Sorry everyone...I have been busy lately with school and work. I'm filling in for someone this week...
On top of that I'm in a bit of a spiritual rut. I'll post some other time...

Gaining Favor with God and Man
I'm just going to kind of introduce you to this book.
My teen leader, Jeff, gave all of us one. We get one when we get into the teen class. It has a lot of advice and things that are just mind gripping. It makes you think about things. Anyway, I'll be going through it every Friday and I'll be posting what I learned in a special chapter. I hope you all enjoy. The first one will be next week because of my lack of time today...
Sorry!!

Just an update
Sorry guys, it's been a few days...I've been really busy with work and trying to do school and trying to figure things out...
I'll just give an update and then later I'll post something I've been learning...
Wednesday I had a sore throat, so I didn't go to work. And then I worked Thursday and Friday. Yesterday was a long kind of day. I had cramps and my foot hurt REALLY bad because of the way I sit...[sidenote--Heather, you are at least not starting these problems until you're older...try starting them when your 16!!] But I went to Phil's computer shop so I could get Photoshop on my computer for school. And Jesse played a game on the computers. Then we went to Rebekah's house for Isaac's birthday party! [We were there early...]
The party was fun. All the guys, and myself, played football like games...I ACTUALLY caught the ball!!! ANDDDD it was DARK OUTSIDE!!! I was like so shocked I caught the ball that I almost forgot what I needed to do. And no one knew I had the ball, so I ran towards the goal...Only, I didn't know how far it really was until the goal, so I ended up stopping, like 2 feet away from where the goal was, but then we got a point anyway...It was so awesome!
Well, now that's all over, and its Sunday morning. I have done my devotions, and gotten ready for Church. Now I need to eat breakfast, brush my teeth and I'm ready to go. I'll hopefully post something else a little later...
Have a great day everyone!!

New Year
Well, happy new year everyone!! I have my resolutions for the year, a.k.a. goals. You can see them when you scroll down on the right hand side. I just finished my devotions for the day. I decided to do the devotional book that my mom got me for the year instead of the other one. And then I read my Bible in 90 days challenge. It took me a little over an hour and I stayed decently focused. I was surprised. In the devotional book I did it has a hymn and then a little bit about the hymn and a verse. Today was really good. It talked about how at the beginning of a new year we can be thankful that we have another whole year to be with God, whether we live the whole year or die, we will still be with God. It was just really good. The hymn talked about another year being a servant for God and the way it was laid out was soo great!
Well, I am sorry that this is late...But I was traveling and doing my devotions when I got home.
Today's Bible reading is Genesis 1:1-Genesis16:16 if you are doing the Bible challenge.
I'll do better tomorrow now that I'm home!

P.S. --I will post the Reader's Pick tomorrow because of lack of time. And I will put up the new poll as well.

Sorry/Happy
Hi everyone,
Sorry that I haven't posted in a few days. Saturday I went and took my driver's test...I passed!! After the test we went to my aunt and uncle's to visit and after 2 and a half long hours there my brother and I got dropped off at Shaffer's for the teen thing. Not many showed up and then we spent the night. Church was good this morning and the small play went well. Now we have this evening's part because it's the Christmast service. The pastor and his wife are leaving tomorrow to go visit people.
The sad thing is I still don't feel in the Christmas mood at all! Christmas is TUESDAY! And I'm just not ready for it. It was the same way last year because there isn't much snow...In any sense, that's not what it's all about. I'm almost done reading Luke becuase tomorrow is the last chapter! It's been a great book to read. Well, I may post later...

Praying
I want to apologize one last time. I'm sorry that I haven't been getting great things out. BUT, I finally got something to post and time to post. So I'm going to post it...Haha
It's on prayer. Praying is a vital part in a Christian life. God can do great things when we pray. But there are a few things I've been learning about prayer lately and I thought I'd share them with you. I have been cautious when I tell someone that I'll pray for them. I read an article in "Today's Christian Woman" about praying for one another. Of course it's GREAT to pray for other people. But don't say you'll pray for them unless you can commit to truly praying for them. I have started a prayer journal that I write all my prayer requests in. I have my committed prayers and ones I thought of that I need to pray for when I think about them.
We often feel so sorry for another person that it's just a 'second-nature' to say, I'll pray for you. It does help, but only if you REALLY are going to commit to praying for them. I have recently started commiting in my prayer time. I have a few friends who are going through a rough time in their life and have told them I would pray for them. Even if they think it's just going to be a 'when ever she remembers' thing, their wrong. If I have commited to praying for someone I truly do now. I used to always say "I'll pray for you", but did I really pray for them? No. Only occasionally would I remember and actually pray for them. I'm doing MUCH better now. And have read that article it really opened my eyes to what my prayer life should really consist of.
I hope you have been encouraged and will change your ways of praying if need be.

Quick Update
Hey guys!
Sooo soo sorry I didn't post yesterday!! I was home all morning doing things and then we went to the Cookie Exchange with my church. And came home with Lisa. I got up at 4:18AM THIS MORNING!!!!! Can you believe that?!?! I woke up thinking it was late and that Lisa had tried getting me up then I looked at the time on my laptop and it said 4:18!! I was like WOW! And I stayed up! I listened to yesterdays message from Revive Our Hearts and it talked about baby dedication and how you should dedicate your child(ren) to the Lord.
I did my devotion time after doing a few more things on the computer. Then the kids started getting up and we played. I had my german class and after lunch I went with Lisa to her chiropractor[sp?]/therapy appointment. It was neat. I will eventually have to do something similar because I know I have back problems already because I like to spoil children! Hehe. But I just can't do that whole chiropractor thing...It just -shiver-.
Well, I had a very profitable day and I got to talk to Lisa about a LOT of things. It's so amazing what randomly comes up. But it is always something that one or both of us need encouragement, or remindance. It's amazing how the Lord works!
Well, I best go. I'm going to listen to today's Revive Our Hearts and then go to bed.
Goodnight!

Hi
Hi everyone,
Sorry about yesterday's post. I've been busy this weekend...Haha!
Saturday I was at Heather's and I had a TREMENDOUS headache/migrane thing. It was terrible. Buuut, it slowly went away. When I got home from Heather's we went out to eat with some friends. Then we went back to their house and we didn't leave until 10:30!! Late for us.....Haha.
So today I had Church of course. I didn't really get to hear much of any message! I was secretary for Sunday School, and then after that was choir. And then we had to go downstairs for something or other about what we're doing for Christmas, but me and Heather were excused early and got to hear some of Mike's message because Pastor was away.
Well, I made some cards this afternoon, but for sake of certain people reading this...I am going to wait until after I get home to post them...Hehe!! I did that for a while this afternoon.
I've been learning a lot in my devotions, I'll probably post about them in a little bit...
I've been working a bit on my binder...I did a lot at my Aunt Heather's but I just need it printed now...Then I'll be working on my next section...When I get it done I will post pictures.
Well, I'm gonna go for a little bit...

Sorry
Hey guys, sorry about this...I got home at about 4:30 and had to get ready to leave soon. So I didn't have time to post like I wanted to, then we didn't get home until late and I just got a shower and I'm ready to hit the sack. This morning was HORRIBLE, as was almost all my day. I had a HUGE migrane! Uh, my head hurt soooo bad, I have never been in that much pain, needless to say I didn't get much sleep last night considering it started in the middle of the night and I hadn't gotten to bed until later anyway! So anyhow, I'll post tomorrow some time...
