The things I encounter in a weeks time may seem minor and minuet to most people. I am considered blessed among the nations, because every day I have food to eat [even if I don't eat it], I have a warm place to live, clothes for my back, and a Christian Academy to attend. I am encouraged everyday to speak freely and openly about God. I know that in some countries, there are punishments for this kind of Behavior, and yet , you guys still risk your lives to love and share God, And for that I want to say THANKS!
I have a friend, whom I will call Dove. She is a beautiful, fun girl. My best friend. But you see, lately I had gotten disappointed in her, she changed, and not for the better. When she was around other girls, her attitude towards me changed. I was an Outcast. A Slum. I was no longer "good enough" for her or so I felt, because every time I would try to hang with her other friends, or talk to them, I would get pushed away. I longed for a while to talk to my friend Ticket about this. Mebbe he could find out what was going on with Dove.
I forced myself to not rely on others, like Ticket, I would rely on God. Then I realized, this is how God feels for us. When we are at church, we hang out with God so freely and open. But is it possible, that when we hang around people who are not so familiar with our best friend God, we loose interest in him also? We completely ignore him, and walk away, just as Dove had done to me. There was no way I could be upset at Dove, for I was doing the exact same thing to God!
Life cannot be lived by simply walking through it. You must purpose inside you to DO something! Share God's love, further HIS Heavenly Kingdom! Be God's best friend...And do not be afraid to share his love with others. Keep old friends, and make new ones, but don't let them Go. Everyone is perfect in God's eyes, and I am praying to see everyone in that way to.
God is not your friend because he needs you. Its because We need HIM!
DEAR Jesus:
We Will Glorify You. Through Fire, Through Hate, Through UPS and Downs. WE PRAY. AMEN.
Your found child,

Tonights HEART'S Cry
Things that people go through = Emotion. temptation. stress. hurt. Worthlessness
Things that God can save us from = Emotion. temptation. stress. hurt. Worthlessness
Do you see a pattern? I am personally going through a dry time, a time where God doesnt seem as real as normal. Its hard to imagine a loving father, someone who is so close by, waiting for his child to cry out for help. Its hard to know that he's actually there. Why would a God who loves us and created us, allow us to go through so much hurt? So much pain? So much trial.?! Why wouldnt he just come out and hold me tight and show me he is real, because millions of people every day struggle, and make the life changing decision to either kill themselves, or reject God complelty. Doesn't God see that we are hurting? Can't he see we feel worthless, and hatred? Can't he tell we need love and to feel him? We feel all alone..
Those are my thoughts. but they are not right. We cannot focus on how we can not feel God, we have ot focus on moving towards Him. I know i scream out ot God and ask him why he's not hear. but we have to be willing to move forward, take a step towards God and he will run to you. YOu must be faithful in living, and proclaiming his word. There truly is nothing you can do to make God love you any more or any less, because God loves you so much right now. BUt theres somthing special about God. HE gave us self choice, will, our own way if you please. He gave us the chance to choose right and wrong, to choose Him or Evil. Its true, God loves oyu, but he does not want a bunch of people who HAVE to worship him...he wants peole who WANT to worship him, see the differce? Slaves HAVE to work, Servants GET to work, we are the hands and feet of Christ, we are his Servants. If we choose to love God and further his kingdom, he will feel like he's always there. SO dont give up hope.
God Loves You,
Even when you dont think so.
God has not left you.
Its a lie, a lie your beliveing.
God Wants you.
GOd made you
Give your heart ot God
Feel his tears on your face.
God is waiting for you.
BUt he will not force you,
YOu can only serve one master,
WHo Will It Be?
God Loves You,
Even when you dont think so.
God has not left you.
Its a lie, a lie your beliveing.
God Wants you.
As i repeat this, i pray
DEAR GOD:
Please heal every wounded heart that reads this. Please heal mine, as much as the otehres. LOrd we are all broken, were torn, were weak, and were done being nothing. We take our step towards you God, please, please help us. Forgive us, Lord.

Stop{Listen[cry]}
Do you ever just close your eyes, take a deep breath, and think....Everything is fine?
Do you ever just take a second to glance around you and think..... This is all there is?
Do you ever stop and listen for a tiny small voice, that will lead you on to greater things?
Well, miracle of all miracles, I stopped and listened. A tiny voice inside me said, go the speed limit...repeatedly over and over, and so I did, I slowed my car to a mere speed and drove along. Shortly after a song by the artist Plumb came onto the radio waves. It ended right as I drove into my home-area, and I felt tears fill my eyes. Which was incredible, simply because I drove the right speed which intern gave me the right amount of time to hear the one song that I needed right then and there. God bless to all. And in the future, anything that happens out of YOUR plan, think of what lies ahead in GOD's plan...I guarantee you it is much greater than any of your plans combined. Eternity with God is always BETTER then earthy things that will pass away.
Dear God:
Thank you for a lesson today, and for patience to listen, please allow us all to have patience with you and your plan.

I gave it away [to GOD]!
Giving it to God. Sounds easy, right?
Sure... I give you this, you give me that, everything works out. Handy-dandy Perfectly-swell.
Wrong. That's not how it goes.
Right now, I myself am faced with a decision. Do I Forgive and Forget. Or do I dig for closure, and potentially face rejection? Am I suppose to sit back, and watch myself fade away, to please another? Or Stand up and initiate a conversation, that would help us both?
Questions. Questions that may never be answered. Questions that I have no clue how to find the answer except for one thing, Give IT To God.
~~~
I walked out into a narrowed field. Distance as far as my eyes would allow my sight to see. Wind with the crisp flow, and sunshine that was unpecibaly planned by the Heavenly Father. I crotched low into the ever-growing ness and sat still, as I cried out to God. I couldn't decide what to do. I couldn't choose. So I cried out, and Gave it to God. the Peace that rushed over me, the knowing that God would handle it all and take care of it for me, it was brilliant. Brighter then the sun. I looked to the sky and silently thanked him for his Kind mercy. I realized All my 'questions' are nothing but sand to God. He knows them all, and he Knows and UNDERSTANDS the Answers. and that's more then I could have asked. I know that within the next few days, God will Provide an Answer for all my Questions. But only because I gave them to HIM. And I no longer am holding onto them.
Dear God: THANK YOU!

The Girl's first Crush(ed heart.)
Every little girl has a big crush, sometime or another. whether it be when there 5 years old, or 18 years old. They see a nice guy, and lody dottie dah...you know how it goes, I'm sure.
I know what that little crushy feeling is like, like your on top of the world, belive me, it happened to me, a long while ago. I am hear to tell every little or old girl this, so if you have young kids, feel free to share this with them.
First: My Story
There was a guy, obviously, we will call him Cape. Now Cape was one of those guys that, you know, everyone liked. and as I grew older I realized my crush was juvenile, it took me a while to get over it but eventually by my freshman year, it was gone. And I was glad of it... Cape soon acquired somewhat of a girlfriend, who now they are currently very happy together. And I realized, if God wanted me to be with him,,,it would have happened. and although I struggled with it for a while, I finally decided, God's plan is so much bigger and better then my own plan.
Second: The Moral
All you girls with crushes, don't let that be the break of your heart, I know you feel in love, and like you want to marry this guy, or however you feel but truth is, Give it to God. He will provide you with who he want s you to be with. his plan is so much bigger and better then yours. Don't allow your heart to be broken, by this boy, Wait on God. Be Patient. My heart was crushed in a sense, but it makes me so glad, to see the one person I did care about, so happy. Cape and his girl, Cod are so thrilled with each other...and I couldn't have asked for anything better. You see, instead of having a deep crush on him, I gave it to God, and he allowed me to have a deep caring, and there will always be a place in my heart for Cape, but just not in the way of jealousy for him and Cod, but gladness, and friendship, Do you understand? I sure hope you do. God will show me my future spouse when the timing is right. and if it is God's plan for me to be a lone maid...then I will do it with a smile on my face, and never be married, but I will do it all with Gladness, Because truthfully the only thing that matters in this life, is that we love and serve God, we spread his word, we make a better eternal Kingdom, and don't worry about our earthly one. I believe there is no Marriage in heaven. If any person in the world reading this attended the Secret Church that was also an Online Live Cast, you will know what I am talking about, a good point was made, there's no marriage in heaven, so why are we dishing out our feelings and pouring them into simple crushes? if God wants us to marry someone, he will prompt you, he will tell you this is the person, you must be so in tune with God that you will hear him, and feel it inside you, and you must be so in tune with God that even if you never get married, your completely fine with that. And that's not just speaking for little Girls, But the boys as well. Pray and ask God. Give it to him, and he will give it back, but according to his plan..
Dear God: I pray for all my brothers and sisters of Christ reading this, that they may understand, the greatest relationship, is with you...and in this life, That is all that matters. If you call us to marry one another, we will, if you call us to Stay single, we will, But Lord, help us not to pour our feelings to one another if it is not your will.
Your Loved Child,

Precious Faith[fulness].
Faith is a precious thing. Something that seems like it comes and goes, but the truth is, it is always with you. I am not talking about Faith, like which belief belongs to you [Christian, Mennonite, Baptiste, Non-denominational, Jewish..etc...] I am talking about Faith in the Unknown,
Faith in things you Cannot see,
Faith is something BIGGER!...
And Faith in the little things,
the things that feel like they don't matter to others, but they do to you. Some days you just need Faith to get through the day, to believe that You alone, are not strong enough, but God is.
Faith is a beautiful thing that turns into Trust.
And trust, turns into friendship,
And Friendship, into anything imaginable.
This world needs more people becoming friends instead of enemies...but that's a completely different subject. I mostly want to touch on what its like to feel like your going under, going down, hitting rock bottom, and feeling like you cant get picked up again, little do some people realize when your Not strong enough to stand back up, God is there to grab your hand and help you through the rest, just that tiny bit of Faith takes you galaxies beyond your wildest dreams. And its so hard to believe there's a God, simply because you cannot see him, and so many times it feels like he is not there, but that's just your Faith wavering, not God. Because Truth be told, God is. He is the I AM. He is always there, but having enough faith can be a struggle.
As many [or few, since I don't have a lot of readers] know, my Faith has waivered more than once. But God never did, Its like this...
Abused as a child, a young girl grew up, thinking that in life, there is no such thing as a "Safe Home". Being physically, verbally and emotionally abused by her mother, the girl began to believe, that all Mom's were bad, all homes were bad, there was no good one, and if there was, she would never find it. The sad girl needed faith, and had faith, on the good days, but when it started to get badder and worse, her faith waviered, when her mom started punching her, biting, slapping, bashing, badmouthing, and completely beating her up, she felt like God had left her, but the truth is, he was there, I mean, she's still alive, isn't she? God was there to protect her from dying, But what the girl had not seen was what Could have Been, instead, she saw what was. Brutally hurt inside and out, she felt like God had let that happen to her...but in all reality, the spiritual realm that we cannot see, was going on, a battle between Good and Evil was taking place, and Good prevailed, because God allowed her to stay alive, and bring Glory all through that.
Just like the child, when bad things happen to us, we loose faith, but just think. God is God, he could have allowed anything to happen to you, but he protected you form the worst.
My Friend Ticket once told me, God will never give you more than you can handle. And that is So much Truth packed into one tiny Phrase.
So next time someone throws a stone at you, ad breaks your bone, Remember, God is holding back the Avalanche.
Dear God; Thank you that we can have Faith in you and believe even when Push comes to shove. Please Bless all who read this, and show them your unfailing Love and Faithfulness.

World On PAUSE.
I love Poetry. So I wrote this Poem\Song. But so many times, When I read song Lyrics or Poem's It doesn't seem there's a meaning, So I wrote in Parenthesis ( )< in these things.... The meaning to each line...The last to Lines are blank, Simply because they take YOUR Own Meaning, I cannot write down what they mean, Your heart must find what they mean....So read through the Left side once by itself, Then Go Again, with the right side included. Feel free to Show others, But Copyright does Belong to me. Safe Promises. I hope it was Life Changing.
World on PAUSE.
By Safe Promises
Here we go, once again, (Endless days, that always repeat themselves)
Around in this big world. (This Universe is bigger than we know)
I'm stuck inside this Circular Plane, (The Earth, Were literally stuck.)
That once was called my Home.( I now have a home in Heaven)
The Air is getting thicker, (I'm crying so much, I cant breathe)
As I fall down from the sky. (What my thoughts tell me to do)
My thoughts, Once captivated, (My thoughts no longer control me)
Now Mumble up inside. (But I cant find the words to speak)
I see no way of escape, (I fell stuck, no one to talk to)
As I slip and squeal and slide. (I'm holding all inside)
A heart, Once whole and Lovely, ( The heart I should have)
Now Broken, and bruised inside , (The heart I do have)
A Voice, Once Loud with Humor, (My own Natural self)
Now remorse with Pain and Groan, (No longer how it was)
A tear, Once clear and clean, (My pure cry's to God)
Now Crimson and Stained it be, (My Vain Cry's to God)
The Cry of a Voice, (Me)
Without any Noise, (I keep it inside)
The World that once began. (The first day of Creation)
The words that swim about each day, (Every word spoken since then)
The torn and trials they bring, (Peoples harmful words)
And once again, (Here we go again [Another day])
It comes to an end, (The world will come to an end)
As we forgetfully plea.(Were begging God, but we don't know why)
Here We Go, Once Again, (Here we go again....)
But take no time to think, (We pass our days by)
The guilt and Pain, (That is Me)
Could be no more, (God can take it away)
But little do we try, (We just pass our day's by [Another Day])
The Artisan of this World, (God Created This World)
Is There when We want to cry, (We CAN cry to him)
But Time, AND Time again, (Another day...Another day.. Its been about a year now)
We cross our T's (Same Old....)
and Dot our I's, (....Same old)
but never stop to Blink, (Were STILL to busy)
I am finished with this life (That doesn't mean I'm dying)
Time stands still, but I do not, (I will live every second For GOD)
Until My Roll-Model takes Me home. (God's my favorite Artist)
Here you go again,(Look at what your doing)
But My time on earth is at end. (I do TO belong to the earth)
I walk this Circle (I walk this earth)
That I called my Home (I still live here)
But my Heart is now,
Where it belongs

Dear God: Love Them.

Someone Love you [Even when(YOU) Don't think so]
So as many of you know I was gone for a while, Helping out in the States. And as I have just now found time to write, I have one thing only on my mind. Suicide. No, No, NOT me committing it, oh please, do Not take it the wrong way, my though is of all those who have THOUGHT about it. AND who have Done it. Un-helpless amounts of joking about it wen ton where I was, and I happened to meet 3 or 4 individuals who had been contemplating it. and I know this is a sketchy matter on my part, but I feel like somehow, we all need to know that we all have a purpose in life. and that we cannot throw it away because of lonely-ness or sense of rejection. and the important thing is, more people then not have been through that...I had no clue how many stories there were. But God put us here on Earth for a reason, he gives You a choice for a reason, He has a plan for you. God has a plan for YOU! Oh Wowzer....re-read that just to sink it into your head because I know when I was feeling sad and depressed that though washed over my mind without a blink....I didn't care, but I do now, because I see what people are going through, iv been there, done that, its not cool. When you feel like your all alone and God's given up, that does not give you any reason to give up. I have a cousin who looks great on the outside but on the inside, he's hurting, he's lost, he's throwing his life away with drugs and alcohol, and for what? pleasures? does he not understand that God set him here Specifically for a reason, and purpose, as he's done with all of us, and if we don't follow God's will who will? Not our next door neighbors, they all have there own plans! God Loves you, even when you don't think so, and when you cant feel him, it gives you every reason in the world to die, because what's living without God? What's life without Christ? That was my heart Question. And an answer is ... Nothing. A Person Who Dies Without Being Born Again and Having Christ In there HEART. Is Like a Person Committing Suicide. One Sin, Is the Same as The Other. Lying, same as Murder. Stealing same as Adultry, and the list goes on.............But its not me who will or can convict you, its God, The Holy Spirit, so I pray he will. Turn your life around and Run for God. "Take a lead towards God, and he will Run after You"....You know why? BECAUSE HE IS JEALOUS FOR....you.
Dear God: Save these people, these lost souls, I was there and you saved me, Show yourself to them. Help them see worth, beauty, love and LIFE.

Is IT?
You stand at the top of a mountain. You swim in the bottom of the sea. You march across the desert, or climb up in a tree. And you may think, look at this. Look at where i am. What an accomplishment. but really think when you get to Heaven, what will you think then? Will yo Heaven think? OR Speak? What will it be like. I'd love to hear your comments and thoughts on this subject, i may just use them in my Next Book or Blog. Please feel free to message me

My (God's for me) Journey into the WORLD.
Recently I flew into a rather big City. It was night as the plane landed somewhere in the U.S. and the city lights glowed elated. The roar of the engine died as the plane polished the surface of the cemented landing stripe. With a slight jolt, and minutes waited, we were instructed to gather our belongings and head gradually our the door. Reality hit when I realized, yes, I am in the U.S.... I am in one of the many States.... And an even bigger thought. I am in the world, I am on Earth! The earth is 3,959 miles in Radius. In 2011 the population of earth was 6.974 billion People. Huge, Huh?....Now think of this. That is just one planet. Of course none of the other planets have humans on them...but there still are, what?...8 or 9 other planets? and over half of those are numerous times bigger than earth. Now think with me.... Me...Safe Promises.....Me....A Child Of GOD....Was standing on U.S. soil... and I am one in over 6 billion people, yet God has given ME the opportunity to go to one of the U.S. States and spread his love. Who Am I, a child who is small, in this Gigantic world? Who Am I to make a difference? In this Dark Place. This place that Has Miles upon Miles, of valleys and hills and roads and mountains and seas and Who Am I to deny God, when He's the one who made all that. I am an Ant Compared to an Elephant in this universe. I have no say in where I go, and what I do, and if I take a breath the next second of my life. That is all God's doing. But then what is my job?...as an Ant? What is your job?...as an Ant? To listen, to follow, to Hear God and do what his is telling you . Because its true, YOU cannot make a difference in this world.....It has to be God in you! If your willing God will use YOU to Change the world, and that thought alone in un-apprehensive because of its miraculous meaning!
I felt tiny in that air-port...and then?...I reached down, picked up a piece of trash, got a few interesting looks...and Started to make a difference...One act of kindness can spark up a conversation, and start an on-fire Love for God in someone else's Life. I encourage you all to try it. One tiny difference in this Enormous World. Pick up trash. Hand out food. Talk to someone. Be Kind. Be Jesus, to the least of these... Praise God even if your the only one. All hat matters in this world....is GOD. Why wait to share him? Why not GO. That's what I did. I went. Caught a Plane. Shared God. an now I'm home. But that won't stop me. My Friends, My family, Co-Workers, and Acquaintances, even Strangers, cold always use some encouragement. My goal is to start The Innocence Project...a sketchy Idea with a big plan...As long as it's GOD'S WILL.
Dear God: We want to make a difference. We want to share your word. We feel so small and inadequate. But if you have chosen us, you will pull us through. Nothings more then we can handle, and if that means being burnt at a stake, or getting glares at an Airport, I will follow, I will Obey, and when I start to fall.....You have promised...You Will Catch Me! And I want to say Thanks! And for all the times I have Denied you, Blasphemed you and Rejected....My heart goes out to you, as my Voice utters the words, "I am Sorry, Please Forgive Me."
With Love,
Your Diminutive Child, Safe Promises.

(UN)thinkable- UN-Speakable
Where do I start. I have lots on my mind and nothing seems to get it out. Its like, have you ever known that one person, who sits in a group, but says nothing? That one person who, when you ask them what their thinking, they ignore you because they themselves cannot explain it. No matter how much you nudge them, they shake you off and change the subject, and you just want to dig deeper and understand their thoughts. Yes, my mind is like that right now, but something tells me I must get this out into the open. People must hear. If only my mind had a voice of its own...oh wait...it does.... My mouth.
There's this song, by the incredible artist Plumb. The words say, how every body has a story to tell, and everybody has a wound to heal. How we get so tired of holding on, and we cant let go, we cant move on. How were trying to hear his small voice, but how the noise of this life is captivating our every move. We call out "God I need you now," and no matter how much we want to believe there's meaning, we struggle to find the strength to carry on. My friend Ticket brought this song to my attention one night. And if you truly listen to the words, its not a song at all, it is a prayer, a cry, its the mind of someone. Just how that person in the crowd cannot explain what their thinking, this song is like the thoughts of so many. Of course, I am not saying everyone thinks the same way, in fact probably no-one else in the world has ever has this particular thought, but its the way that it is put out there, the way it is written, and if you have never had yourself a deep thought, then you will be completely lost in what I am trying to say.
When I have so much on my mind, I write, when im around others, I draw, I draw my mind onto the paper, no one else understands it, because its all abstract and such, but I get it.
Right now, I am not getting out what I want to say. What I want to say is, so many people in this tinyly-huge world and hurt and struggling and calling out. Just listen to that song its full of sorrow! We as Christians are like that to, but the difference between us and others is we have God to lean on! Now, im not gonna sit back and take all that junk people give others! I want to step up and speak my mind! I want to tell people that just because there lost doesn't mean they can be found! God can do anything right? I mean, he could even convert Satan into a fellow belive and Christian, Couldn't he? God almighty! Strong and Power ful! And then theres us who and hurt and broken and torn from things of this earth when all we need is to lean on God! If any of you out there knows that one guy or girl in the crowd that doesnet speak. That just thinks. I have advice. Do Not push it out of them. but dig deep into their life. How to dig deep? I guess i'll have to have another blog about that. Pray for them. Maybe ask to pray with them. Encourage them, I bet over half of those "thinkers" are amazing writers, and creative artists....They have to be! Speak life into them! Sometimes it takes a push, and then they'll cave and tell you all. But When you push them into telling you their thoughts, the thoughts that have no way of being voiced, At least 75% of people who sit back and observe and think quietly to themselves will reject and push you away if you try to hard, because they cant deliver to you what you want. They cant voice out loud all there "Thoughts". I m sorry if you don't understand. This is why I don't speak of this subject ofter. If your as into this subject as I am, leave a comment....or E-Mail at SafelyChoosen@gmail.com
Dear God. Give me the words to speak. and let this Nation See you as a light in this Darkness!

Tick-Tock(You waisting the clock...)
TIME. One word that will not exist in the next life. One word that God merely invented for us on EARTH, but has no value in HEAVEN. Why can't we live like there's no time on earth? why cant we live life to the fullest each day, instead of post-ponning until another "time"?
I had a small explosion of a fight with one of my friends a while back. and although we haven't necessarily talked in a few months, I feel like im wasting time. Why can't I suck it up and make things right between us? I only have as many days left on this Earth as God allows me to Have. and I should be making a difference in peoples lives instead of arguing and loosing friends. Its not my place to judge people, just like its no ones place to judge me. but it is my place to share with others about God's Love. Even if I don't fully understand it. Even if I fall away from it and begin to doubt sometimes. no matter what I think, I have to share to others about God. that is my job. That is Your job. That is all of our jobs. but so often time gets in the way. "Times are changing" people say. "Were to busy". "Mebbe next week". But it cant wait.
Recently I traveled outside my homeland with some fellow friends. Were shared God's love to others and tried to make a difference in the dark lands. And I think....and I thought.....Well, this is not a complete thought but, Every minute we waste not talking to someone, not improving our attitude, not impacting a human being, for every minute we spend goofing off.....there goes another human......there lies another hopless soul, condemned to a not so nice place, and he's gone. dead. lifeless. and we could have saved him. Me and my friends were not taking work that seriously and I later thought.....I just waisted my day. I have the best chance to reach out, but instead I made up lame jokes and non-memerible memories with my friends, but for what? to make me feel good? when I get to HEAVEN, will that matter? NO. I JUST WAISTED THE TIME I HAD! and im waisting time right now, typing up this page that no one will read, but its not waisted time in my eyes, if even one person read this and takes it to heart to start actually living life, to dig deeper in friends lifes to help them, to dig deeper in strangers lives to help them, to show God's love, if just one person starts doing that, and another catches on, and another..... it can change the world. and it is a waist if you are reading this right now and do not plan to invest in others lives....if you plan to go off and be a "cool stud", or a "beauty queen" and have no purpose behind that....well im sorry but your waisting the time God so graciously gave you.
Dear God: Help me use my time wisly. Give me the courge to invest into others lives, that they might know you. Give me peace with my friend that I waisted time fighting with. and allow this world to KNOW YOU! I pray this in your TIMING. Your promised child -Safe Promises

The Planets in the earths sky are the most mesmerising thing i have ever set my eyes upon. They are a true mystery, and a marvelously intriguing subject. Breathtaking. Glorious. Superb. Jaw-dropping. Flabbergasting!
The Beauty of this! and to think God created it in only how many days?.........AMAZING! |

The Merry-Go-Round of OUR Lives. (30sec. Think about.)
"Swoosh....Swoosh".....Twice around......and it starts slowing down.
"Clinkedy, Clink"...Four more quarters get pushed into the holder, and......
"Whoosh," there it goes again....
That. Is. A. Merry-Go-Round. And...That is OUR life.
...........................................................................
"I Love You Jesus......I Love You Jesus"......Two Weeks later...and we start slowing down...
"Go to Church, Read My Bible, Pretend I'm happy, Pray to God"...Four more things i do that i tell myself will be enough...
"I love you Jesus".....and off i go again.....But i don't mean it. I say it. But Never mean it. I do it, and i do it over and over. Just like a merry-go-round repeats itself again and again. ....and I'm not saying Merry-go-Rounds are evil, but they are the perfect example for our Walk with Christ.
We need to get off of Life's Merry-Go-Round effect, with all the lights and Gilimore, and all the pretty Horses, and Entertainment and get on God's Hand. He promises to hold us, so if your afraid of heights, you have no excuse. You see we go through life, thinking we are right. But looking deeper is what you need to do. Ask yourself. Am i repeating myself? What have i done in the last Week that will have Long-team Effect?.........Right now my answer is NOTHING. I have not talked to or brought one person to Christ within the last week....not even that last Month!.......I am on a merry-go-round. You, my friend, are on a Merry-Go-Round. and God is offering his hand but were to caught up to take it....WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?
My Friend Ticket told me once, "His (God's) Creation is Evil...and yet, he never leaves us....although we deserve to rot." How true is that! Even when you and Me are going around is this sinful world, being sinners, and half-way living our lives as Christians, God is still there, waiting for each of his wicked Children to be asked to be washed pure again. He waits, Holding out his had, ready to Take us in and Love US! AND WE CAN'T EVEN GO SHARE THAT WITH OTHERS!? WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE! God owes Us NOTHING.....We Owe God Everything, and although We can never pay him back....We CAN Love him! And throw out anything and Everything that Disrespects him, and Show others....There Still are Children in this World that Love God! DEAR GOD: HELP ME MAKE A DIFFENCE IN THIS WORLD, AND GET OFF OF MY DAILY MERRY-GO-ROUND!~The child whose heart has broken for you.-Safe Promises

Windsheild of (My Heart)...
Driving along a country road, fresh rain, mud, pot holes. bump. your car hits one. then another. Splash! A muddy windshield..... Windshield wipers going on. Smears the mud. Crash! You can't see where your headed. That is our hearts. So covered in the muck, and grim of the world that no one can truly see us for who we are. Then, you look to tee right. Your window sits untouched. Crystal Clear. No Mud. No Dirt. No water. and you think....... This looks like my heart after i asked Jesus into my life, He washed my white as snow.... But then you turn your eyes away from him, and you fall into bad habits....and you get MUCKY again.
What we all need as Christians is a Spiritual Car Wash. To clean our hearts. and not just the outside, but the inside to! Think about it.... How many R rated movies have you watched within the last Month? How about PG-13? or even just PG?......and you think "Well, its not THAT bad...i mean i saw this movie just the other night and this one is better than that.... and well, Its not like I'm ever gonna Kill someone, like they do in this movie, or I'm never gonna do THAT bad thing...I think its fine if i watch it...just as long as no one finds out." Now, Think about it, When Christ returns.........and he re-plays your life....when he looks back at the things you've done... What do you think his response will be? "Child, Enter my gates, My good Servant!", or "Away from me! I Never Knew you"
Are you honoring God by even watching movies?.Are you honoring God by Cheating on Tests? By Swearing? By reading Fancy Books? By Eating? BY Breathing? BY SINGING?...The things you listen to? Where is this putting your heart?....Instead of being worried about doing something wrong, and people finding out.. You should be worried about IF IT HONORS GOD! When Jesus comes back...NON OF THIS WILL MATTER, except for the part where you Love and Serve God... Are you inviting People into his Kingdom? Are you sharing Gods WORD! Or are you wasting the precious time God gave you, and watching useless Movies about Love and Death!? Are you filling your heard with Bad thoughts and UN Holy things?! or are you putting your life out there every day to Give GOD your best!..
Even if you are a Young kid in High-school......In all your School work you do, honor God!..Do your best for him!...Don't be a bully, talk to the left out kids, pray with the hurting, Minister to the lost, be an example!
The High-up worker, that is the Head producer of Gummy-bears or whatnot.....Be a loving boss, in everything you do, show other around you God! and when you get home at night, spend your time Reading God's word, preparing yourself for his ministry he has for you, Don't go fill your head with non-sense, and silly things that will only ruin you! Does no one understand! Nothing matters except for CHRIST! EVERYHTING IN THIS WORLD IS MAN MADE, everything of this world will be demolished in the end days! and if we dint start spreading God's word!...then All those who never heard, and all those who don't believe will be cast away! FOREVER AND EVER! if you think 100 years is a long time.... THINK ABOUT ETERNITY!!!!!!!!!!!! My heart cannot express it enough! PEOPLE OF THE WORLD!
Dear God: Help Everybody realize, Time is precious, Life is precious, You are precious. If we don't start a Revival Now..Then when will we? Help us all to get up out of the Dark and be Crazy for you! Let Us be the Hands and Feet....And as WE WALK THE EARTH...Please, Lord, Guide US!

Smile and Wave...
I am the kind of person that loves to listen to people talk. I love getting included into conversations, and i love it when even if i don't know what to say they keep talking to me anyways....no awkward silences. But sometimes in life i find myself just simply Smiling and waving...never stopping to start a conversation with anyone else. i realized...if every one would smile and wave and no one had ever stopped and chatted with me...i would have never come to know Jesus. Although every now and then i may be sketchy about the whole thing...one thing i know for sure is that true Godly people do Not Smile and Wave....well, sure they do in the physical tense but Not in the Spiritual. Instead of putting on a blank front and pretending to be something that they are not, they get to the point...they are so in tune, so in love with God, that they look AND Act the part with His help! how amazing! They are like those very talkative people, they know what to say, and they say it...instead of people like me... i shy back, i am a waver...i smile at them when words don't come... but i have learned, if you trust in God and are willing to follow him to the ends of the Earth, then he will provide opportunities AND Words for you to say...no more waving and smiling... just Stopping and Talking
My friend Ticket is probably one of the best stopper and talkers i have ever known. Although i am sure he gets very nervous and scared when he talks to Others about God, but when he talks to me about God i feel God's love pour out of him. its so amazing. Its like God is his best friend, and i wonder how can that be? I want to know God as much as Ticket knows God. Wouldn't that be amazing?...to just be able to stop and talk to people about this amazing God, and have such passion for him that it comes out when others are in need. I asked Ticket "Why do you still believe in God?" and he responded in such a way as, "Because He is True. There is nothing that disproves it, Evidence is so strong that He exists...." and that stuck me, "Because He is True." Ticket then told me, "If you believe and trust in God with everything, He will take care of you." and that struck me also! Those words...as if God put them in his mouth! He will take care of you, because he is True! He is Truth! God never Lies! He IS TRUE!!! Brain fart right there...unless you've experienced it, i don't know how else to explain it! but just the realization that no matter What you do on earth...God will always Love you, He will always take you back, he will always hold YOU in His HAND! Because He is True, Real, Truth, Love, Omega, Alpha,Beginning and the End, he is Peace, he is Joy, Hope, Everything you may need He is waiting there for you...Stopped dead in his tracks waiting to Talk to YOU...He is not just smiling and waving waiting for you to pass by...He wants YOU!! AMAZING!
Dear God, I am so Amazed at how much you want me...I want you also! Show me how to draw closer to you...to not just Smile and Wave...BUT TO STOP AND TALK!!!~ Your looking Child~

His Strong Hands....Holding me ME!
Sometimes in Hard time we see God best. Sometimes in wonderful times, God shines through brightly. The truth is God is always there, whether you don't feel him, or i don't feel him. He Is Always There. His Hand is ALWAYS Holding YOU! Which is SO Totally Mind blowing because then you get into the question of How in the World can God be EVERYWHERE and be holding EVERYONE??! But i guess a simple Logical answer would be, simply because He is Awesome. But I didn't always think that way. Sure, all my friends and family talk about how awesome God is, but i never quite grasped the part where 'Awesome' does Not define God...He is so much more than that! As my friend, Ticket once told me, "God will never leave you, no matter how much you show you don't want him." God is waiting for you. He wants you to take that first little step towards him, and then he will start running towards you. He longs for his Children to love him, to rely on him, to give Everything to Him, for He is the one who created them!
I sometimes am a clumsy child, but as i fell down one time, Ticket reached down to help me up. As i grabbed onto his hand, i thought about how God is there to Always pick us up when we fall. Either, Spiritually, or Mentally, and even Physically. His strong hands are always Holding onto me. As ticket hoisted me up, i felt strength surging through his strong arm... As God hoists me up, everyday, i feel Strength surging through Me...which is so incredible, because God gives me strength, He gives me strength so that next time i fall, i will be able to withstand it. He gives me strength so that Each Day, i can stand on my two feet and live a life that is all for Him!
Recently i was riding alone in my friend Ticket's Car with him. As we were driving along, we got into this conversation about God. As we were talking i couldn't believe how passionate about God he was. The way he spoke about Him, it was as if God was his best friend, and as if he knew God very very well. I longed for that. Why did it come so Easy for Ticket and not for me? Why could i not feel God's presence half the time... and why did it seem as if God was not real the other half of the time? Ticket tried so hard to get me to turn to God, some nights i imagine he was in tears, because that's how much he cares about God, and others loving God. But, the truth is, God spoke through Ticket. He really did, and still does, even though Ticket has no idea. When ever i talk to Ticket about spiritual things, whether it ends in a fight or not, i always can see God working though him. I want that so bad, i want to turn to God with everything, I want God to hold Me in his hand. I want God to use me to speak life into other peoples lives. Dear God, TEACH ME TO TURN TO YOU, HELP ME LORD, TO COME TO YOU WITH EVERY NEED. YOU ARE MY FATHER, YOU ARE MY PROVIDER, YOU ARE MY HEALER, HELP ME UNDERSTAND. ~Your Promised Child.~

He Said....She Said.... "I SAY!..(No More!)"
GOSSIP! "CHAT" "DISCUSSION!" "WHAT EVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT"....its not right. i know from experience that i can get caught up in a group of friends and be "Chatting" about another person...but were NOT just chatting....were dissing them behind their backs....and as soon as i walk away, they do it to me.
I have a friend named Ticket, as some of you may know, and he once asked me why i don't tell any of my Friends my secrets. My response was simply "I Don't trust them quite like i trust you. No matter how much they may want to try and help me, and keep the secret...they WILL ALWAYS end up Gossiping behind my back."
"If they are your friends you should be truthful with them. You cant lie to them. You should trust them" He bluntly replied.....
But my thoughts rushed around my head like a rapid stream of water, Trust is SO important. and as soon as that trust gets broken, its almost impossible to get it back. I, for one, Trusted Ticket with almost everything, but as soon as i lost my trust in him, all my respect for him left also.
God wants us to trust him. He wants us to Trust him with EVERYTHING....literally EVERYTHING. if He told you to pick up your feet and start walking to Canada, or Australia with NO money, No food, and only the Clothes on your back...and he said he Would provide for you... WOULD YOU GO? I would have said no...but Ticket would. i know he would. He loves God with Everything...He fully trusts God..and that is amazing to me. Gossiping about your friends is A BAD BAD HABIT. Everyone in the world needs to know that, ad try their hardest to stop, because i know....IT Kills Inside to have Someone talking bad about you.....and when you do that to someone else..... What happens? You loose their Trust....You loose a friend. Its Not worth it. Trust God. Trust Each other. It is true People make mistakes.....but don't make them Intentionally. Show your friend they can be trusted...and show your friends that They can Trust YOU!
Dear God, HELP ME TRUST MORE PEOPLE LIKE I TRUST TICKET! HELP ME TRUST YOU, I FEEL SO FAR FROM YOU. HELP ME QUIT THE GOSSIP THAT ONLY HURTS OTHERS...HELP ME LORD, Help Me.!
Everyone needs Help...just you need to be the one Willing to help them...Let GOD work through You!

Easy Way Out..of pain.
Scars cover peoples wrists. Blood stained arms and legs are hidden under layers of long sleeves and jeans. And so many people on this planet wonder why? Why would any one do that to themselves. WHY?.... Because, Their emotional pain has become to much to handle, they need a way out, they need to let go of it.. It is different for every one. Different reasons, different answers. but some people become so Numb to physical pain that they lash out and cut themselves, so deep just to feel something again. it eases there pain, it allows them a moment of peace, away from their emotional pain. Away form the worlds gawking glances and comments. away from the fights of anger and accusations. the people that ignore them and refuse to speak life into there world.
My best friend, know as Ticket was such a comfort some nights. We would stay up past 2:00 on a school night talking about God, and the Universe, the wonders of the world. He wanted me so bad to turn to God, i could feel it. but i couldn't feel God. but lashing out and Hurting your skin is not the answer...That is Not the easy way out. God is. He is the Easiest, the Safest, the most Reliable way out. Ticket spoke words to me i will never forget. he tried desperately to make me believe this, and honestly i still struggle with it. i cried out to Ticket, i couldn't feel God, i couldn't. It was as if he Did not care about me. Ticket told me to listen to a song from the radio. "Need You Now, by Plumb"... i don't need God...that's my response. but is it true? Do i need God. Some days the pain of life overflows and its hard to contain... DEAR God.. Do I Need You? Are You REAL?! Ticket Says You are...but I cant feel you! Whats Going On? Why Are So Many People Hurting...Why Doesn't This Change!? GOD...HELP ME!~ Your Wounded Searching Child.

Closing In(to my world)
Slowly i feel like my world is unfolding in front of my very eyes....and not in that good way. I have dug a hole, that i am now realizing i cannot crawl out of on my own. My good friend (i call him Ticket) was the only person in the world i told anything to. Trust in him kept me glued with his interest and wisdom. Ticket was great, he never treated me different when he saw me in that, except for the random, occasional, "Hows it going" or "Have a nice day"....and i liked that. He had a soft spot in his heart for hurting people, but he knew when enough was, he didn't want to see me get more hurt then i was, so he stoped. He Completely left me Hanging. He will not speak to me, he will not help me, he will not listen to me. I Share this with Everybody and Anybody who dares to read this Blog and not comment. Ticket is a human, and as a human, he couldn't take holding on to my pain any longer so he let go.
I lay awake at night wondering what would have happened if i put all that trust and faith into God. Would my world now be closing in? With no way out? When i was little, God was my strength, my best friend, I loved God, and i thought he loved me. Now as i am growing up i realize, i pushed my trust onto humans, not God, and that was stupid. Ticket ended up breaking me. He ripped out apart of me that i can't fix...and now I'm left with a bigger wound then before. God, Heal My Heart, Open Up My World, Show Me Your Light...and Heal Ticket, i am sorry for hurting him.

Take the Pain
Sometimes in this life people can feel unaccepted and hurt. i would know. Many times i turned to a Friend who i thought would be of great help, and he was, sometimes. When asking for help, i would end-up pushing him away as he would try his hardest to help me out. i wanted him to take away my pain, but i knew that's not how it works. He told me only God can do that, but i struggled to believe. The stress of all this lead my dear friend to stop speaking to me, it was all to much. i knew if i didn't change i would not get my friend back...but i didn't know what to do. He tells me over and over to turn to God, but deep inside i resisted God, i make myself believe he doesn't care.. but does he? My friend, i will call him Ticket, tried to convince me God cares. And now i share this with whoever feels the need to read this simply because, all those people out there, all those who struggle with self-harm, or suicide, or abuse, or bulling, i want you all to know that Ticket believe's God cares, and i want to also. i write about Gods love, but do i believe it? i cannot feel it most the time, but the tiny bit i can, its unbelievable. God, Please Help me if you truley care. I want the love for you that i see Ticket has for you... i want to change my ways oh, Lord. Show me your real, show others your real.

I.Promise.
I've been thinking about creating a Blog for quiet a while...just to be able to get all my Thoughts out of my head. I'll start off by introducing my name...
"Safe Promises"...i picked this name because so many times people make Promises without even thinking about it. Everyday people in the world that make breakable promises, that i like to call Shattered Promises, They promise something without thinking about it and they end up breaking there promise before they even have a chance to complete it. I like to think that i have a Safe Promise in God. He promises to Love me, to Hold me, to Protect me...He never breaks a promise. I am Safely Chosen by God to be a child of his. A friend recently assured me that God will take his children back, even if they show they would take anything over him. God PROMISES to love us...and he will never break that promise.. because that is a Safe Promise, made by God. i just hope that in my life i can start making some Promises that i will stay faithful to, and not break. God, Please Help Me..
