An awesome word from Max

Ok this was just posted on Jenny Kutz aka Janice Olivia's website by her brother Max Kutz, and i read it and it was just such an awesome word i had to share it so here it is i hope it moves some of ya'll like it did me :)


Hey family!
As I’m sitting here, I’m eating animal crackers, listening to a song my friends wrote and writing to you all. I am presently driving in the GO Ministries tour bus on our way to Viborg, South Dakota (I know it sounds like cyborg doesn’t it? Don’t worry. We’ve all thought it.).
If some of y’all didn’t know… This year, I have been (and will be next year, actually) traveling around the world changing lives, fighting the powers of darkness, and living the life that people dream of. Not to mention I’m traveling with the greatest people on the planet.
But, as I’ve traveled, hung out with amazing kids from youth groups around the world, and sat under the anointing every single day, I’ve realized one thing… God’s Love.


Ephesians 3:17-19 says, ” And I pray that Christ will be more and more at home in your hearts as you trust in him. May your roots go down deep in to the soil of God’s marvelous Love. and may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love really is.May you experience the Love of Christ though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be filled with the fullness of life and power that comes from God!”


His love for us is so vast. So deep, so high. It’s understanding that Love that gives us this power.
It’s understanding not only that we love God. But that He Loved us first. That He sent His Son just do die for us.

He says in Hebrews 13:5b:
“For He (God) Himself has said, “I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support. [I will] not, [I will] not, [I will] not in any degree leave you helpless, nor forsake nor let [you] down, [relax My hold on you]. – Assuredly not!”


He will never fail you nor will He ever give up on you, His Love is never ending and knows no bounds.
Think about it: the God of the universe, the Man who created everything around us (who created us!), who does things on a God-sized scale, loves us enough to want a personal-sized relationship.


He loves us too, no matter what we’ve done. He’s pronounced us innocent by the Blood of His Son.
He loves us. He loves me, He loves you.
And He wants you to know that everyday.
God is Merciful.
You are loved.
God is Love.
You are innocent.

-Max.

Ok well i just got back from the Jimmy Needham concert and it was amazing i love hearing him sing :) well i thought i would share the lyrics to my favorite song by him (well one of my favorites lol) its called Hurricane and a pic from the concert.Well i hope you enjoy :)





I have built a city here
Half with pride and half with fear
Just wanted a safer place to hide
I don’t want to be safe tonight

I need You like a hurricane
Thunder crashing, wind and rain
To tear my walls down
I’m only Yours now
I need you like a burning flame
A wild fire untamed
To burn these walls down
I’m only Yours now
I’m only Yours now

I am Yours and You are mine
You know far better than I
And if destruction’s what I need
Then I’ll receive it Lord from Thee
Yes, I’ll receive it Lord from Thee

I need You like a hurricane
Thunder crashing, wind and rain
To tear my walls down
I’m only Yours now
I need you like a burning flame
A wild fire untamed
To burn these walls down
I’m only Yours now
I’m only Yours now

And it’s Your eye in the storm
Watching over me
And it’s Your eye in the storm
Wanting only good for me
And if You are the war
Let me be the casualty
‘Til I’m Yours alone
I am only Yours
I am Yours alone, Lord

I need You like a hurricane
Thunder crashing, wind and rain
To tear my walls down
I’m only Yours now
I need you like a burning flame
A wild fire untamed
To burn these walls down
I’m only Yours now
I’m only Yours now

Come be my hurricane

Just Be You

The overall picture that you have of yourself varies from situation to situation. Different environments bring out different things in all of us, maybe in school you are confident but socially you're not. You just need to find a way to be the same person no matter what. This comes with time, age and experience, so don't be too rough on yourself. When it comes to self-esteem, patience is a virtue. As time passes, life gives you the opportunity to grow and become more confident in the idea that you have the power to change the things that you are unhappy with. One of the easiest ways to help you feel better about yourself is to focus on your achievements. Specifically, the ones that are unique to you. Do you sing? Are you a really good writer? Are you a great listener? Are you amazing at Algebra? Maybe just being a good friend to someone who needs you or by tutoring students who are struggling with math, can make you feel special and needed. Just find something that is unique to you and then do the best you can.

A Broken Shell

REALIZE THAT "Being me is the best thing I can be." There is not another me out there and God didn't create us to be copies of someone else. Don't rely on someone else to tell you how you feel and don't depend everything you are on them, because in the end, they can't save you.
Living in a shell and hiding who you truly are is not a way to live you're life. All that you end up with is misery, and who really like to be miserable? Ususally everyone goes through the phase in their lives where they hide away in a shell, hiding all their feelings and the uniquiness that makes you who you are. Who cares what people think about you, you're not living for them anyways. And if you spend all your time looking around to make sure everyone else approves, you will miss out on what really matters.
Just go out there and show them who you really are. Trust me, You won't regret it.

It's fun to be crazy and outgoing, don't let anything or anyone hold you back from living you're life to the fullest. You'll just waste you're life away and realize that they were never really worth it.

You are loved, and worth more than anything. You are a limited edition of yourself and there will never be another you. So live life to the fullest and don't hold yourself back, don't put yourself down, and don't let others get you down. None of that really matters anyway.

I love to just let go, be myself, and have fun. Don't let anything hold you back from that.
SMILE AND LIVE IN COLOR!


This was written by one of my best friends i wanted to share it because it's amazing and i know it inspired me, and i hope it will do the same for you. :)

People

People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime.
When you know which one it is, you will know what to do for that
person.
When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need
you have expressed.
They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with
guidance and support,
To aid you physically, emotionally or spiritually.
They may seem like a godsend and they are.
They are there for the reason you need them to be.
Then, without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient time,
this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an
end.
Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away.
Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand.
What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire
fulfilled, their work is done.
The prayer you sent up has been answered and now it is time to move on.
Some people come into your life for a SEASON, because your turn has
come to share, grow or learn.
They bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh.
They may teach you something you have never done.
They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.
Believe it, it is real. But only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons,
things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional
foundation.
Your job is to accept the lesson,
love the person and put what you have learned to use in all other
relationships and areas of your life.
It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.
Thank you for being a part of my life,
whether you were a reason, a season or a lifetime.

Message in a Bottle

I just finished reading Message in a Bottle by Nicholas Sparks so i thought i would share some of the book.

This is the first letter that was found in the book.


July 22, 1997
My Dearest Catherine,
I miss you, my darling, as i always do, but today
is especially hard because the ocean has been singing
to me, and the song is that of our life together.I
can almost feel you beside me as i write this letter,
and i can smell the scent of wildflowers that always
reminds me of you.But at this moment, these things
give me no pleasure.Your visits have been coming less
often, and i feel sometimes as if the greatest part of
who i am is slowly slipping away.
I am trying, though.At night when i am alone, i call
for you, and whenever my ache seems to be the greatest,
you still seem to find a way to return to me.Last night,
in my dreams, i saw you on the pier near Wrightsville
Beach.The wind was blowing through your hair, and your
eyes held the fading sunlight.I am struck as i see you
leaning against the rail.You are beautiful, i think as
i see you, a vision that i can never find in any one else.
I slowly begin to walk toward you, and when you finally
turn to me, i notice that others have been watching you
as well."Do you know her?" they ask me in jealous whispers,
and as you smile at me, i simply answer with the truth.
"Better than my own heart."
I stop when i reach you and take you in my arms.I long
for this moment more than any other.It is what i live for,
and when you return my embrace, i give myself over to this
moment, at peace once again.
I raise my hand and gently touch your cheek and you tilt
your head and close your eyes.My hands are hard and your
skin is soft, and i wonder for a moment if you'll pull back,
but of course you don't.You never have, and it is at times
like this that i know what my purpose is in life.
I am here to love you, to hold you in my arms, to protect
you.I am here to learn from you and to receive your love in
return.I am here because there is no other place to be.
But then, as always, the mist starts to form as we stand
close to one another.It is a distant fog that rises from the
horizon, and i find that i grow fearful as it approaches.It
slowly creeps in, enveloping the world around us, fencing us
in as if to prevent escape.Like a rolling cloud, it blankets
everything, closing, until there is nothing left but the two
of us.
I feel my throat begin to close and my eyes well up with tears
because i know it is time for you to go.The look you give me
at that moment haunts me.I feel your sadness and my own loneliness,
and the ache in my heart that had been silent for only a short
time grows stronger as you release me.And then you spread your
arms and step back into the fog because it is your place and
not mine.I long to go with you, but your only response is to
shake your head because we both know that is impossible.
And i watch with breaking heart as you slowly fade away.I find
myself straining to remember everything about this moment, everything
about you.But soon, alwats too soon, your image vanishes and
the fog rolls back to it's faraway place and i am alone on the
pier and i do not care what others think as i bow my head and cry
and cry and cry.

Never Forget

Your presence is a present to the world. You're unique and one of a kind. Your life can be what you want it to be. Take the days, just one at a time. Count your blessings, not your troubles. You'll make it through, whatever comes along. Within you are so many answers. Understand, have courage, be strong. Don't put limits on yourself. So many dreams are waiting to be realized. Decisions are too important to leave to chance. Reach for your peak, your goal and your prize. Nothing wastes more energy than worrying. The longer one carries a problem, the heavier it gets. Don't take things too seriously. Live a life of serenity, not a life of regrets. Remember that a little love goes a long way. Remember that friendship is a wise investment. Life's treasures are people . . . together. Realize that it's never too late. Do ordinary things in an extraordinary way. Have health, hope and happiness. Take the time to wish upon a star. And don't ever forget . . . Not even for a day . . . How very special you are.

To Save A Life

Ok i just went and saw the movie "To Save A Life" and i'm speechless, it was so awesome and powerful i would recommend it to anyone and everyone, it really opens your eyes to the decisions you make in your life and how everything can affect you and dont judge people or pass them by just cause they look a certain way cause you never know if you ould be the light in that persons life and if you could be the one to SAVE there life.So thats my thoughts on that movie hope it helps and please give me your feedback.

Welcome

I just wanted to say welcome to my blog, i will be using this blog to help people and just to give my thoughts on different things and i will be posting alot of inspirational things on here and just some of my favorite stuff that helps me and well some i think is funny :D well thats my welcome and i hope you enjoy my blog.
