The first time I ever heard this song, I was at a skating rink, freezing my tushy off. I had a pad with me, I always took one with me, and I  wrote a poem. I don't have that poem anymore....so what's the point? I couldn't believe what I heard. The sound. The voice. Everything. It was exactly as I had imagined my own career and sound. And I felt ( Read more... )

I had an interesting time of it last night. While feeling at my worst, I had to remind myself repeatedly that I trust God. Durning those times, it's so hard to wrap my mind around the concept of peace and acceptance- that it's ok that I don't feel it. The bad feeling didn't stay with me long, though. Just long enough for me to feel tested.  And how ( Read more... )

Today was a good day. A really good day. It's beautiful outside. Sunny and in the upper 50's. Spring is nearing and it will be good.

We went to Logan's with Clarice today- me and Eric. Eric had the Santa Fe Talapia and I had some nacho's. It was delicious. Then we dropped Eric off and Clarice and I went to Big Lots. She bought Jess some makeup, to ( Read more... )

Wow...where to start? AnaRose directed me to a sermon by Charles Stanley, when God is silent. I listened to it and a lot of what he said made an awful lot of sense.  He just reiterated things that I've already known; things that I've learned over the years. The issue with me is trust and God is not at my beck and call. He's teaching me that he's in ( Read more... )

It's Friday, finally. Eric is so glad and I think it's good too. We did our usual Friday outing. I picked him up from school, took him to a meat and three restaurant named Wendell's, and then I took him to eb games so that he could spend his earned 20 bucks.

I've been mulling things over, as usual. Right? Anyway, anarose reminded me that God doesn' ( Read more... )

I remember listening to this song on the way to bible study and how deeply I could relate to it. I think it's fitting, considering my last entries.  I remember being so confused about God and what he wanted  from me, and then when I thought I knew I was filled with joy and a sense of 'rightness.' And then as time passed, I started realizing things ( Read more... )

I wrote my pastor another letter. I think I'm gonna send this one...I think.

I'm falling behind again. What's new? I've got a pile of dishes and a huge grocery list for Wal-Mart. I'll have to take care of it tomorrow. I just don't feel like doing it today.

I'm not usually a fan of Pink, but I really really like this song. I just like the vibe and the melody. Not that I'm partyer. Alcohol does nothing for me. Valium. Now ( Read more... )

Lot's of preaching ahead- you might not want to read...

Well, the world is going to hell in a handbasket. We're watching a documentary based on our food and where it comes from. Our meat is riddled with ecoli, because of the way that we raise our animals, putting them in stalls, where they stand or lay in their own feces. And now they're taking ( Read more... )

Mike and I just discovered this artist. Robert Francis. I really love this song. It's very inspiring. I took Eric to Walgreens today and picked up a few things and I also took him to Wendy's. It's expensive for fast food! I have been doing so so on my diet. Haven't been losing any weight; not gaining either. I've just wanted donuts and pizza. lol. ( Read more... )
