Ramblings of my life

So i don't have anything really to talk about so i'm going to ramble about my day today and my day to be! First off, today might be monopoly day! Yippy! me and my friend terry every now and then just get together to play monopoly we recruit people every now and them but as many of you may know monopoly can be very time consuming. I enjoy it, i know i'm a freak! it can't be helped ;) On another note our little middle schooler cheerleaders have a competition tomorrow and me and a couple of other girls are going to help spot them when they go out there to do their thing! After that its off to Cheese cake factory (it's abby's, maressa AND callies b-day) combine 3 girls birthdays, cheesecake, and laser tag... we hoping for a fun night! Well i just had to write in my blog but i must go because i have a hopefully last b-ball game to cheer at tonight which i should have left Oh.. 2 minutes ago ;) Well I must run but don't worry i'm planning on writing a little note for myself on my left hand to not forget about my Lord in this hectic life!

No no no Drama

"Don't pull on my hand boy you aint my man boy, you don't want no drama no no no drama"

"I was sure by now,God, that You would have reached down
and wiped our tears away,
stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say amen
and it's still raining
as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain,
I'm with you
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away
And I'll praise you in this storm
and I will lift my hands
for You are who You are
no matter where I am
and every tear I've cried
You hold in your hand
You never left my side
and though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm"

Sorry for the long intro guys but these two songs are pretty much describing my life right now. I would just like to thank my friends and most importantly my Lord Jesus because If i didn't have him I'd be in a two day crying spree hiding in my room probably right now. BUT since my God is so good all my troubles and stress being thrown at my face by my school, teachers, parents, and boys are nothing. Not nothing like their not there, but man my Lord has just giving me this amazing peace, that maybe what happened wasn't right but everythings going to be okay. And i've had a pretty fun week so far =)
On a less happier note my contacts were driving me crazy today, i've had worse days but i think i might have had put my contact in backwards or something was in it and the dryness was not helping! Either way in my 7th hour of school my friend in front of me offered eye drops and a container. I was extremely grateful but figuring that i only had 15 minutes until school let out I figured my left eye could take just a little bit more!
Ooo Also i found this super cool blog that's.. I love faces and its a photo blog pretty much, its a really cool thing for people who enjoy taking photographs and you don't even have to be amazing. I'll post more about it later, once i actually find out more! haha

I think I got it!

I'm happy to announce I finally got my layout figured out and I now have a knew one as you can tell! =D I have a few more kinks to work out with changing my font to a color you can actually see! I will do it manually for now until I can figure out how to actually Html it in haha So I was thinking about Prayer and the Bible, a guest speaker came to my church he was talking about how he was in the soviet union when it was still communist and how he lost his bible and God being the great God he is supplied him miraculously with one. He talked about how he sat next to a person smuggling in bibles and how he saw it was new and thought she doesn't need that bible, the pages are sticking together, she doesn't even use it. She gave him that bible and that was just what he needed God put that right in front of him. As I came home I kept thinking back to what he said about the pages sticking together and how she doesn't even use it when people are hungering to read God's word. Guilt washed over me as I realize I don't read my bible as much as I need to. Actually very rarely do I actually sit and read the bible for a long amount of time. I'm sure i'm not the only one that has the problem that when you actually have a moment out of our normally hectic day, something always comes up. It's amazing how the devil does anything to keep us away from God's word! I suddenly have to take shower, my homework has to be done that i've been putting off, I need to do laundry or I'll have nothing to wear, I have to go shopping I need that new shirt NOW or it will be gone tomorrow. I'm all of the sudden extremely tired, If you ever want to go to bed early and your not tired try reading the bible. Not only is the bible kinda complex and at some times dull but someone else wants you to fall asleep and not read that message. So fellow Bloggers, I do not read my bible as much as I need to, and I'm going to try to start reading it more regularly. We can do it together and I will try to keep you all posted =)

Formatting

As I sit in my 3rd hour class and I wonder if I should focus my whole attention on my nice teacher who is lecturing at the front of my class. I should be taking notes, learning, taking in all of the subject for my future tests. All this is running at the back of my mind yet I can not help but to quickly check my Blog and make a quick post! ^.^ Well I don't know if it's just my computer I happen to be using or if I did mess up the side template of my blog. Hopefully all of you fellow bloggers see green and not a weird white area. I'm trying to update my Blog, add new Gadgets and make it more spiffy =) I apologize for not posting frequently sometimes I just don't have time, some day i will become a good multitasker haha I also don't have any amazing Godly words today nothing has hit me on the head but when it does i will be sure to post it and share it with you all. And i think i should let you all know i played my first game of scattergories and it was amazing fun and I advise you all to play sometime!!! If you do not own the game inform me or your next birthday and I will gladly buy it for you =) Well untill next time!

My thoughts for the day..

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

This serenity prayer is a little oval message hanging from my key chain so i tend to glance at it every once in awhile =) I was having a few confusing days this week just little problems. And I found my self doing it again - just thinking of me, worrying about me! Well Lori if you every read this I was want to say thank you because one of your post pretty much smacked me in the face and pushed me in the right direction again =) and i couldn't be more happy. I was extremely stressed I just felt that everything was on my shoulders and their was just decisions i had to make every moment and I just could do it, my head was going to pop off! Well luckily I read Lori's blog on Adoption and all these troubles these young children have to go through. I thought about my problems and realize they were nothing! My problems are not gone but now i'm not trying to track through the snow on my own anymore instead i'm just going to follow God's path he's already made for me =) I just have to keep reminding myself whenever i feel stressed/down that people around me are going through hard things too and mine are not the hardest. And I'm not alone in anything I do, I can do anything through christ who strengthens me.

My little tip for the day is Pray and Trust God and remember were not alone.. (It helps so so much!)
