Happy Thanksgiving week

I hope everyone had an awesome Thanksgiving with the ones you love :)

A few things I'm thankful for:
*I'm soo extremely thankful for being raised in the church and for my Pastor and his wife!!!! I don't know what would have happened to me if I hadn't come to be under my Pastor. I'm so grateful!!! I've been placed under a praying man of God who loves his church. I know he prays for me and keeps me safe.
*I'm thankful for my youth leaders Bro Jeffrey Rowell and Bro Chris Brill! They are some great leaders who have a burden for our youth group. They are there to guide us and correct us if needed. They also know how to have fun!! I'm thankful I don't have boring youth pastors!!!!!!! ;)
*Thankful for my family and best friends :) Daddy and Mom, Papaw and Mamaw, my uncles and aunts, my cousins as all my 2nd cousins etc etc ;) lol if I named all the family I would take too long. I'm thankful for my best friends that I've made all over the country. My best friend Sean who can be a complete goofball when I need to laugh lol :) my favorite cousin Brookie <3 who is such a brat ;) but I love her so much.

There is so much to be THANKFUL for!!!!!!

I had the opportunity on Thanksgiving night to put my little cousin Morgan to bed. I told her that before we go to bed tonight let's thank Jesus for everything. We had a whole list going. Her little toys, her friend Chloe, her brother and sisters, mommy and daddy, cousins Meagan;) lol, for breathing... And then I prayed for her to sleep peacefully that night.

Whenever you have an opportunity like this to be with your younger siblings or family members, (to the parents) your kids, don't pass it up. It felt good I was able to do that with her.

I'm thankful this year for everything God has given me.

Bible Quizzer

Umm.... I had no idea what I was getting myself into lol! This is my first year of Bible Quizzing and man! I love it!!!!! :D I can't wait to go to the competitions!! :D We have to learn over 400 verses but as Bro. Vick & Brendan said "Don't look at the numbers." It's easier when you don't look at numbers and you just memorize and go over them everyday!!! I'm so excited!!! It has motivated me to get done with schoolwork lol. I hope we have a good (NOOO, a GREAT!) team so we can go to more competitions. :) Fun & traveling! Which teams do you know that are awesome Bible Quizzers?? Do you have any tips for a first time BQ??? :)

Coincidence? I think not.

There came a time in my life where I needed to get out from being under the spotlight...  To get away for awhile.  To be alone. To deal with things in my life. And now I'm here :) writing...  I  am currently attending North-West College to become a Pharmacy Technician.  (I also work here during the day) A fellow pharmacy student was talking to me before class... She poured her heart out to me. She was crying-tears rolling down her cheeks. She was hurting. She was contemplating taking drugs again. She was losing her faith in God. And there I was.. A child of God Filled with the Holy Ghost Having peace in my life  Knowing that God hears me We cried together. The people that surround us need to hear encouragement and love from God's people. They need the opportunity to walk into a church that preaches truth, that has life! They need to see God through you!  Don't be afraid to cry with them. God put you with them at that moment... God knew they needed you ...

A Special Touch From Heaven

For many many months, I wasn't feeling well. It was like I had something stuck inside of me that pushed everything about me (bubbly personality, a little ball of joy, Miss Sunshine, full of energy) into a little ball and filled the rest of the space with emptiness [cold]. It has definitely not been the best part of my life, for sure. It's one of those trials where you just want to go back to the year before lol. I'm telling you, I was the total opposite of who I really am. Oh my, talk about craziness. I started to get really sad, kept to myself a lot, and ZERO energy.. Ahhhh it was all bad!! If you think that I am wallowing around in this pile of mud (not wanting to get out), think again! I've been pushing myself harder to get back to my old self. I've been getting into the Word, praying, keeping in contact with friends/etc. For 3 weeks (up until a week ago), I slept almost ALL day. Not kidding. I told you, NO ENERGY. I didn't want to do anything. No piano, no...
