I met Colton one summer vacation when we lined up on opposite sides of a flag football field. He was the cocky kid with clear blue eyes and a constant smirk. When he picked me up over his shoulder and ran with me the length of the field, I wanted to hate him. But somehow we were the last two left around the campfire that night. We talked for hours under the stars. And when he kissed me, I didn't want him to stop. The next morning, I left. I thought I'd never see him again. And for ten years, I didn't. Colton Sky Rosewood was the one that got away, the fiery redhead with a temper to match. It felt like way more than a teenage crush, but what did I know back then?

A beautiful woman who agrees to give me the right number this time. I've got my second chance with the woman I never forgot, and there's no way I'm letting her get away again.

  • - God Hears Our Cry and Throw Out the LifeLine
    av Taliba Falaq-Lockhart

    On a cold winter January day, 1995, suddenly a powerful force of misty white, cloudy-looking substance swiftly swirled around me like a whirlwind and lifted me upward, higher and higher into the sky until I found myself standing inside of God Himself. He was more real than anything I had ever known. For the first time in my life, I felt totally loved, whole and free with unspeakable joy, like I was finally at home where I belongs. It was the most powerful experience I ever had in my life; but as powerful as that experience was it did not stop me from committing the one sin, I said I would never commit; and when I postponed, delayed listening to God's tender warnings, as a result, I plunged deeper into sin and suffered mental torment and terrifying consequences. Nevertheless, because of the great Love of a Mighty and Compassionate God He threw out the Lifeline and drew me in from sin and danger back to peaceful shores.

  • - Revelation 12
    av Jeff M Blanc
    172

    God declared the end from the beginning and from ancient times things not yet done saying my counsel shall stand, and I will accomplish all my pleasure, Isaiah 46:10. There is a reason why he told us about the end, in such an elaborate puzzle. It is a beautiful mystery that goes beyond the human wisdom and into the very thoughts of the Lord. I am sounding the trumpet for the day of the Lord is at hand, Joel 2. Although, it is true no one knows the day or the hour, I will not be surprised to the day of the Lord, because I am a child of the light, not a child of the darkness, 1 Thessalonians 5:5. This is the end. Yes, this is the end. But really it's the beginning. The beginning of our new bodies that are eternal, 2 Corinthians 5. It's the beginning the Kingdom of God. It is also the beginning of the tribulation period. We don't want to be here, as a matter of fact, we should pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the son of man, Luke 21:36.It will be a great and a terrible day, Joel 2:31. Great for those caught up in heaven terrible for those who are going through the tribulation. The good news is you choose. But choose this day whom you will serve, Joshua 24:14. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way, Matthew 7:13.But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord, Joshua 24:14
