take bon jovi for instance....

I recently googled scriptures on complaining....and came across this article...
which was fantastic.
http://www.victorious.org/complain.htm

I know my campaign is funny..and in theory it is easy to follow.... but sometimes i follow it half and not whole heartedly..but i'm not perfect and neither are you..i think...
i still dry heave a little negativity every now and then...and it is gross.. but this article made me a little more passionate about wanting to have a complete life style change...
especially this part..."Regardless of whatever circumstances may cause discontent or dissatisfaction, complaining is always an expression of unbelief toward God’s order in our life.
"
I don't want the Lord to think i don't believe in him...but anytime we are upset with a circumstance...it is ultimately saying to the Lord that we don't like what he has planned, and we think it should look better...ughhh shot through the heart...(bon jovi is in your head now...admit it)....speaking of bon jovi...we are giving love a bad name when we complain...aren't we christians supposed to have our game together?? don't we have the bigger picture to work towards...we have been given the keys to the kingdom...

no matter what...we trust in Him. no matter how hard...we believe his way is perfect.

one happy hippie

I HAVE A NEW CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Praise the Lord He never disappoints when he blesses!!!!!!!!!

i no longer drive a huge red van...i still can't even believe it..but my previous worries about my free spirited hippie ways (see older post), have been put to rest...because what i drive doesn't depict who i am...it just looks a little better...safer...what have you :)

bigger picture.

i saw this story today and my heart leapt for joy. God is moving in this world, despite us Christians who aren't. Please take the time to look over these images, and don't forget to be incredibly convicted. This is what Love is:

...i received bad news...

the car i wanted was sold....
BUT......

On the BRIGHT side.......

My BEAutiful Lord has "the one" out there for me...i just assumed it was the first one i saw :)

Oh and...i've started a diet...and i started working out..but i might stop, because my body is sore from these enormous 5lb weights i've been using. and i don't have the stomach muscles to be able to do crunches...so i guess working out is not cut out for everyone ;)

till then,
a little song to keep your heart full of joy:

Come away with me...

apparently, a blog is something that you keep frelsh...and updated.

i'm not so good at that....i could say that in german btw

Life has been cold, dreary, and dark...well outside it has been that way...but inside...my heart...it's been a fight to stay Yellow...no not like a chicken..but happy, joyful. I started a campaign...you might have heard of it..."Vomit- sunshine- no- matter- who- vomits- negativity- next- to- you 2011 Campaign"..what you haven't heard of it? weird.
basically, i'm so done with negative people, it was weighing me down...which is redic to the max, because i am not responsible for their happiness, and i shouldn't feel bad that i'm happy. disclaimer: my life is not perfect. my marriage is not perfect. my hair isn't always perfect. and sometimes i smell (i no longer where antiperspirant...)
HOWEVER,
we serve the most wonderful Lord, and each day he makes a day for me..for you, for us..."Today is the day the Lord has made, i WILL rejoice and be glad in it."
that is pretty amazing.
Sometimes i get affected by something...as recently as last night..but this popular campaign i started on Sunday...is not ending anytime soon.
Do you know that stress kills more people than cancer? yeah..i read that somewhere...don't ask where..who knows...i'm called fun fact frieda by some..because i know all these random facts that i know are accurate but when producing the article...i just can't...
all i know, is that i'm young, and up until life got stressful, about 2 years ago...and i started feeling like i had aged 40 years...that is crap.
my campaign, which is wildly popular, is for health, sanity, and all things grateful.

You can join if you want, but either way, i would prefer you not try to darken my day with your crap..because it will just wear you out...misery loves company...but i'm not feeling sociable.
