As faith-filled believers, we must keep hoping, keep believing and stay faithful. Many times, we are closer than we think to victory. God is faithful to His promises. When God says we will be richly rewarded for keeping our confidence in Him, that should give us a second wind, giving us fuel to keep up the faith. Don’t give up today on your dreams and your hope in God. By developing the attitude, “I’ve come too far to stop now†and learning how to be full of hope, expecting God’s favor daily, you’ll see God begin to do amazing things even in the midst of trying times! You are closer than you think to victory. Dare to hope in God and His promises. You will not be disappointed!
-Joel Osteen
I get a daily Bible message from John Osteen Ministries because he is my favorite preacher and God seems to place his show on TV when I need to wake up or when I am going through a rough time. I got this message in my email and something told me to skip it, that I would need it not now... but later. So I didn't read it, didn't delete it but just let it sit in my inbox. A full month later I find myself down in probably the toughest hole I have experienced in my life. No job, any real love life way gone and finished with college with a degree that I felt was worthless due to the schools reputation they had created over the 2 years I had been there. I felt like I was just floating through the days as my savings slowly depleted and I was getting scared. I opened my mail and saw (1 new message) but no messages on the first page. I had completely forgotten about the email until that moment and I scrolled through all the old messages until I found that above message waiting for me in that email. I know my faith has faltered here and there but then I realized everyones does from time to time and it's the people that God places in our lives that will help bring you back. Whether it be a pastor thousands of miles away in Texas or a new friend who you never saw coming. Don't give up on your dreams and ambitions even when it seems hopeless but instead hold onto Him even tighter than before and He will bring peace back into your life. He did for me and He will for you.

***Be yourself, stay true to yourself. Don't lie to yourself. Tell yourself how it is, who you are. Be who you are, not someone you want to be. Forgive those who hurt you and move on with life. Makes life a lot better :D
Whats up kiddies ^^ My name is Ashley and I basically love life. I try to find the good in all the bad. I believe everyone has a little bit of good in them even if they don't show it. I love being with people most of the time. I think people are amazing and I love making new friends, however it's the ones that shine true through everything that are the most important to me. I love my true friends and they are what hold me together. I believe in treating others the way you want to be treated, nerds are amazingly awesome (I mean come on I am one of them =0) haha.. and I think it is important to listen to other people and take into perspective what they have to say even if you disagree completely. I also believe you should always see the worlds problems, and problems in general from another persons shoes, it is very important. The most important however, is that Jesus is my Lord and Savior. He loves every one of you and I hope that each and every one of you can find it in your hearts to let Him in, let Him be in your life, guide you and listen to his life lessons that He has to share. He has created so many miracles in my life and I hope that you all will let Him do the same for you. God Bless.

The dream is fading, now I'm staring at the door
I know its over cause my feet have hit the cold floor
Check my reflection, I ain't feelin what I see
It's no mystery
Whatever happened to a passion I could live for?
What became of the flame that made me feel more?
And when did i forget that...
I was made to love You
I was made to find You
I was made just for You
Made to adore You
I was made to love
And be loved by You
You were here before me
You were waiting on me
And you said you'd keep me
Never would you leave me
I was made to love
and be loved by You
The dream's alive with my eyes opened wide
Back in the ring You've got me swinging for the grand prize
I feel the haters is spittin vapors on my dreams
But I still believe
I'm reachin out, reachin up, reachin over
I feel a breeze cover me called Jehovah
And Daddy I'm on my way
Cause I was made to love...
I was made to love You
I was made to adore You, made just for You
Anything I would give up for You
Everything, I'd give it all away
I was made to love You
I was made to adore You, made just for You
