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.

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.
Your leaping child,
Safe Promises

I love this song by Stellar Cart:
Corus;
Someone loves you even when you don't think so don't you know you got
Me and Jesus by your side through the fight you will never be alone on your own you got me and Jesus....

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

Planets...Beond my wildest dreams.

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!

Sends thought through my head every time i look at it!
Such an amazing thing, created by who?....By God. Like a little gift to us. One day i want to explore these planets, the skies, the heavens, they all amaze me! And i think. If God can keep each planet in space, moving, and beautiful, and maintained....How much more does he care for me and you!?
I asked my friend Ticket once: "How do you know God is real?"
Ticket: "Because there is nothing that dis-proves it."
Me: "How do you know that the world wasn't always here?"
Ticket: "Well, then,Who created the heavens then? How Was the earth made? The evidence is too strong for me to deny him, even if i wanted to...which i don't"
And he was so right. Look at the evidence all around us! Look at the skies. Only a skilled hand could shape and form those! The stars, each unique! These are all of God's creatiions! How super awesome, and no one these days thinks to stop and praise God for making them! They Overwhelm my mind, of how millions of masses of planets and stars are in our solar system.....and two hands made them!!!! The planets, Each separate! I just want anyone and everyone who reads this to stop and pause for a bit. I decide to write this blog for one reason, and one reason only, to praise God, to thank him  for the Exuberant work he has done! DEAR GOD: Thank you so much! You are the best artist i have ever known! And i pray that everyone will realize that YOU created the heavens and the Earth! THANK YOU JESUS!...Not only for dieing for us, but that you God, for creating Beauty! Amen!
~Your searching Child,
Safe Promises!
P.S. Please Share this with the World, and with your Friends, Lets ALL take today to stop and Thank God Especially for the Planets!...thats one thing, most people over look....

 

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!
