The name f my blog if you have been wondering comes from the fact that we should never surrender to sin even when faced with death. I didn't choose to call it that because thats how my life is, no I chose to call it that so that everytime I saw it, it would be a reminder too me to never give up. One of the big things that I have been learning lately is that faith is super important, and without it I can't follow God. Obvious right? Well ya, but I had never really taken the time to figure out what that means and because of that I see now that I still like to hang onto some areas of my life instead of letting God have them. I don't want that I want to make God my number 1 forever and always. It's all about intentiionaly giving up your whole life. God is so great and if you are struggling with this 1. your not alone, and 2. his plans for you are so much greater then you can imagine.
The other thing is that we need to control our tounges. Life and death is in the power of the toung (thats scripture) our thoughts become our words, our words become our actions, our actions become our habits, our habits become our chracter, and character is everything. (Sam Mayo quote) it starts with our thoughts because out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. Our tounges reflect our hearts, so when our hearts are messed up or our thoughts then we speak evil, we speak against God. We have to allow him to come in and take control of our tounges as well as the rest of us.
Thats what I have been thinking of lately.
As a cool side note I think it's a God thing, but I've found a couple of amazing bands the last few days! One of them like my own best friend Holly is an amazing musician and really has a heart for God. One of her songs is called surrender. Her name is also Holly. I wonder if she likes coffee. I think they kind of look alike which really throws me off hahaha.
