God makes all things good. God makes mistakes good in the end. (well He is capable of that) tonite was great at bible study and louie and joni's. everyone was full of thirst for knowledge and it was great. lately we have been reading alot without a lot of discussion but tonite we read about 3 paragraphs and we had soo many good conversations. makes me really happy. we talked about promises God has for us and how long we are supposed to wait and how to wait. mainly how to wait. God promised me a family. And im ready for one. (well not ready for the full family but ready to date that guy that i could have a family with someday) but it seems that guys pass through my life and i just havent found that guy that i see myself with. theres always something that doesnt fit. i've been seeing a guy lately...and hes sweet and nice, but not one that i will be with for my life. we havent talked in a few days and i have been a little down about it (ya know that typical what did i do...) but i realized tonite that i have Jesus. and that is the best guy to have. and "soon" (God's words..lol) i will have a guy that i can grow with in life and have a family with. im just soo happy tonite. life is good. I havent felt this good in a while. and louie, no im not taking that job, i would miss out on too much stuff that i love. God showed me tonite what i need to do. and the job doesnt fit.
also, im sooo excited to get baptised. i really cant wait. ive known Jesus for about a year and a half now, and its great. when i started going to hillside i didnt know who He was. i didnt know if He was God, or God's son, or what the deal with Jesus was. and know i know Him. :) i cant wait to be re-born in him. Jesus is the love of my life. although ive only had a relationship with Him for a little over a year now, im thankful He's been there since before i was born. right by my side. :) life is grand!
Thanks to all of you for your love. i couldnt ask for a better church family and im truely blessed to have each one of you!! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

untitled
man, life is good. and confusing. and unknown. and i dont know. so here goes another random, pointless post.
today i ditched work to go snowboarding. it was great!! went to northstar, and i kicked butt. (mind you this is my first season, so i did good, but still not like pro)i went in the terrain park with my friend and decided to give it a try. i did a box, yeah thats right. so it was small, like 2 ft long and like 7 inches off the ground....but i did it without crashing!! then were the jumps, well i ate it off of nearly everyone. then i decided on the second run through i wanted to do a 180 off a jump....so i attempted it, and slid face first down the other side of the jump...lol it was great! maybe next time ill make it.
next, is jobs, i love my job, but im thinking about moving up with another company. i answer phones now and do some tech support, but mainly i answer phones. this new job i would be a tech. soo theres a plus. down side is the new job is swing shift. plus side it is 4 10's. not sure if i get weekends off and stuff which would be a big issue. but then it is here in reno and that would save me hundreds on gas every month. so i dont know. how bad is swing shift guys?? i think i need to apply for it. btw. the shifts are either sun-wed or wed-sat. the hours are 430pm-3am. i would miss youth on wed, and maybe sunday nites bible study. i just dont know. any thoughts guys? (i dont know pay difference yet either)
on a side note, im getting a new couch tomorrow. free from a friends family member. yeah im stoked! its a nice one too. soo its great. i cleaned my house and im ready for it, now i need someone to help me move it into my house and it will be sweet!

"Did you think you were immune to this"
WOW!!! It's amazing when God really talks to you.
So tonite i went to the youth bible study at the church and btw petey was speaking and did FABULOUS!!!! yay petey, really you did great!! (all the kids loved you too, they told me so!!)
so, tonite there was a girl that was just having a bad day. (a bad week really) and i could tell. ive been there and saw how she was feeling so i decided to talk to her. She's going through a rough time and well, i could relate to her well. Ya know when you are going through a rough time and every little thing seems to go wrong, and the littlest thing can bring you to tears even if it is silly and trivial, this is her now. Her highlight: coming to church!
so the title of my blog is the first line to the song "love heals your heart" by third day. this song reminded me of the girl and what we were talking about. there are so many lyrics in the song that are just perfect for life. and its troubles. one line says, "everybody has a wall to climb". it really makes me think that problems we go through are like giant walls. at first we know they are big, but it is still laughable, like ur standing in front of it, playfully pretending to jump over it. then you realize you have to climb it. hum. it gets harder and harder until finaly you are in tears because you cant get over. and ur trapped. everything makes you cry now, even barely scrapping your finger on the wall. the hardest part is pulling yourself over, but when you finally reach the other side, it is like the wall was nothing. Eventually we all make it over the wall, but it is easier when there are two rather than one trying to get over. Here enters Jesus. The wall is still as bad, but with Jesus helping you over it makes it a little easier. (still hard though).
so thats my thoughts and the words God gave me for tonite. I will be praying for the girl and keep her in my prayers!!!!! Love her to death and hope that God shows his love to her too. like the name of the song i've been quoting, "Love Heals Your Heart". Please add her to your prayers as well!! God Bless!!!

randomness.....
well its 240 in the morning....and i cant sleep. yes im tired but my throat hurts, my head hurts and my eyes are alittle swollen. yeah i think im allergic to myself. so anyways....i figured i would write a little blog about my random thoughts at 240 in the morning. keep that in mind while reading. lol
i dont know how many of you watch supercross, but ricky carmichael is a racer and used illegal fuel and was caught so he was pentalized 25 points. good news to me because i just dont like him and he was in the lead, so yay. well no, last week they decided to give him his points back and fine him 20,000!!! ahhhh. now he is back in the lead. makes me a little sad. i just want someone else to beat him. hum.
i called in sick yesterday. i hate calling in sick, but i was completey unable to talk and i answer phones all day.....just wasnt gonna work. so i figured as long as i wasnt going to work i was sleeping. i have been overly tired lately though. im not a sleeper. if i get 6 or 7 hours a nite im good. really. but yesterday i couldnt stay awake for more than 4 hours without falling asleep again. so i pretty much slept all day yesterday.
im home sick. i miss my dad. me and the rest of my family got in a fight a few weeks ago, and well ive never been able to be mad at my dad for anything, me and my bro made up but my mom (actually stepmom) said something that really hurt. im wanting an appalogy but know i wont get it. ive already forgiven, but still want the recognition that what she said was wrong and mean. but i really just wanna go home and have homemade spagetti, help my dad in the garage, watch movies and pass out on the couch. i really miss my dad.
im hungry but dont know what i want to eat. pasta really sounds good now that im reminising about spagetti. well i actually dont think im hungry but i cant pass up the idea of food. yeah i want pasta, and bread with lots of butter on it. ummmm.
i dont know what im doing anymore, i feel lost. i had a plan coming out of highschool and stuck to it for 2 years, then over the last 7 months, i dont know what my plan is. im very spontanious, but i like to have life plans to stick to so i have a feeling of accomplishment. im just not feeling dedicated to anything.
and lastly for tonite, april 2nd. im gonna be baptized. never been before, and i just cant wait. i feel that God is really talking to me in this area and asking me to do it. i keep reading different passages on baptism and agree with every one. i feel like this is my time to be reborn again in christ.
well its 3 now, and im gonna try to get alittle sleep. love you all, xoxoxo

my bible study
my friend katie got me a bible study book for christmas and we decided that we want to do it together. problem: our schedules are opposite, and we really have no time together. so i decided to make it a blog, we can talk when each of us gets a chance and others can do it with us too!!
so lately it seems like me and katie are just trying to find ourselves. and it is a little hard. hopefully this bible study will help us and others in finding who they are and who God wants them to be.
Take a look at the blog, add to it, join in if ya want, i want this to be a nice discussion and the more views the better!! :)
