Beautiful God

Spring has sprung here in beautiful Tennessee, and things couldn't be more lovely. As I look to my left, I see the beautiful sun, shining on the beautiful campus of the college I attend, and students hanging out, most likely deterring from homework and the like.

Lately, God has been showing me how beautiful He is. Not that I didn't already know, it is just becoming more real to me. Now, when I look out at nature, I don't just see trees, grass, and animals. I see God. He is in everything. He made it beautiful.

Easter is right around the corner, and I am so excited.

Uneasy Feeling

I often times wonder: "Where in the world is God leading me?"

Somedays, I wish that things in my future were clearer, instead of the fuzz that I see right now.

Then I think, "God's got this, so why am I fretting?" No clue, but I do, on a daily basis.

I'm not feeling positive right now, especially because I have yet to know what I will be doing after graduation in July. It's hard because my dad is one of those types that is all the time saying, "You have to have a job right then," or, "I'm afraid you won't get one." All I ever say back to him is, "I got this, do not worry about me. I know for sure that I will not get a job right off the bat."

I hate this uneasy, unsure feeling. Why won't it go away?

Spring Break

This has been one of the dullest spring breaks of my LIFE!! And that's a long time, because, so far, I have been in school my ENTIRE life, since the age of five. I have done homework just about every single day.

However, today, it is a bright 72 degrees outside, which is absolutely lovely.

This morning, I shaved my dog. Not a very fun task

This, my friends is PeeWee, my baby. His hair is shorter now, but I had to show him to you, isn't he precious!!!

He really did not like being shaved. Ha, who does?

Summer Divine

My Road by Nina Bankston

Sweet summer!! I am so ready for summer to be here! Normally I love cold weather, but this year, I am ready for sticky, hot summer days where just by stepping outside, you sweat. Call me crazy if you like, but I will not care.

Riding with the windows, wind in my hair, blasting my music is the only way it should be, forever!

So, SUMMER, I am begging you, Please, please, please hurry!

Forward

As you know, I spent my weekend with the youth group at my church at Winterfest.
The line-up was simply amazing:
Friday night: Leeland for worship and Jentzen Franklin speaking; Ricardo Sanchez closing worship
Saturday night: CHRIS TOMLIN for worship and Reinhart Bunkey speaking
Sunday morning: Reggie Dabbs speaking and Israel and New Breed leading worship.

God was all in that arena, that is for sure!! So many lives were touched, people were saved or rededicated to the Lord. It was an awesome experience.

I am moving Forward with my life, which seemed to be the general theme this weekend.

Jumping Jelly Beans

I am so incredibly excited right now!!! Next week is Spring Break, but not only that, I get to start it off by going to WinterFest 2010 this weekend, with the youth group at my church!!

All day I have felt like jumping up and down!! I am so excited because one of my favorite artists is going to be ther, a.k.a. Chris Tomlin!! Oh I love his music!! My favorite speaker will also be there, a.k.a. Jentzen Franklin.

This will be my oldest niece, Sade, first time getting to go to WinterFest, and I'm not sure she knows what is in store for her! I know for a fact that God is going to be all over that stadium. We have been praying about this weekend for months, and I know God has something special in store for ever single one of us going.

Fact: tomorrow, I am going to Farm House, a local country restaurant where I live. It is the hot spot for an after chapel meal, mainly because college students get a free sweet tea, which is a big thing, especially if youare from the South, like myself.

I will update you on how WinterFest went as soon as I get back!!

Sunshine, That Is Not In a Bag...

Finally winter weather has let up on the Tn valley for a little bit. it snowed on Tuesday, for like the fifth or sixth time!!! As we know, I dislike the snow. Right now, I would rather it be a smoldering 95 degrees outside.

Today though, I am happy and content with the sunny 46 degrees, even though it feels warmer outside. Put it this way, I'm not wearing a jacket,and that is okay with me!!!

This mornign we had Travis Cottrell as our worship leader. It was so fantastic!

I think it is safe to say that this weekend is going to be pretty much fantastic. Alice in Wonderland comes out tomorrow night, and I am going to see it in 3D with my sister and her family. I am so completely stoked!!!! Number one, Johnny Depp is in it, he is fantastice, and number two, it is going to be so creepy!!! I love creepy movies!! They are the best.
