Revolution

My best friend Mikael and I have been going to a Youth Group in Lowellville, Ohio called "Revolution." I love the people there dearly, they're so sweet. :). The facility is beyond incredible and they have a fantastic youth program. Their worship band starts things off and that's always fun! Allison is the lead singer and everytime she performs, it moves me. Her passion is just indescribable. I love it!

Tonight instead of Pastor Ortiz giving the sermon, Senior Chris Poullas did! I loved every word he said but it really got me thinking. I've been too caught up in my summer that I've failed to put God first. That has got to change. That isn't who I am or who I want to be. Faith comes first. I need to set time aside to be alone in my thoughts and prayers with God. Nothing else. No distractions. Just us. And I'm going to do just that. But prayer isn't the only thing that I'm going to change. I'm going to be less judgemental and more caring. I want to make a change for not just my life but for those around me. I want to be that change.

So, like Allison told me, "My heart is to see everyone get closer to God and I think worship is the fastest way to Him!" Which leaves me with these two words: Hawk Nelson.

Shaken
"These hands are dedicated to change."
"Lord use me, take me where You want me to go."

From Underneath
"I'm reaching out to take my Father's hand."

Friend Like That
I'm dedicating this to all of my friends! I love you guys. :). You're always there for me when I need you and I hope that I can return the love. Thanks for everything! ♥

  1. Okay, the top two songs are in my top 5 Hawk Nelson songs. Allison was still in high school playing the guitar when I was there. I'm glad your growing. Like...no words to describe what it's been like to watch you grow and change over the past three years. Love you!!

  2. Take Me is amazing, too! Sad thing is I was a fan before their cd came out. A friend introduced me to them and I was hooked. :P
