Miracles in a lighthouse!

These past few weeks I have been living in a dark tunnel filled with problems and attacks every which way from Satan. I realized something when I was going through this tunnel … everyone has a lighthouse. I know sometimes I repeat myself over and over again but this is a point that needs to be heard. Jesus is my lighthouse. Not only does He provide comfort but He is the light in this dark scary world. I feel so relieved to be back in His arms and I am so happy. I love the fact that His light shines so bright that you can see it from far away…a lighthouse does the same thing. It has been a miracle to be alive and with Him. Not only to have His divine love 24/7 but to have Him walk with you in every situation whether it is good or bad is what my father does for me. He shows me the light in this darkness. Close your eyes for a few minutes and forget about all of your worries then breathe. It feels good to just feel free and relieved. God loves you so much and when you are with Him you can feel that way. He will never leave you nor forsake you. That is why I will be a light for Christ on this earth. I want to share the good news with everyone and I am going to stop hiding it. Just think Jesus is YOUR miracle in a lighthouse!

Matthew 5:15
“"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.”

NEVER AGAIN

I have NEVER cried so much in my whole entire life!
I have NEVER felt so alone in my whole entire life!
I have NEVER been so hurt in my whole entire life.

I feel so unloved lately. This past week has been one of the hardest weeks. It has been full of every emotion in the world. It was filled with rejection and pain that doesn't go away. I just want to be back to normal.

Have you ever had a terrible day? I feel like that all week long.

Jesus went through all types of emotions....and He still made His worst day His best day.

Instead of feeling sorry for myself because of a weeks worth of bad days I need to stand up and thank Jesus. I need to stop making my worst days, my worst days. I am going to make everyday an opportunity to be the BEST day that I have ever lived.

A bad day will no longer bring me down!

Stop questing Him and start thanking Him

Dear Avonlea,
I know that you do not understand what is going on in your life but trust me God has a plan. Someday it will all make sense to you. When the bad times come why do you question Him? Instead of questioning Him, why don't you thank Him. I know it sounds hard to do but He is with you forever and always. You see that Gods love is so divine that He loves you through the good times and the bad ones. You need to trust in God with all your heart, mind and soul. God knows your heart and will guide you through every situation. Thank Him for everything in your life. For He is the one that catches your tears, know how many hairs are on your head and loves you because you are His child. Do not give up and remember to thank Him for everything because without Him you wouldn't have anything.

Love,
Avonlea

You are better than that!

We live in a world where everything is a reality. It is reality when you wake up in the morning and realize that you have to go to work or school or something else that takes up your time. Its reality.

One of the best comments that I have ever heard is when a good friend of mine told me that I am better than that!

Wow. Talk about a slap in the face. It was when I met reality face to face. It was hard to cope with at first but then I started thinking. I am really appreciative that my friend told me this because…

-I am better than the lies that are spoken to me from the world.

-I am better than the troubles that make me stubble.

-I am better than the hurt that endure.

-I am better than the way I look at myself.


See, even though I go through hard times and troubles I can be successful at whatever I do because I am better than that. The only way this became possible was when I realized what I am. Fact I am human but I am also made in Gods image. I am His creation. What an honor it is. I am pleased to tell you that you are the same way, Gods creation. He loves you so much. It is true that we come face to face with reality everyday but remember no matter what it is YOU ARE BETTER THAN THAT!
