Burning Bright For You
You, O Lord, keep my lamp burning; my God turns my darkness into light. Psalm 18:28

Sorry...
Hey!! I haven't posted in a while and I'm very sorry!! Anyways, I've had lots of questions going through my mind lately. One of them I thought about a lot today. I'm very confused. God can be confusing. Well, today this one question kept on popping up in my mind. How are we supposed to give everything to God, but still have enough for us? I don't know how else to word it. I know that sounds selfish. :/ okay, so seriously how? Everyone is always saying you have to give everything to God and the needy. Which I get and don't mind at all, but if we give everything to God and the needy how are we supposed to "be afloat"? Like this: of I gave all of my clothes to the needy, All of my money to my church, and all of my food to the hungry is there any left for me to survive? I feel so bad for asking this because it's very selfish, but I really want to know. I don't know. I'm very confused by a lot of tho gs lately. I feel like I'm just babbling on and on. I need to have faith that God will provide for me no matter what. I need to work on that. My faith in Him. I need to work on a lot of things. Well... That's about it I guess. Have a blessed day! :)

What to do? What to do?
I know I haven't posted anything in a while, but I shall today. Where should I start? Well, first off my life is horrible at the time being. My parents are fighting lots and I can't do anything about it. It makes me so frustrated. Being the person that I am, I want to try and help everyone, but I simply can't help this. It's bugging the poop out of me. Secondly, lots of my friends are going through some hard times as well. Again, I can't do anything about it. All I can do is try and comfort them and pray for them. I mean praying is a powerful thing and I'm glad that I can at least do that much, but it's hard. It's hard for them, their families, and me. I think the thing that is most affecting my life right now is my fry. :/ He and I are so close and I'm afraid I'm going to lose him. Everyone is saying that he is only stepping back in the youth group not my life, but I see him most at youth and I'm worried that sooner or later we wont be as good as fries as we are now. And I don't want that to happen! At all! :/ I can't lose another person in my life, if I do, then I'm basically gonna die. I have already lost some other people and I just can't. Everyone is also saying, "It's going to be okay." But they don't understand. I wasn't bawling last night for the fun of it. I was bawling because this is a HUGE change in my life. And I love change and all, but some of it I hate. Like I hated the change when my parents split up, I hated the change when two of my best friends went to college, and I'm hating this change now! I don't know what to do! Like I have cried so much this past week and I feel like that's the only thing I can do. I have amazing friends helping me and they are there for me, but like I'm so confused. A lot of people yesterday were like just going on like everything was okay and nothing had happened, but something did happen and I can't just ignore it! I don't know, all I know is that I'm confused! :/ Well, last night through my tears I found the Bible verse Hebrews 13:5. And part of it really stuck with me. "...Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."

Christmas/ New Year :)
Well, the holiday season has passed! But, all was a blast! Haha! It rhymes :) Well, for Christmas Eve, I went to my Grammie's. We opened presents there, ate dinner, and played some games. Once, we were finished there we went home and opened a gift. Then, we watched some Christmas movies and went to bed. The next morning we woke up really early... and opened more presents, ate breakfast, and hung out. Then, around lunch we went to my Grandaddy's and Mimi's house where there was a house full of people! We ate lunch, hung out, opened presents, and ate dinner. Now, in all of those events, we didn't really praise God. I think that something NEEDS to change. I mean, yes we said blessings, read the Bible story, and prayed, but that's not much. I wish we could do more, but I don't think it really crosses our minds, because all we are worried about are the presents. WHICH IS NOT GOOD! Like, yes we can be excited about the presents and stuff, but we are making it all about the presents. And not just my family is doing that. Millions of families are. Again! Something NEEDS to change! Well, for New Year's Eve I had a party. It was fun. We had like 25 people there and lots of food. It was a little crazy too. We played games, watched TV, watched the ball drop and the men jump the bridge. It was a crazy night. But, it was fun. We got to hang out with our friends and me personally experienced many awkward moments. (thanks kathryn/dad/tara) Golly, well it's been a hectic last couple of weeks, but now school has started, homework has begun, and no more staying up til 4 in the morning. Well, the Bible verse I am going to leave you with is... Psalm 42:1-2! :)

Bitter-Sweet
Today has been a bitter-sweet day. This morning I walked in the school and I completely flat out fell because my crutches were wet. By the way, I had surgery 2 weeks ago on my knee. And so it was raining and I didn't even think that my crutches would be wet and the floor would be slippery. So, I came in and down I went. It was bad. I started crying like crazy! Then, the police officer, Runyon, came over, picked me up, and took me into the office. Well, my mom did too, but ya know. So, I got ice on it and it's still swollen. And this happened at 8:05 in the morning and it hurts still at 5:30. So, that's not good. But, I got to go back to my doctor today, also about my knee. He said I get to start doing physical theropy again. :/ But, that's good, I guess, even though I don't like it. Oh well, I gotta do what I gotta go.
Now, I'm beginning to get sad because we have to get rid of one of our dogs. :( Her name is Lily and she is 7 months old, I think. I love her to death, but she and our other dog, Shadow, are NOT getting along at all. So, we found a home for her. A good home too. So, that's the sweet part of that story. Well, the people that are taking Lily are about to come and pick her up. Then, I am going to church for C.Re.W. I'm pretty excited! :) Well, so I think I am gonna give y'all a Bible verse today... it is going to be... Romans 1: 9-10. :)

Hey Y'all!
Hey! So, I just made a blog and I am now learning how to use it. It's very confusing. So, I many made this blog for me. And me only. I mean it's great and all that y'all are gonna look at it. Wahoo. But, I mean whatever. I made this blog so I can get things out. Lately, it's felt like I have been botteling up a lot of things and I wanna get them out. So, I can feel a little better at the end of the day. Well, that's all I'm gonna post today because I have a ton of homework to do and I haven't started any of it at all! So, later y'all. I hope y'all enjoy my blog. Well, maybe not today's post, but I can understand that.
