Today we had to finish building the wall that will protect our house. Once we do that we place a sign in front of our wall so nobody will enter. Mine craft is boring and difficult, but I think it will be fun to see the ending product for our recrafted city.

Yesterday was our first day today on Minecraft. I still strongly dislike the game. I just do not like it or enjoy it.

Out of all five senses that exist. There is only one that is my absolute favorite. That one would be touch. Touch is an absolutely amazing thing.    Though all the senses are really such a blessing, touch just happens to be my biggest blessing. It really has an impact on my life.

Without the sense of touch, I wouldn’t be able to play my favorite sport. Which is cheer leading. Cheer leading is a big part of my life. Without touch I would be completely incapable of  participating in it.   One other big deal is hugs. If you are a super lovable person like me and absolutely love hugs you would understand where I am coming from. Hugs are great and enjoyable. Without touch you wouldn’t be able to feel the love of  a hug or feel the warmth when you are cold.  Without touch you wouldn’t be able to feel the things around you. Without touch you could seriously hurt yourself..even though you wouldn’t feel it. It still is not a good thing. Touch has been and always will be my favorite. Though a disadvantage of touch would be pain..if you didn’t have it you wouldn’t be able to feel the good and better things in life.

Without touch my life would be different, and would definitely go down hill.  I wouldn’t be able to have near as much fun, feel all the love, or be able to do and participate in all the joy that life brings you. Having the sense of touch is such a big blessing. I think I would fall apart if it weren’t for it!

                                                             Rock Solid

Everybody has that one person in their life that they can trust and turn to at anytime. Your rock. Someone who has the light of Christ shining through them so bright that it is almost blinding. Always there for you. Capable of leading my life down the right path. Well, I have that one person!

My mother is my favorite person that walks the Earth. No matter what I do she will always love me and care for me. She is a person true to her word and never lies. If I didn’t have her I would be falling so hard and nobody would be there to catch me.

 

Anytime I need her she is right by my side, through the thick and thin, standing guard over me. She is a role model who has taught me to fight my insecurities and to not care what other people think of me. I feed off of how she acts and who she is. She has taught me to push myself and to stay “one” with the Lord.

 

Having a dedicated mother like her is such a blessing. Her caretaking and unconditional love is beyond what I could ever ask for, because surprisingly there are people out there who don’t care about their child and leave their child longing to be loved.

 

No matter what curve balls life may throw, she stands next to me and takes my pain away, not letting my spirit down. She does not let my insecurities get the best of me by reminding me how beautiful I am inside and out and keeps me focused. And after everything we have been through and the storms God has asked her to walk through, she is still dedicated. Standing up; rock solid, like one big mighty hero.

Glorious Golden Gates

You knitted me together

you love me in any kind of weather

I am your servant

you are my shepherd

 

you created me for a reason

to live eternally forever

I know I won’t die

you’ve said it in scripture forever

 

 

till’ the day I die, I’ll wonder

what I have been living under

I really do wonder

what is it like in front of those glorious golden gates?

I really can barely wait

 

 

one day you’ll come

my heart beating like a drum

we will lift off the ground

to your heavenly place

and I will stand to enter at your glorious golden gates

 

 

you’ll let me in

my eyes will a wonder

how something this great could even exist

I could describe it, but it’d be too long of a list

 

 

heaven,oh heaven

this glorious place

Thank you God

for letting me enter

through those glorious golden gates
