I live. I am human. I am a teenager. I am a guy. I live for something greater. I struggle with the basics. I groan at the usual. But I keep living to do what has been asked of me.
You can call me Speedy.
I'm here to reach out to the ones I love and care for. Once in a while I'll get sentimental, or deep, and probably blog something like it.
My life has simple aims, and a difficult path to them. I deal with it the best I can.
I am Speedy. I am Christian, but do not fear me, for I will love you regardless. I guess this is the chance for anyone who cares, to see the depths of my mind, and everything it holds, dark or bright. Happy or sad.
Read my thoughts or leave them, they are yours to criticize.

Not one thing will stand between me and my God

I refuse it.

I have lied to him, cheated him, forsaken him, forgotten him, and fallen so far of where he held me.

No longer. I am done bringing shame.

God is my rock and his word is my sword and my faith is my shield.

I will defend him, no matter the cost, and when I feel broken, I will run to him and nothing else.

No person, no image, and no desire will overcome it. Not anymore.

NOT ANYMORE! I’m tired of fighting for myself. I’m tired of fighting myself.

I’ve always known what I’ve had to do and no longer am I going to neglect that.

This is my statement. This is my pledge. I’ve broken one too many, and should I feel the temptation to break it I pray God throw me to the ground to have me remember.

I am a soldier of his. I will fight like it.

I’ll come home with the knowledge that he can smile upon me for defending the faith and being there for my fellow soldiers through and through.

To anybody who knew me, knows me, or will come to know me:

This is my pledge. Hold me to it.

I’m getting sick of people getting harassed with this stuff.
So here… hate me:


HOMOSEXUALITY IS WRONG.  IT IS A SIN.  That is clearly stated.  You cannot say that it’s not.  Do you hate me yet?  You shouldn’t.  Oh but you will.  Why?  Oh because I have the two cents to speak the truth.  You don’t like the truth do you?  Hmmm…
here’s a thought… get over it.  It is a truth whether you appreciate it or not.  If you tell yourself that homosexuality (or bisexuality) or any other form of sexual relations/preference BESIDES heterosexuality is okay, then you are lying to yourself. 
Probably a tough fact to swallow.  But it is true. 
Did I say I hate gays? or bi’s? 
No I don’t believe I did, and I don’t.  Did I say that they were screwed over or condemned to hell?  Nope.  Didn’t say that either… they might be, but they don’t have to be… if they are willing to change.  These aren’t my words.  These are Christs.  Call me a fool, insult me, yell at me, scream at me, spam me with crap, and blah blah blah.  Do it all because guess what:  My level of caring right now is so dang low the meter for it broke.  I’m speaking the truth.  That is all it is.  It cannot be rightfully denied.  Have fun with that fact.

Speedy shutting up.

MikesChair — Someone Worth Dying For

I heard this song in the car today.  It’s absolutely beautiful… and the video was about to make me tear up.  No joke.
It made me think of my girlfriend.  She’s not Christian… not yet at least.  I mean… she’s borderline.  After meeting me, she says she’s not sure.  I just keep praying and praying for her.  I can’t make anything happen with her and Christ.  That’s his job, but deep inside I just keep hoping and I keep praying.  The song is so beautiful and it reminded me of her.  She’s beautiful, and she’s so much more than what this world tells her she is.  There’s so much more, and I just hope she’ll see that someday…  that’s what made me tear up.

Christian Underground: Wavering Faith

christianunderground:

The number one problem I hear from Christian’s is “Why do I feel so distant from God?” “Why is my life suddenly collapsing on itself” or something along those lines. I’d like to tell you that it’s just coincidence, but we all know that the reason your life is fading away is because your no longer…

"I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms. Now he is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come."
