Sorry I have not been writing lately , I have had the most busy week ever & my computer was not working . I feel that God is really changing my life in amazing ways I have tripled my bible reading(from 2 chapters to 7 chapters) and my devotional is absolutely awesome & is touching my life , I have realized that God has gifted me with an awesome family that I should not take for granted . We think that we can just fight with the people God has put in our lives & not make time to connect with our siblings &/or parents because we think theirs always tomorrow to make up that lost time but sometimes their is not a tomorrow . We waste away the little time we do have with them , thank the Lord I realized that I was doing this very thing with the gift God had given me my brothers and parents & changed it . Their are so many broken up families in our world , I am so thankful that God Has given me an awesome loving family that helps me grow in my faith.
Something I read in my devotional was that if we are truly a follower of Christ , we grow and learn in our faith every day and every moment of our lives . That hit me , I was kind of thinking of Jesus as a free ticket to Heaven , deep down I was saying I got admission to Heaven now it does not matter what I do , but I was wrong if we do not grow in God and change our ways than we are not truly surrendered to Him and if we are not surrendered than God cannot change us. I felt down , & was not growing in my faith ? God can changed that when I let Him , He can do the same for you.

Dearest Precious Daughter Elisha:
Our Saviour Christ Jesus is changing us all by sending us a helper, Holy Spirit. My heart rejoices when I see you growing in Christ because I Know He is our Saviour and the only Way to Life here and Eternal Life in Heaven.
We are so blessed by Jesus that you are in our family and it is a privilege to call you daughter. Mom and Dad Love you soooooooooo much. I am thankful that Christ is changing our whole family so we Live out His Will for our Lives every moment of every day. I am also thankful for His Grace and and Forgiveness that He has given us all as Children of God.
He gave us each other so we can learn to Live out our Faith Together, forever.

Momma OOO
Elisha,
It's really great that you and your family are that close. You guys seem to be an awesome family, and i'm glad that you aren't taking that for granted.
As for the Lord changing us, you were bang on. We need to allow the Holy Spirit to move in our lives and mold us into better people as well as mold us into better followers of Christ. He has so much mercy, which is one of the best gifts that he provided us.
Anyways, i hope that you have a wonderful day!
ps. We missed you on Wednesday! Let me know if you have a prayer request or anything that you would want to talk about :)
