God is incredible.

You know...sometimes I sit here, and wonder about life. How do we know what we are really called to do? How do we know if we are living the dream that God planned for us? There is so much in my life that I wanted to do differently, and when I look back now and see where I have been and where I am now it's amazing. TO be able to stand here and express the love to others I have for Christ, and yet be a new person aside from who I was when I was 18 is amazing. It's amazing to begin to understand how much love God has for me, and for all of us. I mean, for those of you who knew me in high school and my first semester of college, I wasn't the best person. I was selfish, shallow, rude, and so much more. I was such a person of this world. And then, I remeber who I've become and it's incredible. To know that God changed my life so much brings me to tears. It leaves me hope to know that if He can turn someone into something so much stronger, and so much more full of pure joy then He truly can do anything.

God is incredible. God is love. God is everything we could never imagine and more. God is the beginning and the end.

Encouraging Moment..

LAUGHTER is the key.



I happened to come by this movie looking for a picture of laughter.

Once a month I volunteer with my family to go to CityHouse to hang out and eat dinner with the kids there. CityHouse is an inbetween home (homeless shelter) for teens to get away from rough family situations and get the help they need.

Tonight was awesome. There was a young girl there that really opened my heart. She was full of laughter and you could see the joy in her eyes. For me, it was as if God was telling me that I didn't need to worry. Why do I get afraid or worried about little things when I have everything I need? I have the comfort of a home and a loving family, most of these children there may not. It was just inspiring to see these group of girls laughing (we were laughing so hard I couldn't stop crying!) and puttig their worries aside.

Why do we worry about the small things? Why is it that we take a lot of what we have for granted? Tonight really helped me to see that we are all truly blessed to be where we are. The young girl really helped me find a new love for life. I am so glad that CityHouse is a part of my life.

Many blessings.
