ok so i hav bin told by friends that i NEED 2 update so chris..... this is dedicated 2 u lol.
aug 1st i left 4 war week (its a youth conference/missions trip in detroit) and its really a God thang that evn allowed me 2 go.... i wuz seein sum friends off (@ a frikin 6:30 in the morn!!!!!!!!!) and i told matt and amanda that i wuz starting 2 regret not going and then joe spoke up and said that i cud take his place and that he wuz paid 4 and evrythn!
well.......... im super gullible i thot they were just messin wit me so it took evry1 10min and my pastor puttin a hand on my shoulder and saying "MIKAYELA! IM YOUR PASTOR I WUDNT LIE 2 U! GO PACK UR STUFF!!!!!!!!" 4 me 2 get the picture but its all good :)
so we were off, no parents for 4 days! chris, victor, and i made a memory on the way there........... we dared eachother 2 jump in a motel pool that wuz near the gas station we stopped @ (ok so.... we didnt really ASK vic if he wanted 2 get in.... we just pulled him in w/us..... cell phone and all...... it dried out so no worries mate) ....... it wuz all good til the manager came out and wuz all mad @ us. grr oh well, we felt better.
it wuz a 13hr drive that turnd in2 16 (thx 2 the standstill traffic that we endured 4 about 2 and 1/2 hrs and potty breaks.... jasmine lol)
mostly, the trip wuz a success, i think the youth group grew closer and the speaking wuz perty good, the worship wuz AWEsum! but..... "war week" cant stay in detroit, its sumthn that u HAVE 2 bring home wit u or u will NEVR grow and mature in2 the man or woman that God created u 2 b.
that means spending QUALITY time wit the Lord each day.......
there were sum other things that happened in detroit....... i learned a lot about how 2 forgive and move on....... and im glad i did or i wud b missing out on 1 of the most wonderful REAL friendships i think ive EVER had
later y'all |
