Stunning.........


"You are a woman.  An image bearer of God.  The Crown of Creation.  You were chosen before time and space, and you are wholly and dearly loved.  You are sought after, pursued, romanced, the passionate desire of your Fiancé Jesus.  You are dangerous in your beauty and your life-giving power.  And you are needed.

As a woman who has been ransomed and redeemed, you can be strong and tender.  You speak to the world of God's mercy, mystery, beauty, and His desire for intimate relationship.  You are inviting; you can risk being vulnerable, offering the weight of your life as well as your need for more because you are safe in God's love.  You labour with God to bring forth life - in creativity, in work, in others.  Your aching, awakened heart leads you to the feet of Jesus, where you wait on him and wait for him.  The eyes of His heart are ever upon you.  The King is captivated by your beauty..."

Channel Four.......

This evening I watched a programme called 'The Virgin Daughters" on channel four.  It was all about purity and sex before marriage. I have to be truthful it totally freaked me.   I really believe that marriage is sacred and an act that shouldn't be taken into lightly, I also whole- heartedly  believe that you should save yourself for marriage. Saving yourself however I don't believe means you cant hold hands or kiss.  God isn't going to be upset with you because you kissed a boy at the age of 15, you aren't going to be unclean for holding someone of the opposites sex hand.  It makes me think what impression are we giving to younger non-Christians, 'if you become a Christian you cant hold you boyfriend/girlfriends hand until you're married'; that is insane and frankly I don't think 98% of young people will buy into. Also no offense to my Dad, however I don't want him to pick my future husband.  If my previous boyfriends asked my Dads permissi...

Search Me.......

Ok, I cant sleep and cant say I am impressed by it. I have a busy day tomorrow so really need my sleep - but whatever I do is not helping. I have gone for a drive, sat by the sea, walked along the front, counted sheep you name it I have done it!!! So I de cided to sort out my IPod. It has so much rubbish on and thought it would be good to get some new stuff on it for the holiday period. Sorting through my Cd's and found one I received a while ago by Vicky Beeching called 'Yesterday, today and forever' it is awesome. I stumbled across this song called 'Search Me' . The Lyrics are as followed: Search me Oh God Search me and find Any way in me that does not reflect Your purity Refine me Oh God In the fire of Your gaze That I might be holy in all of my ways Take me deeper Lord Draw me closer Lord… Give me a heart after Your own heart Give me a mind that is pure and pleasing to You Fill me with love With Your power and Your joy That this world might see You in me They ...
