man this weekend was terrific. i am 50 dollars closer to going to Romania, my best friend and her family joined the church, and in 3 weeks we are gonna start 40 days of love. i think this will be good for me in particular because i have been struggling with feelings of lonliness and doubt about whether i will ever find the guy God wants me to marry. i have been learning to trust God with this and its really hard. but reading in Romans i came across this:
"I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from His love. Death can't, and life can't. The angels can't, and the demons can't. Our fears for today, our worries about tomorrow, and even the powers of hell can't keep God's love away. Whether we are high above the sky or in the deepest ocean, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8:38-39
even if i dont find love from a man i am so encouraged to know that NOTHING will separate God's love from me.
i am also praying about what i think God might be calling me to do. i have such a passion for missions. i think that God might be wanting me to go into missions. i have a passion for the lost here in the united states. so many people here need Jesus more than ever and i think that God might want me to help him reach people here. i think he is calling me to Alaska but i am still praying fervently for this.
well off to soccer practice and then band practice. many blessings to those who read my ramblings.

so im redefining my blog. this is gonna be a mix of everything. whether it be life, politics, or just venting.
i have to get up real early in the morning tomorrow. soccer practice at 7, test at 9:30, therapy right after, class, class, then NAP. man im busy tomorrow. but anyways. ive been really blessed lately by a friend of mine and her husband. they are so awesome to hang out with and their kids are so fun to play with and just be around. they lift my spirits up so much and get me away sometimes of the muck and mire of college life.
tonight i was really convicted by phils' lesson on Faith and Works. he used James 2:14-26. the verse that got me is verse 26, "For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead." i know everyday that i let good work oppurtunity pass by and i know that i need to seek God's will and favor in all things and that can come by doing good works and having extreme faith in him. God is so good and I pray that it is my desire everyday to follow his will.
Well enough for tonight. I am going to study psychology. oh the joys of school.
