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.
Your Broken Child,
Safe Promises.
