The Story

So, I got this great book called, "The Story." It is basically the Bible in one big story and I love it. I have already learned so much from it and feel like more people should read it.

School is pretty good for me this week. I have a few projects due but other than that I am going to have a great week. Although I do have a huge paper due next week that is stressing me out a little bit.

So, tomorrow I have to get 2 passport pictures take so that I can send it in to IMB for my jman application and then my application will be reviewed. I wish I could send in just 2 pics of me but they are specific...so, I am going to CVS today to get passport pics taken.

So, I got a rice cooker and I love it. I love sticky rice and I cant believe that I havent bought a rice cooker before. What a great invention!! :-D

So, I love reading this one blog that cnn did a story on ...it ishttp://maxthegoldenretriever.com/ ...you should try it out! It's quiet hilarious!!

Well, I have to go read before my next class...until then....maybe think about buying "The Story"!!!

So, I decided to keep updating this....

Today I was just reading the Compass., my church's magazine they send out and something really touched my heart....It was talking about how Saul changed so drastically and made a HUGE difference for the Kingdom. It's so sad how so many people say "I am the way I am and I can't change that" or they say "my momma/daddy is like this and thats why I am"....well, you get the point. So, what I am saying is...YOU CAN CHANGE!!! Just think about Saul and how at the beginning of his life He killed Christians but God chose Him and CHANGED him so that he can be one of the most important people carrying the message of Christ around the World. He was able to change because Jesus came alive after being dead and His Spirit lived in Saul's heart. So, You can change!! It might take time but with God's help all things are possible!! You just have to be a willing vessel to Him!

So, I started applying to Journeyman this week and it is crazy to think that in a little over a year I will be leaving for life overseas. It is a little scary but more exciting than anything. I am so excited to see what Christ has for my life and how He is molding me into the woman of God that He wants me to be. I am so ready for this summer too. Everyone keeps asking me, "Where are you going this summer, or this year." haha...I am not going overseas this year ...surprised? Yeah well, Indonesia broke the bank for me ..It was definitely worth it though!! I am just going to do local things in Greenwood this summer and spend time with friends and family because this will be my last summer as a college student and probably last summer in Greenwood. Although, I am going to go visit my sister in Italy next year. Yep, I am going overseas soon, just not anymore this year. Amanda will be studying abroad next year and I am going to use my Spring Break and visit her and Italy.

So, there is some things going on in my thoughts...and now I am going to go visit my cousin ....Have a great day!!
