I'm SOO Excited!!!!!

So I just got a call from my Mom and am so pumped about the answer to my prayers just TWO days ago!!

This may seem trivial to some of you but its just an awesome sign of how God cares about even the little things!

I have a HORRIBLE couch. Its over 30 years old, sinks when you sit on it, is too short and just kind of stinks. So my Mom has been trying to find me a couch on craigslist. Tuesday she sent me a picture of a futon she was looking at for me, and I didn't like it, i told her I"d been waiting for awhile and could wait longer for one I liked.

Well with that on my mind I went to bed several hours later and was praying (i pray in bed. quietest place i can find!!) and i was thinking about the couch situation and realized how utterly selfish i had been. My Mom have wanted/needed a new couch for their new room they added on to their house for several years now, but with Dad being downsized they haven't been able to afford one. Here my Mom is needing a new couch, and is putting her wants and needs aside so that I can have one. I felt horrible for being so selfish, my parents are the most giving, selfless people I know. They have sacrificed SO MUCH for me, and now she won't even get herself a new couch because she wants me to have one more. So that night after realizing all of this i spent some SERIOUS time in prayer praying specifically for the couch that I knew my Mom wanted.

Fast Forward to today, two days later. My Mom just called, she and My Dad were heading home with a new (to them!) couch and loveseat that had just come up on craigslist!! She was even able to get the recliner couch part that she wanted!!

I almost screamed in excitement when she told me! I think she was alittle bit taken back by my genuine excitement for her untill I tried to explain it.

But wait, it gets even better! God has doubly blessed us, because she is giving me their old couch, WHICH I LOVE!!!!! and it is perfect for me!!



JESUS IS SOOO COOL!!!

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

9/52

So I'm doing my best to get these weekly wrap up's done on Monday each week. Today has been a DOOZY. It's 9 pm and I am just now sitting down to check email and such. So if this post isn't the most well written, you'll understand once you read next week's wrap up about today!  In happier news we started off last week with my BIIIIRRRTTHHHDAAAYYYYY!!! And nothing says your Birthday like watching One Tree Hill and eating a piece of ice cream cake with lunch. Spoiler alert, I had a piece of Ice Cream cake every single day last week.  The chalkboard was updated, but sadly none of my pictures with said chalkboard looked decent.  I rocked my Be-You-Tiful shirt and a new necklace my Mom had given me.  And then I had a little photo session in the piano room with my balloons. Because, it was my birthday. and I was alone. So why not!  This is pretty much me in a nutshell... :)  Normally, I try to get work done before students arrive...
