There has been a lot of things that I should be writing about daily that I’ve just been skipping over really.. and I don’t want to have a 10 page post about my step by step daily life and how it’s been.. So i’ll just start off here and pretend like nothing has happened in the past few weeks. deal? okay.
Today’s Mike’s message was really good. In fact, I think every week has been really good. When Mike speaks it brings out so much life, hope, and energy in me. It makes me realize how much of a life I DO have, how much hope i have in God, and how much energy I have when it comes to God and doing things for God. It keeps me on a “high” i should say and it’s just incredible what that man can speak about. Even though church started at 9am this morning. I’ve been anticipating it for a few days now.. just counting down until it’s sunday so I can a) have a day off and b) go to church and worship God. speaking of which…
(segway)
Worship is something that I really do crave, and not having it for the past few months was getting to bother me.. but then we started having brendan and angela acousticly play worship songs and its just been great. I really do love to just sing and stuff, but I’m terrible at it! It’s so funny to hear myself since because i desperetely want to be good at it, but yet. suck so terribly much at it. A lot of the times when i begin to sing i stop myself because I’m afraid of what others will think (and I know, if you are going to comment on this.. I KNOW I SHOULDNT CARE.. its for God right?) well I don’t know what’s wrong with me. Today I heard Dan singing and it was so cool to hear another guy sing besides brendan (or Mike.. like last week i heard him singing).. it was so amazing to see a guy step out in their faith and sing in front of people, even if they didn’t realize it.. they helped me a lot.
So, I’m sure you’re glad im wrapping this post up. I know it’s a long one.. But I hope to have more things posted daily for all you readers. (like the 2 of you.. lol)
Have a good day.
Dedication!

Fasting and Small Groups
7 Comments
I haven’t posted in awhile because frankly there hasn’t been really anything major going on.
But I started fasting on Sept 1st for the whole month of buying ‘extra’ things.. whether it comes to food (eliminated FAST FOOD or eating out) buying clothes, buying WHATEVER it is that i don’t “NEED” So far it’s extremely hard… going from school to work until 9pm is hard to not be tempted to stop by mcdonalds or dunkin donuts on the way to school for something. Pray I can be steadfast with that.
Small groups is another thing.
I always am hearing how INCREDIBLE the girls small groups are…. How life changing and inspiring their discussions are. How great they are with talking about God and growing in their relationship. I don’t want to go into much detail but I really need your prayers big time about small groups. I’m just so broken down and want to give up. I hate not feeling like im growing in my faith and with God, I hate how that feels. We really need an adult guy to step up and take over. I’m feeling wicked hurt. Please pray really hard.
A Stranglehold

Look at your life and see how you have filled it emptily with people. As a result they have a stranglehold on you. See how they control your behavior by their approval and disapproval. They hold the power to ease your lonliness with their company, to send your spirits soaring with their praise, to bring you down to the depths with their criticism and rejection. Take a look at yourself spending almost every waking moment of your day placating and pleasing people, whether they are living or dead. You live by their norms, conform to their standards, seek their company, desire their love, dread their ridicule, long for their applause, meekly submit to the guilt they lay upon you; you are terrified to go against the fashion in the way you dress or speak or act or even think. And observe how even when you control them you depend on them and are enslaved by them. People have become so much a part of your being that you cannot even imagine living a life that is unaffected or uncontolled by them.
Are you seeking the praises of others, or God?
God, let that ball roll.

So today was just an amazing day. So many things happened and God definitely showed me how to act and how to show others God. I pray for this to not stop and I pray that I can be a leading example of how to act and be in a relationship with God.
Oh GEEZE!!
