"Chantal L (Yes, there is MORE THAN ONE Chantal.), will you accept this rose?"

Hey peeps! So. I'm sure some of you watch the show, "The Bachelor". Dumbest. Show. Ever. Anyways. Yes, I happen to watch it. Why, you ask? Because there is never anything else on TV. ANYWAY. If you are watching this current season, 'Brad' is the current Bachelor. Personally, I'm not a fan of him. He has a THERAPIST PEOPLE. Is that not an indication that MAYBE you WOULDN'T want to date him?! And really, the idea of the show is just wrong. It's one dude dating 8,000 CRAZY girls. How creepy is that?! He makes out with any girl he finds. CREEEPERRR. So this season, there is this girl, named Michelle. Am I the ONLY one that think's she's OUTTA HER MIND?! She's like, CRAZAYZY. She's like: "Brad is MINEEEE. And I'll elbow whoever gets in my way! -elbow thrust-" How creepy is that?! I would say, DUMP HER, BRAD. So, this season isn't really looking up, in my eyes. Most of them are crazy. Anyways. Here's hoping the dude get's a brain cell and picks someone decent. Thanks for listening to me ramble. ;P I'll blog again soon!

"Fail."

Hey peeps! As some of you may know, the term "Fail" is quite popular these days. For example: If you mistakenly spelled something wrong on lets say...Facebook. And then someone commented and said: "Fail.". Thats the definition that is popular these days. So, last night, I started thinking about the meaning of the word, 'fail'. And it was right when I was about to go to bed, so I then read my Bible (as I always do before I go to bed.). And the verse I read every night (Psalm 33:18) says: "But The Lord watches over those who fear Him; those who rely on His unFAILing love." In case you didn't already notice, the word "Fail" is in that verse (in a different form.). And look what it says..."Unfailing love.". Those words really stood out for me-Unfailing. Doesn't EVER fail, EVER. Thats some pretty powerful stuff! In Brandon Heath's song, "Love Never Fails", it talks about love. (First verse, and chorus:) "Love is not proud. Love does not boast. Love after all, matters the most. Love does not run. Love does not hide. Love does not keep locked inside. Love is the river that flows through, Love NEVER fails you." Some pretty great stuff. No matter what we do, what we say, love never fails. God never fails. How amazing is that?! God is like, BEYOND generous. Can you imagine being in His situation? If your son (or daughter) came to you, had done some TERRIBLE things, would you still love him? God would. There isn't any bigger love then that. So in the new year, keep love in mind. Because: "Love never fails you."

"Tomorrow is Christmas, its practically here!" (Not quite. But anyway.)

Hey peeps! So, obviously, its almost Christmas. Just a few days away! I can't wait. But I'm a little sad-Soon all the happy, holiday season-ness, will all be gone. Then we'll all go back to our normal lives. Work, church, (Piano, for me.) all that stuff. Kinda sad, really. Anyway. Back to the Christmas festivies! From the picture above, I obviously like The Grinch. You know, the Christmas special we all know and love. Its always been my FAVORITE Christmas special. I'm not sure why, I just always loved it. And up until recently, (a few moments ago..) I never really got the 'lesson'. So, here it is: During the special, it talks about the Grinch HATING Christmas (which I find nearly impossible to do, in my opinion.). And during the half-hour, he steals all of the town's folk's Christmas decorations (Because he thinks if he gets rid of all the stuff, it'll get rid of all the Christmas spirit, also.). And right as he is about to throw it off a cliff, (very original..) he hears the people down below (The Who's.) singing. Which made, "his heart grow 3 sizes, that day.". So, he then returned all the Christmas stuff, realizing the true meaning of Christmas. Of which, is: Christmas ain't about presents, decorations, all that mumbo-jumbo. Its about LOVE. Which I completely agree with. It IS about love! What kind of love, you ask? Jesus' love to US. (I know I've talked about this about 8,000 times already, just trying to get the point across.) (I kinda doubt The Grinch talks about the same love that I'm talking about, but I'm just sayin'.) ANYWAYS. Lets get back to my Beth Moore sermon. Jesus' love is the ONLY thing that "grow's our heart's 3 sizes". He's the ONLY thing that will put that Christmas spirit into us! So, basically, my point is: Its Jesus' way, or the highway (trust me, you do NOT want to go down the highway. It ain't pretty.)
Well, that concludes the longest 'Grinch' blog post ever. Thanks for listening to me ramble. ;)
I'll blog again soon-Merry Christmas!

Welcome to December!

Bonjour Peeps! Welcome to December! The most wonderful time of the year. Don't you just love December? I sure do.

I love everything about December (except the coldness...lucky Australian's.). What do you like about December? My favorite part is Christmas-Celebrating the birth of our Savior. Hope ya'll have an awesome December!
