| Sheesh I knew it had been a while since I'd updated... but 5 months?! Whew. Well I'm fasting Facebook... and Chris is wanting to get xanga going again  ... so this seems logical. Today was completely different than I expected... started out not so hot. Showed up for ensemble practice, but only one other girl came. Which wouldn't be nearly as frustrating if it weren't the first day of PACC (Prayer at Center Court). I really wanted to be there, but hadn't talked to any of the other girls, and didn't want to just not show. Yarrrgh. Plus I was tired since we got back from IL at 10 last night... drove there Tues. night then back last night, for my great-grandma's funeral. It was a whirlwind trip, and I'm really ready to just stop driving now, since we just got back from driving to/from Colorado for skiing a week and a half ago. But the funeral was nice... sad but really spiritual. She was 95, and lived a really full, great life... she outlived 2 husbands and several kids/grandkids/great-grandkid. I got to see a lot of family that I rarely see, or had even seen/met within the last 10 years... plus some of my first cousins, which was nice. I got to sleep in.  I had planned on yesterday/this week being really stressful for some time now... but things all got moved around so it works out quite well. I'm still going to have to do a lot of school stuff this weekend ( ), but it's better than staying up til 1AM getting stuff done. God is a good God, it's true! So anyway... wasn't expecting today to be a fabulous day or anything (though it was a B-day, thank the Lord)... but had some unexpected conversations. Talking in YAL w/ Megan, Jared, and Stefanie... how something's going on in our school. Numerous kids have been practically revived... this PACC has started up... I dunno but my heart's still pumping hard from that conversation at 8:00 this morning. All this energy I guess I forgot was there is just coming out of me and I'm really excited. I can't help but find myself pouring out my heart to God, begging Him to move in and through us at school and to use me however He can to spread His love. It's pretty awesome, so if you could, say a quick prayer for our school... if you go here, get PUMPED! If all the Christians start uniting, it's incredible what we could do... especially with a principal supporting us 100%.  Oh God is good... it just blows my mind. |
Lo siento, mis amigos.
