If Jesus Covers All Sins Then Why Can't I Do (insert sin here)? (Religious Sundays #2)

            So I feel like this is a question many non-Christians/new Christians might not understand! In the Bible it talks about how when you have faith in Jesus, and have him enter into your heart, that your sins are covered by his Passion (when he died on the cross and resurrected ). Yes, this is true, but this does not mean that you can just go and sin and not care that you sinned.
             This is for many reasons. The Bible talks about how you should try your hardest to be like Jesus, this is talked about a lot, especially when Jesus says "If anyone is to be my disciple, have him take up his cross and follow me". Jesus came to this earth to show us how we should strive to be.  The sins that he covered up by his death and resurrection are the sins that we ourselves are not aware that we have/are committing. The Bible talks a lot about how it is reaaaally sinful if someone is aware something is a sin, yet sins anyway because the whole point of a sin is that it is something bad, that makes us less in God's eyes, and something that we should not do. God wants us to be as sinless as we can be, and we can never be truly sin-free, but we can all strive to be better people is Jesus Christ.
            Jesus wants us to be like him, and he truly cares for us. Jesus does cover up our sins when we are faithful in him, but we still want to represent him as best as we can. If we believe in Jesus and sin A LOT, then people will think we are hypocrites, and this is completely misrepresenting Christ and all that he stands for! Jesus Christ died for our sins, and we should want to be as much like him as we can, and show him and God thanks for all they have done for us in our lives. Our salvation should be something that occurs, and makes us better people, and we can do this by following Christ. We should not be cocky, or think that we are better than others, we should love all people, evangelize, not commit sexual acts outside of marriage, and speak out against the things that God and Jesus say are abominable. You cannot be a Christian who just picks and chooses things in the Bible to believe, it must be ALL of God's word. If you want to talk to me for some Christian/Catholic fellowship please leave me a comment with your email and I will be happy to talk to you!

Happy Sunday! God bless you all!

Love,
Elizabth

Favorite Summer To Fall Transition Piece

So unfortunately it is officially Fall! Summer is over yet I am still transitioning clothing wise! So todays post will be about my favorite transition piece from Summer to Fall! The favorite thing of mine for the Summer to Fall season is the vans style shoe pictured above! I absolutely love vans style shoes just because they can be dressed up and down and they also come in many different colors and patterns! I may or may not own 4 pairs of vans style shoes! However my current favorite are these white lace patternes shoes! The detailing on this pair of shoes is absolutely amazing! They have such a nice look to them that is so much better than just plain white! Not to mention they are easy to clean! Trust me I cannot be trusted with anything white! These are perfect because theydo have a summery feel since they are lighter toned, however they also can be worn with leggings and pants to get more cozy! My absolute favorite part of these shoes though is probably the fact that you can litter...

Dual Action Moisturizer (Which is better? On Brand Or OffBrand? #2)(Blogmas 2016 #4)

      A post that I am very proud of, and that many of you wonderful readers really seemed to enjoy, was my Which Is Better? On Brand, or Off Brand Beauty Blender Edition . I decided to make it a little series because I realize that I love a good dupe, and I want you to join in my journey to great dupes! So welcome to another On-Brand or Off-Brand post!        I think every person can agree that moisturizer is something that is a necessity in a skincare routine, especially in this upcoming winter season! I know in the winter I get very dry skin, and I know that moisturizer can get quite expensive, so I thought I would try out a store brand moisturizer, and compare it to a Clean and Clear moisturizer that I already knew I loved.      These are the two moisturizers that I will be comparing in this post! The clean and clear advantage dual action moisturizer (I know this one is slightly different but I have used both!), and the Walmart...

What I Have Been Up To In The Past Few Months!

           Hello all! So I have been somewhat distant on this blog for the past few months! I have done a lot of religious posts that I absolutely love writing, but I realized that I have been a little distant when it came to talking about other stuff, and what I have been up to! So now I am just going to simply just talk a little bit about what I have been up to for the past few months!           So if you did not read my  2017 New Years Resolution Post  then you will not be aware that I am working hard at learning italian. I love learning new languages, and I have a goal of being trilingual by the time I am 25, and I want to do this with english, spanish, and italian. I take spanish at my school, so I am learning italian at home and I love it so much! It is really difficult to learn a language by yourself though when you do not have the cultural immersion, especially where I am in a primarily english speaking country, ...
