We Are...

Hi, everyone :)
Since I am going to Florida for my spring break tomorrow, I will leave you with a message that all of us should here: "We are the light of the world, we are the city on a hill. We are the light of the world, and we gotta let the light shine."
Let your light shine in your everyday lives. Make someone's day, smile at someone who looks sad, post encouraging things on people's Facebook walls, befriend a stranger. Do what Jesus does :)
Have a GREAT week, and I will post lots of pictures from my trip when I get back!
Remember to let your light shine.

Love, Sarah Allison  

A Man's Promise

Holy cow, what a message. A friend of mine posted this on hie Facebook page, and I feel like I am obliged to share this with all of you, especially the women. What Zach (the guy in the video) is saying is the reason why I created this blog in the first place. What he is saying should be preached anywhere and everywhere, because every single person is a child of God, and every single person should feel loved and accepted for who they are.
 "I beg of you, please do not be anyone other than who you are meant to be."
"You are worthy to be served."
"We are your brothers, and we love you dearly."
"You are beautiful."
Never forget this.
Love, Sarah Allison

You are Loved

As Valentine's day quickly approaches, I am constantly reminded of how important it is to love and be loved. Even though I don't have that special someone to celebrate this holiday with, that does not mean that I am not loved. Love is complicated because it has so many different forms. Love is difficult to describe, because it can only be felt. However, God knows how to describe it. My favorite verse in the Bible, (and probably other people's favorite one, too), is 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. In fact, I have this verse hanging right above my desk so I can be constantly reminded of how much God loves me. 

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered. It keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails." 

God teaches me to love, just as he loves me in return. He never fails me, just as love doesn't fail. When I do find the one for me, the special love I will give to them will be the kind of love God gives to me. 

So, Happy Valentine's Day! I hope it's special. Always remember you are loved.

Love, Sarah Allison 

The Stand

So I'll stand with arms high and hearts abandoned
In awe of the One who gave it all
So I'll stand my soul Lord to You surrendered
All I am is Yours
~Hillsong United

Give your heart up to Him, for He is ours, and we our His.
Do not be ashamed of who you are, or how you look, or how people see you. You are His, and you are perfect in His eyes. You are loved, you are cherished, and you are His child. In all that's bad in this world, you are not a cause of it.
Listen to this song, lift your arms up to Jesus, and sing your loudest. I just did. Praise, Love, be amazed by His presence.

Love, Sarah Allison
