What's been happenin

So I have a lot of things to talk about... First off, I feel like I keep desiring love and affection, more so from relationship/girlfriend side. And not to say that's wrong, I can just feel God tugging on my heart saying, "I am your satisfaction, I am sufficient for you and I am all that you need." That's not to say that I won't date ever or not marry, but for now I am going to rely on God for that and grow in that way.

Secondly, I am really proud of my brother. I have seen his faith grow so much in the past few months and seeing from what he's coming from makes it all the more encouraging. I really hope he gets accepted into Cedarville this spring and I think that would be so beneficial to him.

Thirdly and finally, I am so thankful for my friends. I know that sounds so typical and everyone says it a lot, but I truly mean it. I love my group of friends so much and you guys have been such an encouragement to me, especially in my faith but also just having a lot of fun. Plus I am really glad that it consists of boys and girls because it just adds so much more to the table. You guys are awesome.

So I guess I lied about the finally part... One thing I have been doing within probably the past month is I have been writing in a journal different bible verses that I find encouraging and flat out awesome. And it's not just writing their references down, but actually writing the verses. This has been so awesome looking back on it because it really encourages me and just helps me see how awesome God is. A trend I see developing with them is that I always write down the verses where God is saying, I will fight for you, I will be there with you and by your side. And I definitely feel like I love those verses the most because I have gone through situations, especially my dad's death, where I had to rely on God and He did fight for me and did keep my safe. God is so great though. He is so faithful and I really hope you see that in your walk with God because I have and it has been so incredible. In everything give God the glory in your life! Have a great day and may the Lord be with you in all that you do!
