when will I learn

When will I learn to go to bed earlier.
To do my homework sooner.
To eat more vegtables
To write more 'thank you' notes.
To not put my hope in people.
To take my earrings out before I fall asleep.
To commit everything to prayer.

Everything comes in full circle and while I've learned it's like sometimes I haven't.

____
My good friend just came home from a 10-day missions trip from Rwanda. She explained that because she has seen she is now responsible. She talked about the genocide that happened there 20 summmmin years ago. I didn't know such a talk could break my heart yet heal it at the same time.

My heart breaks for those lost people of the world yet it gives my heart hope that there is something that I am fighting for.

I need to stop biting my nails tho.

how great

howdy

it's been so amazing these past few weeks. a lots been changing.

the faithfulness of God is soooooooooooooooo what you expect but never see it coming. even though you should.

keep praying my friends. i was so unsure about my trip and in just one night, God provided 193 dollars. It's going to keep happening, and I am so excited to see God move.

Speaking of, I bought my ticket to London today! I have a layover in Iceland for NINE hours. What am I going to do for nine hours?


I guess we'll find out. This is going to be so interesting, and I will keep anyone who reads this updated as the times go on.

he cannot deny himself

I watch tv.

For the heck of it, to feel emotion sometimes, and always to get through my workouts at the gym. TV is sort of a release from reality and it's always the best to watch and see how a character grows.

I also love TV because it is so good to see people live life together. To spend time and to depend on each other. Life is special and the people we share it with can really make it or break it for some of us.


These people live life together. They have spent years together. Laughing, living, crying, relationships and even anger.

It's BEAUTIFUL.

Now, here I am. I always relate life back to these shows. This crap is fake and it is not real. However, deep down, the truth is that I am close to these shows more than I realize.

Raising support for my trip has proved that, because there comes a time when I realize that people will support missions when they know someone and even when they don't. In this 'family' that I have, we are so big and we support each other in an even bigger way. I love it.

God has been so good and so faithful. In a matter of 1.5 hours, I raised 193 dollars! By three random people that I was not expecting anything from.

On a note so spiritual note, I have friends that I can go to places with, guys and girls, and just talk. Randomly, seriously, jokingly, awesomingely, spyingly (that one doesn't make so much sense).


Life is meant to live in community. So go live it.
