hi. my name is olivia.

People say that my generation is going downhill. But I believe my generation is just getting stronger. I mean look at the rate of divorce and suicide and abuse of kids. All these things that are going on in these kids life are making them stronger. The world in the last ten years have gotten so much worse than it ever has been. If you going into a high school and ask people what there home lives are like I guarantee more that half and messed up in some way and fashion. Kids that have to take that role as a parent to their younger siblings because their parents are gone all night. Kids that have to take care of their drunk parents. Kids that have to watch their parents do drugs. Kids that are abused daily. These kids are coming to school and waking up each morning with pain and suffering and people wonder why they are the way they are. These kids are being forced to grow up fast and toss all their childhood away. I know that I have a lot going in but if I look at some people I go to school with’s lives, I know I would not be able to handle it. They have to be stronger for themselves and for their family.
These kids should be the ones people are looking up to. Don’t look down on them and judge them because of their age. Because when it comes to age and courage, courage trumps age any day. These kids are my heroes. My generation is strong and I am proud to be a part of this. 1 Timothy 4:12

I don’t understand how some people can say they truly love someone and not do something about it. If you love someone you should fight for it with everything you’ve got. Don’t let anything ever stop you from loving someone. Not money, not popularity, not distance, not age, not anything. Love does overcome anything that steps into your life. Why would you walk away from that? I just don’t understand it. Love is so powerful. People overuse the term “i love you” but few understand the real meaning. When you love someone you need to be with them, beside them, supporting them, and holding their hand. Letting people go is one the the biggest mistakes that happens. It breaks my heart to see it. God put love in this earth not to be dismissed but to be applied in our every day. God has someone out there for all of us and one day that specific person will come into our lives. Sometimes it’s hard for me to wait, I just want to know who will be my knight in shinning armor. But he will come sooner or later.
Much love.

How can you look at the world and say there is no God? How can you see a sunrise or a sunset and say there is no God? How can someone battle cancer and have no chance of living and live say that there is no God? My God is amazing and powerful and loving. I don’t understand how people say stars collided and boom we are here. I just don’t get it. Has anyone ever been in a moving God-felt church service? You can feel God moving in miraculous way. You get all tingly inside. When there is a doctor and he has to go tell a little boys parents their is nothing else he can do, and the boy live to be 75 with no other problems. That is a miracle from God. Some people say, well how can you believe something that you can’t see? All I have to say is what god are you talking about? I see my God every single day. Just look around… He is always there.
MUCH LOVE 💙

We, as Christians, will never have an easy life. The bible says the this world is hell for a Christian. We are not put here for us. We are not put in this world for each other. We are put on this earth for Him. To glorify Him. To teach others His word. To show His love. And our purpose here isn’t for us. God gives us a talent or a something your good at to glorify Him, nobody else. So if we want to find our purpose we cannot say “what is my purpose for my life” instead we have to humble ourselves and say “God what can I do to glorify You for the rest on my life that You have given me”
I am reading a book called “The Purpose Drive Life” by Rick Warren its spilt up into 40 chapters. One chapter a day for 40 days. the first chapter was about it is all about God. I am SO excited to read the next chapter. It’s going to be amazing!

I know that there is something more to my life than being a nurse or a teacher or a writer. I just have that knowing feeling. I know that there is a calling out there that ties together with my passion and spiritual gifts. I haven’t found out any of those things yet but I am on the way to discovery. It’s coming soon, I know that. But I just want to get started on the thing that God want me to do for the rest of my life. I don’t know what my passion is but I do know I like to write. Is that a passion?
Definition:
1: the trait of being intensely emotional
2 : a strong feeling or emotion
(sorry that is a watered down and kinda stinky definition of passion. I had to text Cha Cha)
I just want to find that one thing I am so good at a use that talent for the Lord. Like I said before I don’t know my calling but right now I know to be patient and wait for God to speak to me. I might not get that answer now but only He knows. I could get it tomorrow of seven years from now of when I’m forty-five or eighty-three. But for right now i just need be the best servant of out Lord I can be. And when I do find it, don’t worry. I’ll make sure my blog is the first to know.
MUCH LOVE 💜

The best gifts in life are small but powerful. Tonight my sissy and “bffl”, as she called me, gave me a christmas preset with a card on it. The card said the most sweetest things ever. it was easily the best present ever. When I opened it I wanted to cry. I don’t know why I did. She is so thoughtful and bright. She’s always looking on the bright-side of things. I wish I was more like her. She’s a little ray of sunshine. And I am more than honored and blessed to be her “bffl.” I love you Rachel!
MUCH LOVE

2011. We have like 2 days left. It’s coming to an end. But this year I met the most amazing people. No, their not just people. Their my family. I am so blessed to have met them. I have two new best friends, an amazing little sister/bffl, a new role model, and I get to see my dad the happiest he’s ever been. That right there is more than enough to make my whole year worth wild. Thanks Jennifer, Dad, Stephanie, Hannah, Rachel, Jacob, and Mom.
At times this year I cried my eyes out, I laughed my butt off, and I got a little bit stronger. On days that I thought I couldn’t make it I did, days that I didn’t want to be alive God blessed me with more days, on days that I just wanted to stay in bed and cry God got me up and showed me the way, and on days that I saw things about myself that I hated God showed me my strengths that overpowered my weakness. This year, I got Stronger.
MUCH LOVE
