| I came to my xanga tonight after a three month absence...... I am 22 now.... CRAZY! People getting married, birthdays, graduations, school........ the busyness of life surrounds me! When did we grow up? Do we ever? Sometimes I wish that there was a giant pause button to stop time.... then maybe I could take all this in! You know in a changing world I am glad the Lord is constant...... from beginning to end steady....... He is, and this is enough. Life is busy and if your not careful you get so caught up in that next thing that you forget to look around you and see that so many people are in need of the grace and love that is constant. There is no point from jumping to the next thing for it will never be enough...... School, Graduation, Work, Marriage, Kids, Graduation, Retirement, Grandkids...... what joy do these things bring with out the Maker? I think this will be my last post in xanga..... my theory is that xanga is dying or maybe just that its purpose has been served for me. For so long I have refused to get a myspace, I still do but now xanga is just to much! I prefer face to face, quality time that takes you away from the busyness of life and lets you reflect in fellowship with someone else. To those of you that would like to hear about my life... Call me! To those of you searching.... the answer is in this book, most call the Bible and on your knees..... to those of you that care, I luv you and so does our Father above. The End. | | |
| Thy mercy, my God, is the theme of my song,
The joy of my heart. and the boast of my tongue;
Thy free grace alone, from the first to the last,
Hath won my affections, and bound my soul fast. Without Thy sweet mercy I could not live here;
Sin would reduce me to utter despair;
But, through Thy free goodness, my spirits revive,
And He that first made me still keeps me alive. Thy mercy is more than a match for my heart,
Which wonders to feel its own hardness depart;
Dissolved by Thy goodness, I fall to the ground,
And weep to the praise of the mercy I’ve found. Great Father of mercies, Thy goodness I own,
And the covenant love of Thy crucified Son;
All praise to the Spirit, Whose whisper divine
Seals mercy, and pardon, and righteousness mine.
All praise to the Spirit, Whose whisper divine
Seals mercy, and pardon, and righteousness mine I went to the Derek Webb and Sandra McCraken concert last night. She sang this, and I love the words. The thing that has been shown to me over and over again lately is just to love, to show mercy, and be compassionate towards those around you. The way that I have found to do this is only through Christ, that if I am not in step with His will, then these things are hard. We Love because He first Loved us! Have a good day! | | |
| So I signed up for a student teaching position for the Spring....... FREAKY! Yes I may be teaching your kids one day........ Denton is my first choice then Cville/Gvine and Keller. Its so funny because all of my friends who I have talked to who just started teaching, have done a 180 as to if they like it. As I am sure it is with any new job, your excited at first but as the time goes on it becomes overwhelming and tiresome and just plain stressful.... but isnt that the joys of trials, that the Lord takes them and uses them to draw you closer to him. My life right now is so disorganized, I forgot my bf's birthday, my room is still in boxes and I have very little motivation for studying. But I rest in the fact that the Lord is leading me in this dance through life, and brings order to my craziness! I get to go on a mini road trip in two weekends, to see my wonderful grandmother and two friends! Im excited, bc I havent gone on a road trip in forever! This post is random.... but oh well! Does anyone else think its wierd that when you go to check your "footprints" all these random states blogs come up? Oh well must go be productive!
Adios amigos!
Praise be to the God and
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new
birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from
the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade—kept in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by God's power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. These
have come so that your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes
even though refined by fire—may be proved genuine and may result in
praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. Though
you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him
now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and
glorious joy, for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
1 Peter 1:3-9

| - Dixie Lullaby So... we dont have internet at the house, it doesnt look like we can get it either and the only thing that I can check at work is this thing... BUMMER! But in other news I am moved back up to Denton! I love the girls I live with and like getting to hang out with some of my friends from Collegelife and like being close to friends I havent seen in a long time! Besides the boxes of stuff I need to get rid of (moving completely out of your childhood home is HARD!) I am ready for this school year to start! This is my last full week of work, this summer has taught me so much! Well I guess I must get back to work. I dont know when I will write again, but then again I dont know if anyone actually reads this anymore! Call me if you want to talk, hang out or just do something random!
ADIOS!
