Waiting For Tomorrow

Hey All, So life has still been crazy since I last posted. My new job is pretty great and I'm very grateful, to God, for sending this opportunity my way! It's slightly "weird" being outside the kitchen for a change, but I enjoy mixing it up, learning new things, and getting this new avenue to show His love and light to my community! This enthusiasm about the new job doesn't mean that all my life has been amazing lately, and to be honest, parts of it have kind of sucked. Without getting into too many details, I'll just say my coworkers at camp are changing and despite my love of change, mostly, this change has made me bawl my eyes out several times, and I have a feeling it will continue to for awhile. That being said, I have had an overwhelming peace about it all this past week or so since I had a long talk with my Creator. It may sound crazy, but it was one of those conversations where I actually "heard" His voice whisper to my soul, and if I hadn...

Hey Everyone, So as I warned you all, I didn't post much at all this summer, except that once in the beginning of June, and since, my life has been a whirlwind. Summer camp, alone, can be crazy and drag in personal aspects of life, it can be pretty exhausting, but to say I love it would be an understatement. I pray your summer was filled with as much joy as mine was! There were many, many times where I felt like I couldn't go on, and God would just come and pick me up and give me such joy, peace, and strength, it could only be credited to Him alone! Just in the last eight hours, I found out I will be staying at camp a week longer, because my apartment won't be available until then, and that my second job wouldn't be taking me back on, even though I had been pretty much guaranteed a position starting next month. However, after the first few minutes of shock, God reminded me that it was all going to be okay, and it is! I have a job lined up, just need to call tomorrow and...

Hey All, In order to fully be able to change who you are and the world around you, you need to be willing to be vulnerable...completely and totally honest, with yourself, God and everyone you come in contact with. It is scary. It can be messy. It is HARD. BUT it is rewarding. It is healing. And it is worth all the pain, once it becomes a habit. Vulnerability needs to be seen as a strength, rather than a weakness.  I'm not one to wear makeup around the house, if I'm not going anywhere, or one who feels the need to put a full face of makeup on before I can go anywhere. However, I do rarely post pictures of myself, on social media without at least mascara on, or without a filter to at least help me look a little bit more "presentable" to the public. haha! Though, lately, I've become, more and more comfortable with little to no makeup on, and with going places without doing anything to my hair. I'm somewhat of a girly-girl, so I do like to put some effort int...

Hey All, First off, I just want to "warn" you guys, that I probably won't be blogging much after the next couple weeks, because my summer is about to start getting crazy! Plus, I like to avoid, "screens," and spend as much time outside as possible once the weather is nice and there are tons of people here! :) I will probably post a few times over the course of the summer, but my guess, is that it won't be regularly, again, until September. Anyways...when you hear the word, "worship," I bet you think of hymns or modern praise songs that we sing in church, correct? Well I'd like you to take a minute and try and see it in a different light too. Worship is a lifestyle. I've thought this way for awhile now, and my pastor recently touched on this subject, in one of his sermons , as well, so I figured I can't be wrong, right? In a recent post, I mentioned that I have a been a Christian since I was 4 years old and that I have a very persona...

Hello Beautiful People! Today is the day the Lord has made, so let us rejoice in His great goodness, shall we?! Here the weather is gorgeous out, and I'll probably go outside to do my Bible reading shortly, but first, I wanted to post something. We all know we won't live forever , and as I've said, a lot recently, it is important to love yourself and love life, buuuuut that said, there is, also, a time to weep and mourn, and it doesn't make you a bad person, if that is where you are at in life! Last post, I mentioned that, most of the time, our "problems," aren't really problems, and asked the question, "what really is a problem?" Granted, there are bad things in this world, and we will ALL face struggles and have times that we are just barely keeping our head above the water, but with God, we can all have hope that things will get better! There is a silver lining to EVERYTHING if you just take the time to look for it! I hope that, my recent inc...

Hey Everyone, I know that past blog posts have kind of gone over this, before, but how many of you actually, choose to live like you're dying? I don't know why, but I've been thinking about this concept a lot lately. I think it's partly to do with someone telling me that it's nice to see me happy all the time, again, the fact that I won't be getting to see my best friend much for the next three months, watching the show Chasing Life, etc. Someone I know, sent me a video yesterday about first world problems and although I don't suffer from this, enough to even say I suffer from it, it made me think. It made me think how sad it is that some people actually struggle with this, and what a miserable life they must live. Being hungry, your phone not fitting in your pocket, or being cold, are such trivial problems, it's ridiculous to even call them "problems." I mean, really, what are "problems," like seriously? For me, any struggle I face ...

Hi All, I'm not one of those people who make fan accounts for my favorite artists or TV shows or one who watches certain shows because the actors/actresses are gorgeous, but when it comes to Jesus, I'd definitely say I'm that girl. I'm not saying, there is anything wrong with doing those things, but in general, I don't have time, or care enough about celebrities, to do that. Sure, there are certain people, I keep up with more and "freak out," when they come out with new music, books, shows, etc, but that's not the biggest part of my life...not even close.  This topic came to mind this weekend, because Friday night I spent a number of hours watching Adam Lambert, interviews, stalking some of his fan accounts, and listening to the new music he had released; all of which I'm not ashamed of! haha! I'm a huuuge Glambert, as I believe, I've mentioned before, but really, I rarely do that, with him or anyone else. I'm one of those passionate ...
