things to do

I have so many things to do today, but here I sit in the quiet of my room. M and K have gone to work. D is out and about somewhere. I really just want to go back to bed, but I really need to get going. So I'm stuck in this place where I'm not quite ready to start this day and so here I sit, trying to get ready to start the day.

I have a pond in my back yard. It wasn't there yesterday morning, but there it is today complete with an island that has a weeping willow tree on it. My dad is pretty amazing cause he built that pond yesterday.

Yesterday I applied for a job in the morning, and then I went and spent most of the day with Jesus at IHOP (not the pancake place, but the International House of Prayer). I also got to see K and H which was like balm for my soul. At one point during the day I got a picture text of the crew and almost started crying.

It was such an awesome quiet time, though. I already want to go back. I also went to the prophecy room, and God told me some amazing things, and I have a lot to talk with Him about.

Today, I need to go apply for some more jobs even though the one I already applied for is the one I really want. I won't know for a couple of days if that is the one God wants me to have.

God has really been burdening my heart for unity in the church, in the body of Christ. John 17:20-23 There is one body, one church, and yet we split it up into fractions and splinters. It's no wonder that the church has problems. We are called to be one that the world might know that God has sent us. Lord, make your church into one body, one church. Bring healing to the church and give us unity.

I get to see K again on Thursday when she comes up for our road trip to MT. :) Good times!!

Well, I have job searching awaiting me...peace!

Called Beauty

I'm listening to Pandora right now, and the song that is on is Love Song . I'm not sure what exactly that has to do with my life at the moment, but thought I would share it with you all. In fact, I feel rather at a loss as to what I should say as I sit here eating sweet potatoes. I had a lovely run with my roommate, B, today. We both decided that it is much more fun to run with someone than to run outside alone...not to mention smarter as our neighborhood isn't the greatest. Running feels so awesome now. I am getting new running shoes tomorrow, and I'm really excited about them. The lady at the store let me go out on the sidewalk and run back and forth to test them out when I went today to look, and they just felt really amazing. Switching Subjects... I have never really had many guy friends. I'm not sure why. I think part of it had to do with the fact that for a while I was really scared of men in general. Then I went through a men disliking period (I refuse to say

learning to savor

I was asked today if money wasn't an object, if I didn't have to work, if I could do anything in the world, live anywhere in the world, what would I do? I wanted to give her a thoughtful answer, a truthful answer, so I thought about it. If I could do anything what would I do? My heart leapt within me at the thought. It's one of those rare opportunities where you just allow yourself to dream for a minute of a perfect world. What would that world look like? I knew within myself what I would do, and I did my best to express it to this lady. I would have a house on the beach. It would be a safe place, a resting place, a refuge. It would be open to anyone who wanted to come. I would have tea every afternoon with my friends. I would cook and bake. I would work in my garden in the backyard. I would spend hours in communion with my Beloved. I would take walks on the beach, watching the sunset. I would sit on my front porch and soak up the day and night. I would savor life, and I wo

I say Hi!

I have discovered the secret to avoiding awkward situations... things are only awkward if you make them awkward. Think about it. We take our cues from the people around us. If someone else is trying to make you feel awkward, and you just ignore it and go on with life...then they will stop. I was in a situation tonight that could have been awkward, if I had made it that way, but I choose not to. As a result I ended up having a great conversation and was very encouraged and uplifted from it. Anyway...this is going to be short because it has been a very long day and I have a lot of homework to do tomorrow...so tomorrow is going to be a very long day. We finally covered Philippians 3 in Bible Study tonight...so excited to move on. Also, I am greatly enjoying playing chess with a good friend...we are having about a weekly match up. Good times!! I'm getting better, so we'll see if I'm able to eventually pull off a win. Funny how God grants little desires of our hearts. I always k
