Thanks

One of my boyfriends friends are getting divorced... They are so young it makes me sad for them.   This weekend I have just been having thoughts about how sad the world really is, and how no one stays married, the few that do are rarely happy.  A kid at IU committed suicide this past week, and wasnt found for ten days... How sad is that that no one wondered where he was for 10 days and the only reason anyone found him was because he started to smell. 
But then I walk in the mall and see the cutest little baby or little girl.  I go to help with the Sunday school kids and even the littlest kids have the most brilliant answers to difficult questions.  This is why i want to teach.  There are so many sad things in the world, and most of the kids are innocent to all of them.  They are so pure, and loving.  I get to make a difference in hope that they grow up to fall in love and have all there little dreams come true.

It also makes me think about how unbelievably lucky I am to have so many people that love me. Every night my mom texts me i love you and goodnight. My boyfriend is with me all the time making me smile.  My friends are always calling me or texting me.  My family, and friends is always there for me. Thank you god for all that I have, and all that I am.

Friday

Its Friday, and I'm listening to  country music avoiding homework!  Judge me as you will, but it makes me think of summer...which is coming soon!
I saw Invictus last night at the IMU for free. :) good old IU. It was a really good movie I thought, I was inspired after. I kind of want to read a biography on Nelson Mandela now. I got a really cute dress today from American Eagle, I have been looking for a summer dress forever.  Now the good weather needs to stay so that I can wear it. Short but sweet today! Adios





Forgiveness liberates the soul. It
removes fear. That is why it is such a powerful weapon-Invictus

Give me strength

Vacation was amazing. The bahamas were beautiful, and spending it with Matt was awesome. I wish we never would have come back tho. The harsh slap of reality came quickly, and painfully. It brought questions and heartache. I am slowly moving on, but my stomach feel sick everytime its said. I want to scream, everyday it comes to mind.... The truth of people, and the world...

O Lord,
In this time of need, strengthen me. You are my strength and my shield; You are my refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. I know, Father, that Your eyes go to and fro throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts long for You. The body grows weary, but my hope is in You to renew my strength.
I do not fear, for You are with me.
I am not dismayed or overwhelmed, for You are my God. I know You will strengthen me and help me; that You will uphold me with Your righteous hand. Even as the shadows of illness cover me, I feel the comfort of Your strength, Or Lord.
Amen.















School is coming to an end and I can't wait for summer... I am ready to be home. School is exhausting and becoming a little annoying. I am loving the nice weather. :) It makes the days so much easier in comparision to the ugly winter :(.
