Happy Sunday

Life is crazy. It seems that anytime you try to make plans, the Lord just laughs at you and has something different in mind. I was talking to a friend at church today and she told me to just live in the now and so that is what I am going to do. Whenever I try to look too far in the future it stresses me out and makes me nervous anyway, so I am not going to do it. I am going to live in TODAY and focus on what is happening now. Maybe I am on a spiritual high right now cause I just got home from church a couple hours ago, but I LOVE the gospel so much! I kind of wish everyday was Sunday cause I always feel so great on Sundays. I have also learned that our prayers are ALWAYS answered. Gosh, anytime I feel alone or abandoned the Lord is always there to remind me that He really is there and then I just feel stupid for feeling that way.
But life is great! I had a great time this weekend in Palisades with my awesome friends playing in the snow, going sledding and snowmobiling, eating lots of chocolate and junk food, and laughing A LOT! But I am really happy. Yes it's hard some days and we have our challenges, but I wouldn't trade them for anything in the world. It helps me appreciate the good times and encourages me to be better and keep trying!

2010

Well its 2010 and all I gotta say about that is...BRING IT ON! :) I am seriously very excited about all the things I have ahead of me this year. It's gonna be the best one yet! Things have ended with a certain someone, and yes I am sad. It's hard going from spending all your time with someone, telling them everything, making plans that revolve all around them, to being absolutely alone again. But, it's also good cause it apparently wasn't meant to be, I wouldn't want to try to make something happen that wasn't right. I learned many things, grew in many ways, and am working on finding myself again and focusing on those things that make me ME! :)
But as soon as one door closes another opens and the Lord is VERY aware of me and what is gonna make me happy. Which is why He is "encouraging" me to relocate (if encouraging is the right word. :) He won't let it go!). So probably in the next 4 months I will be somewhere a lot warmer. I will get a chance to start over, be near my bestest friend, and hopefully get me back in school so I can make something of myself! It seemed like the "theme" of church today was how the Lord knows each one of us. He knows our name, our situation, our weaknesses, what will make us happy. Which was perfect for me and reminded me that we are NEVER alone and I am not the one in control. HAPPY SUNDAY! :)
