T.N.R.P.L.A.E.P

  Hey, Josh here! Today I"m going to tell you about my title.T.N.R.P.L.A.E.P. stands for some of the things that God wants us too know about from the Bible. Just recently my mom went on a retreat to a cabin up in colorado and came back with the strangest saying! Well, I asked her what it means and she said "whatever is true,noble,right,pure,lovely, admirable, excellent or praiseworthy, think on these things. 

   Just recently I went too my parents and confessed a sin that has been bothering me for a long time and I just couldn't seem too get rid of the nagging feeling of guilt that was hanging over me. I had the hardest time telling them what was going on! It was so hard, but my wonderful parents talked me through what was going on. They prayed and prayed for me for a long time trying too get me through this. I,with my parents help, turned my life back over too Christ!

   It was amazing!!!!!

    Today I feel so much better! It was like a heavy burden was suddenly lifted off my shoulders!! I feel so relieved. All that too say God will forgive you no matter what you've done!!!!!

   P.S. here are some verses that helped me through this!!!!!
    
     Phil. 4:8   and Phil. 2:12-13!!!           
             thanks Joshua B. Walton (a.k.a.) walton # 5

Hey Josh, I know how hard it is sometimes to work through the sins that try to steal us away from God. Just remember this: no matter what you have done, you are never away from Him, and no matter how bad you feel, how low you sink, how much you may think that you messed up TOO MUCH, there is nothing that you could ever do that would make Him love you any less. Nothing. I'm so glad that you see the importance of letting Him lead your life now. He has a plan for you, He knows your name, and all He wants for you will never stop amazing you. Keep choosing to let Him be your Lord everyday, and remember, the things in this life can so often get you down, and sometimes, it's so hard being a Christian when you have the struggles and you think of all you must give up, but on the day when you meet the Lord, I promise you, one look into His face, and you will say "it was worth it all!"
