Life


Today at work I had a million conference calls it seemed like with a side of tweaks for each call. I am a team of one most of the time. I answer to one manager and that is it. I do a lot of work in a days time or so I think. At lunch today I called my grandma to check up on her and see how life is in Orlando. You know just when you think that your life is UGH.. you realize that it is not so bad after all. My grandma, my spiritual rock, my inspiration in life, the one who is so motivated when it comes to her family. She will do anything for anyone of us. God blesses her with the energy to keep it going. She has been helping my aunt out recently with so support financially and spiritually. Today though.. I saw a side of her that is such a fighter for the things that are good in life. I see that in my mom, sister, and in myself. Just when you think that life's stresses are on your shoulders there is always that one inspiration in your life that keeps you going.

Lord, thank you for my family. In a season of receiving I love that I have ability to give. You are so patient when I am not, and so kind when I am unfair. Thank you for the friendships that I have and the ones that continuously hold me accountable to you. You are the BIGGEST inspiration in my life and I praise you everyday for that. Thank you LORD for just being you.

My small group Friends


I am so thankful for my friend Emily. She always holds me accountable for the things that are going on in my life. I love that she is so giving and loving. She doesn't judge, even though Andy says that we should...LOL. I love that she can be so fly by the seat of her pants. I love that we have so many hobbies in common. Tomorrow we are going on a hiking trip!!! We are gonna go see the waterfalls at Amicolla Falls. I love that I moved to Georgia, and found a church that is so loving and so all about having a relationship with GOD through Jesus Christ. Tomorrow night we are doing this fund raiser called Operation Christmas Child with my Fusion group. It is a pretty cool fund raiser. I am one of the people on the "co-ordinating commity". I was stressing out a bit and EM was just like chill lady. Bethanne, has a reading voice that is fit for children. It is so soothing and animated at the same time. I wish that she read my bedtime stories to me when I was little. I love her swing, swing, scoop dance that she does out on the ball field. It's so cute. Cara, has a little wall on the outside with a facade that is tough, but inside she is just the sweetest thing. She has the most cutest puppies too. Tai, I think that you are my sister from another mother. We are so on the same wave length when it comes to SOOOOOO many things. Anyway, thank you LORD for the oppurtunity to meet and make such wonderful friends in a time of my life that I really needed them. Thank you for letting your grace flow through them to me. They have been such an inspiration and so true to life. Thank You ladies (Tai, Cara, Bethanne & EM) for being there whenever I have anything that I need to get off of my chest. Can't wait to see you all this evening for our girls night out dinner. GOD bless you all always and thanks for being my friends. Love you girls!!!

Fall is my favorite season.






Our lives are a lot like trees. There are seasons of our lives that change. We shed the persona on the outside, but we are always rooted deep within. The creation of such a magnificent thing can only come from one person. In my small group this week we discussed GOD and creation. Look at the tree in this picture, did this come from the big bang theory, no I don't think so. Things that are this beautiful could only come from one place, right? I believe that GOD is my creator. Just like each tree is different it's wounds, roots, and leaves are different so are we. I appreciate how much GOD loves me and how much each one is different yet the same. We all need some light, water, and TLC. These are the things that I have learned that only my LORD and Savior can give. Enjoy the picture ... look at the roots.. after all isn't that where it all starts???? Who is your root?? Who is giving you your light, water, and TLC??


I love the fact that these trees are only in PR, I love that Angela finally gets to go on her Mission trip, and I love that I am able to have enough time to dedicate to giving this holiday season. I want to have such a heart for the lord that when it's my time to stand in front of the gates he says daughter you have done well. I LOVE YOU JESUS!!!

Welcome

Hello All ~

Welcome to my Blog site.

Today I was faced with a past that I was oh to familiar with. I have a family member that is going through a bad point in her life. A point that I was at not so long ago. The decisions that are some of the most hardest to make in life. What decision do you make, what regrets will I have, and what does this effect have for my future? The choice was made and the pain that I felt was so horrible when the procedure was done. The after effect was never explained... the emotions, pain, and hurt. I thought that life was going to be better. The relationship that I was in went down the drain and the emotions were felt towards that person were so broken. Personally, I thank the LORD because it was only through HIM that I am able to stand here today and say that I have been forgiven. It took alot of time, praying, and healing to get to where I am today. The what if feeling is gone, but for my family member that is going throught the same pain.... I can only pray that I that she is given the oppurtunity to see how this will affect her life and see what GOD would have planned for the miracle that is growing inside her.

Lord, please help he through this emotional period of this ride. I know that she may not know you like she should, but you say that you are all knowing and all present. Please be present in her heart and help to know that you are always right there. Thank you yet again or all the blessings that you have given me. In you son's name I pray AMEN.

A girl that I know always finds these little analogies in life ... this one is about taking the time to stop and enjoy life and trying not to focus on the finish line.

I love the fall, I love Emily and the way she always keeps accountable, I love when my nephes come home and they are so excited to see me, I love the way my mom is so selfless, and I love that my aunt gets so giddy when I told her that we were coming for Christmas.

Thank You LORD for all my little blessings ~
