Hey guys! This is my very first blog post on "Fervent Love." I'd just like to say thank you all sooo much for all your prayers and support. It's truly a blessing to have the opportunity to do this. I just wanted to give you my vision on what I want this blog to become. First of all, this blog is a complete act of faith. I don't know how it's going to turn out but, I feel called to do it so...I guess I'm doing it! :) Secondly, this blog is for the purpose of influencing girls. Teenage girls in specific but, it's for any age really. I'm going to be hitting topics that teenage girls need encouragement and advice on. My goal is to uplift and inspire, all while honoring Christ. As the next generation, we're called to spread the word of God, and to love people. That's my purpose here and it also leads to my title "Fervent Love." Hearts have always sort of been my symbol. Christ is love. His love is all you need. It's more love than any human being could ever give. It's more love than you could feel in ANY type of relationship. It's just so impact to think of that, but even more so, to think we are supposed to love likie Christ. So, after I felt called to write this blog, naturally, I wanted to start right away. But I didn't have a title. I laid awake trying to figure one out when finally, I realized it. If God was calling me to write this, maybe the title of it lies within the Bible, His own word. So, I pulled it out and turned to 1 Peter, which is the book I'm currently memorizing for "The Challenge." I read up to the section in chapter 4 titled "Keep your love Fervent." Verse 8 through 11 was what hit me hard.
"Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins. 9 Be hospitable to one another without complaint. 10 As each one has received aspecial gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. 11 Whoever speaks, is to do so as one who is speaking the utterances of God; whoever serves is to do so as one who is serving by the strength which God supplies; so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belongs the glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen." Fervent Love. THAT was my title. So, I used it! That's the whole story behind the title! Anyway, we're going to be talking about insecurity and growing closer to God, staying modest, making God your number one priority and so much more. I'm super excited. Thank you guys again for all the support. Love You! ~KJ
