So, tomorrow I leave for Washington. *throws a big party* I absolutely love Washington, though I am disappointed we will not be staying with the amazing Elya clan. I had just gotten completely comfortable with staying there and now we have to go somewhere else. Where that somewhere else is we don't know at the moment. That fact is the only letdown of the trip, for I am rather nervous about staying at someone else's house. It might be a tad awkward.
I had an amazing day today. I hung around the house doing absolutely nothing, and then I went to play what I consider one of the best sports ever (and my personal favorite). Basketball. YAY!!!!!!! After we played for roughly two hours, we packed up (hurt ankles and all) and went to the home of the incredible Farrar's to swim, eat baked potatoes, and play games. It was great fun! I am now home and ready to go to sleep. I apologize, for I will not be able to continue my speech. But I will try to finish it as soon as I get home. So, I shall bid you all bon jour and a pleasant evening to you all. (Even though it is not evening anymore, but night. and 10:37 at that.) I shall miss you all terribly!
The End.......

Deeper Thoughts
Life: The series of experiences , of body and mind, which make up the history of a human from birth to death.
Doesn't sound very complicated does it? It's a lot more complicated than I thought. God has given me many challenges throughout my young life. Some I thought I would never get out of. But lets look at I Corinthians 10:13. "No temptation has overtaken you except such that is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it."
Wow, God! Thanks for telling me that so plainly! He makes it so easy for us to understand. I cried out to Him when I went through some of those trials and each time He recited that verse to me.
"I will help you through it, little child. You are mine and I love you. I wont let anything happen to you."
That is one of my biggest comforts. I'm his child!!!! He called me His child! Me, a low down, good for nothing sinner. I'm constantly stabbing him in the back! "Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more." -Hebrews 10:17
Incredible. I have a horrible time just forgiving my friends and family, much less forgetting it. But my sin He shall remember no more. I love my God.
There are times where I feel like I'm not important to anyone. I just keep pushing through all my problems, and no one seems to notice. my problems aren't important. they are to small and insignificant. No. God doesn't say that! Do you know how important you are to Him??? He cares for every single sparrow out there. (Luke 12:7b) But he tells us we are more important than many sparrows! He takes the time to pick us up when we fall down, to comfort us when we are sad. He looks at us when we think we aren't important and He says, "wow. Look at my child. He/She is so important! I love my child so much that you cant describe it in 5 million sentances. He/She is just the way I want him/her."
It blows my mind that I am so important to him. I feel so full when I think of Him loving me that way. All warm and toasty, like i just came out of the deep fryer. So, since my brain is shutting down, I shall now say,

ouch
I decided that even the worst jobs can be good for something. Lifting pounds of horse manure sure gives you muscles! yay! but now my arms hurt. a lot. I also decided that no matter how fun it would be to own a ranch, it would be to much work. Unless I had a lot of handsome ranch hands. haha. you have the payments to make, hay to buy, poop to scoop, fences to build and repair.... Lots and lots of money..... Money that you get by getting someone to sponsor you (or whatever they do) wich means making phone calls, and making appointments. blech. At one point I thought, 'hey, I could make my ranch into a place that neglected kids come and ride! I could earn money that way!' well guess what! I'd have to go to college to get a buisness degree. So, after putting all that effort into thinking of how I was going to do it all, i decided that I will probably go to RCC (AKA the black hole of educational death) and major in cosmetology. The end.
My First Day!
Yay! I finally started a blog! I've been wanting to start one for some time now and just never got around to it. To start out this new journey, I shall tell you about the amazing book I'm reading. It's called, When God Writes Your Love Story. I must say it is one of the best books I've read by far. I haven't always entrusted my feelings and such to God. I tend to take things into my own hands when they don't happen fast enough. But this book has taught me how to do that, and I'm now going to take their advice and start focusing on the man God has for me rather then the guys around me in everyday life. So, if you are ever at a loss of what to do and you want a good book, read that. It's incredible!!!!! well, thats all i have to say, so Ta Ta for now!
