thought. i put all my trust in him and he hurt me...bad. It's hard to come back from something like that...but i did it. I listened to God and he told me that he would never leave me or forsake me. He would never hurt me. I have to walk by faith even if i cannot see does that sound familiar? thats part of the chorus to Jeremy Camp's song "Walk By Faith" thats what we need to do to grow closer with God. That's what i'm doing better each and everyday. For we walk by faith, not by sight. 2 Corinthians 5:7 -megan Unequally YokedPosted on 2007-Aug-29 at 11:08 - 1 Comments - Post Comment - Linkokay, so what is the big deal on dating? I just dont get it. I know you're going to think i'm completely idiotic when i tell you that i'm currently dating someone. hehe...im sounding hypocritcal to you now huh? well i'm some what in a pickle. lol. this guy...i've known him all of my life. we dated when i was young&dumb...you remember those days...lol..but i wasn't a born again believer that i am now...and he's definitely not....um....walkin the strait and narrow...he dips and i think he smokes...i thought i liked him but just as soon as i accepted his "offer" to "get together" i regreted it...i wasn't doing anything wrong w/ him...but he wasn't the MAN picked out for me BY GOD...in 2 Corinthians it says to NOT be UNEQUALLY YOKED! Well...english pleasse...lol...that basically means that you shouldn't "Get together" with someone who God hasn't picked out for you...God said to put yourself with Christians...its so much easier to stay on the strait and narrow if you're walking alongside some ppl that are also walkin that same path...but if you are constantly around "the other guys" and you start off by trying to "Be the light in the darkness" then insted of your light shining brighter...most of the time it goes pretty dim or out completely....i dont want that... Why settle for a boy...girls...when GOD himself has taken the time to HAND PICK a MAN for you!? Do you know how great that is? At least we know that daddy dearest above won't b pullin out his gun and "cleaning it" when this man that he picked comes around! i know that i want to help my "b/f" but i'm more comfortable right now with just bein..."f" friends...i was talking to him the other nite an i started to go on an on about God and how much i wanted to live for him....i said.."sorry i dont want to sound 'preachy'" and he said "someone needs to preach to me" i dont want to give up on him because he is my friend and that's what i need right now..a friend..not a boyfriend...i just hope that he will be able to understand.... Dont do like me everyone....wait for that PERFECT man/woman that God has picked for you....won't that be great? You'll meet someone that is just right for you and live together and the best part...you won't have to spend money on divorce lawyers because what's there to argue and seperate about...God picked the two of you to be together and in the end...God gets his way! -megan elizabeth |

Jesus, I don't pray much, perhaps, but now I'm needing to talk to you, about me.
