Rare Item Monday!

Hey, Jammer's! CoolCat here with another post! How is everyone doing? Hopefully everyone had a great week last week! Did any of you do anything fun? Will any of you be doing something fun this week? This week I will be making one of my favorite meals, fajitas! I know this conversation is pretty random, but what is your favorite meal? I am very curious!

But now lets start off with todays Rare Item Monday!

Todays Rare Item Monday for Animal Jam is the Rare Rainbow Wrist Guards!

Thoughts: This is an item I don't believe I have seen in the game before, so its very original! I feel like the colors could be a bit more exciting, but overall I like it for its creativeness!

Overall I rate this weeks Rare Item Monday a 8.5!

What do you think of this weeks Rare Item Monday? Comment down below!

Here is todays verse.

[Jesus said] "You are the light of the world. Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your father in heaven." -Matthew 5:14-16

As always, bye Jammer's! And ~Jam On!~

God Only Knows - Suicide Prevention

Hello everyone!

Today's post is something I wouldn't typically post about since there's some younger viewers on this blog, but I really believe this needs to be addressed.

Thursday at 12 AM (EST), for KING & COUNTRY, a Christian band, released a new music video, that has to do with suicide prevention (as I said previously, this isn't something I'd typically post about), and how precious your life really is, and how there's a God who loves and cares for you so much more than you could ever imagine. So many people have been committing suicide lately, it's insane. Even public figures have been. The suicide rate has increased so much.

Back in the Old Testament, it seems like God is a God of wrath and anger, but really, the only reason why he has wrath and anger, is because he doesn't like seeing his children drifting away from His love and care, into following idols and false gods. He wants the best for us, which is trusting Him with everything, and following Him alone.

Your life is precious, and so worth living. God knows how much your being hurt by people in this world. He knows how much you're being bullied, abused, or whatever you may be going through. But that's not the end. There's so much God has in store for you, and if you just fully commit your life to Him and live for Him, he'll reveal that to you.

This is not the end. God has more for you. Just keep on living. He'll help you through this pain you're facing right now if you let Him. Ephesians 2:10 says,

-

For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

-

We are God's masterpiece. We were fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). He sees us as beautiful. Not as trash. He sees us as worthy. Not worthless. He sees us as someone who's life is worth living. Not someone who should just take their own life.

God's words are more powerful, and way more true than any lie any human here on earth could ever tell us.

You are priceless. Beautiful. Unique. Your life is worth living.

Like it said at the end of the video, if you need help, and are contemplating suicide, call the number below.

You are priceless.

Then there was a little Christian concert thingy in a somewhat nearby park, that was super fun to :O
And then on the way home, WE HEARD "You're not Alone" By Owl City on 91.5 which is a Christian radio station. They do some Owl City every once and awhile and it makes me
soooo happy XD
Today my second oldest brother also came home after helping out at a camp out of state for 3 months! :O
(At the moment he is having quality time with his other bro's on Fortnite XD)
Oh yeah and I think I got rid of my writer's block. XD
So, so far I'm just having a great day!

1 Peter 1:8-9

Though you have not seen him, you love him; And even though you do not see him now, you believe in him, and are filled with a inexplicable and glorious joy. For you are receiving the end result of your faith, and the salvation of your souls.

I really love this verse ^.^

Jammer Request — Graciepopstar91!

This is the right Darren... right?

I know how much you love We Are Messengers, so I started there with Google to confirm a hunch. When I saw his name was Darren, I was reasonably sure you meant this guy. 😄



Since I think you once told me that Gracie wasn’t your real name, I’m gonna go ahead and say that you (and only you!) can edit this image to make it say your real name, if you wanted to use it anywhere other than Animal Jam-related sites. 😊

Romans 8:38-39 ” 38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”



PEACE!
LOVE!

Vacation Part 3- Merchandise And Autographs!

Hellooooo everybody! Originally I had pre-scheduled this big long post for Thursday, because I was pretty bored. CoolCat asked me if I could cover her post today though, so I decided that instead of doing a RIM post, I decided that I'd just post what I had already written today!

As I said, I've been pretty bored today. Housemom418 and Housemom322 are at camp right now, and they're pretty much the only ones I frequently see on Animal Jam, so I've been wandering around on Animal Jam doing random things... Looked at Cami's den... I actually saw one of Custard's masterpieces there, and also one I sent her. That was cool... I slept in until like 9:30 AM today... Ate breakfast (egg-toast-ham mashup thing)... Ate lunch (hot dogs and leftover homemade potato salad from the night before)... Read my Bible... Tended to my camp wounds... (Sunburns, chapped lips, blister on my foot)
And that's basically it
I'm just so bored
XDD
SO HERE I AM POSTING ABOUT MY VACATION THAT WAS A MONTH AGO

First of all, I'd like to apologize for not doing Animal Jam posts in like,
Forever
Probably two months or more. XD I'm just getting kinda tired with AJ. There's new stuff all the time, but not really blog-worthy stuff I guess? Since this blog is both an Animal Jam and a Christian blog, I guess I've just been sticking to more of the Christian posts, and Christian music posts. Everyone else does Animal Jam posts, so it all balances each other out I suppose. XD I just find it much easier to write Christian posts than Animal Jam posts.

Without further ado, let's get started with today's post! Today I'm going to be sharing a few more concert pictures (for KING & COUNTRY picture is included to get your attention, mewhahaha), and the merchandise I got at the concert!

---

Another picture of Jon just for good measure.

Will You hear my call? Will you be there when I fall? (Lyrics continued on my Hawk Nelson t-shirt. :))

A never before seen for KING & COUNTRY picture everybodyyy

This was the Tenth Avenue North, Mallary Hope, and Hannah Kerr meet and greet me and my dad did! From left to right is, Jason Jamison, Ruben Juarez, Jeff Owen (Cyborg, or half-and-half because he is, as Mike says, "Half human, half robot, half Irish, half Asian. That's a whole lot of halves, but if you do the math, you'll see it adds up. We call him half-and-half for short."), Brendon Shirley, Mike Donehey (Dimitri from How To Train Birds. Hehehehehe), Mallary Hope, and Hannah Kerr.

During that meet and greet, my mom surprised me and got me a Hawk Nelson poster! Obviously this is already up in my room. XDD

You say all of this time and I've never let you down, I carried you then I'll carry you here and now. So don't loose heart and don't forget, My work in you ain't finished yet. So hold onto me now I'll never let you down... I'll never let you down.

I got my first Hawk Nelson shirt at the concert, eeeeeeeeeee

I wanna be different I wanna be changed, till all of me is gone, and all that remains, is a fire so bright, the whole world will see that there's something different, so come and be different in me.

Also my first Micah Tyler shirt! Basically since the first time I saw him in concert I've wanted his merch. XDD

No, this t-shirt doesn't say "Ca se crio chna iche". XDD It's Gaelic (Irish) for "It Is Finished"! This is for sure not my first We Are Messengers t-shirt... I feel like my whole closet is mainly made up of We Are Messengers shirts. Sooooo not obsessed with them. TOTALLY NOT

My VIP lanyards! I'm not even joking, as soon as I woke up on Saturday morning, I looked over at my Tenth Avenue North lanyard from Friday to make sure I wasn't having some outrageous dream where I met Jon from Hawk Nelson, Tenth Avenue North, Mallary Hope, and Hannah Kerr. XDDD I've seriously have had so many dreams of meeting my favorite artists that I juuuust had to double check. I've also had several several dreams that I've gone to Louie Giglio's church, Passion City Church. It always seems to look the same... Extremely large, with a really weird looking kids area. XDD

CD's! I got the physical copy of the We Are Messengers CD Saturday at Lifeway Christian Bookstores, and Micah Tyler gave us his CD.

Micah Tyler even autographed it for us, which was super nice! He gave that to us because my dad wanted to get in contact with his management for an interview, so he wrote his management's email on the lyric side of the album. I flipped it around though, because I'm not sure if his management's email is out to the public or not. I no like leaking stuffs. XDD

I bought a Tenth Avenue North hat! Everybody's merchandise is so expensive, so I literally had to save up money for a few months to get enough, and I was still like $10 short on money. XDD

My Lifeway bag, and a devotional by Louie Giglio my mom bought for me!

Random GCU freebies. The concert was held at Grand Canyon University arena, so we stayed at Grand Canyon University hotel since they're only about a 5 minute drive away from each other! They had GCU magazines I believe outside the arena, and we got the lanyard and pen from their table at the concert. The GCU water bottle was from the hotel. They give you those when you first check in, and whenever you request it at the front desk! They had really good service at the hotel. Next to the water bottle is a GCU lip balm! I really could of used that the first night, because my lips got really chapped from singing for some reason. o.O

Free Elevate booklets, and some cards telling you to put your images up on social media using the hashtag, "#ELEVATEAZ". Next time I'm on my mom's Instagram I wanna see if anyone actually did that... XDD They were saying it almost every night at the concert, so they probably did.

Funny story why I got these... Sunday night me and my mom swore we saw the back of Branan Murphy at the concert. He was playing at the concert Saturday night, so we thought he might of stayed the next day or something. My parents also swore they saw him at the hotel on Saturday, so we literally sat outside when we got back Sunday night waiting to see him. He uh- never came. But while we were waiting I got these inside the computer room. XDD

Air1 freebies! The top item is a bumper sticker for your car, and below that is an Air1 fan for your phone! Next to that is a card telling you how to win a custom Air1 skateboard. We didn't win, but when we were standing at the Air1 table, we saw the kid who won it! The skateboard looked super cool.

Family Life Radio freebies! The top item is a cup my mom got while she was waiting for me and my dad at the Tenth Avenue North meet and greet, and below that is a Family Life Radio bag. I used it to carry my merch around. XD Then below that is a pop socket! I was wanting a pop socket, so I was really happy when I got this. I put it on my iPhone (my iPhone 4 that barely works..), and I love it!

There was a table at the concert for an Arizona foster organization, called "Arms of Love". We got a lip balm and a highlighter from their table. I never took a picture of the highlighter though..

We got a note in our hotel room from the housekeeper! Me being who I am, wrote a note back (XDD) and wrote Bible verses all over it. 

Last but not least, a Jordan Feliz bracelet my mom got me, that says "Can I Get A Witness?" on it! It's from his song "Witness".

Now onto the autographs!... If the email of them will ever come through... And if my mail will ever open... Darn now I've gotta turn my computer off and back on... (#FourYearOldComputerProblems)

After having had to reorganize my desktop because it got messed up when I shut down my computer, and having to get all my tabs back, I'm back, and now here are the autographs. XDD

Jon from Hawk Nelson's autograph! My dad was kinda joking when I asked for an autograph, and was like, "Do you have some special verse you put on autographs?" and he was like, "Not really". But I got one anyways, so, YAY. XDD I loved looking up the verses artists put on their autograph. :D

Autographs from Tenth Avenue North, Mallary Hope, and Hannah Kerr. I can really only make out Mike's, Mallary's, and Hannah's. XD

Branan Murphy!

Micah Tyler's amazing smiley face autograph! XD

Jonny Diaz, Darren, and Chris from Stars Go Dim's autographs!

David Dunn's autograph!

Mia Koehne's autograph! I thought that was sweet that she took time to write me a little message.

Justin Unger's autograph!

I'm still super mad I didn't get Joel's autograph... Hopefully they'll be at Elevate next year and I'll get his autograph then? XDD

I hope you enjoyed today's post! What was your favorite part? Be sure to comment down below!

Next in this vacation post series, I'm going to try to figure out how to get the videos on here. I was having a lot of trouble trying to send the videos to myself, but hopefully I'll figure out a solution and get them to you guys soon.

Here's todays Bible verse!

Colossians 3:1

Since you have been raised to new life with Christ, set your sights on the realities of heaven, where Christ sits in the place of honor at God's right hand.

When we accept Christ into our lives, we need to fully fix our eyes on God, and not our old ways of life.

God made you. Uniquely. Beautifully. Intentionally. Purposefully. Wonderfully.

P.S. Just a heads up, I miiiight not be posting on Thursday, because we're having my niece from Wednesday night until Thursday morning/afternoon-ish. If I post it'll probably just be short. XD For sure not as long as this post. o.o

The Insanely Difficult Christian Music Tag!

Hewo guys!
So....
I planned on posting.....
But tomorrow we're going camping, and I, my mom, my mom's friend, and her daughter all went shopping for food for everyone at camp. I was so worn out from that, and when we got back had to uh...
Prepare games for camp
That I'm going to be "hosting" at camp

I'm very scared. XDD The person that explains the game and hosts it and everything is the center of attention during that gaaaame
And I hate being the center of attentionnnnn
And plus, I feel like I'm too young to be doing this. Normally an adult does the games?
Sooooo this will be interestinggggg

One of the games I actually came up with. I wrote down lyrics to 27 different Christian songs, and someone has to guess the title of it. Whoever gets it wrong has to take a jelly bean from the bean boozled game (if you dunno what that is, you can read about it here. It's basically just the jelly bean you get is either good or bad XDD), and whoever get's it right has to choose someone to eat the jelly bean. Buuuut if you can guess correctly both the artist and title, then you get to choose two people to eat the jelly bean, and if you get both of those wrong, then you have to eat two.
Ooooooo
I'm nervous about this tho
Mk anyways moving on

As I was saying...
I planned on posting, but I'm just so extremely tired, so today's post is gonna be a "rerun" of what I posted Tuesday on Animal Jam Community. So, without further ado, here is the tag I call, "The Insanely Difficult Christian Music Tag"!

---

1. Top 10 favorite Christian bands/artists? (In order of how you like them)

We Are Messengers

Hawk Nelson

Micah Tyler

Passion

MercyMe

for KING & COUNTRY

Tenth Avenue North

Jordan Feliz

Dan Bremnes

Crowder

I could tell you more but... :) XDD

2. Exactly how many Christian concerts have you been to, and who was there?

That is why this is called "The Insanely Difficult Christian Music Tag". XDD

Ah, let's see... We gotta take this back since I was like 3. XDD

All in all, I've been to about... 6 or 7 concerts? When I was super little, I saw MercyMe and someone else in concert.. But I don't remember it like at all. I had to of been like 3 or 4 years old. XD 

Then I went to the Rock and Worship Christian Roadshow when I was a bit older. I believe Francesca Battestelli was there, and Family Force Five. There were other people, but I can't remember who. I think for KING & COUNTRY might of been there?

I went to Winter Jam, and that I don't remember too well.. Better than I do the roadshow though. I know Plumb was there, maybe Love & The Outcome, possibly Tenth Avenue North, and a bunch of other people... Those are the ones I slightly remember though. XD

I saw Big Daddy Weave, We Are Messengers, and Micah Tyler, on the Set Free Tour. I can't really remember a concert between that and Winter Jam... I'm sure my parents will tell me if I missed something once they read this. XD

Then the most recent concert I went to, was actually three concerts! It was Elevate 2018, held at Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, Arizona. The first concert was on June 22nd, and the lineup for that night was Tenth Avenue North, Hawk Nelson, Plumb, Hannah Kerr, and Mallary Hope. On June 23rd, the lineup was... Oh dear, there were so many people I might have to pull up the lineup. XDD Phil Wickham, *pulls up lineup* Building 429, Jordan Feliz, Ryan Stevenson, Micah Tyler, Branan Murphy, Mia Koehne, and Justin Unger. I actually didn't really get to see Ryan Stevenson though, because everyone before him were at their merch tables, so we were meeting all of them. Then on June 24th, the lineup was for KING & COUNTRY, We Are Messengers, Jonny Diaz, Stars Go Dim, David Dunn, and For All Seasons! That was seriously the best concert I had ever been to, and I think my parents would agree.

3. Exactly how many Christian artists have you met? And who was it?

Uhhh... About 14? Jon from Hawk Nelson, I met everyone in Tenth Avenue North, Hannah Kerr, Mallary Hope, Micah Tyler, Branan Murphy, Mia Koehne, Justin Unger, Joel from for KING & COUNTRY, Darren from We Are Messengers, Jonny Diaz, Chris from Stars Go Dim, and David Dunn. I met them all in the matter of three days. (: XDD I met them all at Elevate this year.

4. What Christian artist would you like to see in concert next? (Or who would you like to see in concert again)

I really really really wanna see Dan Bremnes in concert. His music is so good! I'd like to see MercyMe in concert, because I don't remember seeing them in concert at all. And obviously, I'd love to see We Are Messengers in concert for the third time...

You guys: O.O Isn't two times enough???

Neverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. I shall keep on seeing them in concert until they break up.

Hopefully

At least

That's my goal.

XDD

5. What Christian artist would you like to meet?

Again, Dan Bremnes. He's kewl. XDD He went around the world in 8 days to 7 different countries with Jon. So that's pretty awesome.. Crowder would be pretty awesome to meet. But my only requirement is that he brings Kenny Rodgers.

Who's Kenny Rodgers?

WELL I'LL SHOW YOU

It's a taxidermy (stuffed) arctic fox. It goes with David Crowder to every concert.

On Crowder's website, there's even Kenny Rodgers accessories...

A t-shirt...

A bandana...

A patch...

A stuffed animal...

A drink koozie...

And an air freshener.

:D

---

I tag...

Anyone who wants to do this tag! Even if you haven't been to a Christian concert, you can still answer the other questions! Or you can see if your friends want to answer this tag!

Psalm 25:5

Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you.

God made you. Uniquely. Beautifully. Intentionally. Purposefully. Wonderfully.

P.S. I'll try to post some more concert stuff up on Sunday! Which would you like to see first, autographs, or merchandise I bought? Please let me know in the comments!
