Tweet I seem to have run out of the blogging juices-they just aren’t flowing. But yet, I am still inclined to write. So when I do think of something to say I will write..right now I have to eat or I would finish my thought..

Will I ever make it? (ec)
Tweet This was the title for this weeks blog, and as I was thinking about it, one thought came into my head..will I ever make it to heaven? It honestly doesn’t seem like it’s coming fast enough. not that I want to die tomorrow..but I really can’t wait for heaven. there have been some things lately that in my mind seem like they went really wrong..I know God has a perfect plan, but I really can’t wait to get to heaven and never have a problem again. It’s going to be beyond words. To echo a song by Mercy Me, “I can only imagine..” Seeing Christ face to face is…

Tweet ugh..I just wrote this long post and now it is gone. oh well, guess it wasn’t something that was supposed to be posted. (not that is was bad or anything..) Just want to leave you with a verse I’ve been working on applying to my life. I struggle with gossip and I hate it when I know other people do it, so I figured I should probably be working on it myself. Psalm 19:14, “Let the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be pleasing in your sight Oh Lord, my rock and my redeemer.:

Gossip
Tweet I hate gossip. I hate it more then a lot of things. But I was reading my bible last night, and I realized I am so often at fault for doing the very thing I hate. I cannot stand it when my “friends” talk about me..it is just not friendly. But how often am I talking about them? more then I care to admit-although not all of it is gossip. Matthew says to take the log out of your eye before you look at the spec in anothers. I can’t get mad or confront other people on gossiping when I myself am doing the same thing. Not that I…

Tweet Prom! Well-I got the chance! For so long I have wanted to go to prom, and I finally got to go. Honestly, I can’t tell you what attracted me so much to it-perhaps the allure of it all or the fact that my school doesn’t have one. But regardless, it was one of those things I’ve wanted to do. And I had so much fun! :)Well, I’m not going to expand on anything else here. I don’t want to bore you all with the details!

Tweet Have you ever gotten in one of those sentimental, mushy moods where everything seems to make you tear up? (I know guys, you probably can’t relate!) Lately for some odd reason, it seems like there are a lot of things in my life that I miss. Things that aren’t good or bad, right or wrong, just things that have come and gone over my life. and lately, whether it’s been conversations, other people, or even just a thought-I start to miss things.. I sit and ponder over why things have happened the way they have..how come things couldn’t have just turned out perfectly.. or at least what I thought…

It’s Not Over Yet!
Tweet It’s Not Over Yet! I think most of us are in the “Can’t wait to get out” mentality. There isn’t much of school left and most of us are so ready for it to be summer. I know I can’t wait. But you will never know or realize how much of life you will miss by always looking forward to the next great thing. Matt. 6:34 says, “Do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will take care of itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” Every day is a God given chance to glorify Him and grow to become more like His Son. But so many times…

I Had an Old Box…(ec)
Tweet I Had an Old Box…(ec) I had an old box, it was an refrigerator box-one of those really big ones! I guess maybe it wasn’t really really old, but it was from our new refrigerator and I got this brilliant idea to turn it into a house. So in the middle of my living room I cut and colored and added fabric to turn that old box into a wonderful house. I could stand up in it..but I could crawl around and I was little so it didn’t bother me. I loved that house..I played in it for many days. But it was cardboard and eventually it was falling…

Relationships
Tweet Relationships Relationships are a huge part of life. Perhaps that is why God devoted most of the New Testament to talking about them. But why are they also often the source of trials and hardship. God has been teaching me a lot lately about what’s important in life. I am so quick to look out for #1 and forget that there are other people in my life. Sadly, my family usually gets the short end of the stick too. I was reading in my devotions last night, and I decided to read Psalms. I love that book, and I love how often David cries out to God. I realized…

Spring Break (ec)
Tweet Spring Break (ec) I fell in love- in love with New York City! It was so much fun. My mom and I went to visit her best friend who lives in Queens, NY-one of the burrows of NYC. We spent two days shopping in Manhattan! Talk about fun. We walked up and down 5th ave-going in and out of all the fancy shops that the stars shop at. We went to Trump Tower-that was cool. The man is mega rich..you can tell by His building-everything is Trump this or Trump that. Hum..I don’t want to bore you all too much so let’s see. We spent part of a day…
