Beacon

I'm Kayla. I'm not some "preppy teenager". I'm not some "emo" or "goth" kid. I'm not some "gangsta" or "nerd", I'm Kayla. I am myself and no one or nothing can change that. God knows who I really am annd he loves me for it. We need to stop being so consumed with "popularity" and other peoples' opinions and just be ourselves. Honestly, how are we showing God's love for us, if we aren't being ourselves? How are we portraying God's love and grace by making fun of people,drinking,smoking,cursing,sleeping with everyone? We aren't!!!!! Us, teenagers, are the next generation! We need to SHOW GOD'S LOVE! I know that I'm going to be a beacon of light. Maybe there would be less heartbreaks, less suicides, less divorces, breakups, and abortions if we show God's love. God never guranteed us a "perfect world" so let's get that out of our minds, but he did promise shelter in the storm. And when thousands of people are in that storm, I'm going to be the beacon that helps them to shelter.

Random Da doodly doos: 1.19.10

So at the end of my devotions and journals and such, I always lighten the mood with random "da doodly doos".

So here where my random da doodly doos for January 19th :)

Far too far away
I know it must be hard
to see them struggling
you call out
but they refuse to hear you
stupid,arrogant,prideful children
can't they see they need you
can't I see I need you
I need you

Devotion: 1.19.10

So... haha yeah I wrote this on the 19th of January :)

The Power of Perserverance

"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith" 2 Timothy 4:7

1. We must remain faithful, especially during times of hardship
- God is always there for us. No matter what we are going through, how big or small our problems are, God is ALWAYS there.
- God answers EVERY prayer. Although the answer might not always be "yes". God knows what is best for us and God knows what will fit in his master plan.
- Everything happens for a reason. God has a plan for your life. So everything in your life,every little detail, every bad thing, every good thing, has a reason.

If you are having a hard situation just remember that God is in control.





Journal:
I seem to get so caught up in life that sometimes I "forget" God is there. I seem to plave him on the "back burner" until I need him. Then I do some devotions, get on a little "Jesus high" and the next day, go right back to my same routine. I put God on the "back burner" once again. Honestly, I need to STOP. God should be number one, numero uno, the Big Cheese! He should come before friends, before boys, before music or dance or photography, and yes, even before school. He should come before that because he IS my everything. If I claim God to be my everything, my all, then why am I treating him as though he's not important. God shouldn't be JUST my "go-to" man. I shouldn't just go to him when I need him. I'm in a "relationship" with God. In order to have a relationship with him, I need to give effort. God's willing, I just need to be. I just need to put forth the effort. I need to

STOP PUTTING GOD ON THE

BACK BURNER!!!!
