praying

Please join us in prayer for Allie's Papa and repost email this information please! I believe prayer works and I believe if its Gods will that Allie's Papa will have a miracle in his body! I think so many times we pray and pray and we dont get the results "WE" want and in the time "WE" want them and we give up. God's timing and answers may not be the same as ours so dont stop praying and we need to have FAITH that what we are praying for will answered! I think a lot of times we pray and answers come and we forget to give Praise and Glory to God for the answers! So check out SHELLEY'S blog for more information on this case or just pray for healing and Gods will to be done!

LOOKING AT IT FROM MY VIEW...

I REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND POLITICS IN ANY FORM OR FASHION. NOR DO I REALLY CARE TO UNDERSTAND IT. I USUALLY TALK WITH PEOPLE WHO DO KNOW A LITTLE BIT ABOUT IT TO UNDERSTAND IT TO A POINT BUT FULLY UNDERSTANDING IS WAY BEYOND ME! SO WHERE AM I GETTING AT WILL ALL OF THIS.... I HEARD SEVERAL PEOPLE COMPLAININGABOUT HER " NEW PRESIDENT" AND WHAT HE IS ALREADY DOING WRONG AND HOW BAD THIS COUNTRY IS GOING TO GET!

I DON'T KNOW IF HE WILL BE A GREAT PRESIDENT, A BAD PRESIDENT ,IF HE IS QUALIFIED, OR IF HE WILL MESS UP AND HURT OUR COUNTRY

BUT I DO KNOW THAT I SERVE A MIGHTY GOD WHO IS IN CONTROL NO MATTER WHO OUR PRESIDENT IS OR WHAT OUR PRESIDENT DOES. WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR ....IF YOU ARE SO CONCERNED GET ON YOUR KNEES AND CRY OUT TO GOD! GOD IS OUR HOPE, OUR FUTURE, OUR ETERNITY! WE SHOULD HAVE OUR FOCUS ON HIM AND WINNING THE LOST TO HIM, WINNING THE ONES WHO HAVE STRAYED AWAY BACK TO HIM! I BELIEVE THIS WOULD TAKE CARE OF CRIME, CHEATERS, ABORTIONS, DRUG AND ALCOHOL ADDICTIONS, JEALOUSY, PRIDE, MONEY PROBLEMS, AND WHATEVER THE NEED MAY BE GREAT OR SMALL! A SIMPLE PRAYER CAN MAKE SUCH A BIG DIFFERENCE BUT WE SIT AND COMPLAIN BUT NEVER TAKE ANY ACTIONS......

WHY DON'T WE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THESE THINGS....THAT DOING SOMETHING CAN BE AS SIMPLE AS PRAYING!!! SO INSTEAD OF COMPLAINING PRAY.....

i decided to have a lil fun...

i was on Dean's page and he did this "mad lib" inauguration speech generator so i thought i would to...so here it is...if i would have gotten the chance to write his speech this is what you would have gotten.....too funny. try this and see what you would have written! bold words are mine

Barack Obama's Inauguration Speech

My fellow Americans, today is a cautious day. You have shown the world that "hope" is not just another word for "test", and that "change" is not only something we can believe in again, but something we can actually destroy. Today we celebrate, but let there be no mistake – America faces puzzled and uninterested challenges like never before. Our economy is repulsive. Americans can barely afford their mortgages, let alone have enough money left over for vacations. Our healthcare system is quaint. If your elbow is sick and you don't have insurance, you might as well call a painter. And America's image overseas is tarnished like a softball slingshot. But jogging together we can right this ship, and set a course for Rocky Mountains.Finally, I must thank my fragile family, my motionless campaign volunteers, but most of all, I want to thank idiots for making this historic occasion possible. Of course, I must also thank you, President Bush, for years of talking the American people. Without your mysterious efforts, none of this would have been possible.

ARKANSAS RAZORBACKS!!!

YES, i love me some RAZORBACKS! I love watching football, basketball (girls or boys), baseball, softball, gymnastics, and what ever else! My parents also follow the Razorbacks! My dad loves football and mom and i like football but we LOVE some basketball! I'm trying to talk them into going to a game as a family! I'm sure it will not be that hard to get them to agree! Do you have a team that you follow like this? We have tons of razorback shirts, hoodies, jerseys, and whatever else you can think of! We sit outside around the fire to watch football and I'm sure my neighbors think we are crazy! LOL WE ALL YELL AT THE TV LIKE WE ARE AT THE BALLGAME! I'm sure none of you do that! As I am typing this mom is yelling at the basketball team! Basketball season is finally here and that is my favorite sport to watch! I am just ready for our teams to have an awesome year! Our Girls and Boys are past due for a good season! I know our time will come but i just hope that time is soon! Winning year or losing year ill always be a HOG fan!

what team or teams do you follow? and Why?

who and when?!?!?!

Ok, so im really happy with life except for a few things!! One, I am ready to be done with school! Two, Im ready to find my husband! Three, Im ready to have a real JOB!!! Ok so those are the only three things and two will happen at the same time! I will graduate and get a real job! WHICH ISNT TOO FAR AWAY!!! Number two is the one i am really worried about the most! I have been married before but it didnt work for many reasons! One our relationship was not based on God and His will for our lifes! So this time I am praying God sends me someone and that when HE does send that special someone that He will be a Godly man! I have several things that i will not overlook this time!I did the last time and i refuse to this go around! Here are several things i am looking for in someone and these are the things that have to be there..... A Christian, family loving, enjoys friends, and has goals in life! I am a very family and friend oriented person! I love to go and do and I also enjoy setting goals in life and reaching them! I come from a big family who gets together every holiday and any other reason we can think of. I want my husband to enjoy that and join in and also start our own FAMILY traditions! I want to spend time with friends together and him go with his and me with mine! I want us to have goals as individuals and as a couple! HE MUST LOVE GOD AND BE A CHRISTIAN MAN WHO SERVES GOD!!! I know God will send Him to me and he will have all these things and more but i just wonder when that time will be! Im getting close to 30 and if i decide to have kids it needs to be sooner and not later! So I just pray God answers this prayer soon!


SO who will God send to me and When is the question i ask.... I dont know who and when God will send that special someone to me but when HE does I know it wil be awesome...Ill keep you updated and when God sends him to me you guys will be the first to know!!!!

LOLA is back

I have LOLABETH for a few hours today! Today has been an awesome day... great weather, i met Jeff and Rylee for lunch at the Huddle House! Then i went to the church and had a great visit with some friends! Now im spending the afternoon with LOLA! She is such a sweetheart! We have went to town, took a few pics, saw Mrs Joyce, and now waiting on my mom to get home from work! Tonight im spending some time with friends from my sunday school class!!! what a great day God has blessed me with!!!

my MAJOR

I am going to school to become a Respiratory Therapist! Im really excited about this and i really look forward to graduating and serving! I became more interested in RT when my aunt was diagnosed with several lung problems! She never would listen to her RT because she HATED her and so her mild case became MAJOR in a very short period of time! I want to be a respected RT who loves and cares for my patients from my heart! I love people and i love to help and serve them so i should be ok!

I thought i wanted to graduate and become a "traveling RT" but im going to pray and see what direction God has for me! I know by seeking His will for my life that Doors will be opened and closed according to His will for my life! I WOULD LOVE TO TAVEL TO BIG CITIES AND DO SOME INNERCITY MISSIONS WORK! so i am praying for God to show me the way!

SPRING 09

i hate to lose

ok so last night after Rylee who is FOUR almost beat me at some games in Wii and i started to get mad and I realized i may have a problem! I also show a lot of emotions and say things i might shouldnt say, i get mad, i throw fits, and anything else you can think of! Jeff (Rylee's Dad) is the same way! Lexy ( rylee's mom) is the opposite and i dont understand how she can be like this! I play all things to WIN not to just be there but to WIN and it doesnt matter if its cards, wii, sports, or whatever i play but i play to win! Jeff , Lexy, and I were playing bowling on the Wii and i wasnt doing to good and it was bothering me and jeff wasnt doing to good either so we were talking trash to eachother and i was saying "i suck" and Lexy always just sits there and enjoys laughing at us! Yes she is on bedrest and never gets off the couch and still bowls good so this makes jeff and i mad! Jeff and I take up the entire living room and you would think we were really bowling! LOL but back to my reason for this post!!! Jeff had to go do some things and Rylee wanted to play so we started playing different games. She was actually good and was beating me and I found myself getting mad about her doing better then I was! So we continued playing and I was teaching her to talk trash to me!! It was so cute and then she did something BAD and yelled " I SUCK" and i was like OH MY....she sounded just like me!! BUT THAT WASNT A GOOD THING!!! I realized i was teaching her a bad attitude and was i so caught up in winning that i couldnt just relax and have fun with a four year old! but as we continued to play she lost cuz i wouldnt let her win and she said Im not playing anymore and I asker her why and she says cause i didnt win!!! OH MY what have I taught her!

Yes i think its good to be competitive but i do think you can take this overboard! Or is it ok to be like this! NO i have to stop second guessing this and realize i have to work on this!

Lexy im sorry for teaching Rylee this bad attitude after losing so i hope i can show her how to be competitive without being a bad looser! lol not sure if i know how to do that yet but im going to work on this!!!

POWER of PRAYER!!!

Tonight i went to Steve and Teri's house for our monthly PRAYER GROUP! I was trying to find excuses not to go and let things get in the way to distract me from what God had for me but PRAISE God I didn't! We had a some what new crowd tonight and God really moved in a powerful way! Not only are we going to pray for our needs and desires but we are going to do a study on Praying For the Lost! and this is an awesome study! I never realized how important it was to pray for the lost and that is was our responsibility to pray for them with Faith! I never realized that they didnt have the Holy Spirit to convict them! So im praying for the lost in general and im also praying for a few people in my life that are lost! To see God save souls is awesome and so I pray God uses me and lays people on my heart to pray for daily!

I also have a few people who are Christians that im friends with but are not living a Christian lifestyle so Im praying these people come back to God and stop being lukewarm and choose to live a life pleaseing to God!

Tonight was awesome and we were honest with each other and we lifted eachother up in prayer....some praying for distractions in their lifes, some praying for health conditions, some praying for their children, praying for their past to be removed!!! wow to hear people cry out to God and knowing that HE hears i prayers and answers them according to HIS will for our lifes! He may not answer them like we think they should have been answered but we have to know that God is there no matter what the answer or how he answers our prayers! the precence of God was so STRONG tonight! I needed to feel God tonight and i did!!! Thank you GOd for moving in my life when i needed to feel you the most! I give you the praise and Glory for what you are doing in my life!

so if you know someone who needs prayers, or someone who is lost please email me and ill will lift them up ashleehillis22@yahoo.com

GOD IS AWESOME

Today was just an awesome day to be at IBC!!! I arrived at church early to practice with the Youth Drama Team! We practiced and then had breakfast together! Sunday School was next and i just love our class. We are really open and very honest with our thoughts! We debated if death penalty was right or wrong today and i thought it was going to get ugly but it didnt! I will not get into that with this post but it was interested to hear some of the others views! Then it was time for service! Wow God was at IBC today! I came ready to worship and to recieve all God had prepared to give me! I also recieved peace and guidance today so im thankful God spoke to me!!! We sang a few songs and then i gave my testimony about what the prayer group meant to me personally! I just spoke from my heart! Then the UTH performed a human video to I CAN ONLY IMAGINE! It went great! The devil tried to mess it up but we didnt let him and praise God the devil didnt win! The ending we had to turn on black lights and one of the bulbs fell out and the other came unplugged so it was hard to get them fixed in the pitch black but PRAISE GOD it all worked out and I PRAY God recieves the Glory and Honor!

I just want to praise God and give Him the glory for all He has done in my life in the past few months. Its hard to take a stand for God but it is so rewarding when you do! I have enjoyed growing personally and allowing God to use me and it hasnt been easy and there are days i dont think i can take another step, or i want to give in to the world but GOD NEVER LETS ME DOWN HE IS ALWAYS THERE FOR ME NO MATTER MY NEED! SO I JUST PRAISE GOD FOR WHERE I AM TODAY AND PRAY THAT NO MATTER WHAT THE WORLD HAS TO OFFER THAT I STAND FIRM ON THE WORD OF GOD AND I KEEP MY EYES ON HIM!

A VERY BUSY SATURDAY!!!

Today i will be a busy girl but im dont mind at all! At two oclock our children program at church is going bowling! I stink at bowling but im looking forward to doing this with the kiddos!! Ill take lots of pictures so ill post those lator! Then as soon as that is over im heading to the Church for Uth Movie night!

Im heading to town in a few minutes to buy food for tonight!!! I hope everyone has a great day today!!!

LOLA BETH

OK now i know why i dont have kids of my own! I have spent the last few days keeping kids from the ages of 10 months to 14 years old! In High School everyone said i would have 10 kids of my own by our 10 yr reunion. Well thats two years away and dont see that happening! LOL I love kids but i love the kind you spend time with and then send them home! LOLA was soo good for me and she slept a lot better than the last time i kept her overnight! I just dont sleep good when i keep kids overnight because i spend all night worrying about them! LOLA BETH and i had fun and i hope to keep her more! We spent time seeing friends and she had a blast playing with Rylee and everytime Jeff spoke she would just stare him down! Seeing Rylee with Lola just proved she is going to be a great big sister!! My mom put her to sleep for me and then we were in bed by 10 but she was up by 7! So it was a good time!! I took her to her mom and she didnt really want to leave me....awww she loves me! Wednesday night i kept Colby and Anna and they are always so good for me! I didnt get any pics from spending time with them cause after school we came to Monticello and went to my church and they both had a great time! After church we headed back to star city and got a snack, took baths, and headed to bed! The next morning was difficult cause no one wanted to get up even ME!!! lol

update on WW and WO

IM doing pretty good so far! My jeans are fitting a lot better so thats great for me! Im ready to buy a size smaller...so hopefully within 3 weeks ill be able to do so! Im thinking i may go be a sponsor on Senior Trip for a group and that will be a week in Florida is May so im going to take this to another level......I havent really cheated but i could do bettter on this! sooooo here i go 6 weeks of no extra points, lots of excersise, and lots of WATER!!!

babysitting

After school today i get the Capp Kids! I will be taking them to church with me and then we will be heading back to Star City! I will stay all night and then take them to school! I love Colby and Anna Grace and they are very good for me so i do not mind keeping them at all! Im going to try to take a few pictures of them today also! Not sure if we will have time though! After i drop them off tomorrow for school im heading to Pine Bluff to finish up some school business and then i will be meeting Anna to pick up my lil cousin LOLA BETH! I will be keeping her all day thursday and thursday night! Im not really sure what all we will be doing but i havent seen her since Christmas so im excited to see her! Im sure ill do a few pictures of her also! So i have a busy few days!!!

im refreshed...

wow its amazing what two days can do for someone! Yesterday was fun just spending some time with Josh (my lil brother)! We went out to eat, shopped, and then met up with my mom and cousin to eat again! I slept in today and do not have much to do at all! Just some more shopping and eating! I have ate healthy and been smart but will get much stricter when i get home! I cant wait to get home and do some hip hop abs! I also cant wait to get home and get to work on some things that God layed on my heart through PRAYER for our youth program! Im refreshed and ready to see God do great things.

God has sent me a few people willing to give their free time and serve God and reach out to our youth program...I started to ask God why are you sending them we really dont need them right now.....but then HE showed me why i need them! So im so ready to have a meeting with them and show them the things God has layed on my heart! So im pumped and excited!!!! God is so Good!!! we have a new uth blog so go check that out too!!

What is your calling in your church or your life? I believe everyone has one....I never thought i would be working with the youth! Its not always easy and im still learning daily but i have learned that if you give it all to God then He will show you the way! I encourage you to seek that!!

MELT ME MOLD ME AND USE ME

MELT ME, MOLD ME, AND USE ME....IF I GET GOING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION OR HAVE THINGS THAT NEED TO BE REMOVED OUT OF MY LIFE TAKE THEM AWAY EVEN THOUGH IT MAY HURT LORD

I have always loved the thought of being Clay and allowing God to shape us into what He would have us to be But sometimes we allow the world to shape us and allow worldly things to take over in our life! Shelley did an aweseom post on this too if you want to check it out! As you begin to take your personal relationship with Christ to the next level you will begin to see things that are in your life that shouldnt be there. Removing them may hurt just like taking a knife and removing a blemish from clay that has molded and set .....it takes some force and isnt always easy. God has melted me and that was a difficult process and now He is molding me but soon i will be molded but once im molded im not free from trials and tribulations! The world is still going to attempt me! Im not going to be so Holy im Perfect! The closer i get to God the more the DEVIL is going to attack me! YES I MAY FALL OR LET THE WORLD TEMPT ME BUT IF I DO.....GOD WILL BE THERE TO FORGIVE ME AND CHISEL AWAY THE WORLDLY THINGS THAT MAY HAVE GOTTEN IN MY LIFE!!!

YES NO MATTER WHAT YOUR SIN OR SINS MAY BE GOD IS STANDING THERE WITH OPEN ARMS READY TO FORGIVE YOU! HE LOVES US UNCONDITIONALY AND NO MATTER WHAT YOUR SITUATION IS HE IS THERE! YES GOOD PEOPLE HAVE BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO THEM AND THAT IS HARD TO UNDERSTAND BUT WE CANT PUT THE BLAME FOR OUR BAD THINGS IN OUR LIFE ON GOD!

Is your life falling apart today, are you living in sin today, do you feel like you cant take another step, if this is how you are feeling please just pray God surround me today i need you ! and even if you cant feel Him right then HE is there!!! keep seeking Him....as you continue to do that He will help you turn your life around!

MONDAY IS THE BIG DAY FOR ME....

FIRST WEEKS GOAL: TO STICK TO MY WORK OUT AND DIET AND DRINK NOTHING BUT WATER!!!

what a great day

I really enjoyed today! I was very busy but it was a refreshing day for me. I started off today with Sunday School. It was a great lesson and taught us to look at Nature, Scripture, and our Hearts! What in nature makes you think there is no way this happened but through God.......my answer is when your sitting at a lake and the sun is setting and the lake is smooth as ice and the trees shadows are on the lake...that is just amazing to me! or when the sky is just an amazing picture of colors that no one but God could paint! Those are both things that make me realize God is there! In Sunday School we were full and had a few visitors that really brought a lot to the table. Our class is very open and we discuss our hearts and are not afraid to be "honest" even if its admitting we failed!!! Then it was off to church where Bro Larry preached a pretty good message. I spent the afternoon preparing a slide show to present to the church with what our youth has been up to the past few months. I had dinner with a friend D tonight and she is such an awesome person and im glad we were able to have the conversation we did!

I have been very blessed with an awesome church, church family, great christian friends who love me for me and who support me! Working with the Youth is not where i htought I would be but its what God has for me and my life at this time so im taking it each day and looking forward to what may come next!

Where are you personally with God today......

Is God something you do on Sundays and when its convient for you?

Whats holding you back personally from recieving all of what He has for you and your life?

It is no longer what I want but what He wants for me and my life! Taking this stand is a personal choice for me and i encourage you to take a look at your life and see if your where you need to be today with God! Dont miss out on all the things God has in store for you because your putting your hope in the world and worldy things. Yes they are great for the moment, they are fun and fill the void for a moment but God is great always and with fill that void when the world no longer can! Yes even living a life for God will have trials and tribulations but when you dont think you can take another step God is there pulling you out of the valley and back on top of the mountain. He will always be there through the good and the bad! So take some time and look at your life...... Whats missing? If that answer is God I encourage you to make that change today!

THE GROUP!!!

I WILL HAVE TO SAY THAT WAS I REALLY ENJOYED BRINGING IN THE NEW YEAR WITH THE YOUTH GROUP! WE HAD A FINGER FOODS AND A FIREWORK SHOW WITH OUR CHURCH! THEY BROUGHT LOTS OF FINGER FOODS AND LEFT THEM FOR US TO SNACK ON ALL NIGHT! MY KIDDOS CAN EAT....WE HAD LOTS OF SNACK FOODS AND THEN MY DAD BROUGHT PIZZA AND THEY ATE ALL OF IT TOO! JEFF MEEKS ARRIVED AROUND 530 AND COOKED US A VERY YUMMY BREAKFAST INCLUDING EGGS, BACON, SAUSAGE, BISCUITS, AND PANCAKES! LAST NIGHT WE STARTED WITH A VIDEO SCAVENGER HUNT WHICH WAS GIRLS AGAINST GUYS! THE GIRLS WON...IT WAS SO MUCH FUN AND I THINK THE KIDS HAD A GREAT TIME! WE THEN CELEBRATED NEW YEAR AND AARONS 30 BDAY!!! AFTER THAT WE WATCHED OUR SCAVENGER HUNT VIDEOS AND THEN HAD A DEVOTION TIME. AFTER ALL OF THAT WE STARTED OUR WII TOURNAMENT AND THE KIDS ARE A LOT BETTER THAN I AM! I WILL HAVE TO SAY IT WAS AN AWESOME NIGHT AND ONE OF THE BEST NEW YEARS I HAVE EVER HAD! HAPPY 2009!!!
