Fun/Busy Week

Well, lets see with dad in school most of the kids don't even get to see him 2 days a week!!! I get to stay up long enough to see him. Today is one of those days he is in school. I know God wants him in school, but sometimes I don't like it. I guess I am just being selfish! Oh well, we can't have everything!!!

I have been loving Dance! Jelly Bean and I have lots of fun and it gives us a good workout too! I like ballet better, because the hip-hop is so hard.:) I think we are starting a new dance this week (tomorrow). It is supposed to be Jazz (I think!)

I also have the opportunity to start track. So please pray about that choice. I have been going to the "Y" more and really liking it, just because I feel good after wards.:) I still like to play outside when it is warm enough! Which isn't very often these days, but that is fine. We keep busy anyway.

Church has been really good recently. It has been about Jesus and different people. I like hearing the truths about the Bible told in a factual,easy to understand way. "It is the truth because the Bible says" so kinda way! It is easiest to understand!:)Youth Group is been good too. I Like the book "Becoming a Women of Excellence",the book we have been going through. It talks about what excellence is in today's world. Missionary and I have been going through "How to Be a Jesus Freak" Which is also a really good book!

School is OK. I guess as well as can be expected. I really enjoy the Abeka Academy. Which is History and English. I love science too. We have been studding some exciting stuff. DNA!!! I love it!

Well besides all of this busy lifestyle I like to read,sleep, crafts, scrapbook, and hangout with friends, I also spend to much time on the computer. I love to play with my sibs and friends. Yesterday, we played hide and Seek as a family yesterday. Which was really fun!!!

That is what is new in my life.

Coming Home!

Consuming Fire lyrics

Artist - Tim Hughens

Verse 1:
There must be more than this
oh breath of God come breath within
There must be more than this
Spirit of God we wait for you
Lord let your glory fall
Lord let your glory fall
Chorus:
Consuming Fire
Fan into flame
a passion for your name
Spirit of God
fall in this place
Lord have your way
Lord have your way
with us

Verse 2:
Come like a rushing wind
Fill us with power from on high
Now set the captives free
leave us abandoned to your praise
Lord let your glory fall
Lord let your glory fall



FROM THE INSIDE OUT Lyrics - [ Joel Houston)

A thousand times I’ve failed, still Your mercy remains
And should I stumble again, still I’m caught in Your grace
Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame [Intro]
Your will above all else, my purpose remains
The art of losing myself, in bringing You praise
Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame
In my heart, in my soul, Lord I give You control
Consume me from the inside out, Lord
Let justice and praise, become my embrace
To love You from the inside out
Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame
And the cry of my heart, is to bring You praise
From the inside out, Lord my soul cries out
From the inside out, Lord my soul cries out, Lord





These are 2 of my favorite songs that we sing at church. WE song them tonight after the sermon and they meant a lot to me this week because I recommitted my life to Christ tonight.I have been straying for a while and knew it, so tonight I made the decision and it felt really good.

Tonight the sermon was on"Jesus and the Freak"Which was John the Baptist. It was on Luke7:18-28. The last verse is my favorite it says "For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he." I love that verse.Another point our pastor made was that John was a "good man",but he still was put in a place he didn't want to be.Just an interesting thing to think about.

I stole this title!


We had a good last couple days. Yesterday, we had P.O.I.N.T. and missionary and I went out Bible Study. We had a good discussion about reaching out to other's in need and loving those who are hard to love. Today I had a rough day of school and we got all the
grading done.(which was good):) Last Friday we had a great family night. We went bowling and I got a strike! (yeah!) We also went out for skyline.
