Mission Chicago

I was touched by this experiance in so many ways, there isn't enough space to fill my thoughts.

It was incredible and I feel so good, knowing that God used me in a way that I never thought possible. I loved getting into places where people never want to be. In soup kitches and such. It was amazing, and I am over flowing with desire to serve the Lord.

Something to Think About

The Lord has put alot of things on my mind...and I am honestly confused. I am have doubtful feelings about my relationships. With almost everyone. Accpecially my family. My dad wants me to look into going to Alaska University to go to college, and I want to go back to Oklahoma for college. I told Clint about this and he pleaded with me not go to AU, he wants me to stay close, and I think we need time apart. Of course we've both been working lately and  not had alot of time together, but still time apart is necessary for us to take a breath and focus on what the Lord wants without stress, and so on....

I have also recendled a friendship with my ex  boyfriend Jason. We've come so far since we broke up after a hard relationship too. We've settled all the water under our broke bridge, and are friends again....have been for a long while now. We love eachother as friends, and have been something like prayer partners....we've really connected again. Thats just so cool..

What a Week.

Wow. I started babysitting just this past monday. I babysit for a wonderful woman and her husband. They have three children whos ages range from 2-8. I've been taking them to vacation bible school this past week, they had a blast. I like my job, but wish I now has more time for myself. But its okay I'm getting paid pretty good money to babysit these children. 2 boys and 1 girl. The girl is the oldest.
Since I've gotten this job, I've not had alot of time for Clint and I and I think that puts some strain on our relationship. I'm not worrying about it though, cause whatever God has in store will happen. I am getting baptised on Sunday, and going a mission trip fundraiser on Saturday.

A Song that shows my emotions right NOW.....


Goo Goo Dolls
Here Is Gone


You and I got something
But it's all and then it's nothing to me
And I got my defenses
When it comes to your intentions for me
And we wake up in the breakdown
Of the things we never thought we could be

I'm not the one who broke you
I'm not the one you should fear
What do you got to move you darling
I thought I lost you somewhere
But you were never really ever there at all

Chorus:
And I want to get free talk to me
I can feel you falling
And I wanted to be all you need
Somehow here is gone

I have no solution
To the sound of this pollution in me
And I was not the answer
So forget you ever thought it was me

I'm not the one who broke you
I'm not the one you should fear
What do you got to move you darling
I thought I lost you somewhere
But you were never really ever there at all

Chorus

And I don't need the fallout of all the past
That's here between us
And I'm not holding on
And all your lies weren't enough to keep me here

Chorus

And I want to get free talk to me
I can feel you falling
I know it's out there
I know it's out there
I can feel you falling
I know it's out there
I know it's out there
Somehow here is gone

Happy Sunday

Today is God's day. Church service went really well. I felt the Lords arms around me the whole time. It was a blessing. The songs we sang were up lifting. I have had a lot of answers for God today. I have applied to Cornerstone University in Grand Rapids Michigan. I have come to the conclusion that if by August I don't know where or when I'll be going to college, I will do one of these two things.
1. Get a full time job in the fall.
2. Go to Descipleship Training School in Janruary.
I am open to the will of the Lord, and will do as He wants in my life.
GOD BLESS YOU, AND YOURS ON THIS HAPPY SUNDAY!!

Oh yes, before I forget. The Armstrong children have gone to camp for a week. A whole week without children, running and screaming around the house. How wonderful is that?? Please pray that they have fun and grow in their relationship with the Lord.

Sent in a New Direction By God

 I need some prayer. I have been stressed about because I found out that KVCC had a seperate application for their nursing program. I was really bummed and was about to give up. I haven't yet. But I have the feeling that the Lord is sending me in a new direction.
I found a christian college called Cornerstone University in Grand Rapids Michigan. I have applied online and will have to get my youth pastor to fill out a recommendation form for me. I also have to send them ACT info. They have a seminary!!! For graduate students that sounds so interesting. I strong encourage you to look at the website and see what you think, and please please please pray for me. I would like to go into B.S. Degree and Minor in Pre-Med. Or' get a B.S degree and minor in one of the following:
    Ancient Languages
    Bible
    Missions
    Religion


Cornerstone University

: I think the Lord has really shown me something here. PLEASE PRAY....I am really wanting to go to this college, and I am okay with it being so far away from Clint. I think it would be good for us both.....and I think the Lord wants me to go too.

No Sleep and College testing.

I didn't get any sleep last night. Clint and I watched "The Haunted Mansion" and it scared me. Lol! I didn't like the spiders that were in it, nor did I like the zombies!
I am so exausted and I have to go to KVCC to take a 2 1/2 hr placement test. Yay! Lol! This is at 1030 and I also have an appointment with their financial aid councilor too.

Well wish me luck!
