Go Tell It On The Mountain

The shepherds were living in the fields and keeping watch over their flock. In the night, the angel of the Lord appeared to them surrounded in the glory of the Lord. The shepherds were terrified, but the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I have good news that will bring joy to all. A Savior has been born to you today in the city of David. He is the Messiah! He is our Lord! You will find Him as a baby wrapped in cloth and lying in a manger.” (Luke 2:8-12 ParaphraseContinue reading

Keep Making Me [video]

My mum is always requesting songs, but I hardly get around to doing less than half of them. I’ve spent some time filming, so here is Keep Making Me by the Sidewalk Prophets!

CS Lewis once said “To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”

It’s so true! We complain about heartache, but pain is better than a hard heart. We are clay in the hands of our Father, and sometimes that clay needs to be smashed in order to be rebuilt. I do not want to be lonely, empty, or broken, but if it is necessary for the will of God and my walk with Him, so be it. The Lord makes beautiful things out of us, and He is still making me.

My First Post

Hi! My name is Trevor, and this is my very first post on wordpress. I have ran many blogs over the years, but this will be a new adventure for me.

A few notes to get you started: senior

  • I am currently 18 years old.
  • I have just graduated high school.
  • I am a member and leader within Vision 2 Hear.
  • I do sign language to Christian music. You can see some here.
  •  I enjoy music, photography, and a few other simple pleasures.

So, why Watchmysign?

Watchmysign was first created to serve as a username for me on social networks. It was based off of my history with sign language, but has slowly evolved into so much more. It always leaves me wondering, what sign am I leaving for other people to watch? What mark am I leaving on this earth? More importantly, can people see me following Jesus by the way I live my day? As Christians, people will always read us, and we need to be giving them something worth reading! We may not be called to have extreme lives and become adrenaline junkies, but we are definitely called to lead a life worthy of Jesus Christ. Watchmysign serves as a reminder to me that I will always be watched, and I need to be careful with what my sign says.

What does your “sign” say about you?
