A little about me!

I kinda like this site a lot more then xanga! lol.

   Well, my name is Cortney and I’m 17. And I go to Dare2Believe youth group.  I’ve grown up as a Christian, but my mom and dad really didn’t attend church too often. My grandma was definitely one of my “rocks” in life and she still is now too. I also went to a small private Christian school and that pretty much set my faith, plus got we were I am now.

  It’s been rough and kind of tough not having parents in the church with me. I would experience different things in church and come home telling my parents and they really don’t get it because they haven’t experienced it for themselves. For an example, a couple weeks ago my church had a “Healing and Holy Ghost Meeting” and it was like from 6pm-9pm and we definitely didn’t get home until 10:30ish and my mom said “Wow! I can’t believe you’ve been gone that long. What have you done all this time?” I wanted and tried to explain to her but I knew she wouldn’t understand. So I told her that it was just an amazing time with God.

  I would’ve loved for her to have been there and experienced the same thing with me. Yes, my mom does go to church sometimes, when she wants but it seems as if she’s going to church to make my grandma (her mom) happy. And that’s definitely what it’s not about. But all I can do is pray for my mom and dad, and pray that one day God will open up their eyes and heart and show them what He is really about.

So that’s just a little about me and my background. I’ve probably chatted you’re ear off a little to much. LOL!

But I do want to leave you with some verses in Pslams ::

Pslams 5:12 …

For surely, O Lord, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield.

Pslams 40:16 …

But may all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; may those who love your salvation always say “The Lord be exalted!”

 Pslams 121: 7 & 8 …

The Lord will keep you from all harm– he will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.

And lastly, one of my faovrite books in Pslams!

Pslams 150 …

Praise the Lord! Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his might heavens. Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing greatness. Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet; praise him with the harp and lyre, praise him with tambourine and dancing, praise him with the strings and flute, praise him with the clash of cymbals, praise him with the resounding cymbals. Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!

Be Blessed!
