Full Access.

We often have places where they are restricted. Whether it be at school, home, work, and just about anywhere. There's that one room or drawer which you can't open. No matter how much you want to open it you just can't because you aren't allowed.

God is awesome, powerful, and influential. Our access to God has NO restrictions. Jesus had opened up the way for you to go and meet with his Dad. There's no appointment system, no secretaries, and no "Come back later."

There's no need to knock. He's there waiting for you and I. Walk towards God because he has a welcoming smile and open arms just waiting for you.

That One Smile.

That one smile can just make someone's day.
I have this one friend which he can do just about anything to make me smile. He's that one friend which i turn to and his simple smile makes my day.

Smiling at someone doesn't take much effort. It can always make someone's day. After going to Kenya for a mission's trip i realized that one simple smile can brighten someone's day. Seeing those sad faces while driving around the slums i thought to myself, "If i smile, what will happen." And so i tried that thought and their faces instantly lit up. It was just amazing to see that smile on their faces.

Seeing all these smile just make my day. A simple smile can make someone's day.

He Sees It.

God sees everything. There's nothing you can hide from him. The widest, most complex view. He sees it all at once. nothing escapes his warm smile. His loving gaze. His watchful care. His limitless love is just for you.

I feel that sometimes when I'm struggling i think that God can't see it. But I'm wrong. He CAN see it. I try hiding things from my friends and sometimes it works but at other times you need to come up front to them and tell them what's up. With God, he sees everything and he waits for you to confess because once you do, it'll bring a warm smile to his face.

When you're at school, he sees you. When you're at home, he sees you. His eyes are everywhere. There's no way you can hide from it.

You are the apple of God's eye.

Thanks!

Philippians 1:3 says, "I thank my God every time I remember you."

This verse is a verse that is engraved on a ring that i have matching with my friends. Although i don't see them anymore, i still need to thank God for them. Without them, i wouldn't be who i am today.

I feel like many people take their friends, family, relatives, etc. for granted. They don't thank them for what they've done. We often don't say anything because we may be lazy. Laziness shouldn't get in the way of a few words.

Friends are those who stick to us when we're in the worst conditions.
Family, we may not like our family but there's no way we can change it. We'll always have the same parents, siblings, and have the same birth order. They know you inside and out. They've seen you every step of the way. I gotta admit that i can be really dry to my family. They might've frustrated me or it was just because i was in a bad mood.

A simple "Thanks!" can make someone smile. I learned that from my mission's trip to Kenya. Stepping into a country that is completely opposite from Canada was just a slap in the face. I realized that some of them don't have a family to go home to.
We have to thank God for everything. JESUS. Food. Friends. Shelter. Family. School. EVERYTHING. He's given us so much more than we deserve.

We must thank God for everyone who's entered our lives. We may not like them but God put them in your life for a reason.

One simple word can make someone's day. Just say it. Thanks.
