| I had a wonderful time with my family tonight! I just thought I'd share that with everyone. My mom and step-dad and I went to Springfield this afternoon and shopped around and went to different stores. Then we ate some dinner at Culvers which makes cheeseburgers like my grandma made them. Then we went to the Palace and watched Flicka. It was a great movie and it made me even more thankful for dads. My dad may not be around physically, but I know he still lives on inside of me...scarry sometimes, huh. But even though he is not here, I am thankful to have James (my stepdad) in my life. He is a hard working man. He works hard to earn his paycheck at the end of the week. He is a gentleman and he respects my mom and I and we respect him. We may not have long father/daughter chats like my dad and I use to have, but we do have our moments of bonding. He loves me as his own child and I love him very much as well. I just thank my Heavenly Father for my family. I thank Him that He gave me people in my life who care so much for me. He gave me a family and wonderful friends who mean so much to me. I wish I had more to offer to God. He has given me so much. And you know...He didn't stop there, because before He gave me a family, He gave me Freedom through His Son Jesus. I don't always live the way I should and fail many times before I get one thing right, but God still loves me no matter what. And all this and family too! Wow! I just hope the man that God has for me will be as good of a husband as my step dad has been to my mother. I think the world will come to a hault on the day that either one of them go to meet their Father in Heaven.
God, please take care of my family and friends and bring some love to those who don't have anyone to love them and hold them. And let us that are overflowing with love from others share our love with those who have no love. Thanks for being so big God and for being the love that I need in my life right now!

| FamilyHey everyone! Hope all is going well for everyone. I'm back in Arkansas for Thanksgiving break. Its been a little rough at times so far, but as hard as it is to say...somewhat good as well. God is teaching me and molding me while I'm here. God has been working on me for awhile...I guess I've just been choosing to ignore it because it hurts. However, the preacher at the church that I attended this morning had a great message. God really used him in my life this morning. It was one of those messages that you feel like was prepared and spoken just for you. So, I God really spoke to my heart this morning and I hope I heard everything He said. I would ask anyone that might pass by this site in the near future and reads this blog to please lift me up in your prayers. Please lift my family up as well. I want to believe that our family could be at a good turning point right now. Nothing has really happened yet, but as I am seeing things unfold in my life and heart, I am praying that something good will happen among my family as well. I am praying that God will do something really big and powerful among my family this week. I am praying for a spiritual revival in all of our lives. Will you, my brothers and sisters, please join me in praying for myself and my family as we go through this week. I know I don't talk to some of you much anymore, but I do think about you all. And I do hope to catch up with you all in due time. But in the meantime, I am thinking about you and I pray that you are all doing well. God bless you and your families! In Christ, Amanda | | |
| What's up guys? How's life and all that stuff going? I haven't talked to many of you in a very long time. It would be great to hear from some of you that still read this old thing. Anywho...I hope everyone is doing great! I'm doing great! I'm taking everything one day at a time because that is all I can do. I have officially registered for classes for next semester. Next semester will be my very last. I would ask that those of you who enjoy praying, please pray for me and the direction that God is sending me in my life after graduation. I don't exactly know what that is at this point. Pray with me that God will show me what that is in His great timing and that I will be sensitive to Him when He speaks. Love you all! Hope everything is going great. Let me know if there is anything I can do for ya'll. I love you, my friends! I am praying for you that God's will is done! Take care you'ns (in the language of the Missourians....lol)
Later,
Amanda

| Are you ready to love?God, You have loved us, but are we ready to love You by loving those around us? Love God, love people, and then love God some more. God is faithful and just to forgive us. Can we be faithful and just to forgive others? Though sometimes its hard to love and forgive...we are still called to do this. Although, it may take a lot of help from God, it is still possible, right?
What is God doing in your lives? | | |
