In this world:

Being a teen in this world is tough. We have to say, "NO!" to drugs and alcohol more than we probably would have a long time ago. We have it tough, and easy. We have phones, which have benefits and downfalls. We have computers that have benefits and downfalls. But we have one thing that some do not have, the Love of Christ.  

The Lords Prayer Part 2: (by Larry and Tiz Huch)

2. "Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven." 

• Declare by authority in the name and the blood of Jesus, "Nothing but the good and perfect will of God today." God's will is for us to have righteousness, peace, joy, divine health, and prosperity!
• Claim these things boldly for:

1. Yourself.
2. Your family (your spouse, your children, and other relatives).
3. Your church (pastors, staff, leadership, church family, and new converts).
4. The world (your schools, neighborhood, city, state, nation, and other nations).

That again is, should you want to, be said aloud. 

The Lords Prayer Part 1: (by Larry and Tiz Huch)

 1. "Our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name." 

• Our God is a good, loving, kind, caring, and generous Father.
• We enter into His blessings by praising and worshipping Him. 
• God's names reveals His nature. They show us who He wants to be within us, for us, and through us. Speak His names out loud and thank Him for who he really is in your life!

1. Jehovah Tsidkenu: The God who is my rightousness
2. Jehovah M'Kaddesh: The God who sanctified me.
3. Jehovah Shalom: The God who fills me with His peace.
4. Jehovah Shammah: The God who is there for whatever I need, whenever I need it.
5. Jehovah Rophe: The God who heals me.
6. Jehovah Nissi: The God who is my victory and protection.
7. Jehovah Rohi: The God who is my shepherd and and guide.
8. Jehovah Jireh: The God who provides for all of my needs.

 Now this is just to show you what in a way this really means, should you want to it is for you to repeat aloud.  

The Lords Prayer:

 I have a way to say the Lords prayer in 6 steps. I got it from some pastors named Larry and Tiz Huch you should check out their website: www.larryhuchministries.com
So anyways: For now I will do one step a day until we are finished so remember to view everyday (except for Jan. 1 my day off the blog) for each and every step...

3 Days until New Year's Eve!!!

I cannot wait until New Year's Eve! I cannot wait for the party!

New Year''s Party:

Wow, Aria that is so true! All of the things you listed are great! I'm sure they will help everyone! :)

New Year's Party

What better way to bring in the new year than to celebrate with friends! Here are a few tips:

1. invite people that are fun to be around. No one wants to have a party and make any one uncomfortable because there is a major sour puss in attendance.
2. exchange gifts or give out goodie bags. You want people to remember what a great time they had at your party so they come to other things you invite them too. The best way to do that is to give them something to walk away with.
3. don't skimp on the snacks. Everyone loves snacks and treats and it livens up the party, but just make sure to give variety and have enough to go around.
4. have some games or activities. You don't want your guests to be bored out of their minds, but do not overpower them with such a specific times schedule. You want to give everyone to feel relaxed and have a good time.
5. let EVERYONE stay over. At midnight, everyone will be tired and parents will not want to come pick up their children, but if you let one person stay over late, you should let everyone stay unless no knows about it except that one person.
   

I hope these ideas are helpful. I know Tilly and I are planning to have a big New Year's bash.
Happy 2011!
Aria

New Year, New You

 My family loves New Year. Just like we love Christmas. But especially New Year. Why? Because you can start over, like the year starts over so do you! If you want. You can even change a million things you do, to better ones! Like a New Years Resolution, but permanent. Like if you smoke tell yourself, "NO!" Do it with anything. After all it's a New Year, c'mon make a NEW YOU!

Christmas Is Over:

 Sigh, Christmas is over. But it was a great day! And I have thanked everyone. Well, almost... I haven't thanked the Lord for blessing me. But He should know it right? I don't wanna talk to Him! I am too busy with my gifts. He knows right? Ya, of course....


    No, sure He knows, but how would you feel if someone says, "OH! LOOK IT THIS ITS SO COOL!" but they do not thank you. Would like to not be acknowledged? No, I should think NOT! So go thank Your Lord. After all, He is the one who has given your family enough to give to you. So go thank Him.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!

Merry Christmas Everyone! Have a great time with friends and family. Eat lots of cookies, open lots of gits, and sing many carols. Do whatever you do on this day for the Lord and remember the real reason we celebrate Christmas. Remember.... This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it!
Merry Christmas again,
Aria

Tilly's Christmas Traditions:

 Aria you are so right! We all need our own traditions, here is what my family and I do every Christmas :):

1) My siblings and I wake up and look at open our stockings
2) We run and look at all the presents under the tree as we scream 'LOOK HOW BIG MINE IS!' (lol)
3) Then we wake up the mom and dad who have already been up for ages but still lay in their beds :)
4) When they come into the living room they get coffee and let us open the gifts (dad does mom sits on the couch in 'HER' spot lol)
5) We play around with our gifts....

 Now we also do the Christmas Story but that slips in somewhere in the day. :) We NEVER forget to read it. Now of course that isn't my entire day. If I told you my entire day you would be reading the blog for a week! But my siblings and I always wake up at the same time (somehow! lol) and spend time with each other before we get our parents! It really isn't something people call tradition but it is for us!

Christmas Traditions

Everyone deserves a Christmas tradition or two. Some of mine are...

1) Performing in the Nutcracker Ballet. This ballet is performed all over the world but I love when we do it because I get to be a part of it.

2)Eating Chinese food. It has been my family's tradition for many generations, and even though I am not a very big Chinese food fan, I love to spend time with my family.

3)Caroling at church. We sing Christmas carols by candle light outdoors near the lighted tree outside.

Blog Changes

Hey Everyone.... Merry Christmas Eve!! I am moving the thought of the day off to the side of the homepage so that it doesn't get moved down and you can see it all day! we are sorry for any inconvenience, but I think it will be more helpful for those who just want to glance at the blog and go.
Thanks, Aria

Christmas Eve For Others:

Okay so, you and I both know that there are other teens out there on drugs or drinking. It totally crushes my heart. Why? Because they deserve so much more, but they have been tricked. By Satan. So now, on Christmas Eve we are going to have many homeless, stoned teens somewhere out on the streets everywhere. So please, pray with me and everyone else this day. Everyday, but especially today. So maybe someone will find them and bring them to a shelter. So keep praying through out your day. Silently, out loud, I don't care. As long as you are praying. So: Thanks and May All Your Christmas' Be White. :)

Tilly's Thought Of The Day:

 Okay, so Aria was so write we do need a thought of the day. And mine is this:


    Okay, so we all need to go and become a part of youversion... it is a website and app that has the Bible. You can make notes read the Word and read other's notes. And there is something very cool called Global Share The Bible Day on Dec. 25. So take this link and become a part of www.youversion.com 

He's Painting On The Canvas Of Your Heart:

 The Lord is painting on the canvas of your heart, he is writing the pages of your life the pages of your story. No need to worry because if you are going through something tough like a close friend of relatives death, divorce, anything! Keep trusting He wrote your story He knows what you can or can't handle. There is no other way to say it. Even when you say, "But WHY? WHY? Why have you brought this upon me?!" There is a story of a woman who asked God why and he said if He told her she would still ask why. So no matter what, trust in the Lord, He wrote your story and knows what will happen. He knows you CAN get through this. So always seek joy in any situation, even though you don't want to. Remember He is painting on the canvas of your heart, so keep trusting Him.
