I’m a Holy Ghost woman

You say you never heard of such a thing

It means I don’t care about that big ring

It means instead of getting down in the clubs

At night you will find me on my knees praying for you

And in the morning I’ll be singing my Saviors’ praises

And in the afternoon I’ll be sitting down reading the Word

Cause that’s the food that I need

I’m not gonna look at you if you got your shirt off and start yelling my way, it doesn’t matter what you say

I’m not here to sing songs about puppy dog love and lust for some man

I was always looking and searching for what I thought I needed

I thought I knew what I was doing

But then one day I let it all go, that’s what I’m here to show

Girls, I gotta tell you its not about the sex, money and body

Stop trying to live up to the world’s expectations

It’s about what your Lord and Savior wants

That void, only He can fill it

I’m writing to the girls in their rooms that wrap there arms around them and scream out for someone to help them

Late at night when the world seems so still but inside your mind your going crazy.

I don’t ever wanna see the devil take another girl like he tried to take me

Please you gotta listen up

I stand up only for one thing

And that’s my Lord and King

Cause He’s the only thing that filled me up

I listened to the lies

All lies straight from hell

My past is not my future

I now stand up strong, I’m a woman of God

He grants me with the patience, love, and grace that I need to live

He surrounds me with angels, and His love so that I may get the Word out that He is the only thing that will make you complete.

Hey!  Chapel is the youth ministry of The Valley Church and we love Jesus. I mean, He’s kind of like the biggest deal…EVER! From conception, Chapel has had the heart to reach this generation with the love and hope of our Savior. We have seen some pretty amazing things over the last year and half and God is moving in mighty ways throughout our city and region. We’re are STOKED to see what else God’s going to do!

The purpose of this blog is to continue reaching young people and point them to the hope found in Jesus. At Chapel, we have some pretty incredible students with much to say about their heart and burden for their friends and family. So, thats what this is!  A chance for young people to reach young people. An opportunity for our students to share their great gift of writing while communicating the power of the cross.

Get ready…you’re about to be impressed!!

Enjoy and see you on Wednesday at 7!
