I want to do a blog series on prayer to teach people with autism how to pray. This can be a confusing issue because of some of some of the wording used in the Lord's prayer and other instructions to prayer in the Bible. So I am gonna use pictures that I will search on Google images to do this. So when you come upon a link please click it and it will show you a picture of what I am talking about so that you will better understand it. Also at the end of each blog in this series I'm gonna post a song called "Manifesto" it has the Lord's prayer in the song. I encourage you to please listen to it every time you have read a post in this series. This will help you to memorize it. The Lord's prayer used in the song Manifesto is the King James Version so that is the version I will use to try to teach prayer in this series. The reason this blog is a series this time is that prayer is a very in depth subject and I really want to go as deep as I am able with it so as to help you understand prayer better. I dunno how long this series will be so please just read and enjoy. If you have any questions I encourage you to please ask and I will answer to the best of my abilities. I will admit that I don't know and understand everything but I will do my best to help you in anyway I can. No question you will ask is stupid and I will not talk down to you or anything like that. I firmly believe that the only stupid question is the question that is not asked. Also I will put this disclaimer before every blog in this series. We are gonna do this in baby steps. What I mean by that is we are gonna dissect the Lord's prayer. To put that in another way we are only gonna look at the Lord's prayer only a few words at a time. We are also gonna take a very in depth look at other instructions to prayer in the Bible and I am gonna do my best to teach you how to apply this so that you will better understand and have a better relationship with GOD in prayer. So here we go I hope you enjoy it....
"And He said unto them, When ya pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth. Give us day by day our daily bread." Luke 11-3 KJV. We are gonna focus on where Jesus says "give us day by day our daily bread." What Jesus is saying here is to ask GOD for your needs because GOD cares about all of your needs. You don't literally have to pray for bread although you can if you want to. Just basically here is ask GOD for your needs for the day and trust Him to take care of you... So when you pray I encourage you to please to keep calling GOD your Father and keep finding more and more words for Father maybe even in different languages and just try em out, keep on telling the Heavenly Father what you think about Heaven and I encourage you to go to your Church library or Christian bookstore and ask them if they have any books on Heaven and just read what those books say and tell the Heavenly Father what you think about them and how you feel about them and keep looking updifferent verses about Heaven in your Bible and use other versions to and tell the Heavenly Father what you think about those, keep thanking GOD for Jesus sacrifice for you and read what your Bible says about His sacrifice and use other versions as well, Praise GOD for everything you can think of and ask the Holy Spirit to lead you in worship and just google different styles of worship and see what you find, ask for Jesus to come again and don't be afraid. Read Revelation in your Bible and use many versions for this as well and don't worry if there is something you don't understand and ask for GOD's will in your life. Ask Him what He wants for you and wait patiently for your answer and ask GOD for what you need for the day.... GOD bless you...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWedt-bPzh4&list=PLE30F47CEA108590B&index=109&feature=plpp_video

I was baptized on Sunday April 15th 2012
Hey. As the title says I was baptized and I wanted to give you every single detail of it. I'm also gonna try to attach pictures to this of me gettin baptized. So here are the details enjoy!
Well before thinking of baptisim I had to learn what exactly that's all about. So I asked my Pastor. I will not give out his name since I dunno if he would be comfertable with that or not. My Pastor explained to me that baptism is just an outward showing of whats already happened inside. Going down is a symbol of dying to sin and coming back up is a symbol of being alive in Christ. Then shortly after that it was announced my Church was gonna do baptisms. So I asked my Pastor about that and he interviewed me. Well before this interview I was so nervous cause I wasn't sure what he was gonna ask me or if he would throw at me any trick questions. And since my Pastor reads this blog thank you Pastor for not asking me any trick questions lol. He only asked me how I came to Christ and so I told him that story which I will share on this blog another time. Then he said he knew me well enough and sees evidence of Jesus in me and said he would baptize me. Outward I was as calm as I could but inside I was thinkin "WOOHOO!!!!" So then I had to wait for a letter for details about my baptisim but since I know my Pastor on Facebook he was just gonna Facebook me the details. Well I waited and waited and waited but no details. And it was a week before the baptism and there were details that I needed to know. So after Church services I asked him about the details and so he got me the letter that I am keeping of the details I needed to know. Then later on I looked at the letter and noticed my Pastor forgot to put in what time to meet him at the Church for my baptism. I'm thinkin "ummmm Pastor I am not psychic" lol. So I facebooked him about that and then he messaged me back the time. Asked him to please spell my name right on my baptism certificate as my middle name has a British spelling cause I'm half British and many people spell it wrong. He messaged me back saying he would make sure its spelled correctly and long live the Queen! I was so tempted to message back Yankee Doodle! But I didn't. Oh well... So now baptism day is comming close and I start to worry. I worry what if the Pastor bonks my head on the way down, what if I drown, what if the water is cold, what if I say somethin stupid, what if I get suddenly sick, what if something happens and I'm for some reason unable to go and get baptized? I also remember thinkin "a week from now and I'll be baptized!" Then it was Friday and I thought "just today and tommorow and I'll be baptized!" Then it was Saturday and I thought "Tommorow I'll be baptized!" That night I couldn't sleep cause I was so nervous and excited. Then the day came. I went to morning Church services that morning and baptism wasn't until that evening. So I had all morning to sweat it out. I remember thinking "today I'll be baptized!" When someone asked me how I was I just said "nervous and excited." Kept bein told there was nothin to be nervous about and everything would be fine. My friend Tom told me that I might get emotional and that was ok and he told me that when he was baptized he got emotional. Thank you Tom for tellin me that! Then after services I asked my Pastor to pray about my nervousness and he did right then and there and reminded me that the Bible says to be anxious for nothing. Thank you for praying for me Pastor! So had breakfest at Church that morning as we do a breakfest thing once a month and its fun. Got new shoes from my friend Heather. Thank you Heather for the shoes I love them! Then went back home tried to take a nap and then the time came to go back to Church to get baptized. DUN DUN DUN!! I was as nervous as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs. My friends Rick and Therese took pictures of me before being baptized. Thank you Rick and Therese for taking pictures of me! Then went backstage and got changed. Then after we were all ready the senior Pastor came in and gave us instructions as to how to get in the baptism tub so that we don't slip and fall. He said to walk slowly sideways and to hold on to the bar. Then I find out that there will be a little black mic box and we were told to not touch it. I thought "oh great now I'll be eletricuted! Lovely!" And then I find out another group will be baptized before my group is. Now longer time to sweat it out. So we wait and then its my groups turn. I remember seeing the baptism tub and my stomache did a flip flop. I was second in line to be baptized. So my Pastor enters into the tub and he didn't go in as instructed and well he slipped. He didn't hurt himself but he looked silly. Sorry Pastor but I had to put that in lol. I remember thinking "didn't you listen to the instructions??" Then my friend Junior ahead of me says "thats why you don't go in the tub like that." Then its my turn and I go in very carefully and very slowly and I said to Pastor "I'm comming just give me six hours." Then unknown to me people by now can hear me cause of the mic and I said "I'm thankful that the water is warm." Then the Pastor said some stuff and then asked me why I wanted to be baptized. And I said "It is my gift to GOD. Like Jesus gift to me cause He died for me. I know I can't pay em back and I can't outgive GOD you said that yourself but its still a gift. I hope He likes it. (looked up at the ceiling) please like it." Then my Pastor said "He likes it." Then my Pastor asked me if my family was there and I said "yes my CR and Church family are here and could you all please stand so everyone can see how big my family is." They all stood. Thank you all for standing and being there for me I love you all. And those of you who weren't there I love you to. Then my Pastor asked me a suprise question. Now he does the suprise question! He asked me "is there anything else you'd like to say??" Might as well have said "any last words??" But then if he said that I might have fainted lol. For a second though I felt like a deer at headlights. Finally I said "to GOD be the glory." I'm so glad I didn't say anything stupid. Then just before my Pastor dunked me I said "please don't bonk my head." Then I felt my head touch the water and I started to panic as I have a phobia of drowning and I said "how long will I be underwater??" And my Pastor said "not long." Then my Pastor baptized me yay! Then I got out the water and went and dried off and changed. Then I came out and apologized to my Pastor for panicking but he understood and said it was ok. Then he gave me my certificate of baptism which I will keep. It has my name right! Lol. Then I gave him a hug and well all my friends there got hugs. I was in a real huggy mood. And from the moment of being baptised till now I feel covered by the Holy Spirit and I feel filled with joy and peace and happiness. I'm just so very happy! I wish I could throw a big party for this! When I got home though it was hard for me to wind down after that. I wish it was earlier in the day so that I could go for a walk afterwards and that would have helped me wind down. So I was up till one in the morning trying to w
ind down lol... Now for the most important thank you... Thank You Heavenly Father Jesus Holy Spirit for Your help and guidence and paitence with the whole baptism thing. Please remember GOD every single detail of that day forever and never forget it. I love You GOD. In Jesus name I pray amen.... Ok he

The Roman Road
Hey. It's Easter so I figure I'll do a blog on salvation. I did one once a while ago but this one will be different as I'm gonna do the roman road and I'll use pictures from google images to help.... Before reading the blog please say the following prayer or one like it "Dear GOD please give me Your wisdom, Your understanding and Your discernment in order to learn and understand this. Please help me to apply what I learn to my life. In Jesus name I pray amen."
Now this is a very hard road to travel the roman road. You may not like some of it. You might get angry at some of the things you will find. You might think its crazy. But I encourage you to please read all of it. Before being a Christian and being saved your status before GOD is a sinner. No matter what you think,feel,say or do you alone cannot change your status before GOD. It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle then for someone to get to Heaven on their own. Every single human being has sinned and there is no one is good. "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of GOD" Romans 3:23. http://www.flinthillschurch.com/images/allsin.gif
And no one will get away with it either. There is a punishment for sins. "For the wages of sin is death" Romans 6:23. Death meaning Hell meaning eternal seperation from GOD. Once in Hell there are no more second chances. Its eternal punishment and its real. http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&gbv=2&biw=1022&bih=571&tbm=isch&tbnid=t-ZKICtyuzFshM:&imgrefurl=http://reconcenter.com/index.php/reconcenter/ygn/&docid=bXma0wM-F77iKM&imgurl=http://reconcenter.com/wp-content/uploads/hell2.jpg&w=819&h=614&ei=jgB-T-DOHsHYiALmh53nDQ&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=623&vpy=242&dur=12750&hovh=194&hovw=259&tx=125&ty=217&sig=116399563033025264842&page=1&tbnh=108&tbnw=144&start=0&ndsp=18&ved=1t:429,r:16,s:0,i:102
There is only one alternative to this. And that is the gift of salvation through Jesus blood on the cross for you. "But the gift of GOD is eternal life through Jesus Christ or Lord" Romans 6:23. And its a free gift. You can't earn it and you don't deserve it. http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&gbv=2&biw=1022&bih=571&tbm=isch&tbnid=txM0fh3PaYb2JM:&imgrefurl=http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/Basics/eternal_life.htm&docid=-sddQFk2D_TwRM&imgurl=http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/Basics/gift_of_eternal_life.jpg&w=510&h=340&ei=ygF-T62yFuvViAK_4cCjDg&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=193&vpy=135&dur=188&hovh=183&hovw=275&tx=136&ty=97&sig=116399563033025264842&page=1&tbnh=111&tbnw=144&start=0&ndsp=18&ved=1t:429,r:1,s:0,i:70
GOD the Father provided His only begotton Son Jesus to die for your sins. Jesus paid the full price and took the full penalty for your sins. "But GOD commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" Romans 5:8. http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&gbv=2&biw=1022&bih=571&tbm=isch&tbnid=sMw9sswpQUYBEM:&imgrefurl=http://www.cellphone-wallpapers.net/wallpapers/Religion/Christian/2&docid=lmeJyresLaGEoM&imgurl=http://www.cellphone-wallpapers.net/Wallpapers/Religion/Christian/jesus-died-for-you.jpg&w=176&h=220&ei=gwJ-T4vZNOXJiQKvyZnpDQ&zoom=1
You may be wondering right now if GOD will accept you. The answer is yes. "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved" Romans 10:13. Whosoever which means it doesn't matter weather your boy or girl or short or tall or what you look like or how much or how little money you have or if your disabled or not. http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&gbv=2&biw=1022&bih=571&tbm=isch&tbnid=VtRGuwc6S5hdzM:&imgrefurl=http://jackwoodard.wordpress.com/2011/04/22/to-go-to-heaven-you-must-be-born-again/&docid=IHaiPggTuvMxqM&imgurl=http://jackwoodard.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/jesus-christ-pics-1112.jpg&w=640&h=452&ei=hgp-T4-BJ8riiALyvdWeDg&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=85&vpy=214&dur=375&hovh=189&hovw=267&tx=115&ty=118&sig=116399563033025264842&page=4&tbnh=114&tbnw=161&start=63&ndsp=22&ved=1t:429,r:12,s:63,i:301
Ok so now how do you recieve this eternal life?? Cause remember you can't earn it. "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that GOD hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved" Romans 10:9. Simply put all you do is confess out loud that Jesus your personal Lord and Savior and believe in your heart that GOD raised Jesus from the dead you will be saved. http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&gbv=2&biw=1022&bih=571&tbm=isch&tbnid=fSD_OhChO1qo4M:&imgrefurl=http://biblefocus.net/quote/confess-Jesus-is-Lord-Rom-10-9/index.html&docid=O7Rqw2EUJSwUTM&imgurl=http://biblefocus.net/files/speak.jpg&w=240&h=234&ei=7g1-T-GVOYmTiQKZ3e2yDg&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=507&vpy=220&dur=656&hovh=187&hovw=192&tx=89&ty=107&sig=116399563033025264842&page=1&tbnh=117&tbnw=133&start=0&ndsp=18&ved=1t:429,r:15,s:0,i:100
Now that you have done this and gladly accepted eternal life through Jesus alone whats next?? "Present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto GOD, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of GOD" Romans 12:1-2. This means to find yourself a Church home be in prayer about that, join a Celebrate Recovery thats a Christ centered recovery group for an hurt,habit or hang-up. Find yourself Christian friends to help you in your new walk with Jesus. Now as a Christian your dead to your sins.
Jesus went through alot for you. He was betrayed, abandoned by His disciples, arrested, beaten, spit upon, whipped, denied three times, nailed to a cross, seperated from the Heavenly Father and died just for you. If you were the only person on earth He would do all that for you. Because He loves you more then mere words can express. He would go through all that seven million times a day for you if thats what it took for you to have a relationship with Him. And while He was up there on the cross He wasn't only looking at the people below. He look right at you! Yes you personally He saw you and said "I love you this much" and bowed His head and died. His love kept Him on the cross. Then after three days He rose again. Death couldn't keep Him in the ground. Jesus now holds the keys to life and death. Jesus now sits at the right hand of the Heavenly Father. GOD doesn't want anyone to go to Hell. But even right now as I type this dozens of people are headed for Hell because they don't have this gift yet. And once in Hell there are no second chances. And death could happen at anytime no one knows when there time is up. So I asking you please to go and witness to someone this week. Don't worry about what to say GOD will give you the words. Pray for someone to witness to and for GOD to give you the words.... Now if you feel lead to please say the following prayer or one like it "Dear GOD thank You for Your salvation. Thank You for Your forgiveness. Thank You for loving me. Thank You for Your sacrafice. Please send me someone this week to witness to and please give me the words to say to them. In Jesus name I pray amen." .... GOD bless you.
Now this is a very hard road to travel the roman road. You may not like some of it. You might get angry at some of the things you will find. You might think its crazy. But I encourage you to please read all of it. Before being a Christian and being saved your status before GOD is a sinner.

"But GOD commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us" Romans 5:8. http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&gbv=2&biw=1022&bih=571&tbm=isch&tbnid=sMw9sswpQUYBEM:&imgrefurl=http://www.cellphone-wallpapers.net/wallpapers/Religion/Christian/2&docid=lmeJyresLaGEoM&imgurl=http://www.cellphone-wallpapers.net/Wallpapers/Religion/Christian/jesus-died-for-you.jpg&w=176&h=220&ei=gwJ-T4vZNOXJiQKvyZnpDQ&zoom=1
You may be wondering right now if GOD will accept you. The answer is yes. "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved" Romans 10:13. Whosoever which means it doesn't matter weather your boy or girl or short or tall or what you look like or how much or how little money you have or if your disabled or not. http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&gbv=2&biw=1022&bih=571&tbm=isch&tbnid=VtRGuwc6S5hdzM:&imgrefurl=http://jackwoodard.wordpress.com/2011/04/22/to-go-to-heaven-you-must-be-born-again/&docid=IHaiPggTuvMxqM&imgurl=http://jackwoodard.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/jesus-christ-pics-1112.jpg&w=640&h=452&ei=hgp-T4-BJ8riiALyvdWeDg&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=85&vpy=214&dur=375&hovh=189&hovw=267&tx=115&ty=118&sig=116399563033025264842&page=4&tbnh=114&tbnw=161&start=63&ndsp=22&ved=1t:429,r:12,s:63,i:301
Ok so now how do you recieve this eternal life?? Cause remember you can't earn it. "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that GOD hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved" Romans 10:9. Simply put all you do is confess out loud that Jesus your personal Lord and Savior and believe in your heart that GOD raised Jesus from the dead you will be saved. http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&gbv=2&biw=1022&bih=571&tbm=isch&tbnid=fSD_OhChO1qo4M:&imgrefurl=http://biblefocus.net/quote/confess-Jesus-is-Lord-Rom-10-9/index.html&docid=O7Rqw2EUJSwUTM&imgurl=http://biblefocus.net/files/speak.jpg&w=240&h=234&ei=7g1-T-GVOYmTiQKZ3e2yDg&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=507&vpy=220&dur=656&hovh=187&hovw=192&tx=89&ty=107&sig=116399563033025264842&page=1&tbnh=117&tbnw=133&start=0&ndsp=18&ved=1t:429,r:15,s:0,i:100
Now that you have done this and gladly accepted eternal life through Jesus alone whats next?? "Present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto GOD, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of GOD" Romans 12:1-2. This means to find yourself a Church home be in prayer about that, join a Celebrate Recovery thats a Christ centered recovery group for an hurt,habit or hang-up. Find yourself Christian friends to help you in your new walk with Jesus. Now as a Christian your dead to your sins.
Jesus went through alot for you. He was betrayed, abandoned by His disciples, arrested, beaten, spit upon, whipped, denied three times, nailed to a cross, seperated from the Heavenly Father and died just for you. If you were the only person on earth He would do all that for you. Because He loves you more then mere words can express. He would go through all that seven million times a day for you if thats what it took for you to have a relationship with Him. And while He was up there on the cross He wasn't only looking at the people below. He look right at you! Yes you personally He saw you and said "I love you this much" and bowed His head and died. His love kept Him on the cross. Then after three days He rose again. Death couldn't keep Him in the ground. Jesus now holds the keys to life and death. Jesus now sits at the right hand of the Heavenly Father. GOD doesn't want anyone to go to Hell. But even right now as I type this dozens of people are headed for Hell because they don't have this gift yet. And once in Hell there are no second chances. And death could happen at anytime no one knows when there time is up. So I asking you please to go and witness to someone this week. Don't worry about what to say GOD will give you the words. Pray for someone to witness to and for GOD to give you the words.... Now if you feel lead to please say the following prayer or one like it "Dear GOD thank You for Your salvation. Thank You for Your forgiveness. Thank You for loving me. Thank You for Your sacrafice. Please send me someone this week to witness to and please give me the words to say to them. In Jesus name I pray amen." .... GOD bless you.

The best blog on prayer ever! Part five
I want to do a blog series on prayer to teach people with autism how to pray. This can be a confusing issue because of some of some of the wording used in the Lord's prayer and other instructions to prayer in the Bible. So I am gonna use pictures that I will search on Google images to do this. So when you come upon a link please click it and it will show you a picture of what I am talking about so that you will better understand it. Also at the end of each blog in this series I'm gonna post a song called "Manifesto" it has the Lord's prayer in the song. I encourage you to please listen to it every time you have read a post in this series. This will help you to memorize it. The Lord's prayer used in the song Manifesto is the King James Version so that is the version I will use to try to teach prayer in this series. The reason this blog is a series this time is that prayer is a very in depth subject and I really want to go as deep as I am able with it so as to help you understand prayer better. I dunno how long this series will be so please just read and enjoy. If you have any questions I encourage you to please ask and I will answer to the best of my abilities. I will admit that I don't know and understand everything but I will do my best to help you in anyway I can. No question you will ask is stupid and I will not talk down to you or anything like that. I firmly believe that the only stupid question is the question that is not asked. Also I will put this disclaimer before every blog in this series. We are gonna do this in baby steps. What I mean by that is we are gonna dissect the Lord's prayer. To put that in another way we are only gonna look at the Lord's prayer only a few words at a time. We are also gonna take a very in depth look at other instructions to prayer in the Bible and I am gonna do my best to teach you how to apply this so that you will better understand and have a better relationship with GOD in prayer. So here we go I hope you enjoy it....
"And He said unto them, When ya pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done," Luke 11:2 KJV. Gonna stop there at Thy will be done. Jesus is telling us here to ask for GOD's will rather then our own because GOD knows and wants whats best always. "Jenny what exactly does that mean?? GOD's will?? I thought a will was something someone writes before they die." Good question. GOD's will is what GOD wants basically. And whatever GOD wants will happen. But we don't always do that and I'll give you an example of that. Picture in your mind people gathered and sat in Church and someone comes in and looks really upset and asks for prayer for a family member who has cancer. So then someone gets up to pray and will say something like this "Heavenly Father I ask you please to remove and cure this cancer in Jesus name may Your will be done amen." This is not what Jesus meant by asking GOD's will instead of our own. This person might as well have said "GOD we want this person cured and cured now and ya ok I'm saying Your will be done but I don't mean it cause I think its best that they be cured so just do it my way and we'll do it Your way another time amen." I'm not saying no one should ask for prayer no I'm not saying that. I'm not saying cancer doesn't matter because it does matter in fact it runs in my family. And I'm not saying GOD won't cure people or doesn't care because GOD still does miracles and GOD still loves us no matter what. I'm saying that we should pray for GOD's will not our own. "But Jenny" you might say "how do I know what GOD's will is?? Not like He left us a calender in the Bible of everything He will do." This is true there is no calender in the Bible. And this is a good question. Cause in order to pray for GOD's will it helps to know what His will is. So one way to know is just to read and remember what GOD says in the Bible and He will sometimes reveal His will there. Other times He will speak through people to reveal His will. So I suggest you pray and ask Him what His will is and when He reveals it to you what that is start praying for it and pray until something happens. But I admit I myself still struggle with knowing what His will is and that most of the time I have no idea at all what His will is. Like right now my Pastor has been diagnosed with cancer. Now obviously he needs prayer. Now I'd like to think and believe that GOD will cure him but thing is I dunno this for sure. So I prayed for him and basically just said to GOD that whatever His will is in my Pastors life do it in Jesus name. So when you still dunno what GOD's will is just simply pray "GOD whatever Your will is for this person or this situation please do it in Jesus name amen." This doesn't mean to get lazy and just say that for everything or just memorizet hat and say it for rote all the time because prayer is also conversation with GOD. And I'll get more into that in another blog. So basically here when you get to this part of your prayers just pray to GOD whatever He has revealed to you in prayer or what I suggested above... So in your next prayers I encourage you to keep calling GOD your Father and keep finding more and more words for Father maybe even in different languages and just try em out, keep on telling the Heavenly Father what you think about Heaven and I encourage you to go to your Church library or Christian bookstore and ask them if they have any books on Heaven and just read what those books say and tell the Heavenly Father what you think about them and how you feel about them and keep looking updifferent verses about Heaven in your Bible and use other versions to and tell the Heavenly Father what you think about those, keep thanking GOD for Jesus sacrifice for you and read what your Bible says about His sacrifice and use other versions as well, Praise GOD for everything you can think of and ask the Holy Spirit to lead you in worship and just google different styles of worship and see what you find, ask for Jesus to come again and don't be afraid. Read Revelation in your Bible and use many versions for this as well and don't worry if there is something you don't understand and finally ask for GOD's will in your life. Ask Him what He wants for you and wait patiently for your answer.... GOD bless you...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWedt-bPzh4&list=PLE30F47CEA108590B&index=109&feature=plpp_video

We are also gonna take a very in depth look at other instructions to prayer in the Bible and I am gonna do my best to teach you how to apply this so that you will better understand and have a better relationship with GOD in prayer. So here we go I hope you enjoy it....
"and he said unto them, When ye pray, say, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come." Luke 11:2 KJV. Gonna stop there at Thy kingdom come. What does this mean?? After all Jesus did say that the kingdom of GOD wouldn't come in such a way as to be seen. I'll use the NIV now for this verse. "Nor will people say, 'Here it is,'or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of GOD is within you" Luke 17:21 NIV. So why does Jesus say Thy kingdom come?? Well here He means something different then in the other verse and I'll save the teaching of that verse for another blog. But what He means is that you are asking for the end of the world basically. And it is a good thing to ask for. "umm Jenny" you might say "the end of the world well when it comes bad stuff will happen. The dead will rise and walls will bleed mass hysteria. How can that be good??" That is a good question. Well there is more to the end then just mass hysteria. The end of the world also means that Jesus is coming again to come and get us and take us to Heaven. That is the very basic of it I am not gonna get into it in this blog so I'll save that for another series. SO really at this part in the prayer you are asking Jesus to return. "Jenny when will this day come??" You might ask. Ok good question. Nobody knows the day or the hour even Jesus said this Himself. I'll now use the NIV. "No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father" Matthew 24:36NIV. "Jenny" you might say "Jesus and the Father are One since there is only one GOD so how can the Father know and Jesus not know??" Ok another good question. I really don'tknow I'm sorry. I have asked and the only answer I got is that this is an agreement between the Father and the Son and we just need to accept it. I suggest that you ask your Pastor about this and your Christian friends and listen to all what they have to say. Ok so in your prayers tonight I encourage you to keep calling GOD your Father and use other words for Father and please go to day one of this series for all of my suggestions, keep on telling the Heavenly Father what you think of Heaven and I encourage you to keep up looking up verses about Heaven and use as many different versions of the Bible as you can cause they all word the same stuff differently and some different wording might help you understand Heaven more, keep thanking GOD for Jesus sacrifice and praise Him and ask the Holy Spirit to lead you in worship and then ask for Jesus to come again and do not be afraid there is nothing to fear about the end of the world... GOD bless you... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWedt-bPzh4&list=PLE30F47CEA108590B&index=109&feature=plpp_video

Jesus is my Valentine
I did this blog as if it actually happened. But it didn't. None of this has actually happened. I hope you enjoy it.
It was Valentines Day evening. My sister and brother had gone to a Church function and my Mom and step-dad were going out to dinner. I complimented Mom and Danny and said they looked nice. On there way out the door Mom told me to text her or Danny if any emergency happened and that they wouldn't be long an I told them to have fun. So they left and there I was just me, Princess, GOD and other spiritual beings that I do not see. I was starting to feel upset. I didn't want to spend Valentines Day alone. Doing what I always do. I started to pray and said to GOD "I'm sorry for being so upset I just wanted a special Valentines day just you and me. I guess maybe I shouldn't have expected anything since your not a physical human being. Besides all the days are the same to you... I dunno I just wanted something really special where I could dress up and be treated like a lady. I didn't ask for peace on earth. I'm sorry I just really wanted that." I almost started to cry when someone knocked on the door. Since I was alone before opening the door I said "who is it??" Then I heard the Holy Spirit gently tell me to open the door. So I did and Jesus was standing there holding some roses and said "Hello Jenny." I stood there with my mouth open not believing what I was seeing. Finally I said "Uhh come in.." So He walked inside with a smile on His face. I closed the door and said "erm.. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to so. I'm sorry I didn't know You would actually show up. I mean I knew You could but I didn't know You actually would." He smiled and said "just relax... I have made plans for tonight.. These flowers are for you." And He handed the flowers to me. I took them and smelled them and they smelled really nice and I said"thank you." He replied "your welcome... Now if you wish you may get dressed up as I know you like to do that. And I will make things ready in here in your living room. Leave the flowers with me and I will put them in a vase for you."I smiled and and handed Him the flowers and went into my room to get ready. He said I could dress up so I put on a long pretty white dress that has princess sleeves and it has flowers on it. I also put on a pearl necklace and I wore a corsage.I went into Mom and Danny's closet to borrow Mom's white shoes that go with my outfit. Then I heard Jesus say "you have shoes that go with your outfit." Then I said "ok if You say so" and went to look in my closet and I found a pair of white shoes that went perfectly with my outfit. I then put on my makeup and perfume and I brushed my hair and I put on my gold headband. I then went into the living room and said "may I help with anything??" He looked at me and had a really big smile on His face and said "you look beautiful!" I blushed and said quietly "thank you." And I asked again if I could help with anything and He said that everything was done and I looked and there was a small round table in the middle of the living room with two chairs and there were my flowers in the middle of the table and the table had a red table cloth on it. And He got out to candles and said "these are electric candles no real flame but they still look nice. Don't worry you could throw them at the wall and they would not break and start a fire." And I said "well I dunno about You but I don't think I'm gonna throw any candles at the wall tonight." He chuckled. He also put on some soft music which seemed to come from no where. So I sat in a chair and He pushed the chair in for me and then He sat in His chair and had a bottle of sparkling cider in His hand. He opened it and it popped and I said "goes the weasel." He chuckled again. He poured the cider in the glasses and then He saw that I was starting to fidget.And He asked me "why are you fidgeting??" I replied "Sorry but I dunno who's gonna say grace." He smiled and He said that He would. Then He stood up and looked up and said "blessed our Lord our GOD King of the universe who bringeth forth bread from the earth." He sat back down and then I looked down at my plate and there on my plate was crab legs sauteed with dry sherry. And boy did it ever taste good! Then I got confused and I said to Jesus "You don't need to eat so why are You eating?? I know that I need to but You don't." He replied "It is true that I don't need to but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy it with you and it is in Revelation 3:20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with Me." So we ate and just as I finished my dinner poof our plates were clean then poof there sat chocolate cheesecake with strawberry sauce and a strawberry on top. I just barely started my dessert when Jesus said "I put a blue rose in those flowers just for you." I was about to look when I thought that maybe that was unbelief so I didn't. Then Jesus said "it is not unbelief if you look and smell the rose. I put it there for you to enjoy." So I looked and there was the blue and it smelled lovely. Then I said "wait a minute there is no such thing as a blue rose. How come it has a scent??" Jesus replied "I made that one real just for you just for tonight." I tried to eat really slow so that I could spend more time with Him. I also noticed that the hands on the clocks had stopped. Jesus then said "I have more planned after this meal and I made the time stop so that you wouldn't worry about when your family would be home so you can relax and be at peace with Me." I smiled and finished my dessert then poof everything disappeared and the flowers sat on another table and we were standing in the living room. So I asked "now what??" He replied "We will go for a nice walk." So I said "ok let me go get coat." Jesus replied "you don't need it I made the temperature warm up so that you wouldn't be cold." So we were leaving and I thought maybe I should get a flashlight then I thought "wait a minute Jesus is the light." So Jesus put His arm round me and started off on a nice walk. It was lovely and warm out. Jesus pointed out the full moon and I faked a howl. He started to laugh and said "only you would do that." After a nice quiet walk we went back to the house and went inside and He said "I picked out a movie for us to watch." I smiled and I saw that He noticed me smiling and I said"sorry I'm just happy about spending more time with You." Jesus smiled and replied "don't ever be sorry for that." So I sat beside Him on the couch and said "what movie are we gonna watch??" Jesus replied "the Jesus Film." Then I asked Jesus "Don't You feel weird watching people pretend to be You??" Jesus chuckled and replied "no that does not bother me at all... Here is something for you" and He handed me Reese's. I said "thank you." So we watched the movie but when it got to the part about Him being mad in the temple I thought He would get mad again watching it. Jesus then said "I am not angry I have forgiven." So we watched the rest and then after it was over He put His arms around meand I just leaned back and rested and neither one of us said anything. I soon fell asleep and when I woke up He was gone and I was back in normal clothes and the flowers were gone to and the clocks were back to normal and it was almost time for my family to be home. So I went into my room wondering if I dreamed up the whole thing. I then saw a card on the table beside my bed and I opened it up and it said "Dear Jenny. I have loved our time together.We will do this more in the future although you won't always see Me I am always here. I have longed for time like that with you. For you are precious to me. I love you with an everlasting love and will forever continue to love you with an everlasting love... Love Jesus." And inside the card was taped a Hershey Kiss. So I had my chocolate and thanked Jesus. That was the best Valentine I ever had... The End.
It was Valentines Day evening. My sister and brother had gone to a Church function and my Mom and step-dad were going out to dinner. I complimented Mom and Danny and said they looked nice. On there way out the door Mom told me to text her or Danny if any emergency happened and that they wouldn't be long an I told them to have fun. So they left and there I was just me, Princess, GOD and other spiritual beings that I do not see. I was starting to feel upset. I didn't want to spend Valentines Day alone. Doing what I always do. I started to pray and said to GOD "I'm sorry for being so upset I just wanted a special Valentines day just you and me. I guess maybe I shouldn't have expected anything since your not a physical human being. Besides all the days are the same to you... I dunno I just wanted something really special where I could dress up and be treated like a lady. I didn't ask for peace on earth. I'm sorry I just really wanted that." I almost started to cry when someone knocked on the door. Since I was alone before opening the door I said "who is it??" Then I heard the Holy Spirit gently tell me to open the door. So I did and Jesus was standing there holding some roses and said "Hello Jenny." I stood there with my mouth open not believing what I was seeing. Finally I said "Uhh come in.." So He walked inside with a smile on His face. I closed the door and said "erm.. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to so. I'm sorry I didn't know You would actually show up. I mean I knew You could but I didn't know You actually would." He smiled and said "just relax... I have made plans for tonight.. These flowers are for you." And He handed the flowers to me. I took them and smelled them and they smelled really nice and I said"thank you." He replied "your welcome... Now if you wish you may get dressed up as I know you like to do that. And I will make things ready in here in your living room. Leave the flowers with me and I will put them in a vase for you."I smiled and and handed Him the flowers and went into my room to get ready. He said I could dress up so I put on a long pretty white dress that has princess sleeves and it has flowers on it. I also put on a pearl necklace and I wore a corsage.I went into Mom and Danny's closet to borrow Mom's white shoes that go with my outfit. Then I heard Jesus say "you have shoes that go with your outfit." Then I said "ok if You say so" and went to look in my closet and I found a pair of white shoes that went perfectly with my outfit. I then put on my makeup and perfume and I brushed my hair and I put on my gold headband. I then went into the living room and said "may I help with anything??" He looked at me and had a really big smile on His face and said "you look beautiful!" I blushed and said quietly "thank you." And I asked again if I could help with anything and He said that everything was done and I looked and there was a small round table in the middle of the living room with two chairs and there were my flowers in the middle of the table and the table had a red table cloth on it. And He got out to candles and said "these are electric candles no real flame but they still look nice. Don't worry you could throw them at the wall and they would not break and start a fire." And I said "well I dunno about You but I don't think I'm gonna throw any candles at the wall tonight." He chuckled. He also put on some soft music which seemed to come from no where. So I sat in a chair and He pushed the chair in for me and then He sat in His chair and had a bottle of sparkling cider in His hand. He opened it and it popped and I said "goes the weasel." He chuckled again. He poured the cider in the glasses and then He saw that I was starting to fidget.And He asked me "why are you fidgeting??" I replied "Sorry but I dunno who's gonna say grace." He smiled and He said that He would. Then He stood up and looked up and said "blessed our Lord our GOD King of the universe who bringeth forth bread from the earth." He sat back down and then I looked down at my plate and there on my plate was crab legs sauteed with dry sherry. And boy did it ever taste good! Then I got confused and I said to Jesus "You don't need to eat so why are You eating?? I know that I need to but You don't." He replied "It is true that I don't need to but that doesn't mean I can't enjoy it with you and it is in Revelation 3:20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with Me." So we ate and just as I finished my dinner poof our plates were clean then poof there sat chocolate cheesecake with strawberry sauce and a strawberry on top. I just barely started my dessert when Jesus said "I put a blue rose in those flowers just for you." I was about to look when I thought that maybe that was unbelief so I didn't. Then Jesus said "it is not unbelief if you look and smell the rose. I put it there for you to enjoy." So I looked and there was the blue and it smelled lovely. Then I said "wait a minute there is no such thing as a blue rose. How come it has a scent??" Jesus replied "I made that one real just for you just for tonight." I tried to eat really slow so that I could spend more time with Him. I also noticed that the hands on the clocks had stopped. Jesus then said "I have more planned after this meal and I made the time stop so that you wouldn't worry about when your family would be home so you can relax and be at peace with Me." I smiled and finished my dessert then poof everything disappeared and the flowers sat on another table and we were standing in the living room. So I asked "now what??" He replied "We will go for a nice walk." So I said "ok let me go get coat." Jesus replied "you don't need it I made the temperature warm up so that you wouldn't be cold." So we were leaving and I thought maybe I should get a flashlight then I thought "wait a minute Jesus is the light." So Jesus put His arm round me and started off on a nice walk. It was lovely and warm out. Jesus pointed out the full moon and I faked a howl. He started to laugh and said "only you would do that." After a nice quiet walk we went back to the house and went inside and He said "I picked out a movie for us to watch." I smiled and I saw that He noticed me smiling and I said"sorry I'm just happy about spending more time with You." Jesus smiled and replied "don't ever be sorry for that." So I sat beside Him on the couch and said "what movie are we gonna watch??" Jesus replied "the Jesus Film." Then I asked Jesus "Don't You feel weird watching people pretend to be You??" Jesus chuckled and replied "no that does not bother me at all... Here is something for you" and He handed me Reese's. I said "thank you." So we watched the movie but when it got to the part about Him being mad in the temple I thought He would get mad again watching it. Jesus then said "I am not angry I have forgiven." So we watched the rest and then after it was over He put His arms around meand I just leaned back and rested and neither one of us said anything. I soon fell asleep and when I woke up He was gone and I was back in normal clothes and the flowers were gone to and the clocks were back to normal and it was almost time for my family to be home. So I went into my room wondering if I dreamed up the whole thing. I then saw a card on the table beside my bed and I opened it up and it said "Dear Jenny.

So I had my chocolate and thanked Jesus. That was the best Valentine I ever had... The End.

Prop 8
Taking a brake from the prayer series because same sex marriage is now legal in California. And I am ANGRY! How dare they allow this wickedness!! Homosexuality is an abomination! "You shall not lie with a male as those who lie with a female; it is an abomination." Leviticus 18:22 and "If a man lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination and they shall surely be put to death." Leviticus 20:13. The Church is the Bride of Christ! She should be pure, holy, blameless, perfect and without blemish. How dare they allow them to desecrate the Church this way!! "it is written," He said to them, "My house will be called a house of prayer, 'but you are making it a den of robbers." Matthew 21:13. Oh the precious Church!! GOD's holy Bride! GOD I know You said in the Bible to not pray in public but I pray like this now so that maybe others will pray to for Your Bride. GOD please I beg you do not let them desecrate Your holy Bride. GOD make sure Yourself that Your Bride remains pure, holy, blameless, perfect and without blemish. GOD I'm asking you to be the jealous GOD that you are and protect Your Bride from this wickedness! The Bride belongs to You. You died for her. Oh the precious Church! Please GOD protect her! Protect her from this wickedness. In Jesus name I ask and pray Amen.
