Rainy days

Its been rainy and gloomy all day today and even though i love the rain i wish it was sunny out. 
Whenever it rains i just wanna sit in my bed and take a nap and then go get coffee and sit for hours reading. But i can't do that today, tuesdays are my busy days and i feel like i have no time to just sit. But i found a little time to write this. Tuesday is the day when i have everything going on i have chapel before class, then i have two classes in the morning and then i have to do our dorm cleaning, which i don't mind at all cause I'm a little bit of a clean freak, then i have to go turn what we have called chuck tracks in and they just check and stamp it if we did it and then i have work from 3-7. This is only my second Tuesday back at school and I'm already feeling overwhelmed but I'm trying to don't get stressed out and rest in the Lord. On the bright side i started a new class today that i switched into last week and i love it its Genesis and my teacher is amazing, he's one of those teachers who you can listen to forever and not worry about the time. So I'm pretty excited for that class as the weeks go on. 


So i decided just now that I'm gonna try and put a little encouragement in all my post or most of them. 

My encouragement for you: 
Even in those days that you feel so overwhelmed with everything going on, remember to take time and rest. Rest in God. Really you will feel so much better when you do. and one thing i learned in my class last night,or the night before i forgot, but God gave you this day because He has a purpose for you today and everyday that you wake up, if He didn't have something for you to do today He would take you back to be with Him.

Once for all

"Once for all" only three words but to me they are so powerful.
As I'm sitting in my bed my roommate is playing the Scott cunningham band and they are one of my favorite bands after they came to my school last semester. But anyways one of their songs came on and it really spoke to me. Our God sent His son to die once for all. That's right ALL of us not just some or the good people. Us all. And that's so crazy to even comprehend because it's just amazing that all our sinful and wicked ways are paid for in full. It just gets me thinking how can we not serve our God who is so loving and would do that for sinners like me. We should want to be living for Hin everyday if our lives.

Valentines Day


Well here it is, another valentines day over.
My thoughts on valentines day has changes so many times over the years I've gone from hating it to loving it. Last year my valentines day was so bad cause i had a boyfriend but he ignored me the whole time so it sucked... but i don't want to talk about that cause its in the past. But honestly God has really changed my heart about this day i don't think about it as "oh crap I'm single and I'm gonna see everyone looking cute together and I'm gonna be alone forever." No. And if you think that ITS NOT TRUE!! God has shown me that its okay to be single for a little bit and no i don't need a guy to be happy at all. Love comes from God and we can't love anyone else unless we have the love of God in us and we are experiencing His love everyday. He is the ultimate valentine that will NEVER leave you or forsake you. He will be there when you have no one else to go to. For all you singles out there don't go looking for the right man God already has him picked out for you. While you are single and waiting for that guy that God has for you draw close to our true Love, God. That is what He wants us to do He wants us to come close to Him and become the woman or man that we are supposed to become in our single life. and remember God loves you more than anything or anyone ever could.


1 John 4:19 
We love because He first loved us.

Little about me

As i was sitting talking to my roommate about how i post way to many tweets about my life i started talking to her about how i should make a blog so i don't have to keep tweeting every thing i want to write down. So here i am 20 minutes later with a blog made and not knowing anything on how to even start a blog. But I'm going to do this and i want to this and I'm sure ill get into the whole knowing how to run a blog after i start messing around with all of it. ( or i can just google it. i google everything its kind bad) but anyways im just gonna post everything on here from my relationship i have with God and what He's done and is doing in my life to fashion to school and whatever else i can think of in my random brain Gods given me. So i hope whoever is reading this that you will love it and enjoy it as much as I'm going to enjoy writing this.
