BLOGS
I love reading other peoples blogs. I read peoples that I know, people I've met one time and people I'll never meet in my life. I like reading about peoples life's and the different things that people go through. My friend Kristie has a blog(http://klgoodyear.blogspot.com/) and I thought I would just look at the people that she follows to see if I would want to read any of their blogs. Well for some reason I always end up picking the sad ones. So I have started reading http://alicepyne.blogspot.com/ its about a 15 year old girl who has been living with cancer for 4 years and she has made a bucket list of things she wants to do before she dies....yes sad I know but she has such a positive outlook on life. It made me think about how I complain about the smallest stuff in life and hello the girl is 15 and dying of cancer and you don't see her complaining. So starting tomorrow because I have already complained today..oops, my goal is to try and go all weekend with out complaining about one thing, my family readimg this will probably laugh and think I wont do it but I'm determined...HOPE I CAN DO IT :)

PLAYING CATCH UP..
I HAVEN'T BLOGGED IN A WHILE I HAVE A LOT OF CATCHING UP TO DO.
MY TRIP TO NEW YORK WAS FABULOUS I HAD SO MUCH FUN IT WAS EXHAUSTING BUT I'LL
DO A POST ABOUT THAT LATER WHEN I HAVE TIME. THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS HAVE BEEN FUN AND
A WHOLE LOT OF NEW THINGS HAPPENING. MOST OF YOU KNOW THAT MY BOYFRIEND TRES WAS A
YOUTH PASTOR AT A CHURCH IN MT.OLIVE CALLED 29:11. WELL A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO HE GOT A
GREAT OPPURITY TO MOVE TO A CHURCH IN CULLMAN CALLED DAYSTAR.
SO HE TOOK IT AND OFF HE WENT TO DAYSTAR. HE IS GOING TO BE WHAT THEY
CALLED THE ASSOCIATE YOUTH PASTOR. DAYSTAR ALREADY HAS TWO YOUTH PASTORS ONE FOR THE
HIGH SCHOOL AND ONE FOR THE JUNIOR HIGH. I THINK TRES WILL BE DOING JUST WHATEVER THEY NEED
HIM TO DO. LAST SUNDAY WAS OUR FIRST SUNDAY TO GO TO CHURCH THERE, I LOVED IT I
REALLY LIKED THE PASTOR AND THE WORSHIP WAS REALLY GOOD.
LAST NIGHT WAS OUR FIRST WEDNESDAY TO BE WITH THE YOUTH. TRES HAS TO BE THERE
ALL DAY ON WEDNESDAY SO I HAVE TO LEAVE WORK RUN HOME CHANGE AND HEAD TO
CULLMAN. LAST NIGHT I WAS SO NERVOUS. WALKING INTO A ROOM WHERE I DIDN'T KNOW
ANYONE AND KNOWING THAT TRES WOULD HAVE TO LEAVE ME AT TIMES
WAS A LITTLE BIT SCARY...BUT I MADE IT. THE PEOPLE WERE REALLY NICE AND MADE ME FEEL
COMFORTABLE SO IT WASN'T BAD AT ALL. TRES SPOKE LAST NIGHT AND DID AN AWESOME
JOB. HE IS A REALLY GOOD SPEAKER I'M NOT JUST SAYING IT BECAUSE
HE IS MY BOYFRIEND. HE IS ONE OF THOSE SPEAKERS THAT WHEN HE IS DONE
I FEEL LIKE EVERYONE LIKE A LITTLE SOMETHING FROM HIS MESSAGE.
I AM SO THANKFUL AND BLESSED THAT GOD HAS PLACED TRES IN MY LIFE WHEN HE DID.
MOVING TO DAYSTAR WAS TOUGH FOR TRES, HE HAD BEEN AT 29:11 FOR 2 YEARS
WITH TEENS THAT HE WAS SUPER CLOSE TO AND LOVED. IT WAS HARD TO
WATCH HIM BE UPSET ABOUT THE MOVE AND ME NOT BE ABLE TO FIX IT,
BUT IN THE END IT HAS TURNED OUT GREAT AND I'M REALLY EXCITED TO GO AND
START GETTING INVOLVED AT DAYSTAR. NOW ON TO THE 2ND THING THAT'S NEW.
I STARTED A NEW JOB ALMOST 2 WEEKS AGO...YES YOU READ RIGHT ANOTHER NEW JOB.
IT'S IN THE SAME BUSINESS I JUST WENT FROM A CREDIT UNION TO A BANK. IT
WAS A GREAT JOB AND I COULDN'T PASS IT UP.
IT WAS A LITTLE BIT OF A CHANGE THEY ARE A LOT MORE BUSY THAN
I WAS AT ECO BUT I LOVE IT SO FAR.
SUNDAY IS FATHERS DAY AND I AM REALLY EXCITED ABOUT MY POST FOR THAT.
I WILL HAVE TO BE ON MY OWN COMPUTER BEFORE I CAN DO THAT.

WHEN DRIVING TO WORK IN THE MORNINGS I NORMALLY DO NOT LISTEN TO 93.7 WHICH IS OUR CHRISTIAN MUSIC STATION. I KNOW THAT SOUNDS BAD BUT MOST CHRISTIAN MUSIC THAT THEY PLAY ON THAT STATION IS CORNY. SORRY IF THAT SOUNDS BAD BUT ITS THE TRUTH. WELL THIS MORNING FOR SOME REASON I LISTEN TO IT AND I NEEDED TO HEAR EVERYTHING THAT WAS SAID. A LADY CALLED IN AND WAS TELLING ABOUT HOW SHE HAD APPLIED FOR A JOB AND THEN THE LORD CLOSED THE DOOR TO THE ONE SHE WANTED. THEN SHE FOUND ANOTHER JOB THAT WAS CLOSER TO HOME AND THE PAY WAS THE SAME FROM HER OLD JOB. SHE SHARED THAT WHEN THE LORD CLOSES A DOOR HE OPENS ANOTHER ONE THAT IS BETTER THAN THE ONE HE CLOSED. I HAVE HEARD THIS ALL MY LIFE BUT I REALLY NEEDED TO HEAR IT TODAY. SHE ALSO SHARED SOME VERSES THAT I ALSO NEEDED TO HEAR.
Romans 8:28
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
