{LOVE}

And you must love the LORD your GOD with all your heart,all your soul, and all your strength.                                   DEUTERONOMY 6:5->>

Hello again it's me, your good friend, Bean. I'm going to write a short a devotional before jumping into my first topic and tutorial. Over the next 12 days I'm going to take you through the fruits of the spirit.The first one is none other than love. When people think of love they think of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, Taylor Swift and her horrible love life, or a winged baby flying in the air...








No, not that kind of love. I mean the love that God has for us and the love we should have for Him. In our life it can be so easy to lose focus of true love and get lost in something like Snow White and true love's kiss. Friends, if you are searching for true love, search no further. Once you have a relationship with God, it will last forever. He will never "break up" with you because his love endures forever. STOP trying so hard to find love in the wrong places but find love in God because that is a relationship that will never fail.



But God shows His love for us in that while we were {still sinners Christ died for us}
ROMANS 5:8


Don't get me wrong it's perfectly okay to really like and enjoy things in this world, as long as your first love is God and your relationship with Him. On this blog, I'm going to talk about both my love of God and the things I really like and enjoy in His creation.

One of my absolute favorite things to do is read my bible and highlight, take notes, and scribble down all my thoughts on what I have been reading. Currently, in my bible I am reading the book of John and it is so good and inspiring. I am also reading another really inspiring book: Live Original by Sadie Robertson. Finally, during our family bible study, we are studying the book of James. I would love to hear what you're reading and how it is inspiring you!


Now, I want to talk about one of those things I really like: the Arizona Cardinals football team! In this post I will be showing a couple of different ways to cute up a Cardinals jersey. Every time the Cardinals play my whole family and my mom's friend wear our jerseys (We got to represent!) But, it's hard to cute up a bright red jersey every week! Believe me I would know. But, I'm here to help. You can do this with any jersey really - I just happen to love the winning team! 

My first outfit is of course my Cardinals jersey, a black skater skirt from Styles For Less, and brown beaded sandles from Target.


 The second outfit is a bit more casual: the Cardinals jersey, denim shorts from Target, and brown flip flops from Tilly's.

The third outfit is sporty spice for sure: The Cardinal's jersey, black yoga pants, champion running shoes from Payless, and sunglasses from my church.



 The last outfit is a pair of Papaya jeans and my favorite pair of black high-tops.


 

 My next post will be about finding happiness and beauty in the outside world, not the technology and stressful world. Simply being outside in nature.  Believe me, I know it can be hard to stop and appreciate nature but also believe me when I say it's worth it!

P.S my amazing mother has started a new blog in order to encourage me and my sister to be consistent in writing our own blogs it is called: Quite simply so lovely. I strongly encourage you to read it.  Comment below on some of the things that make you happy, mine are God, supporting the Cardinals and pasta! I can't wait to hear some of yours. 

Love from, Bean
