It is funny how you can be humbled even by a small child. The other day I was at my sister Kim's house and i had not been having a very good day. I was pretty angry and I was being rather complainatory. ( i just made that a word) i was also rather frustrated at God for causing certain things to happen, And not only that i though maybe He did not even have control over what was going on in the word where IIIIII lived. In other words I was being completely self absorbed.. It was at this point my niece was getting ready for her nap, and she was picking up all of her toys, when i heard her singing (on perfect key i might add) a song i had not thought of since perhaps childhood. " When I am afraid I will trust in Him, I will trust in Him, I will Trust in Him.. When I am afraid I will trust in Him..." i was immediatly humbled.. I wanted so much to change my former "HENIOUS" adittude and i was so proud of babo. That was the only part of the song she knew but she sang it over and over.. and she sang it in a way where she truly ment it. Her words spoke to my heart and convicted me so much. Trusting God is a very hard concept to learn.. And i suppose the process of learning it is rather lifelong..
Well I had a completly amazing weekend with so mych amazingness that happened. But no time for THAT! haha..
Ashley and juans wedding was so fun, my dearest sister Bell sang and she did soooooo amazing. it made me so happy to see her up there doing a service. She sang in a way that spoke of her dedication to our Lord, and she sang to the Lord, proclaiming his righteousness and his perfect plan of marriage. The song she sang was the LOVE passage from 1Corinthians. " Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered,does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.." The sermon made my heart swell with what the savior has done for each and every child of His. And for The love that He has for us. It made me so happy to be a daughter of the King. :)
So if anyone is reading this.. i would ask you all to pray for a few things.. that i will countinually trust in jesus. TRUST HIM WITH MY LIFE. Also, that i would get a job soon... because im going broke.. and i want new shoes. No i am kidding haha. ( but really)
Love Always

Ahhh. Today was the most fabulous day, all of my cousins came over and I was so happy to see them. There were many hugs and "i love you" s and we all had great fun. And of course the iced coffee i made helped everything. (Because it was pretty much amazing.) And i had a lovely time seeing emma ( i felt like i had not seen her in ages). we went to the sore to get ribbon and it was fabulous. :)
Well lately i have totally been struggling with discontentment. Sometimes i just really do not know what i am supposed to be doing. There are so many paths of things i could choose to be, and do in life. I'm trying to decide what to major in and where to work. But it is SOOO comforting to know God has already planned out my paths and He has already planned every thread of my life. It is very hard (with someone as stubborn as myself) to place myself under Gods plan. But i know that it is the right thing and i know Gods way is best. (Sanctification is a lifelong process!! ) :D
But i am enjoying summer so much! We went to the beach recently, my best friend Lenna acompanied us, and it was so fun! To see the power of God in something like the ocean. I love the sound and the salty smell and the breeze off the water, and marvel to think how jesus holds that massive amount of water in itts place. And in no way will it ever transgress its boundaries without the permission of our Father. And we went to lake Texoma the other day with the fasolinos. Haha what an experience. Ellen got burned when she and stephen went on their long "boat ride." Apparently they were "on a boat." And I caught fish and cooked some marvelous creations with Renee in the kitchen. Man our "Tato Tidbits" were simply amazing! tomorrow we have nichelle's wedding shower, and that should be very lush. Since, apparently, the whole entire church is decked out with intensified decorations. (the ladies at the church seriously go all out for these kind of things. I think it will take them most likely 6 hours to take it all down haha)
but since i dont really have anything all that interesting to write down, and the things i do wish i could shout from a rooftop in joy.. well lets just say i will just have to wait 2 or 3 years. Since i am not able to speak of them, nor could i express them if i tried at this point... but in that case you should stay tuned. but on that note, along with a few others, maybe my life is about to get seriously more interesting with all of these decisions and changes that will have to be made in the near future. ( something tells me that only made scene in my own head... but no matter! haha)
Always thinking
Love always
