A day, a week, a month flies by...and I'm ready for changes.

I prepare myself for new things coming soon.

a. a rearranged living room.
b. the holiday season.
c. finals and new classes.
d. holiday job shifting.
e. love.
f. life.
g. habits.
h. friends.
i. the ways that i care for people.
j. internships.
k. ...a life outside of studying (this comes "post study hard")
l. a new month. yea. i get to write twelve instead of eleven now.

I live in waiting for God to provide. He has provided me with life thusfar that I would never change. People have come and gone each year. Friends have stayed, gone, and are in all different places in life now, but for me...I hold on. Lately (yesterday as a matter of fact) I have thought of how much I love God and how He is constantly in the center of my being. The heart. It pumps life into me each and every day. So, today I give freely, again, like a fresh start my life pumping organ to the God of the universe and throw off all that hinders/has been hindering me.

I pray this in His name. Amen.

#2 and camofied


Josh shot number 2 today. A ten point buck. I am so proud of him....I am not so sure if my proudness comes from the fact that he killed it or the expression he has when he talks about it. I know that as a girl with no hunting experience whatsoever...I am not compelling enough for him, but I am proud of him and hope that it makes his weekend even better.

On to more things...
nursing homes really aren't my thing. I've tried to get into them, but the smell of urine just makes me a little nauseous. I love the elderly, though, and the stories they tell. The things that they make up, the things that they want to give me (money for candy), and the fact that they don't hold anything back (gas, and crazy stories). Luckily tomorrow is my last day and then I will be on to more things. I love older people. It's just very hard to work in some of the environments that I've been in lately.

On to things about God. Woohoo. These things I wish I could talk about all the time. I overheard a pastor and college student at Panera this morning when I was studying for my experimental foods exam. They were talking about the bliss of talking about God- how reservation is ok, but it is such a delight to share your heart, your spirit and connect with others.

I did just this last night. I was a friend to someone that I know pretty well, but I want to know even more. Being real with people is how you show them God's love. Just love them.

That's all we're called to do. Love Him first, and He will help us love them.
