Random Revelation...

Now I am just really confused. At this point in my life, all I know is that God is calling me to Teen Challenge. But what does that mean exactly? Right now I'm being taught that I have A LOT to learn. We all make mistakes(sometimes daily or even multiple times a day). God will stretch you until you feel like you're about to break(but you won't). Sometimes people really really really annoy you because they point out your mistakes(but they're just here to help you). And lastly, that this is ministry. It's not a 9 to 5 desk job that you have to just make money(because we don't make that much); it's the chance to tell people how much God loves them! He loves them so much that He sent his one and only Son to die for us! We who are sinners! Who make mistakes! God, who is PERFECT, sent His perfect Son to die on a cross so that our failures and sins can be forgiven! Just try and wrap your mind around that. I know I can't. It makes my head spin! I've been dealing with feelings of inadequacy and failure. Those thoughts and feelings are not loving feelings! They are from the one who comes to steal, kill, and destroy! If you let those things get to you, Satan will feel like he is winning, when in reality, he is a LOSER! Because we are covered by the Blood of the Lamb! He wipes our slate clean every day and His mercies are new every morning! It's breathtaking to think that someone so perfect would do that for us! People who imperfect and sinful! My God is so beautiful and forgiving! Praise the Lord for everything that He teaches me every day!

A New Adventure

I've been here about a month, and since then I have made some changes in my life! I've been eating healthier and focusing on myself instead of everyone else. Yes, I still care about the students and I still focus on them, but I've been taking better care of myself. 

One of the ways I've seen myself improve is through exercise. It hasn't been easy, but I've been making myself do it! I just started this last week, but I've been getting up at 4:45 to workout at 5:00! I kinda have to because of my schedule, but I really like it! It's not hot out yet, it's quiet, and I just love it! I've been feeling better, sleeping better, eating better, and I just feel better in general! I've getting up and RUNNING! Something I never thought I could do or would do willingly! My life is changing and I can't wait to see what the rest of this year brings! :)

It's Been a Few Days...

Not much has been going on. I've been house sitting for a family at church here and haven't had internet access since Monday... I just back to the house today and most of the girls are in Pennsylvania for the U.S. Open! It'll (hopefully) be pretty quiet the next few days! The schedule is pretty much the same everyday even though our projects are different. There hasn't really been much to blog about!

Photography

Soo.... I won't be posting any pictures for awhile. My Photoshop subscription is $20/ month and right now I can't afford it. It's not a big deal, but I'm going to miss it. Just my rant for the night. :/
