Gods Not Dead 2

Hello all of you. Long time, no talk. I guess that is what happens when you waste your time with other websites other than your own blog.
Last night my awesome friends took me along with them to Gods Not Dead 2. First of all I suggest, please go see it! I didn't like the first one that much, but this one was great. Second of all, I suggest you go with a friend who is addicted to Starbucks. Because then you tell them you will only go there if they buy you something. Thank you again, Marcella, for the drink.
Anyways, the movie totally motivated me to live for Jesus and not to be ashamed of Him or afraid.
Stand with God God's Not Dead 2:
 
The world, non believers, can make fun of us. They can say mean things. They might even tell us not to talk about Jesus. Is that what the Bible tells us though?
 
galatians 1:10:
 
Who cares what they say or do. We all have rights. The world says things we don't like and we say they don't like. Us Christians need to live for God though no matter the circumstances. He died publicly, painfully, and shamefully for you so you better have something to give back to Him. And He tells us what He wants us to do. Live for Him. Not in private, but in public. Jesus died to give you life, don't you just want to share that life with others? Share that great news. Some countries you get killed because you believe in Jesus. The people that do get killed are amazing to me because they could have lied and said, 'No, I am not a Christian.' But no, they say yes they are. That also shows you the hate for Christians, but we shouldn't be the only ones without freedom. God made us free to choose what we believe and what we do. The world doesn't think that way though.
There is one for verse that I would like to share with you.
11 “Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 12 Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Matthew 5:11-12
Because you stand up for Him, He will reward you. That is just amazing. This little bit of good we do on earth is nothing compared to the whole lot of bad we do on it also. God still will reward you for living for Him.
Here is the song by Newboys they played in the movie that fits perfect with this.
 
 
 Okay, this is so true!:
 
Thought I would just throw this last picture in to close because, it is true! Makes me mad that people can talk about anyone except the one true King.
I hope I didn't get to pushy. Just make sure if you are a Christian, people know it. Because that in itself is a great impact.
God bless you all and go see Gods Not Dead 2 if it is still in a theatre near you,
Rebekah

Sweet 16

Hello to all of my dear followers and readers. How have you all been? I hope the weather at your places has been as nice as ours!
This is super late but hey, am I not know for late blog post or what!? Friday, the 25th of March, I turned 16.

You can't really see my cake, but it is an ice cream one with chocolate swirls on top.
Also you might see that browning deer head on a circle. Well that is a dart board from my brother Jacob. It is from the garbage dump, but it is in awesome condition!
 
Because I turned 16 my lovely parents let me wear make-up now. So my mom took me to Shopper's Drug Mart for a free make over. The lady did a great job and made it super fun for me. Afterwards, we went to Subway for lunch and then to DQ to get my cake.
 

 
 
On our way to Shopper's we had to drive past my friend's house because she said I had to. We didn't have to stop, but this drive past. So, we did.
Unless if you have great eye sight you probably won't see what it says. What is does say is, 'Happy 16th birthday Becky'.

 Then once we got home I got to finally open up my presents.
 
My parents got me 16 gifts which was pretty cool. I can't name all of what I got, but some of the things were a rodeo finale ticket for our stampede, an adult coloring book, American money for my Nashville trip, Harry Connick Jr.'s new CD, and other little things. My brother, Ben, got me the new Tim Neufeld CD which I thought I would never get because I could never find it. Jacob got me the dart board as you already know and also Chicago Mix popcorn. If you have never had that stuff, I recommend you go to the store right now, find it, buy it, and then eat the whole bag in two seconds. It really is that good. My friends that put up the sign for me got me a gift that was really creative. It was a picnic basket with a cute shirt, a blanket, a coloring book with pencil crayons, and food, of course, in it. What they wanted me to do with it is to go on a date, but the thing is that I am not going on a date anytime time soon. It was still a pretty cool gift. The last gift I got that I think is the coolest gift EVER is from my friend in Ontario. I seriously never in my life thought I would ever get Hunter Hayes as a gift. Well, I did!
This is blurry so you don't get the whole effect! Anyways, she drew this though and it is amazing! Right when I saw it I said, "This is the picture is from the Grammys." And I was right.
 
I will seriously treasure the picture the rest of my life. I still need to find a frame for it though.
It was a great birthday! I was spoiled like crazy.
I hope you all have a wonderful day and thank you for reading.
God bless,
Rebekah
