A Verse

Hi!  This is Ellie--I haven't posted in forever here, but I felt that I should post this verse.  I found it a while back, in November I guess, and it really encouraged me, because I always have trouble determining "the proper time and procedure" to carry things out.  Hope it encourages you!

"Whoever obeys his command will come to no harm,

and the wise heart will know the proper time and procedure.

For there is a proper time and procedure for every matter,

though a man's misery weighs heavily upon him."

-Ecclesiastes 8:4-6

Bado go Eru (go with God)

Namarie, 

-Ellie

At The Foot Of The Cross

I'm always posting music on here, but I'm going to do it again anyway! lol =)

I was at guitar practice/lessons yesterday, and my friend/teacher started teaching me this song and I just thought it was so beautiful! So here it is:

At The Foot Of The Cross

At the foot of the cross
Where grace and suffering meet
You have shown me Your love
Through the judgment You received

And You've won my heart
Yes You've won my heart
Now I can

Trade these ashes in for beauty
And wear forgiveness like a crown
Coming to kiss the feet of mercy
I lay every burden down
At the foot of the cross

At the foot of the cross
Where I am made complete
You have given me life
Through the death You bore for me

I'm laying every burden down
I'm laying every burden down

1 Corinthians 13:1-7

If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels,
but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
And if I have prophetic powers,
and understand all mysteries and all knowledge,
and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains,
but have not love, I am nothing.
If I give away all I have,
and if I deliver up my body to be burned,
but have not love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast;
it is not arrogant or rude.
It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;
it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth.
Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

~ 1 Corinthians 13:1-7

~My Faith is in You~

This is a psalm I wrote back in October for a school assignment. I posted it on my other blog also, so you may have read it before. I have written several, but no, you can't read them. :) Let me know what you think of this one though.

~

At times when troubles come,
at times I don’t understand,
and at times when I feel all alone,
I will put my trust in You.

I know not yet Your plans for me.
An unfinished picture is all I can see.

Your plans are like this picture -
created beautifully by Your own hand.

Yet all I see are tiny pieces,
of this unfinished puzzle.
These pieces are scattered about…
seemingly incomplete.

On my own these pieces…
can never become that picture,
so I must put my trust in You!

For without You I would be nothing.
In You I am complete!

Lord, I know You have a purpose for me,
one through faith I seek to fulfill.

I will go where You lead me,
and do as You command.

Because, Lord I know You love me,
and I surrender my life to You.
I believe You will guide me,
and protect me wherever I go.

For all this I give You thanks!

and praise You for all the things You’ve done!

Thankful For...

I am so sorry for the lack of posting! Apparently everyone has been pretty busy.

Since Thanksgiving is tomorrow, I thought I would start a "What you are thankful for" tag. You list as many things as you can think of on your blog of what you are thankful for. Instead of only tagging certain people, I have decided that everyone can do it. Feel free to leave a comment on this post if you decide to do it.

Here is my list...

1.) That Jesus died for me
2.) A Wonderful family
3.) The best friends I could ever ask for
4.) All my Internet friends
5.) Food and water
6.) A house to live in
7.) More clothes than I probably even need
8.) An education, even if it isn't very much fun
9.) Electricity
10.) My five little kitties
11.) Our dogs (I didn't say I "liked" them. I said I am thankful for them... mainly because they are "guard dogs" though... lol!)
12.) My keyboard
13.) My harp

I could probably come up with more, but I need to go...

New Look...

As you can see, I changed the template because I wanted it to have three columns (Hope you don't mind Mackenzie).

I also added a link list. If your blog is on there and you want it taken off, just tell us. Or if your blog is not on there and you want it to be, feel free to tell us that also.

Well, this post isn't exactly that important, so scroll down and read the posts below...
