Broken Love

Ok guys! This is what I'm thinking about doing.... every week end (yes today is monday,.,,, I know) I wan to put my random thoughts for every day of the week.... cuz I have those a lot! lol some will be funny and some will be serious.... pretty much just random!!! lol so here is this week! Sunday: Are sun flowers called SUN flowers because they look like the sun or because they turn towards where ever the sun is shining? Monday: Orginized chaos! Tuesday: The way to a girls heart is through her hair! (thanks Esther!) Wednesday: Rest is needed in everyones life Thursday: When we are trying to "find ourselves" We shouldn't try so hard because God knows everything about us, and in his time he will show us things about ourself. So if we are grounded in Christ we are grounded in ourselves! Friday: The moon comes out every night, even in hard times to remind us that every day has the potential for beauty. ~The Perfect Man (it's a movie people!) Saturday: SETH IS 15 TOD...

My live was confusing, You were there. You told me what to do, Showed me that you care. My life felt complete, You lifted my weight. The twinkle in your eye made me giggle, I soared like a kite. Through the day and late into the night, We would laugh and talk. Telling anything and everything, Hoping we wouldn’t get caught. With every hug and every chat, What I did was not smart. Whether either of us knew it or not, I gave you my heart. I closed my eyes, I didn’t want to see. There were others, Not just me. You laughed and flirted, Played a game. Any time I had your attention, I did the same. I had to open my eyes, HE wasn’t there. It was just you and me, To you, to HIM, and to me it wasn’t fare. I can smile, Every time I dream. But it’s just that, A DREAM.

1 chorenhians 10:31 What ever you do, do it for the glory of GOD. I put this verse up on my mirror in the bath room so I can read it every morning. I have to be reminded all day every day that it's not about me it's about God, and it being about God means it's about the people around us. Today I reallllllly wanted to sleep in and NOT GO TO CHURCH, while I know God would still love me I went anyways and now I'm so glad I did. Our paster used a quote that said, "Live fully, Love wastefully." (sarah isn't smart enough to rember who said it.) When we put these two thoughts together we can truly learn to live like Christ and live the life that Christians are supposed to. I wrote a persuasive speech this year that is on a really hard issue for a lot of conservitive Christans to agree with. I have felt ever since summer that I was supossed to write it and give it at these tournoments. It's really hard for me because I'm really competitive.... that...

Ok guys! Wow so starting with the last tournament, Jennie broke her ankle, Caleb had appendicitis, And I was drugged up on Advil and what not the whole tournament, running about 101.5 fever. Ya it wasn't the best time ever.... we all pushed through this and other things.... for absolutely nothing. A few of our team mates did well and we were seriously over joyed for them! it was so awesome to see them happy and doing well! Josh did great, Mr Zach did pretty good, and Ash did good with her stuff :) So the whole time we were there from the moment we walked in the door Amber and I were told that our duo was something amazing, good luck, And that we were going to win. It was weird I didn't know half these people!!!! lol it was kinda cool... but it did put a lot of pressure on us to win. Ya we didn't even break. *sigh* it was for a lot of reasons.... but I watched some of the breaking duos.... and ya... not so hott..... So I come home like totally Sick and drop pratically at the...

OK THIS IS WHAT MY MOM AND I DID LAST NIGHT FOR HER WEEKLY DEVO. I THOUGHT I WOULD POST IT. IF YOU WANT TO GO TO HER WEB SIGHT GOT TO soulscents.us AND YOU CAN SIGN UP FOR HER WEEKLY DEVO! PRETTY AWEOSME!!! ANY WHAT ENJOY! The Tower By Paula Moldenhauer The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe. Proverbs 18:10 (NIV) The bitter north wind. A wave. A storm. For the last month we’ve used powerful metaphors to describe difficulty. But we’ve also embraced powerful pictures of safety—like resting in the middle of the boat, being held in the Lord’s hand, and focusing our minds on Christ so that we can live in perfect peace. This week I leave you with another picture of safety: a tower. This image became an increasing focus for me as the Lord brought it to me from various sources over the last five months. One of these sources was an email from a friend. I asked permission to share a portion of it: “The Lord told me we are all...

This is for God Chasen' Chicks!!!! I LOVE YOU GIRLS!!! Your all beautiful!!! I love you! Sometimes it seems my duty To be a cute little beauty. What could beauty be? Sometimes I think it’s anything but me. The world sees it as my perfect friend. I try to see it as a passing trend. High heels seem so cool But my feet at the end of the day say I’m a fool. Looking for dimples All I see is pimples. I want a flat tummy, But the food looks so yummy. Deeper and deeper I sink Then I step back to think. It’s not the hours we spend at the boutique, It’s the small, individual things that make us unique. I must stand up and let them see, What a beautiful, amazing person God made me to be. It took so long, But now I can be strong. For my life He has a plan, I can’t make it happen, but He can. No matter what they say, It’s what He says at the end of the day. Without a doubt, I’m beautiful inside and out.

Wow... that's about all I know how to say... but if that's all I said I don't think this would be a very good post.... lol so I guess I'll try to expand on that "wow". No one could ever think that a trip that starts at 5 am could turn out any good, but it turned out to be pretty good. We finally get on the road about 7:30. I'm in a car with some of the goofyest guys ever.... they turn on a STUPID song and dance to it... ya they already knew the moves they made up... pretty sad, but it kept us laughing and set a good mood for the rest of the trip. Getting up there was fun, Amber and I really got some help with our duo. We messed around and listened to music and stuff. It was all around a good day :) We had this thing called host housing, some one there that we didn't know opened up their house to us and let us stay there for the tournament. I was really nervous about this, knowing the homeschool community I was afraid to offend some one but knowing me ...
