This Isn't A Love Story This Is A Story About Love
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.
-God

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.
Whether…
I am happy or sad
I am succeeding or struggling
I have good grades or bad grades
I am in a relationship or not
Friends come into my life or go
I draw closer to You or fall away
It rains or shines
I am heartbroken or rejoicing
I stay where I am or leave
I have everything or nothing
You are still God. Even when everything around me changes. You will always remain the same.

For all those who are going through tough times right now I give you one of my favorite verses. “I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.” Romans 8:18. No matter what people say to you, or what grades you are getting in school, or how much money you have, God will always love you and He shares in both our sufferings and comfort. God has provided you with so much already and you have so much to look forward to. If anything we should be thanking and glorifying God for all that He has given to us. Keep your eyes focused on what is important and the sufferings in this world will be like little road bumps in your life

I would so give all of you a hug and words of encouragement, sadly I can only offer one
I may be far away from you, but I can always pray, love, and encourage you. I can offer up my tumblr to anyone who needs hope, happiness, an uplifting message, or just to be loved. I may not be able to hear or see many of you in person, but i will always be with you in spirit. Feel free to share with me anything that is on your heart. I am blessed to be your brother in Christ and you have all earned a special place in my heart. The thing that touches my heart is the fact that some of my messages comforted people even when I am not even present. That is God at work.

There is no battle to big for you to overcome when...
The Word of God is your sword
God is your shield
You are clothed in love
You have a heart filled with Christ
and are being led by the Holy Spirit
The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but victory rests with the LORD.-Proverbs 21:31

For those who are stressed from school, work, or life. For those who are tired, discouraged, or may have hit a road bump in life. I will provide some encouragement - Those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31

“When you cry, I hold you. I wipe away your never-ending tears. You push me away. You hit me. You tell me to leave you alone as you walk away, sobbing. But my love, that is simply not good enough for me, but you are. So I chase after you, I put my arms around you. You put your hands into fists and start fighting me away, but I don’t relent when it comes to the one I love. I grab your wrists in one hand, I gently wipe away the tears from eyes so red and swollen from your refusal to let them show. You start crying again, and I wipe away every single tear streaming down your face. You put your hot face in the middle of my chest, and finally let me hold you. I let go of your wrists and you wrap your arms around me. Your face is buried in my chest, your hands cling onto me as if I am all you have left, because I am. You cry and cry and cry, but you’re done fighting, and now you’re just letting me love you. That’s all I wanted, anyway.”
Wait patiently on the Lord. He is faithful to those who trust in Him.
Because of the LORD’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, “The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.” - Lamentations 3:22-24

God Your love is what keeps me going everyday and keeps a smile on my face
You lift me up when I am weak
Your arms wrap around me
Your love catches me so I’m letting go
You lift me up when I can’t see
Your heart is all that I need
Your love carries me so I’m letting go
-The Afters
Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up. James 4:10

“What if Your blessings come thru raindrops?
What if Your healing comes thru tears?
What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You’re near?
What if my greatest disappointments or the aching of this life is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can’t satisfy?
And what if the trials of this life, the rain, the storms, the hardest nights are Your mercies in disguise?”
In times of hardship you can always seek refuge and joy in the Lord
Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Savior. - Habakkuk 3:17-18
