so im really tired, and schools starting to get to me now, so this is going to be a pretty short entry.

thanksgiving has been amazing i love seeing all my family and spending so much time with them! im just so tired now, and i really didnt get to sleep much on this break, because of all the traveling, waking up real early to drive more. but thats ok because it was worth it getting to spend time with the familly...

tomorrow im singing a duet with my dad in church and im really excited for that because i love doing things with my dad. we're singing amazing grace, but not the original version. the chris tomlin version which is a lot alike but he added a chorus. anyway i am really really tired now so im going to crawl in my nice cozy bed which my dog is keeping warm for me :)

goodnight

thank you God for all of your blessings

So today was an incredible day!!! After an amazing day of work, i came back to my dorm and called my dad because he was going to stop by today, I was so excited!!! I called and he was 5 minutes away!! when he got here i threw my arms around him and couldnt let go the whole time he stayed. Soon after he got here, my sister.. BECKIE came over to school!!! we all went to walmart and got some sweet clean breeze detergent and dryer sheets!!! they smell @mazing!! so we came back and my dad had to leave, more hugs and then dinner. SO tonight beckie and i went to a concert!!! lemme tell you it was incredible!!! ahhhhh i LOVED it!! STEVEN CURTUS CHAPMAN, SANCTUS REAL, and Bethany Dillian!!!!!! I met the guys from sanctus read and got lots of pictures!! it was amazing! God is so good and so faithful and perfect!!!! i love him so much!!

and that is why this enrty is so late at night, or i guess you could say eary morning. :)

The Things I Ponder...

I sit here sipping hott chocolate that has now become chocolate milk, which doesnt have a whole lot of milk in it because we make it with water, so really it would be chocolate water. hmmmm
anyway, it's cold outside and i think that that is rediculous becasue it is still suppost to be autumn. which makes me think that it is going to be a very very cold winter, and i have just descovered that i do not do well in the cold. Winter though has a understood reason for the cold.... snow. BUT if there is no snow, i see no excuse for it to be so down-right cold.
Now today i got a free shirt from the blood drive. Not that i gave blood to deserve it though. It is quite upsetting to think about not being able to give blood. Being a diabetic they say i cant, which makes no sense at all since us insulin dependet diabetics are not afraid of needles like eveyone else in the world. I love giving blood, not that i have ever gotten to give a pint. but going every 3 months to get blood taken is funn, at least i think so, i actually like to watch the needle go in and all :) call me strange... or just call me diabetic.

so those are just some random tid-bits that run through my mind now and then.
Have a wonderful night Ya'll

I really dont know what to say, i dont know if im ahead in my journals at all but heres another one...

God is so awesome! he has been blessing me so incredably much!! he has given me all things that i dont deserve. I thrive on friendship and helping others. giving advice and trying to just encouage others. tonight i got the opportunity twice. God has been filling this longing that has been in me for being an advice giver i guess.. and it just feels so right to encourage others how i know God is leading me.

its something too that i have been thinking about, being there for others with any problems they might have, i just feel so right in them coming and confiding in me. so it makes me wonder if maybe i should be looking into counceling or something in that area rather than office procedures, what i am in.

Still looking for all of God's guidence in all these areas.
Short entry but its all i have.

Yes, i am actually home! and so excited to be here! Seeing my family, and getting to be with my family for a few days is just wonderful! being with my church family and getting to lead them in worship is something i have passionatly missed! i almost want to say that i cant wait for sunday, but then i would be missing out on the days until then. God has revealed himself to me so much! and i cannot thank him enough for the blessings that he has been pouring out on me. I dont know why, but i feel like something devestating should be coming into my life just because my life has been so perfect, and so blessed! I dont think anyone can be as exteamily blessed as i am now!! let me just tell you, whoever might be reading this, GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS! He does. it may not be when you want but its when he wants, and it is what is best, it is the perfect timing.

"The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective."
                                                      James 2:16

I encourage everyone to pray with all your heart, come broken to God, "The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contraite heart" Psalm 51:17 Especially when you are in your weakest moment, God's strength is made perfect in our weakness.

God you AMAZE me!! Let me amaze you.
