Hello gals!
A reader of this blog, has asked the LOV writers to share about a site that she and her friend have started, by the Lord's prompting. The link is:

Another site that started the same time as LOV:
About SOTCL:
Open hearts, devotion and loyalty, laughter, refreshment in His Word, late-night prayers, nature walks, shared memories...There is so much joy through fellowship and friendship with those who abide in Christ. To live our lives as one in Jesus Christ is one of life's richest blessings....bound together through the unity and desire to live for His smile alone.
What started with two girls coming together to praise their King and to lift up His holy name soon grew to become a Bible Study with more kindred hearts.
His hand is in everything and it's such a privilege to see Him at work in and through our lives. God continues to show us more and more as we come together in Him to read His Word and to praise His name. He continues to refine and mold us more into His image, and it has been and continues to be one of the most exciting and breathtaking adventures!

RUBIES LIKE RUTH!
About Rubies Like Ruth: "Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies." (Proverbs 31:10, KJV) Today, there is a sad lack of young women who strive to become virtuous. God sees a virtuous woman as being of much greater value than rubies, yet few young women attempt to walk the path of purity that will help them to press towards this goal. Their desire is that “Rubies Like Ruth” will become a valuable resource to help young ladies as they allow God to shape them into precious rubies that will bring glory and honor to His name. Now head on over to http://www.rubieslikeruth.blogspot.com/

YOUR Rebelution
WARNING: This post is large.
Be sure to watch at least part of this video! It's worth it!
We’ve all heard people say that God wants us “on fire” for Him. Maybe your youth pastor has talked about being “sold out” for Jesus or a conference speaker has challenged you to serve God with “total abandon.”
We’re used to that kind of talk. It’s almost cliché.
But has anyone ever told you that God commands you to do hard things? For some reason that sounds more extreme. Being “on fire” or “sold out” for God sound like positive emotional states where nothing can really get to us. Even serving God with “total abandon” doesn’t make us feel uncomfortable as long as we leave it general and vague. But “do hard things” sounds so — well, hard.
We don’t like hard things in our society, especially as teens under the influence of the Myth of Adolescence. We avoid hard things as much as possible. Unfortunately (or should we say, fortunately), there’s no avoiding them in the Bible.
Hard Things in the Bible
All of God’s commands in Scripture are hard. Of course, our tendency is to just say that God’s commands aren’t “easy” or that it’s only by His grace that we can obey any of them — and both of those statements are 100 percent true — but why can’t we ever come out and say that God’s commands are hard? When Christ commands us to love our enemies, why can’t we just call it what it is?
Everything God commands is hard. Repenting is hard. Forgiving is hard. Turning the other cheek is hard. Overcoming sin in our lives is hard. Honoring our parents is hard. Sharing the gospel is hard. Reading our Bibles is hard. We could go on.
Part of our hesitation to call things hard can be that we’re afraid to come across as unspiritual. After all, if we’re truly “on fire” for Jesus, shouldn’t it be easy for us to read our Bibles every day, say no to sin, and share the gospel with others?
But when we think that way we’re missing something huge that God wants to teach us about personal growth — and that’s what we want to talk about in this post.... READ FULL ARTICLE HERE
The Rebelution isn't ALL about doing big things,but,rather,HARD things
Just because you can't do something big like go to Africa on a missions trip or start a big fundraiser doesn't mean you aren't included! No,just the opposite. Doing things like keeping the house neat or your priotities straight are big things to God,because they are important things. In fact,if you can't keep after the little things,don't expect God to give you something even bigger to do! Go for it! Spend your life serving God,not yourself,and do whatever it takes to do it.
