SCRIPTURE
"Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this: He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, the justice of your cause like the noonday sun. Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes."
Psalm 37:3-7

INSIGHT ABOUT THE LAYOUT
After I posted the layout, God showed me something through something that I had typed:  "I know it's simple, but I love it" That just kind of hit me. You know how God's love it simple? Yet it is so extravagant, and He loves us more than we could ever know, despite our failures. He is always there to welcome us back into His open arms, no matter what. We just have to see that He actually IS there and He DOES care how we live ours lives. After all, He did create us to Glorify Him, did He not?

It's been awhile, I know. It has been very crazy around here lately. I am moving into an apartment next week with a friend of mine and my parents and little brother are moving away. So, we've been getting everything together for that. We did sell our house. In ONE month. That was such a big blessing! God's hand has totally been over the whole process. He has been teaching me a lot about trusting Him more than I had been. For that I thankful.

School has been crazy as well. Because of the whole moving process. Trying to do school in the midst of moving is quite difficult. I am getting everything done, and I am doing the best of my ability, but I just wish I had more time to work on everything. That's another God has been merciful towards me about. When everything just starts getting crazy, I just pray that God would help me,  I give him the situation, and in return He gives me peace that surpasses all understanding. Again, I am thankful for that.

I ask that everyone keep me and my family in your prayers at this time of transition. I know I am going to miss them and this house, but I know this what we are all suppose to do at this point in our lives. I know this won't be the last time I see my parents (Heck, I'm going to visit them next month!), but I have lived under their roof for over 20 years. But like I said, it will be good, and a growing experience for all.

Hello to all! Things are going good lately. Good and busy. We're in the process of selling a house and finding me and my friend an apartment. Not to mention, school, and everything else in between. So it has pretty much been craziness all around.

Tomorrow, my Spring Beak starts. I also have a Math test I have to take.  Joy. And I will be skipping my last class because I have to go home early and get my things together so that my mom can take me to the airport, because my flight leaves early in the afternoon.

I started my health class tonight. It's only two hour, instead of four, and it's going to be a very easy class. Our teacher even said that we would have to work at failing. heh Oh, and we'll get certified in CPR and First Aid. So, this is good!

I have packing and studying to do, so I am off! Everyone have a great week

Hello all, I just finished with a new layout over a Dimensions. Took me a couple days, but it is finally up. :) There are a few new icons, as well. No new Wallpapers, but hopefully that will be coming soon.

I hope everyone is doing good. I am doing great! God keeps on showing and teaching g me so much, and it is amazing! Praise God! He has especially blessed me with some incredible girl friends and we are constantly lifting each other up through whatever is going on. Praise God, again! :)

I must go, things await to be done, today. God's blessings to you all!

Well, I finally made a new layout. I know it's simple, but I love it. I find amusing, though, that I made it the day I woke up sick. Yesterday, as a matter of fact, and I am not any better today. Therefore, I am skipping my classes today. I know, I know...

Let me tell you, though, you don't want to be around me when I am sick. I'm not that pleasant. If not pleasant at all. heh

Speaking of school, everything is going well there. My night classes for the first eight weeks are almost over. I have a final next week, and in which I have a 'B' in that class right now. Very happy about that. I just hope I do well on the final. And the my other class I have an 'A'. VERY, VERY happy about that! hehe ;) It's all leading up to Spring Break which I am VERY, VERY excited about. I will be going to visit some friends up north for a few days, and then I will come back home, and go to Nashville with a few of my other friends. YAY! :-D My first road trip! It's going to be great!

Things have been crazy lately. A lot has been going on. A lot of personal stuff. But God has really been my rock through it all. He is teaching me a lot about myself and how to handle the situations around me. The most amazing thing is how he shows you that the friends that you already have are dealing with the same thing and that you can help each other out. It's totally been God! A few friends of mine and I started a prayer group and we're meeting weekly. We had our first meeting this past week and it was completely amazing! I know we all felt a lot better after we got done.

Other than all of that, things are going pretty good. School is school. lol I have my first test on Wednesday. I have a paper due next week. It's all good!

I have discovered an amazing acapella group called Chapter 6. They are absolutely wonderful! They're in their mid-20's and met in college awhile back. They're Christians. They sing serious songs ("How Deep is Your Love" by the BeeGee's), and funny songs that they have written ("Krispy Kreme" and "Lost in Canada"). When they sing, you don't even miss the instruments because they use their voices to make the sounds of instruments. Check them out!

Today I am getting signed up to be an official MARK representative. YAY! I will finally get to sell MARK!

For those of you who didn't know, I went to Nashville last week for Passion 2005. To say the least, it was indescribable. I can't begin to describe what all God did and is still doing. As Louie Giglio said, you don't need to join Passion, because you ARE Passion. :-D Because Passions vision is to live for God's renown. Which is God's fame that will never fade away. That is my vision as well. To live for God's glory. BTW, they are having Passion again next year at the same place for anyone who wants to go. I know it's a year away, but hey, it's never too early to plan on going. :)

School started today. I'm taking 18th hours. WHEE! It won't be too bad because it's all going to be spaced out. Thank God for night classes that only last half the time! lol :) I'm taking some awesome classes too. One in which is going to be freaking easy. heh It's all good though. I'm very excited!!!

Well, I am off to bed. I have to go to school tomorrow morning to fix some stuff and get another book. SO, toodles, my dear friends! Much love to all!
