SPRING IS IN THE AIR

my spring break was awesome I with one of my friends went backpacking in the Smokies for two days. the weather and scenery were AWESOME!!!!!!!!! we saw several waterfalls and I had to cross a couple of them one of them Josh lost his boot and he had to were his sneakers and then to top it off it rained hard at 4:00 AM on Friday and the tent got wet, so we decided to leave on Friday. while we were there we witnessed to some men from NC and they were saved and we had an enjoyable fellowship. more on a serious note the Lord showed me some things that i have to work on in my personal life if I ever want to help others. It is going to be easieser said then done but I know the Lord will help by using the great Friends I have to encourage me. stepho

Rainy Day Trial always brings A Rainbow of Beauty

Today when i woke up i felt like the weather,

dark and gloomy! I had so much stuff on my mind and I was not wanting to in class to day, and i did not want to have my devotions but I did with the help Naomi and Amber's encouragement.

when 12:00 came my Christian Church epistles was a very BIG help to me. Br. Hooks was talking about the church of Thessionice and how that when we go through trials it is for our good and to make us beautiful.

here are some quotes that Br. Hooks gave us and i am going to try and apply these to my life

1. our Faith+ God's grace = true love
2. a mushroom will grow in one night but a mighty oak will endure many storms before become strong and beautiful
3. the trials that we go through will show God's righteousness in my life
4. when bless God then He will give me his grace that will reveal his glory

I Peter 4:12-13

Beloved think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you as though some strange thing happened unto you

But Rejoice inasmuch as ye are partakers of Chirst's sufferings that when his glory shall be revealed ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.

Well i am feeling a whole lot better becauce the Lord showed me that after ever rainy trail a Rainbow of beauty will be seen
