Behind the scenes of Mighty Mariah

Hey Everyone! Wow! I can't believe its September already, just reminds us that every moment is precious and we need to cherish life and live it to the fullest! 
So this blog update is going to be telling you just how "Mighty Mariah" got started and the meaning behind the nickname! 
So when I joined  the youth group at my church we played this game it was a little ice breaker game to get to know each other in the group. What we had to do is we had to go around the room and find an adjective that best describes us that starts with the first letter of our name. So my name starts with M for Mariah and I couldn't think of anything and then someone said "Mighty" and I said sure that works and then a couple of weeks later I wanted to start blogging. When I first started off with my blog it was "Short Stuff" I didn't really think that was a positive side to me and it was my nickname in the town I grew up in but I can see that Mighty Mariah fits me better and its got a nice ring to it! But as this blog started getting more and more views, I felt the calling to make this not about me and telling you in this blog what I do on a daily basis but instead use this blog to share the mightiness of our Savior Jesus Christ! I believe with all my heart He is mighty to save! When I look at how many views this blog has gotten it just overwhelms me because just knowing that I have shared the mightiness of Savior with thousands of people in the United States and many more people from different countries. When I look at the name Mighty Mariah I don't think of me! I think of how mighty our Savior is and how He had enough mightiness in Him to take the burden of the worlds sin and go to the cross to save us! Getting flogged,beaten and killed for all us sinners! Now that is a MIGHTY Savior! I was looking through the bible a couple weeks ago trying to find a verse to connect to the name of this blog and I ran across Zephaniah 3:17 it says "For the Lord your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior.
He will take delight in you with gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs" That verse kinda sums up the nickname that our Savior Jesus Christ is Mighty to save! It don't matter where you been or how far you have run! He is waiting with open arms to embrace you into His Kingdom that will give you EVERLASTING life! Jesus Christ is ABBA, He is the Alpha and Omega, He is the beginning and the end. But Our savior Is Mighty to save
I want to wrap up with this song called "Mighty to Save by Laura Story!
Enjoy!
Blessings to all
Mighty <3 Mariah
Zephaniah 3:17
