♥ I'm a Born-Again Christian and I'm Very Thankful to the One True God for Saving Me and Being an Awesome Friend and Counselor ALL THE TIME ♥

TRUTHFUL ADVERTISEMENT: Have you ever felt extremely lonely? Have you ever wondered what the purpose of your life is? Have you realised that there is someone watching and protecting us? Have you heard about all the different Faiths but you don't know which one is true? Have you ever read the Bible and didn't understand what you needed to do to be saved?

If you have asked these questions and any others in this category go right ahead and ask me them - I have been studying all sorts of topics discussed in the Bible and though I am Not an expert, I have found answers to many questions in my studies. And I would love to help someone better understand their faith or understand what is needed to go to Heaven.

News: I have other major focuses in my life right now so I won't be on this page regularly at all. My poetry and stories are not as important as my walk with God, but I will continue to use those avenues when I have leisure time.

Luke 6:22-23 - Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of Man's sake.

To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God's law but am under Christ's law), so as to win those not having the law. To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some.

My Earthly Joys:

~> Mental And Emotional

Reading:
Spending short minutes or long hours reading a book. Usually a historical fiction or historical accounts; but sometimes books I find around the house or at the library.
I love entering worlds of Imagination and Fact!

My Favourite author is GOD!!! (the author & finisher of all things)
and the other authors I admire are:
Anyone who writes for the glory of God using the talent He has given to them!, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Charles Dickens, John Steinbeck & Franklin W. Dixon

My favourite Book is the BIBLE!! (The Living Word of God)
& other books that I take pleasure in are:
All stories about the Waodani Tribe and the Five Missionaries and All Missionaries for that matter, The Chronicles of Narnia, Screwtape Letters, Till We Have Faces, Orthodoxy, Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, The Complete Sherlock Holmes, A Tale Of Two Cities, The Odyssey, The Princess and the Goblin, The Hardy Boys Series

Nature:
The Sun ~ The great light which gives warmth and glow~ , Trees ~  Provide Shade And Life~ , Moon ~ White Light of the night ~, Flowers ~ Buds, all kinds, Sweet to Sense and Smell and Sight~ ,  Clouds ~ Gorgeous Gases which look so Fine and dense, Wind ~ Invisible to all but Touch~ , Thunderstorms ~ Power, Striking, Beating Water Drops~ ,  and Rivers/Streams ~ Gently, Torrential swiftly Flowing~  are among my favourites, But this Earth has so many wonderous Gifts from God!!  (Animals too :-)

" O To Imagine Gardens, Fields, Sky and Space, Animals and Plants!!"
Indescribable Loveliness! GOD Made This Earth for us to enjoy  and take care of; and that is exactly what I do!!

Music:
I am delighted when listening to classical and Contempary Christian music.
Music is so powerful. It affects all livings things (that have emotions). I'm very thankful that God allowed us to have music.

Merchant of Venice - Lorenzo (Act 5, Scene 1)

"The man that hath not music within himself,
Nor is not mov'd with concord of sweet sounds,
Is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils;
The motions of his spirit are dull as night
And his affections as dark as Erebus.
Let no such man be trusted. Mark the Music."

~Classical music is so serene and then it can be heart-racing.It's very thought-provoking, Inspiring and Imaginative.

History:
Studying history and Learning new facts!

My Favourite Time Periods are:
Middle Ages 500's to 1400's
England/Europe,wars/weapons,Dynasties and more!
----------------------------------------------------
American and European History 16th through 20th Centuries
Colonization, Age of Exploration, Elizabethian & Victorian England, Civil/World Wars, Revolutions (French, Russian, American etc.), PHILOSOPHY.
-------------------------------------------------

Photography:
Photography is natural technology (I don't exactly know what that means..)Taking photographs gives me Joy and Wonder. I find it great to appreciate God's creation in this way! I know that I can keep them for a long time and remember the beautiful aspects of Life. My art form =]
-I especially love taking pictures of Nature!

~> Physical

I am a firm believer in Exercise and Healthy Eating. I take Karate, Run on my own and do Summer Swim Team and strive to eat the food God made for humans (not for lab specimens). I know several things about the dos and don'ts in food so feel free to ask me any questions.

1 Cor.3:16-17:"Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are."

~> Traveling is a would-be hobby for me, if I could only do it more often.

My Favourite Countries = England, Ireland, France, New Zealand

> England is the "ideal land of History, Education and Nature", in my opinion, which is why I enjoy it. Though it is far from perfect of course.
(along with the accent - but all U.K. accents are great)
- Though I would have to say that I could never live in modern London after my first visit there. The Country is the place for me!

*If you're looking for historic cities, castles, gardens, gentle rolling pastures, and country lanes, then set your focus on England*

> Ireland - Well I would say that Ireland has always been special to me because of my heritage (though I am English too but for some reason when People are Irish it is way different) & the History, Scenery (as well as the Irish music). It's so picturesque, though I haven't visited, YET!

Austria, Germany, Czech Republic and France are all amazing in different ways. Most of all I loved Bavaria for its rich beauty and Normandy for its amazing mix of natural beauty and history!

* America may not always seem like it but it is the greatest country - By this I mean that one can, if they desire to, find a great job and lifestyle by working hard. Also the Freedom (not toleration) of Religion helps the Christian to live in greater peace.
Though we have only been a country 230 years and we are losing power and reason (> So is every other civilised country > I acknowledge that).

Favourite Sayings/Quotes:

- All you have to do is decide what to do with the time that is given to you.
- Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.
- He used often to say there was only one Road; that it was like a great river: its springs were at every doorstep, and every path was its tributary. It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out of your door, he used to say. You step into the Road, and if you don't keep your feet, there is no knowing where you might be swept off to.
- To die would be an awfully big adventure.
- Even the smallest person can change the course of the future.
- Where can you run to escape from yourself??
- Is Dr. Pepper a real doctor? I don't think he's qualified to be a soft drink.
- Eyes are the windows to the soul.
- Silence is the most powerful cry.
- Fear is the path to the Dark Side. Fear leads to Anger, Anger leads to Hate, Hate leads to Suffering.
- To a great mind, nothing is little.
- Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible.
- Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation, for 'tis better to be alone than in bad company.
- Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence. True friendship is a plant of slow growth, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation.
- Reading is to the mind as exercise is to the body.
- Sometimes, if you stand on the bottom rail of a bridge and lean over to watch the river slipping slowly away beneath you, you will suddenly know everything there is to be known.
- Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words
- Poetry is ordinary language raised to the Nth power. Poetry is boned with ideas, nerved and blooded with emotions, all held together by the delicate, tough skin of words
