'Why So Serious?' (A Walk To Remember)

Snowflakes

I'm not going to lie
but this chica is looking forward to snow!!! However, today is supposed to get 'hotter' and 'hotter'. So, no snow today . Oh well.

Last night I stayed up until 1... and wanted to get up at 6... I made it to the Livingroom this morning, then fell asleep on the couch, with my Bible in my hand (I was trying to do devotions...)
This week, PJ, Cass and Jesse, Rawlieghs one day, and a few others are leaving for thanksgiving. hosers.

Having a week off of school rocks!

And I'm gonna sing a song... actually, to save you the pain, I'll just write it down .

"It's 3p.m." she said, I said"You're crazy
"She said "get out of bed, why are you so lazy?
Why waste the day away?"
I said, "Because I'm tired"
"Wendy's called by the way, they told me that you're fired.

"Woah oh oh, Woah oh oh Woah oh oh, woah oh oh
I crash into a wall
Woah oh oh , Woah oh oh
there's a ringing in my ears
Woah oh oh, Woah oh oh
and it's my wake up call
Jesus gave me a wake up call
oh take this world with a grain of salt
Jesus gave me a wake up call
"It's 3 a.m." she said, "Who are you, Matchbox 20?"
She said, "Are you getting rest?"
Sarcastic, I said "Plenty"
"Don't be a hypocrit."
I asked "What are you saying?
"When you praise God, do you mean it?
Or are you sleeping when you're praying?

Woah oh oh, Woah oh oh
so wreckless for all these years
Woah oh oh, Woah oh oh
I crash into a wall
Woah oh oh, Woah oh oh
There's a ringing in my ears
and it's my wake up call
God gave me a wake up call
Take this world with a grain of salt
Jesus gave me a wake up call

By Relient K. I think this song is hilarious!


[verse 1]
I hope it snows this week,
A snow flake on your cheek
Would make this Christmas so Beautiful
But that would just bring the pain
Cause things can’t stay the same
These Holidays won’t be wonderful

[Chorus]
I look under the tree
But there’s nothing to see
Cause it’s a broken heart that you’re giving me

I can’t figure you out
Is this what Christmas is all about
Cause it’s a broken heart that you’re giving me

[Verse 2]
I don’t wanna talk
I’m sick of all this talking
A broken heart wrapped up in a Box
This tear drops in my stocking

[Bridge]
I hate Christmas parties,
They offer me some punch,
But I just shrugI hate Christmas parties
You and the cookie
Tray hear me say bahumba

Ful la la la la la…la la la la la la [x3]

[Chorus]

another one by Relient K.

anyhow, I do hope it snows this week! A snowflake on your cheek! .

Life feels so great when your living it for God's glory! And I praise Him for His Spirit working in me to have me desire that for my life! It's fantastic!!!!!!!!! Somehow, God has given me desires of beautifulness... desires to love and enjoy Him! I know they are not mine, for when given to my own desires I ran from Him. Now I yearn for Him more then anything! Only by His grace and work in my life!

A picture of what it was like when I give into the desires of my flesh and what happens when God saves me!

Living in sin is like living in filth... you feel 'good' when you first move into your 'sin' and that suddenly become your life, but after time it eats you away... you feel like you're breathing filthly air. Then, you make up, ask for forgiveness and grow. When that happens it's like suddenly being at the beach after being shut up in a hole of darkness and dirt with horrible conditions. Suddenly you feel the wind on your face, and though the light might hurt your eyes for a little, it become so glorious you can't help but bask in it. You won't want to go back to the black hole filled to your head in filth... no, run free in the sand. Swim in the sea! Get a tan in the sun! How can one experience the beach and go back to the black hole of filth? No, the beach is a great thing... once you realize how great and amazing it is!

Though sometimes the beach has tropical storms...
it beats living in a pit of filth

getting a tan on the beach.

The Comments From Last Post
and that was a rather longish title


comment from Joe "oh the downs. the downs aren't cool.but I heard this analogy once: It's like walking up a flight of stairs with a yo-yo. Even though the yo-yo goes up and down and up and down, it's steadily going up because the person who's carrying it is going up. i find it to be an encouraging thought."

comment from damaris: "the ups are needed breaks.but the downs are usually where most of the growth happens."

comment from Joe: "Ok. here's a thought I just had....If anything apart from hell is grace, and day by day we're experiencing the mercy of God, His common grace, and His Spirit's work in our lives.... are there really any downs?If we do perceive "downs" as literally being "downs" then there is most certainly an error in our thinking about our position in this life, because in light of what we deserve the most depressing "down" should be viewed as the sweet sanctifying work of the Spirit of God. for our ultimate good, and His ultimate glory"

Comment from damaris: "everything short of hell is grace." therefore even our worst trials are merciful compared to what we should recieve.BUT i think we need to be careful relating to other's hard times. the best friend will help you change your perspective, yes. but they'll be gentle and remember that sometimes those in the midst of pain can't see as clearly as those on the outside. it's much easier to say those things and know it in our minds than it is to really believe them in our hearts. another aspect of the grace of trials: when there's absolutly no earthly hope, things you only knew in your head before become promises you cling to everyday.i guess my point is that even with the right perspective there are some circumstances where we'll still feel sorrow. it's possible to view sickness and pain as grace in light of what we deserve, but it doesn't mean we won't be "building a sorrowful lovliness" at the same time."

Thank you two for putting those two comments up. I read them with glee and gratefulness!

and sorry for not puttin gup a 'real' post, I'm just letting everyone know that I'm alive and finished with 'fasting' ;).
