You Are More Than A Conqueror

We all go through hardships in our lives, we face trials we think we cannot get through, and we feel alone. We let this brainwash us into thinking we aren't capable of growing stronger, being happy, or even just "winning" the day. However, none of that is true.

Did you know that God thinks of you as more than a conqueror?

The dictionary definition of a conqueror is a person who conquerors or who gains a victory. In Romans 8:37 it says, "No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us."

If you are like me you probably already think of Jesus as being a conqueror. He conquered death! BUT GUESS WHAT! He thinks you are ALSO a conqueror. Being more than a conqueror is knowing that, through every trial in life, God is with you and, through him, you WILL overcome. You are NOT alone.

Steven Chapman sings in one of his hit songs, "We are more than conquerors, we are more than conquerors. God, if You are for us who can be against us? What can separate us from Your love?"

Yes, YOU are more than a conqueror. Nothing this world throws at you can separate you from God and his love. Start living your life like you are more than a conqueror because God already thinks you are.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
