been a long time gone...yeah, i know
ok, WOW...i haven't updated this thing in a looooooooong time...sorry for all you avid readers...im sure you're jumpin for joy now.
anyway, the first two weeks at school have been wonderful!!!!!!! i absoutely LOVE una!!! the classes we've been taking at the student rec center are wonderful..AB ATTACK and starting tomorrow BUTTS & GUTS, and HIP HOP!! haha!!!!! i wasn't too sure about coming here, but i knew God had His reasons, and i'm starting to figure them out...slowly, but He's showing me in His own subtle, not-so-evident ways.
and thats my next point. I LOVE MY GOD!!! He's been so good to me so far this year, all my life really, but especially recently! If you know me, you're probably thinking...what are you happy about??---things haven't been going too well for me lately. i mean i cant complain, cause i'm still alive and able to see another one of God's beautiful days, but things just haven't been tip-top.....BUT, my dear sweet Savior has been teaching me things through all of these trials, and i'm finally starting to catch on. me, candice, amberlee, lindsay, amanda, and caleb all went to The Well tonight at Highland Baptist, and it was amazing!! God's doing some awesome things there, and i'm so glad i get to be a part of it!!! we're about to start a study on relationships, and how to be the men & women God wants us to be so we'll be good husbands & wives. and i feel like God put me there right at this specific point in time to teach me something. i'm not sure what yet...but i have a feeling. He's definitely telling me things, i just have to get myself where i need to be, so i'll be able to listen the right way.........soooooo, pretty m uch i just love my Lord and can't wait to see what all He has planned for me in the near future!!!--something that stuck out to me tonight was when Ed(the preacher) said, "today i'm getting my identity back, a daughter of The King!"...that was just AMAZING to me!!!!! it meant so much more to me than i can explain on here, but Jesus knows whats going on in my heart, cause He's the one who stirred it up to begin with!!!
just pray for me please...i need help doing this. college is hard, in many ways.....but God is good, and He's SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO worth it!! all this stuff will fade away over time, but He's the one thing that will NEVER change, and He will NEVER leave you!! thats what im learning....people are fickle. feelings change from one minute to the next, and you can never really tell what a person is truly thinking. you can be completely in love, so sure that n othing will ever happen to change that, and then all of a sudden something happens to make you question that....but God--His love will NEVER change!!!!!! that's a promise from The Man himself, and THAT is something i will never question!! yes, i am in love.....but as big as that love is, the love i have for my Savior far surpasses even that!!!! and i know without a doubt that my God loves me more than i can even fathom!!!!!!!! so, im not woried anymore. God's not gonna leave me stranded, and i've finally got a peace about that :)
soooo, God's good, life is good, and with all that said, i'm good!!!
i hope everyone is doing well!!!! i'm gonna try to update this thing more often, but im just SOOO busy now!
this love i have for you, this love in my heart, well, it goes all the way to the moon and back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
