Life!!!

Well i know its been a while since i last wrote on my blog. Can i use the excuse i have been busy and life has been crazy??? I worked both camps again this summer both senior and junior camp and had a blast doing it. The lord gave me a opportunity to bless a student there going on a mission trip and little did i know in 48 hours God rewarded me for being faithful. Kids camp was crazier then usual this year. We had 81 kids, the first night of camp i had a magrine headache the whole time kids were running around the cabin screaming and going wild. I must add also for some odd reason they decide to give the kids candy and coke before going to bed. So while the staff is tired the kids on running on full energy. The worst part was hitting that stupid deer during senior camp. Why can't they just stay in the woods where they belong, oh no i bet they stand on the side of the road and play suicde.

I feel like i'm on a roller coaster ride in life right now. There are some good moments but their have also been some twist and turns. But i must add the goods moments out weight the twist and turns. I have to honestly say i wouldn't trade the good moments for anything in the world and i thank God for those moments and many more to come. The past couple of weeks have been the best time in my life and very thankful for everything that has taken place. I want to also say thanks to all my mom's i have at church who have asked if i'm okay and that they are here for me if need them and that they are praying for me, it means alot to me if your reading this to all my mom's and i thank you for it and i want you to know i love you. Yes i am okay, just been tired alot lately with alot on the mind, but God is working them out for me.

Can i share something with you. In my life there are things i've been praying for alot lately and still havent't seen anything yet. I got to the point, "God it has to happen now, i can't wait any longer, now God now." I'm sure i'm not the only one who has been down that road. But you know i realized in trying to make it happen now, its not much fun and it makes life harder, but if i can just learn to wait upon the lord he knows when the best time will be for those things to happen and come to pass. So i will wait upon on the lord and i know when i do that i will see the desires of my heart come true, i will accomplish my goals i have set out for my life, i will have a life full of joy, happiness, and a abudent life. Just gotta trust him. Love everybody and if you are reading this, tell somebody today you love them.

Who Said Religion Isn't Fun?

A very gracious lady was mailing a package to her brother in another state. The box contained a Bible. When the clerk asked if anything inside was breakable, he replied, "Only the Ten Commandments!"

There are only two kinds of people in the world: those who wake up in the morining and say, Good morning Lord and those who wake up in the morning and say, "Good Lord, it's morning!"

A pastor announced from the pulpit one day, "I have some good news and i have some bad news. The good news is that we have enough money to pay for our new building, the bad news is, that money is still in your pockets!"

Many people want in the front of the line, the back seat in church, and the center of attention!

While driving in Pennsylvania, a family came upon a Amish man in a horse-drawn carriage. The owner of the rig obviously had a sense of humor because he had attached a hand-printed sign to the back of the carriage which read: "Energy efficient vehicle, runs on oats and grass, CAUTION: do not step in the exhaust!

I'm Back

It's been a while since i last posted in my blog, its hard to keep up with this thing. Well i finally finished one year of school, i'm not happy with my academic standing after my first year. Many people say it's because i haven't been in school in a while but that is no excuses for my sorry grades, i hold myself to a higher standard then that. My grades will come up and i will graduate at the top of my class. The first year of school has been exicting a little stressful also, i learned its hard to work a 30 hour week job and maintain 18 hours of school, its no easy task which is why i am going to 3 days a week now. I'm fixing to start summer classes which will put me a year early graduating that is the only reason for doing them. i'm really looking forward to the fall semester because i start taking classes that are geared towards my major.

Its almost summer time which means church camp is just right around the corner. i love church camp and working in them. Church camp is where my life was turned around and i always enjoy working in it to hopefully help turn another kids life around for God. i will again be working both senior and kids camp this year but with a little twist. I will be taking a online class and one in the classroom while i'm working in camp. I have a class in june from 8:00-9:30 so i will be leaving the campground early in the morining and coming back before lunch. It may sound like a hard task but i can do all things thru christ which strengthens me.

I'm very proud of myself for running 3 miles wednesday with Tom and Lacionda from my church. We went running down by the river and i have to say i felt great when i got done running. i thought i would be tired and out of breath but i didn't, i was pumped and wanted to do more. I think we are going to start doing this every wednesday which i am very exicted about. I am back in the gym again but with a different angle this time after taking a health fitness class this past semester. i work on muscles 3 days a week and cardiovascular the other 3 days so i dont hurt myself. Well i promise from now on i will do a better job on posting in my blog, so till next time remember this great quote i heard one time, "IF HARD WORK PAYS OFF, THEN EASY WORK IS WORTHLESS."

Laminin

i just finished watching a powerful video that talked about the protein Laminin, i challenge you to do a google search on this and look at a image, but please wait and read this first, i also have put a image at the bottom. That is a image from google, but there is a actual scienctific photo of Laminin taken from the human body with the same look to it.

Laminin basically keeps our body from falling apart, its the glue of the human body. Laminin holds our body together, it holds the skin and organs together. what's so amazing about Laminin is what it acutally looks like in our body.

the protein Laminin that holds our body together is in the shape of a cross, WOW very amazing, In my heart right now i'm so thankful for the awesome God we serve and that he hold us together. In Colossians 1:17 Paul writes and says, "He holds all creation together."

I realzie thru it all God has holds us together just like Laminin holds our body together, he has given us the protein to go the extra mile, to press on, to keep going, to keep fighting the good fight, and go the extra mile. So if your reading this and going thru a hard time, just remember, we have Laminin inside all of us. God right now i praise you and thank you with all my heart that you hold me together, that you are my Laminin thru difficult times in life. Thank you for the cross of Jesus Christ. "O great God be glorfied, our lives laid down, yours magnifies. Oh Great God be lifted high, there is none like you."

Ever Wonder Why???



Very powerful video, check it out!!!

He Walked Among Us

"When God chose to reveal himself, he did so (surprise of surprises) through a human body. The tongue that called forth the dead was a human one. The hand that touched the leper had dirt under its nails. The feet upon which the woman wept were calloused and dusty. And his tears…oh, don’t miss the tears…they came from a heart as broken as yours or mine ever has been. So, people came to him. My, how they came to him! They came at night; they touched him as he walked down the street; they followed him around the sea; they invited him into their homes and placed their children at his feet. Why? Because he refused to be a statue in a cathedral or a priest in an elevated pulpit. He chose instead to be Jesus."
