Praise God

So this past week I have noticed so there has been so many sirens going off where I live. Literally I have heard sirens go off twice in 1 day. Its been weird hearing/seeing all of these sirens in such a small town. Well I guess I didn't really think of it. Anyway my friend and I were driving out to Mc Donald's after a school event..its was kinda late like 11 pm almost 12. We were driving back to my house when we saw a car awkwardly stuck in the snow bank in the middle of the other lane.. so we decided to pull a U-turn. Before we got to help them out they got unstuck and went of there way. Yesterday after the waltz for our school me and my friends were coming home late again around 11 when we heard the sirens and lights go off once again. I was kinda mind blown that I have heard a siren everyday so i was thinking this has to mean something! This morning I woke up not feeling well so i went back to sleep and woke up at 1 and did some stuff..but still feeling sick so i went back to sleep. Than i woke up around 4 feeling a lil better so i decided to go on facebook. This where i figured out what the sirens meant. As soon as i got online i got a chat from my friend saying she was in a car accident. At first i didn't believe her...but than her mom sent me a picture of the car(her phone had been crushed by the accident) Her and her mom had been driving back from church and she was driving. They were going by janesville going about 65 or so. She admits that she wasn't really paying much attention when all of a sudden the car went of the road and flipped all the way across the middle margin and landed upside down on the opposite side of the road. Now normally those kind of accidents most people don't make it. God had been looking about for them. They  left the scene with only bumps and bruises. Honestly i finally understand how people say how god sends them messages. I'm thanking god. He works in such ways that i cant even understand! My god is so GREAT!!!

Domino effect

Wednesday nite i decided that i was going to go to one of my friends church. She really wanted me to go because the speaker has such passion in god. I thought u know she was exaggerating it, but she was right! Diana (the speaker) had so much passion for god. I have never seen someone so excited about god than her! It was so thrilling to listen to her speak. Normally it seams like my youth pastors go on forever ( I don't like them don't get me wrong) but Diana's seemed to last for like 10 mins! But really it was an hour and a half. Her lesson was so captivating! She was talking about how were all a domino in a Rube Goldberg machine. We each have a part in a bigger picture. How we need to have a relationship with god other wise we wont tip over to help the bigger picture. Pretty much if we don't share our knowledge about god than we wont have enough pieces to get to the bigger picture. She told us how the things we do well can help with our big picture even if it is being and artist or a singer. Diana was so amazing i wish i could listen to her speak every week...oh here's the video she showed us to start off.

Lies

So mime had started up as you all know...and I play a demon again this year. I was pumped to play bad last year. I guess being bad didn't have much effect on me last year cause I really didn't care about my faith. It was just me being apart of something that made me feel so great. Well this year its been a tad different. Ive been trying to work on my faith. I feel a bigger struggle playing a demon. I feel as if saint is more taunting me more than ever. I'm hoping it because he think that I'm growing closer to god? but idk? I feel like I'm weaker not just physically because Ive been working out and i feel as if I'm getter stronger but like mentally and spiritually I'm getting weaker. I think the biggest thing that has made me feel weaker is that one of my friends asked me to lie for her...and most people would think oh its just one little lie...well that what i thought. But than I saw how big the lie was and who all it hurt. The weird thing is that i actually agreed to the lie. I dint know why i did..usually i would have said no and hold her why..but i just went with it. Ik in the long run it will come back and get us both in trouble...i really wish i could take it back...so does this make me a bad person?

Redemption

                               
                                                          (Mime Cast 2009)
MIME has offically started!!! We had our first 2 practices this past weekend. I love the people that are in it. Even though we just started blocking some of us are already getting bruises. We havent even started acting which means when we do it, it will be above and beyound!!! Words can not explain how great this year will be! My favorite scences are fall of humanity and garden. The 2 songs for the scences are bring me back to life and take it all away....those two sences are the ones that have the biggest impact on my life. So if you guys have never seen a mime i totally recommend to go see one it will totally change your view on life and your spirital relationship. I feel like this years mime is gonna hit me hard...its funny how god works. A cast mate and me were talking about things going on in our life and how we really needed redemption..its so great how god works in those little but wierd ways.

New Start

Yea 2010 is finally over. As i reflect back on the year that has just passed i see lots of bad things...but than i think how good i have it compared to other kids just my age. I'm thankful of what Ive got/had. As i was listening to other people tell me their new years resolution about loosing weight, making money, or even passing classes. I came up with my new years resolution are
1. Not let the little things in life bring me down
2. When something bad happens just remember hey it could be worse and think how great my life is.
3. Become closer in my faith (build a stronger relationship with Jesus)
4. Mend things with my brothers (if even possible)
5. Figure out what i want to do when i graduate high school
6. Appreciate my parents more than i do.
7. Find a good mentor (so i don't keep all my emotions/problems to myself)
8. Get good rest on school nights
9. Enjoy Life :)
10. Take lots of picture with my Christmas present (thanks mom and dad)
