God has been showing me things today that I need to change. Jon and I were talking about the anti christ and what the bible says he will be like. I was asking him questions, such as, will Christ return while the anti christ is here, or after the anti christ has some time on the earth? We were saying that when God comes will I want to be sinning in any manner? Or will I want to be praying, serving, ect?
I have been struggling to guard my eyes. It motivated me to be ready. It really opened my eyes that I need to be ready at all times for Jesus to come, to encourage others, to share the gospel, ect.
Please pray that I would listen to the promptings of God, and to be ready at all times.
Thanks for reading!
Many blessings!

At Braden's house
Today I am at my cousin Braden's house. My Grandma Phyllis is here for the week and she invited me to come and hang out... so I did. I am doing school until he gets home from school. We are having a great time!
Today I have just been thinking of how awesome my family is. I am so greatful for Lauren, Jonathan, and Brandon. The Godly example they set for me is amazing. Most children my age don't have that in their life. My incredible sister in-law, Rachael, is a true blessing. I have always thought she would be a great sister, but I never thought she would be mine. Rachael, thank you for the Godly example you set for me, and for the encouraging sister you have been.
My one in a million parents are so good to me. Without them, there is no way I would be anything close to who I am today even though I am the sinner of all sinners, and the least of the righteous. Thank you mom and dad for the awesome parents you are!
Family's are so important. You should treasure the family God has given you. Set a good example for your younger, and even your older siblings. And bless your parents by your actions.
That's just what has been on my mind today, so I thought I would post it on my blog.

Tulsa games :(
Saturday, we went to Tulsa for a basketball game. I don't know the girls scores, but they both lost. :( Here are the guys scores:
JH guys: 23 - 51
V guys: 22 - 71
We played Tulsa Noah Jaguars. They were great! :( It was good for us though. We saw things that we need to change, and will change them.
Today I have been spending time with my family. We have had a really good time!
That's all I have right now.
May the Lord truly bless you throughout the week!

Fun Weekend!
This Saturday I had a great time with my family. We don't get together as much as we used
to, and it's a pleasure being with them. We had a great time to fellowship with one another, playing, laughing, and just having a great time.
I also went with David and Mark Fagala and Caleb Burnett to the Ford Center to watch PBR (professional bull riding). It was a blast!
Today Jon, Dad, Mom, Blake Compton and I went out to eat after church. It was a lot of fun being with each other. After we got home Jon and I went to wash my grandma's car. That was an honor to help her. We've been at her house playing cards and visiting with her. We don't come over as much anymore so this was a real joy for me.
So that has been my weekend
Manny blessings!!!
(Happy (late) Valentine!)

The Lord's Prayer (Scripture for the Day)
In Glory Seals we have been memorizing the Lord's Prayer. The writer (Chris Wall) of the A Life Worth Following Journal about Justin Sullivan's life, said that Justin always took a little bit of scripture and memorized a little bit at a time (such as 1 verse a week). My dad thought that was a great idea so he is doing it in Glory Seals. So we memorized 1 (if they were very short, 2) verses a week. My dad figured out that if you memorize 1 verse a week from the time you are 12, to the time you are 80 (if you live that long) you will memorize around 3,000 verses!!! WOW!
So here is the exact translation and scripture we just finished:
Matthew 6:9-13 (King James Version)
9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Wednesday-(should be) Saturday...but Friday! :)
This week my parents went to 10killer Lake. They left Wednesday and were going to come home Friday… the power went out at the cabin (when we got sleet, they got ice). So the power went out Friday, late afternoon. They decided to pack and get ready to leave just in case the power didn’t come back on so they wouldn’t have to clean in the dark. It didn’t come on so they came home tonight (Friday).
This Wednesday night throught Friday, I stayed at the Myers house. From B-ball practice Friday night I went to the Perkins house. I am staying here tonight and my dad will pick me up tomorrow morning.
This week has been a lot of fun… but I’m ready to see my parents. They should be home now.
That’s about it.
Many blessings!!!
