| Always with meHey everyone! So it has been forever since I last posted but God just laid something on my heart that struck me so much I decided to write about it. There is this one song by Mark Schultz called "He Will Carry Me". It is a fairly old song but I love it. I've been having one of those really off days, or maybe an off week. Just where you feel like things aren't quite how they should be or how you wanted them to be..things like that. So I just got off the phone with my best friend who is away at college and I just miss her so much. And this is where one part of this song hit me out of nowhere.
And even though I feel so lonely
Like I have never been before
You never said it would be easy
But You said You'd see me through the storm
I just had this immense feeling of warmth and peace come to me. God is going to see me through. He always has and I have no reason to believe He won't. I have no one better to put my trust in than God. And even though people constantly disappoint me, God never said it would be easy. He only said He would always be with me. And that is more than enough.
Here is the youtube website for the song if you want to hear the rest. I hope it might encourage you as much as it has me :)

P.S. - Oh and this is so a God thing, the verse of they day on my page is exactly what I am posting about and I didn't even know it when I wrote this. Here's the verse. (I have chills 0_o )
Isaiah 46:4
Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you.

| Everything ImpossibleThe other day someone very important to me told me that they aren't sure I am "going to turn out alright" because I don't have my career and college choices made yet. I have a couple of ideas I just have to choose one. But it really hurt me because my dad was always so proud of me, I miss him so much. I realize, though, that this person is worried that I will turn out the same way they have. The career they chose didn't work out so well and everything, so I understand they are worried......but its still disappointing that they don't believe in me and in God's provision that He is going to build my future and that I am going to work hard enough to accomplish good things. Never-the-less God lead me to this song and I believe it! :)
I was taught to be practical in everything I do
Holding on to what is tangible, and then came You
That's when I found myself so far away, from everything I knew
I took a leap of faith
Even though You're difficult for me to explain
I know I'll never be the same
You're everything I cannot see
You're everything I cannot say
I know it all seems so illogical
But that's okay
You're the love You give to me
You're the love I give away
You are everything impossible
And that's okay
That's okay!
All the things that make no sense to me, draw me to You
Like finding freedom by surrendering, can it be true
With everything I can and cannot know
This mystery is bringing life to me
And all this love I have for You I can't contain
I know I'll never be the same
You're everything I cannot see
You're everything I cannot say
I know it all seems so illogical
But that's okay
You're the love You give to me
You're the love I give away
You are everything impossible
And that's okay
That's okay
What's so hard to understand
What I cannot comprehend
Is that You love me the way I am
You're everything I cannot see
You're everything I cannot say
I know it all seems so illogical
But that's okay
You're the love You give to me
You're the love I give away
You are everything impossible
And that's okay
You're everything I cannot see
You're everything I cannot say
I know it all seems so illogical
But that's okay
You're the love You give to me
You're the love I give away
You are everything impossible
Jeremiah 29:11
11 For I know the plans I
have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm
you, plans to give you hope and a future.

| So I discovered my split personality today. It turns out this other side of me is Laverne De Fazio from Laverne and Shirley. My other half is totally opposite of me. She drinks pepsy and milk together- I prefer water. She hopes to find a man- I still think boys are totally grose. ^_- (wink) She worked at a bottle capping factory for awhile- I havn't had an official job just yet. Oh the joys of schizophrenia!!! :)
Yep I dressed up as Laverne for movie night at my youth group tonight. It was pretty fun. Did you all know that Hannah Montana is actually a boy eighth grader? Me neither ^_^ Well....ya'll come back now ya hear!? TTFN!

| Hey everyone!! I hope anyone reading this is doing well. Today was very relaxing- I read, cleaned some, and baked 51 homemade double chocolate chip cookies. Hehe I am sick to my stomach now but I actually managed not to overeat, they are just very rich :) I am reading a book called Oceans Apart by Karen Kingsbury and oh it is so sad! I cried! But I know in the end it will turn out good, it always does. And then I feel warm inside. Hehe again. Well I don't have much else to say, so I will close with this song that has been so inspiring to me lately, esp. the verse I will make in bigger font.....
Praise to the Lord, the Almighty
Praise to the Lord, the Almighty
The King of creation
O my soul, praise Him
For He is thy health and salvation
All ye who hear, now to His temple draw near
Praise Him in glad adoration
Praise to the Lord
Who o'er all things so wonderfully reigneth
Shelters thee under His wings
Yea, so gladly sustaineth
Hast thou not seen how thy desires e'er have been
Granted in what He ordaineth
Praise to the Lord
Who doth prosper they work and defend thee
Surely His goodness and mercy here daily attend thee
Ponder anew what the Almighty can do
If with His love He befriend thee
Praise to the Lord, O let all that is in me adore Him
All that hath life and breath
Come now with praises before Him
Let the 'amen' sound from His people again
Gladly forever adore Him
Chorus:
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

| It's Jesus
Who can fill my heart with joy,
When all the earth is trembling?
Who can sing a song of love
So sweet my heart comes running?
Who can take a wounded soul
And fill it up with life, and make it whole?
It's Jesus (3x)
The lover of my soul
It's Jesus (3x)
The lover of my soul!
Who can fill our broken world
With grace that leads us to repent?
Who can fill a broken heart
With hope and faith that's heaven-sent?
Who has walked our road of pain
And bears the Name that is above all names?
Who has promised us that we
Will live with Him forever
If we will deny ourselves,
And learn to love each other?
Who calls us to take our cross
And count the former things to us as loss?
Luke 24:1-8
1On the first day of the week, very early in the morning, the women took the spices they had prepared and went to the tomb. 2They found the stone rolled away from the tomb, 3but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. 4While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. 5In
their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but
the men said to them, "Why do you look for the living among the dead? 6He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee: 7'The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, be crucified and on the third day be raised again.' " 8Then they remembered his words.
