AKA "HOME"!
I came to help my gramma with stuff because she had recently got surgery done on her shoulder and can't really do much. I left with a a stronger desire for God!
It happens everytime I come here, God is so evident, and I always get a renewing, encouragement, and support.
The bible says to surround yourself with a cloud of witnesses, here I have my Grandparents, Great Grandma, Pastor, Youth Pastors and ppl in between! When I go back I have A couple elders in the church, and the "Unofficial Youth Pastors"! Thats it, and it makes it so much harder to live a Godly lifestyle.
So, I love talking to my Pastor up here. I like to pry his brain about stuff. He's really intellectual and full of wisdom, Awesome man of God. So I talked to him today about loving here and almost afraid to go back home and of course he had things to tell me!!!!
He told me that Joseph lived in Egypt for 17 years, 7 of which he was in prison...the Bible says God was with him through all of it! He goes on to tell me "If I want to live for God, I will"!!!! He's praying that i find a prayer partner and that God does mighty things in my life, and he reasured me He would!
Exactly What I needed To Hear!!!

I'm just a Christian girl trying to make it in this crazy world we live in. Through out my life, on a daily basis, I'm continually learning new things and having epiphanies. In this blog I share those crazy thoughts of mine with you!

IBC or Gateway!?
Well my life lesson I learned this week has nothing to do with Bible College, which is what IBC and Gateway are, BTW! lol Im mean ya Im trying to decide which one I want to go to, but yep thats my biggest tradegy right now!
I went Illinois Youth Camp yesterday...ahhhhhmazzzing!
Man, I wish I could take this to my church, I wish they could hear the messages I've been hearing since I've got here! Maybe, things would change! Maybe, ppl would feel God's presence once again in there life! Maybe, just maybe God could take THEM by horns and run with them untill they get a sudden life evaluation that changes their whole aspect on GOD and church!
Maybe I can say something, but how I don't know yet!
Untill then God Is GREAT! & Life is Good, Don't let anyone tell you different!

Alone?!?!
Sometimes I feel like am.
Lately more then usual! I think I have friends until they ditch me, stand me up, or refuse to answer my text messages. I seriously have to sit and think of who my real friends are and i can only name a few!
I recently graduated and I threw this party and every other person had an excuse why they couldn't come and I try not to care, but I'm human how can I not. This past year happened so fast, and it just hit me how many people I'm no longer friends with and whom I'm no longer going to be friends with and it hurts! It really sucks when your stood up for a guy?!?! If I were to have a boyfriend i wouldn't do that to my friends and I don't understand why my friends do that to me!
I was talking to someone today and no longer will they...you wanna not be a true friend to me fine...idc I Got a Friend In Jesus and I'll be OK:)

"Want Want Want"
I noticed recently that I always am wanting something! Whether its money and possessions or love from a significant other, but the other day at church one of the elders came to the pulpit and quoted Psalms 23-The Lord is my Shepard I shall not want...Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life.
He says this then that night as I started getting upset and feeling lonely again, Tenth Ave. North's song, "By Your Side" comes on the radio. The lyrics to this song go something like this----"Why are you looking for love Why are you still searching as if I'm not enough"----WOW!!!!
Ha God speaks to us all the time, you just got to keep those ears open!
What I learned when I started listening was God has it under control. I need to stop wanting things I don't need or aren't intended to have just yet! It just isn't God's will yet and until it is I have his love and I shouldn't take it for granted or forget that. Psalms 23 says goodness and mercy shall follow you, and its so true. You and I have an amazing life ahead of us, but we got to run on God's time not our own!
