  • fall on HIM

    you know its really funny. i have lost a lot of friends lately and honestly i have cried a lot of tears. but i finally realized none of that really matters because all i need is HIM. somewhere in the bible it says that we need to give up everything and follow him, even if that means leaving our brothers, sisters, mother, father etc. and i really think i am learning that. He really is all that i need and HE is the reason i live and maybe He is taking these friendships away from me so that i can fall on HIM and find my happiness only in HIM. and i think this all needed to happen before i left for project. so as much as it stinks. i think i am learning from these crappy circumstances.

    peace, love, prayers

  • home sweet home...not

    ok so i am back in toledo at my house and i am just not happy here. i mean i really dont think i have anyone here anymore. all my UT friends are gone and the ones that are here i really dont have a relationship with anymore. it has become very clear to me that i am going to work very hard if i want to build those friendships up again. i missed a lot this last semester. it is so hard and so frustrating. i feel like i dont belong here. but i dont belong at AQ either...so where do i belong?! oh its so frustrating.

    i am ready to go on project...like now. i am so close to my support goal. and i am so ready to just feel like i belong and have that community, and i think (at least i hope) that i will have that on project. i am just so ready for this experience and to grow and learn.

    i am so over toledo already. i think this summer away will be good for me.

    ok now i am just rambling

  • discouragement :-/

    i am getting so incredibly discouraged with support raising. it started out great and i got 1/3 so quickly and i was on such high. the people i was getting support from were the ones that i least expected. it was amazing. but then....checks just stopped coming and i hit a wall. my family isn't supporting me at all. it is so frustrating. i sent out almost 50 letters and only heard back from about 20. so today i started calling people....all i got were answering machines and we are not interested and my one cousin even had the nerve to say "we are not interested in paying for your vacation" and then hung up without  letting me explain. i'm so discouraged. i have just under $2,000 in support still to raise and i just really dont know how it is going to happen. it is so incredibly discouraging, especially since my family really just wants nothing to do with it. trusting the lord is getting more difficult as each day goes by.

    also i am getting really nervous about if i am going to get into gvsu. i know it is all in god's hands, and god's will be done and in his timing but it is SO hard to trust.

    i hope something encouraging happens soon. i could really use it right now. <3
