A New Year Has Come

As I think about the year ending, I have promised Christ and myself goals I plan to achieve for the next year. The New Year will bring many challenges, so my first goal is to get closer to Christ. My next goal is to bring my family together as one.

I also want to make sure I am as healthy as I can be. Through Christ, I know all of these goals can be achievable. When Christ enters your life, all things come into place. This is why we must put Him first, and watch all of our goals become achievements.

A Rose

A rose is a flower that has a relationship to how we sometimes react in situations.

The rose petals are so delicate that if you touch them hard they start to burst apart.

That’s the way life goes on. Sometimes we are like a nice, beautiful rose petal, but when anger approaches our heart, our rose petal explodes.

Life is so strange at times that it makes you wonder where Christ has gone. But the good thing is He is always by our side.

Anti Bully

Being bullied is when you allow someone to attempt to change your life under his or her control. You don’t have to worry because Christ rules over all those people. He is there when you fall down and can’t get up. When you fall, just pray and think of joy. Life is so good when you are happy and not worried about somebody preventing happiness. If it’s hard for you to communicate verbally, pass this card to someone you trust. This is a card that helps uplift the spirit of those who are bullied.

Pass this card on to anybody you know who is being bullied in some way. Remember that life is the joy you make it to be and no one can take this from you. You should continue to shine because life is beautiful.

Birthday

Our birthday is a day we think about when we were first born. This is when we first came into this world to see what was out there for us. This is the day out of the year when we grow a bit wiser. To see this day is a blessing because no day is promised to us. As the years come and go, I thank Christ for letting me experience this part of my life.

Calling Home

Christ told you if you ever needed Him, all you had to do was call on Him. He lets us know He is here. He is just waiting for you to call on Him. His glory is your home. He told you if you were in need, to call Him, and you are in need. You need His love and His blessings. You need His help so you can be the one who makes Him proud for creating you. You call on Christ to save your soul because His glory is your salvation. We thank You, Jesus Christ, because You hold the glory.
