Happy Thanksgiving!

I am so thankful to God for loving me when I don't deserve
it. I am so thankful for the cross and for grace in each day.
God has been so faithful in this past year and it is amazing
to see His nearness in the good and tough situations.

I am so thankful for my FAMILY!!! Laughing, talking, crying,
singing, making annoying noises, whispering at night, sharing
secrets and joys in life... I love you!

I am so thankful for my church! Every Sunday I get to see
Christ clearer through my brothers and sisters in Christ at
Sovereign Grace. It is so amazing to see Christ so at work
in a body.

I am so thankful for my friends! Love you all! You all
have been so wonderful in my life. Cannot wait to make
more memories with each of you.

I am so filled with joy and thankfulness and I am so
excited to see what God will continue to do.

Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. Psalm 100:4 Blessings on this day! ~Lily

A Grand Adventure

"A grand adventure is about to begin." ~Winnie the Pooh

Super excited about what God is doing
in my life and teaching me right now.
Right now, it is so cool to give Him 
everything and learn to wait and trust.
So blessed but excited for this
adventure!

Dying to bear fruit

Just listened to John Piper's biography on Adoniram Judson. I was so encouraged by it and blessed to see the sovereignty of God. Everything Adoniram went through was for God's glory and for Adoniram's good. Click here to listen to the sermon.

"The question, brothers, is not whether we will die, but whether we will die in a way that bears much fruit." 
~John Piper


When we die to ourselves, we die for a greater good and a greater joy.
God bless!

Defend, Maintain and Deliver

“Defend the cause of the weak and the fatherless; Maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed.  Deliver the weak and needy from the hand of the wicked.”  Ps 82:3-4

Have a blessed week!

In Charge

I wrote this poem several years ago for a writing class and am sharing it again. I hope you enjoy.


In Charge Poem
Lily Fluharty 9
October 12, 2009

If I were in charge of the world,
There would be no more hunger or pain,
People wouldn’t use others for gain,
There would be no divorce or affairs,
The world would be filled with prayers,
If I were in charge of the world.

If I were in charge of the world, 
Every child could learn,
Every father would earn,
Water will never be wasted,
Food will always be tasted,
If I were in charge of the world.

If I were in charge of the world,
The homeless would have a home,
The orphan would not be alone,
Brothels wouldn’t be here,
Every child held dear,
If I were in charge of the world.
If I were in charge of the world, 
No babies would die to abortion,
Life would not be in distortion.
There would be no murderers or thieves,
And no one would ever grieve,
If I were in charge of the world.

If I were in charge of the world,
Life would be like an adventure,
Into the world everyone venture.
Love would reign over all,
All would heed the Lord’s call,
If I were in charge of the world.

If I were in charge of the world,
I would never be in charge,
For the future is unknown and large.
God ordained the world to be
It will be perfect in eternity.
God is in charge of the world.


Have a great week! Thanks to everyone
who views my blog! It's super encouraging
to see! :) God bless...
