Ladies and Gentleman, The President

So on Tumblr, I am doing a "30 day challenge". For 30 days, it gives you something to blog about. So today's "challenge" was "Who do you think would make a good president?" I answered just like this:


Who do I think would make a good president? This guy. No. Not Jim Caviezel (although he would make one darn attractive president). Jesus Christ. He would be the perfect president because…well, He’s perfect. He would sacrifice. He would love unconditionally. He would be wise. He would be powerful. He would be merciful and graceful, but still be just and righteous. He wouldn’t be self-centered, deceiving, or unfair, because He’s Jesus Christ. He would be the best president this world has ever seen. :)

Thank you JESUS.

(I am about to leave and catch a plane, so this post will be rather short.)
So with Thanksgiving coming up and whatnot, I have been thinking about thankfulness. What will you be thankful for this Thanksgiving? I know what I'll be thankful for. I'll be thankful for the wonderful family God has given me. For the incredible friends that surround me everyday. For a roof over my head, food to eat, and clothes to wear. But most of all, I will be thanking Jesus for dying for me. Thanking Him for His grace and mercy and unfailing love He gives me everyday, when I never deserved it in the first place. I'll be thanking God that I just woke up.

Shout with joy to the Lord, all the earth!

Worship the Lord with gladness.

Come before him, singing with joy.

Acknowledge that the Lord is God!

He made us, and we are His.

We are his people, the sheep of his pasture.

Enter into his gates with THANKSGIVING;

Go into his courts with praise.

Give thanks to him and praise his name.

For the Lord is good.

His UNFAILING love continues forever,

and his faithfullness continues to each generation.

-Psalms 100 (NLT)

To the Anon

Sorry guys-Blogger is being kinda weird and won't let me reply to ya'lls comments. I try to reply and atleast say thank you, but Blogger tells me I can't. But just to let you know, I see them, and they always encourage me. :)
An "anon" (as I call those who comment anonymously) posted and asked about my other blogs. Well, anon, I actually have two other blogs. One is a blog where I post poems that I write (it doesn't get updated quite as often), and another one is a blog that is similar to this one, I just post more about other things besides just God (like music, my life, things I like-it's more "personal" I guess you could say). You are welcom to look at them! If you click here, you can see my poetry blog, and if you click there, you can see my other blog.
Thank you so much, Anon, for your comment. It always encourages me to know that people are reading and responding to my blog. :)

Incredible Inspiration

I read this book a few years back (and I want to purchase my own copy and read it again). It’s called “I would Die For You”. It is about a boy named BJ Higgins. When he was 15, he felt God calling him. He decided to go on a missions trip to Peru. There, he caught a disease that took his life. His story really inspired me. His life amazed me. His devotion to God left me wanting to be like him. He is a huge reason I began blogging about my life and Christ. He used things like the internet and his way with words to reach out to his friends and help them in their walk with Christ and win them to the Lord. His life made me want to change mine. He made me want to be like that. As soon as I read that book, I opened up Facebook and began posting. A few days later, I opened up a blog. I now have two blogs. One of them is read by people all over the world-I have at least one person in every continent reading it. The other has 117 followers. I went on my own mission trip to India. I now feel like God is drawing me to the missions feild. The life of BJ Higgins inspired me to live mine totally for God. He would’ve been a great person to know on this earth, and when I get to heaven, I would be honored for him to be one of the first people I meet.
