Snowbirds and Townies

Well, I have a few thoughts.

I have had 2 dear friends, and my aunt all mention that they have really been struggling with what it means to know that God LOVES you. Maybe I don't really understand that too... but I think if we did maybe we would act more confidently in that love, and think more confidently about ourselves. Maybe we wouldn't struggle with trusting him as much, because we would KNOW that he loves us. I don't really know a lot about those things yet... I haven't completely delved into some of those issues.

Also, this would end the 2nd time this year that Jess Samples has asked a guy on a pick-a-date by singing to him... only last time was just my friend (Laura) and me. This time, it was about 12 girls (3 rows) with dance moves and new lyrics to the song "Stronger" by kanye west. Thats right... we went around to all the guy dorms, and asked them one by one... singing to EACH INDIVIDUAL guy. The girls seemed like they had so much fun: which makes it all worth it: that was the point. I would never do these things just for the boys (regardless of how cool they may or may not be). In the end of the day... the girls I live with are great... and we gently encourage one another outside of our comfort zones. That made tonight so much fun.

anyway,
Prayer: some forgotten and powerful parts of the bible to read while studying prayer:
1. 1 Chronicles 6:18-21 and 1 Chronicles 7:11-22
2. 1 John 5:14-15
3. 1 John 3:19-24

not a lot... but these are not mentioned a lot and I tend to think of them as treasures.

I'm learning so much right now... so much about who I really am... and who I want to be... and the vast gap between the two...

It seemed like the bottom was all that I had until now
I'll give you my life, if you give me yours somehow.
