God shall supply all your needs

This struck me the other day.

John 21 RKJNT
15 So when they had eaten, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these? He said to him, Yes, Lord; you know that I love you. He said to him, Feed my lambs.
16 He said to him a second time, Simon, son of John, do you love me? He said to him, Yes, Lord; you know that I love you. He said to him, Tend my sheep.
17 He said to him a third time, Simon, son of John, do you love me? Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, Do you love me? And he said to him, Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you. Jesus said to him, Feed my sheep.

Jesus just asks Peter "do you love me?" and tells him to "Feed my lambs." that is it.

Paul writes in Philippines after talking about being humbled says

Philippines 4 RKJNT
19 And my God shall supply all your needs according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
20 Now to our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

God lead us
God bless us

Blast from the Past


One of the sketches is dated Feb 3, 2007, and the film of the B/W photo is dated Oct 21, 2006. I have to admit that most of the sketches where inspired by Akiane http://akiane.com/home.html.

So I know how to play some cords on a guitar, but most of the time I would resort to playing the same cords. I had no idea what I was playing until this summer one of my friends pointed out the song. GREEN DAY LYRICS - "Boulevard Of Broken Dreams". Now how is that for my sub conscience speaking to me lol. If you look at the sketches you see the same thing.

One thing I noticed about my walk of faith with God is that he uproots problems, and shows them to me. Though it is a tough pill to swallow all the time, I notice how necessary it is. I ask God for strength, I give it to God and ask him to teach me how to do things better, because really I have no clue. God is really what makes me who I am.

So God
Lead us
Bless us
Show us what we need to see
Give us everything we need
In Jesus name amen

"All praise to the God and Father of our Master, Jesus the Messiah! Father of all mercy! God of all healing counsel!" 2 Corinthians 1:3

This goes out to all the girls out there

It's never worth it to sell yourself.


I Knew You Before SONG LYRICS
by
Dustin Kensrue

You were once a sweet little girl
So innocent and pure
Your eyes were open and sure
Anyone could look right in

I followed closely your gaze
You looked up towards the sky
And I watched your face drift away
Other things had caught your eye

Oh, the magazines and media supplied you with their plastic protocol
Oh, and maybe music television really is the devil after all
But all I can say is I knew you before
You were beautiful back then

Before you grew up, before you gave in

You dream of sharing your heart
Instead you share your bed
And your heart beats empty and cold
With all the tears that you have shed

You dream of baring your soul
Instead you bare more skin
And you wear dark glasses to keep
Anyone from looking in

Oh, the magazines and media supplied you with their plastic protocol
Oh, and maybe music television really is the devil after all
But all I can say is I knew you before
You were beautiful back then

Before you grew up, before you gave in

And all you want is to hear the words
"Dear baby I love you"
So you hike your skirt higher still
'Till there eyes are all on you

You drive in fast foreign cars
The color of your sin
And you tint your windows to keep
Anyone from looking in

Oh, and all I can say I knew you before
You were beautiful back then

Before you grew up, before you gave in

And all I can say is I knew you before
You were beautiful back then

You could be beautiful again

Vinyl


Yesterday I was spontaneous and decided to play a record. So after looking around and asking my parents I found my dad's record player. I then looked to see what records my parents had and then plugged it together with my sound system .... and this is where I said "Where have you been records for the past ... years". Yah I was amazed. Right now the record collection is kind of slim, but I plan on increasing it and buying some new records. I was impressed at how many CD's also come in vinyl. You know I don't really listen to classical but I was blown away by the classical record of Beethoven so yah. Go old school and listen to vinyl :P, so much better than the compressed MP3 of today. But then you can't have 10000 songs on an small square box or actually listen to records anywhere but at home ... but yah something of quality.

God guide us
God heal us
God bless
God lead us
in Jesus name Amen

#. The biggest lie I was ever told

As far back as I can conjure up I remember people telling me that if I try really, really, really hard I can do anything I want. This statement has been proven false for me many times, and can be proven false easily.

In the next second I want to climb to the top of Mount Everest... or anything even more outrageous like that.

Just doesn't happen. So what do I propose to replace it with.

1 John 5:14-15 (New American Standard Bible)
" 14 This is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
15 And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him. "

Life is meant to be lived

I am struck by the words "Life is meant to be lived". I have no idea what the application of those words could be.

I have done enough thinking for a life time, and so my goal is let my artistic twists go and see where they take me. And so I will start with this picture I took of a sunset(or sunrise how can you tell? ...). So be prepared for artistic stuff, or as much as you can get from me ... lol.

I propose to go star gazing with my telescope at least once this summer, take lots of pictures, and see the world in a new light.



I find all we can do is do is what we believe and the rest is up to God to change if we are wrong because I trust him.

God call in the glorious day,
God lead us,
God bless us.

John Friesen out!
