Life's Biggest Questions

WHO? WHERE? WHEN? WHY? HOW? these are the common questions we ask about our lives. WHO exactly are we? WHERE is life taking us? WHEN will we find our prince charming? ( this one's for the girls *winks*) WHY is life so messed up? HOW to deal with life? and to get the answers of these questions, we run directly to *drum roll* Google. I bet some of you do that. like How to Deal with bullies? When is the perfect time? and we click on WikiHow and follow the steps. I gotcha didn't I?
We tend to run to Google without knowing that there is a manual for our life. This book is full of Do and Don'ts that we should and shouldn't do.
It's like a inventor-invention relationship. For example, a hammer. *story time!*
once upon a time there was a lonely hammer. he was in a box for days already. He kept singing who am I? but one day, someone opened the box! he became so happy! at last! so the person got the hammer and start to use it to break the wall. The hammer was unhappy, he felt that it wasn't it's main purpose in life. The inventor suddenly hopped in the situation and said "NO, thats not how you do it!" he got the hammer and a nail and pounded the nail using the hammer; and the hammer was like " you NAILED it!"
see, No one will know the real purpose of the invention except the inventor itself; it goes the same with our lives. there must be someone who invented us, there must be someone who truly knows our purpose in life; and it's no other than our almighty GOD. he sent the book of life, the HOLY BIBLE. The holy bible is the manual in our life. Everything is stated there, from the beginning of life until what is going to happen at the end.


Moral of the Story: We all have areas where we need to come up higher. Perhaps you’ve struggled with a certain area year after year. Instead of getting down on yourself or trying to find solutions on the internet, maybe it’s time to pray and say, “God, I need Your help. I’m asking for Your strength.”
When you humble yourself and admit that you cannot do it on your own, that’s when God can enter the scene. That’s when He can turn it around. A lot of times we think of dependency in a negative light, but dependency on God is not a weakness; it’s a strength. It enables you to tap into His power. When we yield our weakness, that’s when God shows up the strongest. But when we don’t turn to God, really, that’s a sign of pride. We’re saying, “God, I don’t really need You to help me run my life. I’m doing okay. I’ve got it all figured out.” God will step back and let us do it on our own.
Today, what is holding you back? Surrender it to God. Let Him do His perfect work. Find strength in your dependency on Him.

Serious Issues: teenage relationships







When you spend many years with someone you start to plan out your lives together. You start to think of what it would be like to have them as a spouse, what kind of jobs you’ll have, what your children will look like, and what decor you will put in your perfect little house on a hill. Most of these things are just dreaming, not too serious. The bad thing about that is that you hold on to these thoughts. You keep that image in your head of your future together. Yes, they are beautiful thoughts that can bring you up when you’re down. But, when that relationship is broken, you lose that imaginary future as well. In your head, you have built this imaginary life together which is now suddenly shattered. No more marriage, kids, and that house on a hill.

This planning of the future thing is all too common now days. Young people are building lives together that sometimes seem obvious that they will end. Some are moving in, others are having children. Without judging these people realize that every teenage couple has come across these situations whether it be actual or just in thought. It has become the “norm”. “Planning for the future” should be called “growing up too fast” in all actuality.

These thoughts are selfish. There is no way around it. You are building up your mate just to let them down when the inevitable end has come. You set so much into this idea of a perfect future. There is no perfect future in reality (on Earth), but struggle and desire and fear. When it is obvious that this future will never happen, never be complete, you feel as if your entire future has been stripped away from you. You feel like you are left with nothing. Nothing but memories. Save your significant other from the pain. Don’t drag them around with thoughts of a happy home and beautiful kids. Selfish. Respect your heart and your love’s heart. Remember how old you are.

“Try” and any other form of the word is brought up a lot in relationships. “I’m trying,” “I tried,” “At least try.” If I can give anyone who is reading this any advice to take with them, it’s don’t TRY. Settling for anything less than “I will” is not sustainable. Don’t start pointing fingers. You know you do it too. You don’t want to tell your partner that you are trying. Trying is something that lacks. You want to sacrifice for your love. You need to sacrifice for your love. Trying gives you a greater chance to fall back into the pit of failing.

“Change” is another word used a lot in relationships. Either you or your partner is wanting to change or wanting the other to change. I’ve learned that change is a two way street. Don’t even think about expecting them to change if you cannot change yourself. Face it, you are not the saint in the relationship. They are suffering or compromising your faults and you are screaming “CHANGE”? Change first, and change will follow.

Keep your comments to yourself. We all have that one friend who you tell all your relationship drama to. The one who every single time you are together, you relinquish all the crap you and your relationship is going through. Most of the time, face it, you aren’t going through that much crap. It is the toxicity of the conversations or the personality of the friends (and yourself) that is negative. It brings up all of the drama inside you. You have become two faced. You sit with your boyfriend or girlfriend and say, “I love you, we can work on this” then the next minute you are with a friend and say, “I hate him/her. I wish I was single.” Then, the moment of break up, be expected to get, “You weren’t happy anyway, so why are you sad?” Don’t be that. It all goes with respecting yourself and your partner. Would you want them to do that to you?

“And why worry about a speck in your friend’s eye when you have a log in your own? How can you think of saying to your friend, ‘Let me help you get rid of that speck in your eye,’ when you can’t see past the log in your own eye? Hypocrite! First get rid of the log in your own eye; then you will see well enough to deal with the speck in your friend’s eye.” – Mathew 7:3-5

Having that person who was your high school sweetheart, you experience many firsts in each others lives. The memories you make together are something that can never be erased from your mind. When you think of a memory, good or bad, it instantly reminds you of them. Because they were there through it all with you. The places you went, the friends you had, the memories you made will forever be a reminder of them.

I may sound like I've been through a relationship but I have never been in it before. but I was that kind of friend that people run to for their relationship dramas. I know, it hurts Regret is all I can think about. But, without that regret you won't be stronger. Remember, People come and Go; they are either a blessing or a Lesson.Please, if you are in a relationship or will someday in the future, give them the best you can give. Because If you dont it will leave you with nothing.

I know that we are young. We “have our whole lives ahead of each other,” like people try to tell me lately. You wonder why there are so many lines in songs that say something about a high school sweetheart. It’s because it hurts like you can’t even imagine. When you are young you want nothing more than to grow up. Well I am living proof that it does no good to sit and dream about growing up.

Give your love the best of you. Don’t try, don’t beg for change, don’t create an imaginary future, don’t drag or lead them on, don’t keep your issues inside, don’t make them look like a bad person in front of your friends, don’t be embarrassed by them on how they look or act, don’t two-time them, don’t cheat on them – don’t even think about it, don’t lie and don’t settle for anything less than butterflies in your stomach every time you look at them.

Thanks for listening. Thanks for our memories. 


“Love is not rude, it is not self-seeking; it is not easily angered; it keeps no record of wrongs. “ – 1 Corinthians 13:5

Life Lessons





Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there. They serve some sort of Purpose, teach you a lesson or help you figure out who you are or who you want to be.  You never know who these people may be; your classmate, your neighbor, teacher, long lost friend, lover or even a complete stranger who when you lock eyes with them, you know that very moment that they will affect your life in some profound way. And sometimes things happen to you and at that time they seem horrible, painful and unfair but in reflection you realize that without overcoming those obstacles you would never have realized your potential and strength. Everything Happens for a reason. Nothing happens by chance, accident or by means of good or bad luck. Illness, Heartbreaks , injury, love, lost moments or true greatness and sheer stupidity all occurs to test the limits of the soul. Without these small tests, life would be dull and pointless. The persons that you will meet will affect you life and successes and downfalls you will experience, they are the ones who create who you are. Even the bad experiences can be learned from, those lessons are the hardest. and probably the most important ones are if someone hurts you, betrays you or breaks your heart, forgive them, for they have taught you about trust and the importance of being cautious to whom you open your heart. and don't worry about revenge, leave it all to god, and god will punish them at the right time. If someone loves you, love them back unconditionally, not only because they love you, but because they are teaching you to love and opening your heart and eyes to things that you have never seen or felt without them. Make everyday count. appreciate every moment for you will never be able to experience them again. Talk to people you have never talked to before and listen, let yourself fall in love and break free. Create your own life and go out and live it, but start it in the name of God and know that he is always there. I wish you all the best in your ups as well as your downs in life. have a fighting spirit and dont hesitate to get back in the struggle!

words I would say to you

" For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope." jeremiah 29:11







No matter what is may be happening today or tomorrow, remember that God has always good things in store for your future! He never said it would be easy, and it will never be easy, but he has already lined up a new beginning, new relationships and new doors opened for you.
Maybe you've experienced some ups and downs, but dont make the mistake of expecting the same for your future. always keep in mind that God always have good plans for your life. our attitude should always be like someone who never worries. God is walking before you, he has set everything, he chose you before the world was even created. why worry when you have GOD?

God doesn’t want you to go through life constantly struggling, always burdened down, or always fighting against something. Yes, we know that trials will come in this earthly life, which makes us depressed. There may be some seasons that are more difficult than others; where you have lost all hope but, we can’t just settle where we are and accept that it’s always going to be this way. Stand up, stay strong and know that the Father will always be there. He wants to lead you to a good land with no shortage and no lack. He wants to cause you to remain in His provision and blessing. The key is that when difficulty comes, instead of focusing on where you are, instead of dwelling on how things won’t work, turn your focus toward Him. Lift up your eyes to heaven. Cast your cares on the Lord. Don’t let the heaviness of the world drag you down. Put your faith and hope in Him knowing that He has good things in store for your future. Keep praying, keep believing and keep trusting because His yoke is easy, His burden is light, and He’s leading you into your promised land!

so, today, be encouraged and never give up on your tomorrows. Accept good plan God has for you; a plan filled with Hope, Purpose, and blessing.
