I <3 Mobile!!!!

Wow! This past weekend I've been up in Mobile and It's amazing!!!! I love it here! Besides the fact that 3 of my closest and coolest friends attend the people I've met are amazing!! And the environent is like totally Awesome!! I mean it's totally... Christian. lol There's no other way to put it. This campus is the perfect place to prove that Christians can have fun to!!!! Me being here is also great because of everything i've had to deal with since being here.

I found out Friday morning that my Papa has cancer. I haven't really been able to admit it til today. The people I'm around (Lindsey, Bryley, and Jessica) even though they don't know what's going on they still are uplifting. I love them to death!! The smiles I see when I turn every corner are what get me through each negative thought. Or maybe not negative thought but wondering thought. As in will he make it or what's going to happen. They help me to carry on through everything. My mom isn't telling me what all is going on but I hope and pray that everything is ok.

Then besides that me and my boyfriend are going through a slight arguement where he(to me) is acting like a complete jerk!! Grrr! He thinks that the minute I'm away from Headland I'm going to cheat on him. I'm not that kind of person. And he talks about how much he likes me and trusts me and it really agravates me that he says or said the stuff he did. Then he goes on acting like nothing happened. It makes me really mad. But, I guess I'll get over it.

And this morning we went to church at North Mobile ( NoMo as it is known here). I LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!! It is just my kind of church! The worship was amazing and the pastor gave a great sermon on the unconvential war going on between us and Satan. It really made me think and gave me something to speak on at our next 1st Priority meeting!!! And God also helped me show kindness during Sunday School. I'm not one to willingly help someone out like just out of the blue. But He (God made me today) I can't say that I loved it but it was good for me.

This wekend has showed me a few things or life lesons shall I say!

Friends will always be there with you, and never abandon you for their friends.
Boys stink!!!
And, God knows what you need to here and when you need to hear it.



And on a random note: The reason my wireless internet wasn't working was because I didn't have the wireless switch turned on. I feel like a complete idiot but thanks to Lindsey Gay I'm back in the real world.

Confusion

I haven't posted in a while and felt that know was a time to update everything. Well it's my Junior year and everything has picked up super quick. All my close best friends are off at college so I don't get to talk to them all the time and that stinks alot. But now a days I have no time to talk to them.

Homecoming is coming up for my school and that means craziness for me. I am treasurer of SGA which means I get to help organize the hc parade that week along with See You At The Pole that Wednesday and the Rally that night. Then that thursday yearbook is going to a conference in Troy and that Friday is homecoming. That weekend I will have to decorate for the dance, set up the parade, be in the parade as mascot, go be mascot at the game then get ready for the dance. That Saturday I have to go and clean up the gym and then that Sunday I have a People's to People's meeting in Montgomery for a trip to Australia I may get to go on.

Not to mention there is this whole other situation that has come up that totally confuses me and makes me wonder(you won't hear about that). Then I also have to keep up my devotions and stay focused on God while spending time with my family. What helps everything else out is the job I have on top of all that stuff. IIIIIHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just needed to write all this stuff out and get it out of my brain. I'll try to blog more this next month. No promises.

New Year = New Me

The end of 2007 and begginning of 2008 have already brought me so many choices. If this is how 2008 is going to look I don't really want to live it. I made a New Years Resolution to read straight threw the New Testament and I started a little early. I started reading on the 26th of December and God totally gave me this awesome message to share at our 1st 1st Priority Meeting. I really liked it and had talked to my Nana about it. She liked it too. Anyways I got real excited about it and thanked God for it. I feel that 2008 is going to be GOD'S year and I think that 2008 was the year He wanted the 1st lesson or message to be written.


I was texting a friend January 1st and reading my EC when God changed the lesson. It was the same verse but a different spin on it. It killed me that He changed it write there on the spot but now I think it will have even more of an impact on the people that will recieve it.

Back to choices, I had to make so many choices in December of 2007 and the first 2 days of January that I never thought I would have to. I had my Christmas break planned and ready to go until I got a baby-sitting job. I had to baby-sit the 1st 2 weeks and then I was going to go on a ski trip the last week. Well that would mean no sleep at all on my break. So I couldn't not baby-sit so I decided to drop out of the ski trip. Well then my Gran called me and told me about this American Girl thing in Atlanta the last Friday of the break. I was ok with it until I found out that we have a basketball game Saturday that I wouldn't be here for(It's an important game).
So I decided to stay which leads me to the reason I'm writing.

I just got so frustrated with everything and it started making me mad that I was having to drop out of all these things. SO I changed my mind about my New Years Resolution to be getting closer to God and keeping in touch with him and making decisions based on what He wants for me. This year I will grow closer to God because I'm determined to live differently with out my comfort zone like I did most of last year. I just have to remember one thing

Psalm 62:7
"My victory and honor come from God alone.
He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me."
