Despite the circumstances.

This is going to be the best Christmas ever. : )

I'm not afraid of anything because I know of the Lord's faithfulness. He's brought me through so much and will bring me through so much more. My life ahead of me is a blank book as far as I know. It always has been. I now know not to think that I know anything in the future. One thing that I do know is that God will be with me and never stop loving me and he will give me the best he has if I let him. And boy, do I want to let him. He will never ever let me down. Its just me and Him now. I'm looking forward to everything he's going to do in my life. I'm looking forward to growing in him. I thank him everyday for surrounding me with friends and family who love me (Anna!). I thank him for the comfort and peace he's given me. I also ask for forgivness for ever doubting him and thinking that he couldnt make things as great as he has. I'm going to try my very best to keep in my mind that he has a plan for me and that he will take care of everything. The last thing I want to do is try and take things into my own hands. I had been praying and praying for more of him and now I have it, without any distractions or reservations. The one thing I do struggle with though is the thoughts that satan puts into my head. He tries to get me to think that everything isn't going to be okay. He tries to make me think that God doesn't have everything under control. He tries to make me feel helpless, depressed, anxious, lonely. Most of all he tries to make me think that my plans were better than God's plans. He's such a deceiving little worm and is SOOOO jealous that I get to live eternally in heaven with Jesus while he is "...thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever." Revelation 20:10

So anyways, he's bummed and I'm not. This past week has been amazing. I'm so excited to go see Phil Wickham Friday night with Anna! I'm excited for church this Sunday! I'm also extremely excited for the Mexico Missions Trip! I know its going to be a life changing experience for me. I've been thinking about maybe going on missions trips after I graduate. Its just an idea. I dont know, I'll have to see what the Lord wants. Well, this is my life as of now.

I will end this post with a profound quote.

"I don't like the way those guys just looked at you. HEY! Can't you see this woman is a nun?"

Hug hug, kiss kiss, hug hug, big kiss, little hug, kiss kiss, little kiss.
