OK! Back to our attributes of God ;)
God is Beautiful
“For the holy spirit, God’s gift does not want you to be afraid of people, but wise and strong, and to love them and enjoy being with them” 2nd Timothy 1:7
“His glory covered the heavens and his praise filled the earth. His splendor was like the sunrise; rays flashed from his hand, where his power was hidden.” Habakkuk 3:3-4
Beauty defined::
having beauty; having qualities that give great pleasure or satisfaction to see, hear, think about, etc.; delighting the senses or mind: a beautiful dress; a beautiful speech.
2. excellent of its kind: a beautiful putt on the seventh hole; The chef served us a beautiful roast of beef.
3. wonderful; very pleasing or satisfying.
–noun
4. the concept of beauty (usually prec. by the).
5. (used with a plural verb ) beautiful things or people collectively (usually prec. by the): the good and the beautiful.
6. the ideal of beauty (usually prec. by the): to strive to attain the beautiful.
So, yeah this is beautiful defined! Our God gives us pleasure, when we think about him! In fact he’s the only thing that gives us pleasure in our lives! The only one that really can give pleasure, the right kind anyway! He makes us want to act like we are “beautiful people” Delicate, things that are nice to talk about, and to think about..that’s what we want to do ..we want to be pleasing to our beautiful God! And if our God is more beautiful, and we are acting like him..we will become more beautiful!

Ugh...ok right so..this weekend was snow camp..as will be everyweekend for me except this next weekend...coming up im going to go home for a funeral! I am not up in my room, and therefore I cannot put up a specific word..that starts with "a" that God is..but this weekend I just really learned how faithful God is..to give us strength when we feel like we can't do anything, that it isn't about us, so even when we are down and we feel like we cant do anything anymore we have to chose to keep going because trusting God is the importance...getting these kids the gospel, and having them understand how much God loves them...*Sigh* the most important thing! 
It's a daily struggle for me, atleast...to fight off the facts that we want to be incharge some times..but how funny is it that we have nothing without Christ, we aren't in charge even when we think we are!! =] God is so good and i am so thankful for the prayers of the weekend and the continued prayer <3>

Day 4...5..and 6? LOL
Ok,
So if i get a chance I will most definitely make sure to put up the next word, that starts with A, to describe God..right now I do not have that time! Meanwhile..this weekend was an amazing time just to see Gods strength, and the furthering fact that when God has something for you..there is no stopping it! When you know God has you to do something you should not be walking away from it asking if it may be right..yeah its right and you need to be doing what God has for you to do or you are never going to have joy in your life! He has also showed me this week that when you do what he has for you to do you are going to be so much happier then if you were just going to do what you thought was best, because come on people lets face it, God's will is always best :0
I know it's a shocking thing to think about now isn't it? ;) Anyway..also this weekend i got to work snack shack, and outside...God is teaching me to be humble, with maybe people i don't always want to "Deal" with, and also showing me how to have a good time serving him ^_^ ....so all in all that was my weekend. This next weekend I will be counseling so I wont be able to write, so from Friday-Sunday morning don't expect anything ;)
Be praying..a lot of things are going on all at once, and snow camp needs some prayer <3>

Day 3
Before I start day 3 (which is the word Amazing...btw) I wanted to share a little something from
the book i am currently reading called "Lord, change my attitude before it's too late"
I was reading this part on complaining, and how the Lord HATES complaining! and you know
the kind of complaining he hates the most? the kind when we talk about how hard our life is,
and why is God letting us go through this...(Now let me note that he said complaining is when
something isn't wrong and we just talk and do nothing about it) NOW ok you understand we
all have things in our lives we dont like, and yeah so they had this verse and it hit me hard...
conviction is a beautiful thing sometimes .... Hebrews 12:5,6 "Do not regard lightly the
discipline of the Lord..for those whom the Lord loves he disciplines" and you know I was
thinking, when we ask to be sanctafied..(which is the will of God) we need to be stretched,
disciplined to be more like our God..so why are we complaining that God is making us stronger
yes it hurts, trust me I know..im going through it currently, but it's our....job to trust in him...
hmm...good stuff right there, if you ever get the chance to read it you should!!!

Day 1
Right, well I suppose I should start off by saying this is my 2nd blog. I am going to make this one about...God everyday...or atleast im going to try everyday, the weekends might be sketchy in the months of jan,feb and march because of snow camp! But, im going through this book called "the everyday guide to God" So i thought it'd be cool to share my readings, and thoughts with you!!! Invite your friends, your mom...anyone! :-D
...so here we go...
Day 1::
God....A
Absolute::
"Incomparable, omnipotent, sovereign"
Psalm 86:8-10 Among the gods there is none like you, O Lord; nor are there any works like your works. All nations whom you have made shall come and worship before you, O Lord, and shall glorify your name. For you are great, and do wondrous things; You alone are God
So i decided to look up what Absolute meant, and heres what i got guys and dolls
1. Loosed from any limitation or condition; uncontrolled; unrestricted; unconditional; as, absolute authority, monarchy, sovereignty, an absolute promise or command; absolute power; an absolute monarch.
2. Complete in itself; perfect; consummate; faultless; as, absolute perfection; absolute beauty.
...snap complete in itself....doesn't that show us God exactly?!?! perfection, unconditional, as in his love towards us...loosed from any limitation!!! FAULTLESS....
This is quite an uplifting thing if you ask me, to say our God is Absolute is to say that he is faultless, complete in himself, perfect, sovereign, unrestricted, he is so great! He cannot be stopped...HE is our strength! and thats why we can do anything with him...:) It's amazing to know how truly great our God is:)
Hope you enjoyed!!
God bless
...so here we go...
