If Only

If only...
The whole world could sing for one Agape Love
So that we would all have a lullaby for
Our hearts to hear.


If only...
We could embrace one another in Agape Love
Anywhere we went
Then there wouldn't be broken souls.


If only...
This world could see His song
So there would be no more dying hearts.



If only...
This world could hold Agape Love
Before their souls are gone.

My Song of Prayer

Sing me a song of prayer
As I weep for them
These days grow darker
Because the rain threatens to fall
Nothing can erase these scars
As I think back to our yesterdays


I'm sorry I did not tell you sooner
And now you are so far away
The words have left my lips
My eyes fill with tears
As you sing my song of prayer


Life is like a mist in the wind
So fragile it breaks with the
Slightest touch
We smile as we live normally
Until the day comes when
They are gone, and we left
Them alone


Sing my song of prayer once more
For old time's sake
In hopes that in the future
No more hearts will break

A New Beginning

So, another day I feel anxious to do something active, yet, I did nothing of the sort.  Sad really, but I just can't think of anything to do.  But within the past weeks I've come to a realization that I am, in fact, a wallflower. I tried to convince myself, as well as other people, that I wasn't when in reality I really am.  I've been living in my comfort zone for far too long and I think it's time to take a breath, close my eyes, and take that first step out into the open.  I know that so many people have tried to be friends with me, but because of a past of mistakes and hurt, I  really didn't care. All I wanted was to be left alone in my own little world of impossible dreams, and numbness.  It's something I've grown tired of and I'm ready to run the race.  So now I'm proud to say "Hello world, It's Mia and I'm ready to take on anything God has put in my path!  So bring it on!"

Greetings!

Well, I guess I haven't been keeping up with my blog as I had hoped.  But in my defense I was busy with craziness. ANYWAY! I do have a book for you guys even if it's not Sunday! yaaay!

A lot of people know Eric as the Scottish athlete who won gold in the  Paris Olympics 1924.  But not many people know about his mission life In China after that.  He was an honest, hard working, strong Christian man.  He gave much more than he had expected to receive and never tried to put the spotlight on himself even with all the fame his athletic talent gave him.  reading about Eric makes you reflect on your own life and think about how you have been or how you can use your talents to honor God before anything else.

Life under Contruction

Kids my age are always going through things and having troubles.  Some of the many reason are because of absent parents, bad crowds, influences at school, celebrities ect. And many times over I've seen misunderstandings between child and parents, which doesn't help the situation.   You are probably wondering where I'm going with this, but it's something that's been swimming around in my mind for some time now.  As I watch teens rebel against their parents and parents getting frustrated and taking it out on the kids that are causing it, I wonder what the story is on both sides.  On one side, the teen could be going through something and feels like they can't tell the parent.  And on the other side the parent might be begging on the inside for the teen to open up to them but doesn't know how to show that.  I'm not trying to be an expert, but it's something I see all the time.  Rebelling kids is the message that is sent out in pretty much everything we watch, read, and listen to.  Being a kid myself I can't give advice because I myself am VERY inexperienced in MANY things, but I know that I can admit that to anyone and everyone.  A lot of kids my age won't do that, I've had friends tell me that they can't wait to move out of the house and be on their own and it breaks my heart to hear them say that. "Freedom" is what they want, but they don't realize just how much they need their parent's love and advice because they're too stubborn to admit that they can't do everything on their own.  Which leads to rebellion and leaves parents scratching their heads in frustration.  Again, this is just something that has been swimming around in my noggin and I wanted to try and bring the situation to light the best way I could.  But, as we live we see that our life is under construction in some way or another and God is the construction worker making His masterpiece, and this was just to help some realize it and to help them get back on their feet.   Just like it says in the book of Jeremiah 29:11:


"For I know the plans I have for you," says the Lord. "They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29:11

To some this may just seem like another "religious freak's" blog who's trying to get you to go to church or something.  But I hope that, to at least one person, this blog and this entry helps in some way or another.

Book of The Week!

That's right, it's back!  The book of the week is going to be popping up every Sunday.  This book is a great one to have teenaged daughters read, it shows the struggles of the modern lure of independence in a feminist world for young women.  As you read about Margret Paget's life struggles and joyful moments the book give an over all warm feeling.
