school? already???

this week the buzz has been all about school. why shouldn't it be? its a shock to think that we will go back to school on Wednesday. Although im quite happy because im ready to get my brain going again and get into the rutine of things again.

well not much has been happining in my life this past week. oh i got facebook, which is why i haven't been blogging much. im still not very good at the whole posting pictures thing, but i do have some pictures of leon and i posted. anyways, enough about facebook.

Kent came into town as well, our "crew" as he likes to call it, went to Timmys. we had so much fun and some of his other friends came too. it was sad to see him leave but it was really nice to see him. and its not like he's gone forever!
today me and katelynn and steph hung out. hahahaha we took some pretty ridiculous pictures of ourselves...lol
well hopefully my blogging will be more frequent than last year during school..lol

just thinkin...

right now im in a bit of a spiritual slump. at the beggining of the summer i was doing really well with devotions and praying and stuff. but when i got a job and stuff, i forgot about Him. it makes me angry to think that i would forget about someone so important and special to my heart, it would be like forgetting my birthday or something. but anyways i feel very empty and im sure most of you can relate to this feeling. even when i was doing my devotions it was like, okay read this one chapter and ur done and go to bed. Sometimes it wasn't like that, sometimes i would read more and be really interested. but im not feeling close to Him.
This morning my mom talked to me about God. Usually im like oh no, here she goes again. but this morning i was really listning to her and wanting to hear what she had to say. She talked about my purpose in life and how i have to listen to God and do his work. My purpose is to lead others to christ, this is our purpose. She gave me an image. She said, imagine you are in Disneyland and you are so happy and having fun, then theres this glass wall that comes down. You are on one side of it with other people, and others are on the opposite side. On your side there are all the believers, on the other are the people that God placed in your path to help lead to Christ but you never took the time. I don't want to go to heaven and look down at all the people i could've helped lead to Christ.
God has put a fire in my heart this morning to do his work. I feel like he is calling me. I don't know what he wants me to do but i know that it will bring me closer to him. Unfortunatly, when you start getting closer to God, Satan attacks you. There is a battle for each of our hearts and it is hard when Satan tempts you with the easy way out, but really its not so easy. Heaven will be great, the greatest thing ever and our hearts belong to Christ. He is awesome and he loves us so much.
There this guy at work who i realllllllly don't like. hes sorta creepy and annoying. Lately i've felt bad feelings towards him. I'm usually not like that towards people but for some reason i felt that for him. My mom knows about this guy and she said remember that he is one of God's children, whether he believes or not. He belongs to God and He loves this guy as much as you or any of us. Jesus says for us to be loving to those who don't love us. So now im going to take a bit of a different attitude towards this guy, because he is one of God's children.
I have to go for now, my bible and prayer journal are calling me...

Nickelback

Yesterday Leon and I went to the Nickelback concert at the Ex. It was totally awesome. Im not a huge fan of Nickelback but they put on a really good show. And surprisingly having beer thrown at me by Chad Kroeger isn't that fun. But i had a lot of fun. There was fire and fireworks and the music was super loud. oh did i mention i had floor tickets? It was soo squishy. There were like 500 people all crammed on the floor. It was so crowded but I was enjoying myself. It was really hot though and I hate being hot in a crowd. But anyways, so this badn called State of Shock played first and they were okay. They didn't get the crowd going very much, i wasn't a big fan. Then Yellowcard played and they were much better. I've heard someof their music on my snowboarding video game. At least they were more professional. But then we had to wait like 30 minutes so they could change the set for Nickelback. It was sooo big! Leon and i were really near the front so we could see the band really well. Unfortunatly theres always the drinkers but for the most part people just wanted to enjoy the show. They sounded extremly good live. And im going to the ex on Saturday probably, and im going on all the rides!!! well maybe not the merry go round and the sling shot. I already tried to get leon to go on that with me but he said he got sick just looking at it! but now i must study...

Court

hi guys. sorry to keep u all waiting in suspense about the court date. Like we all suspected the judge said that everyone needed more time so theres another court date booked for like the 14th or something. So yeah. that one may or may not decide something major. the judge could say the same thing and just give everyone more time. thanks for praying for us guys!
