This Isn't A Love Story This Is A Story About Love

Ryan Tokeshi [21] UC Riverside, Graduate of Valencia High School.
I am a part of AACF UCR. Attend Sandals Church in Riverside and Higher Vision Church in Santa Clarita.

Welcome to my outreach and prayer blog :)

This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. 1 John 4:10

And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel. Ephesians 6:18-19

This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. 1 John 3:16

I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. Ecclesiastes 3:12

If love was a storybook. We would meet on the very first page.

To all my brothers and sisters in Christ. To me you are like my family and many of you have been so kind with your messages and your posts show me how dedicated you all are to serving God. I get new followers each day and I always try to be consistent in quality posts every day. I pray for all of you each night and it definitely has been a blessing being able to serve you all and talk to many of you. If you were all here I would give each one of you a hug. Hope this brightens up your day :)

God loves you so much......
That every morning when you wake up God would leave you not only a text with encouraging passages from His Word and messages, but also call you so you could hear His voice saying “You are special to me, I will always love you first and you are perfect just the way you are”. Then visit you every morning just so you can run into His open arms and God will say, “I will be with you…….Always and Forever”. And God would do this every morning for us because that is how much He loves us.

"God doesn't have a Blackberry or iPhone, but He is my Favorite Contact. He doesn't have Facebook, but He is my Best Friend. He doesn't have Tumblr, but I follow Him. He doesn't have Internet, but I am connected to Him 24/7."

Let us all tear down the walls that keep God out of the picture so we can live lives dedicated to His will for us. By doing so it will allow us to not focus on things like beauty, fame, possessions, money, and the things that the world views as “good” but allow us to say “yes” to God when it comes to devoting our lives to serving others, missions, and living everyday by God’s Word. As God’s children we are called to be transformed by the spirit and see that there is more to this life than the things we see around us. Things in this life are only temporary, but a relationship with God will last forever. If there is someone you don’t know that needs prayer or needs God in their lives, do not be afraid to reach out to them, but remove all the barriers keeping you from doing so and remember to put others before yourself and God first and foremost.

God would like nothing more...
than for you to run to Him and say, “I can never thank you enough for all you have done for me and all the things that give myself and so many Christians hope. It is because of what You have done for me that I will devote my whole life to putting You first, glorifying, and seeking You out with all my heart. I may not be perfect and I do stumble, but I will always do my best to please You and NEVER stop loving and putting my trust in You. Lastly, I will be a light and encouragement for others and ALWAYS keep You and my brothers and sisters in Christ in my prayers and my heart.

Whether you know me or not, I pray that you will find something encouraging in my posts or a push in the right direction.

Hi brothers and sisters, I am Ryan if you don’t know me already. I have a passion for loving God and others. God is always first in my life and I strive to be led by His Word. I am a huge fan of Christian/worship music. Starfield, Tenth Avenue North, Sonicflood, BreatheDeep, David Crowder Band, Jesus Culture, and Rush Of Fools are some of the artists I listen to. I love to swim (I work as a lifeguard), I am a big fan of animated movies, love worship/concert events (going to see Tenth Avenue North, MercyMe, LeCrae, and Sidewalk Prophets all together soon), and of course spending time with my brothers and sisters. I spend quite a bit of time here, God is really using me to reach out to others and encourage people all across the world. Although I post a great deal about relationships I have never been in one. For now I am focusing on growing my relationship with Him and being patient in His plan for me. I am currently involved in my fellowship AACF on the campus UC Riverside. I serve on the core team and coordinate both prayer and multimedia ministries and also starting up bible study meetings soon as well for my fellowship. I am really easy to talk to and I try my best to be transparent with everyone I meet. I may seem quiet at first, but I can talk quite a bit. I am a really happy and smiley person btw haha. Favorite verse of the bible: 1 John 4:10-11. It brings me so much joy to bless others and love on others. If you ever need comfort or need someone to listen to I am always here for you. I highly value my friendships and relationships with people because good friends are so hard to find in this world and good friends who absolutely love the Lord are even harder to find. I have a deep love for prayer so if you have any prayer requests feel free to send them to me. One gift that God has truly blessed me with is encouragement. As you can tell I love encouraging others; it is one of my strongest gifts. If you want to find me there is a link on my page to my FB if I ever decide to leave tumblr. Love you all brothers and sisters.
