Take that!

 

I love when celebrities actually respond back to stuff that is completely untrue, this case its not the Kardashains themselves its Forbes. Deff worth a read, article link is below. Bible study is going good, my laziness of having to type up my notes is what is delaying the next post.

Bible Study: Day 1

Cool as diary that Brian got me for Christmas :) thanks.

So no creative title for this blog post yet but I am currently doing a bible study on the New Testament, starting in Matthew, reading 3 chapters a day. I didnt really have a specific book that I wanted to study, I just wanted to know more. I have this massive as bible with so much in it! I found this website that gives you a guideline on what to read each day to reach your goal! If I am consistent with my 3 chapters a day I should be finished in 3 months so... starting in Matthew and working my way through to Revelations. MASSIVE challenge but this will be such a achievement for me once I finish. I thought it would be cool to kind of keep a online journal of my thoughts with this study in note form so I don't know if this will be interesting but this is just what I got out of it. Yah, anywho, here goes.

Matthew 1-4 

• Don't always trust your head, Trust God,  He will reassure you.  Matthew 1:19
• Be faithful, listen to the commands. 
• Baptism, letting God flow over you. Washing away our sins. Every time someone is baptised, the heavens shall open. God said, " This is my son, whom I love, with him I am pleased." When we are baptised we are fresh full of spirit then..
• Chapter 4: We are at the risk of being tempted. The devil is knocking on our door, every minute. 
• Jesus is so gangster and perfect (that's what I wrote lol) 
• Every reply to the devil is so calm and flawless. I don't really know how I would keep my cool. 
• Jesus was given the chance to have all the things the devil was tempting him with, one being, having the opportunity to rule all the kingdoms in the world, then and there and being tempted in such a weak time (physically, he had been fasting for 40 days) but He stayed strong, knowing his rights in God. He pretty much has the best rep now, ruling over all the people that have ever walked this earth. Staying faithful leads to endless amounts of blessings. 
• Matthew 4: 10 And the devil left him. Just left, it goes to show in weak areas the devil will try to feed on our areas of weakness but when we stand strong in the God we know, preach what we know. The devil is pretty much gaping it left right and centre. 
• Stand in what you know, you don't need to recite a message but know that God loves you and he will protect you whenever you need Him. 
• Matthew 4:16: The people living in darkness, have seen a great light, on those living in the land of the shadow of death, a light has dawned.
• He knows His stuff, the man! Repent for the kingdom of heaven has come near. 

Final musing: Jesus just dedicated his entire life to God and his word. It just literally blows me away. These days we have so much going on, Jesus didn't even persue (from what I know) a wife or a job that gives him a lot of money, he just focused on God. We should be 100% aiming to be just like him. Ahh I am so in love right now. 11:50pm Monday 9th 2012

Words I don't know the meaning of: 

Define: 
Winnowing: Blow a current of air through grain in order to remove the chaff... ( ?) 
Deter: Pretty much to discourage someone. 

Family Rules To Live By :D

Wedding + New Year 2012

I am getting married this year! So major saving is taking place this year, which is about major discipline. Having no bills this year is a major relief! Really no excuse to not save. 


Which leads to my oh so cliché New Years Resolution check list! 

• Wedding Savings
• Restricted License...yes, I'm feeling the judgement vibes. 
• Car! doesn't have to be a  Ford Explorer but its time to own a new set of legal wheels, vital for a marriage I think too. 
• Some how with all this saving and expectations I'm setting for myself I am going to continue to eat healthy with weight watchers help AND exercise a minimum of 3 times a week. Major advantage to having 6 weeks holiday is there is no excuse to not work out 5 times a week. Feel sorry for my sister when she walks into the lounge to find a heavily breathing kick boxing Amy glaring at her. Would scare anyone in my opinion. Close to 10kgs down, but aloooong way to go! 
• Do a bible study. Something I know absolutely nothing about, I am more then ready to learn more about Him. God's prob gonna have to pull me along the way sometime this year.
• Be more patient. 
• Take more photos. 

"..Cause you wanna take my picture..."

Say what you want but Kim Kardashian is just beautiful. Kudos to her for having a brave front as she gets butchered by the press. Break up's suck, what's worse is ending a marriage on international TV. Icky. I still love her ♥ 

This year something I really want to improve in is my photography, I would say I'm pretty creative and having a kinda decent camera I think this is something I can work on. I am trying to take a photo everyday this year. Not necessarily posing pictures, but things that I find beautiful through my eyes and attempting to capture it on my camera. Here is a few I have taken so far:
