My find
So yesterday while browsing the internet I ran across
Hillsong.comWhat did I find there, something new and exciting a new cd from Hillsong United. Unfortunately for me you can only get it in Australia right now. I searched and searched all over just to see if I could find the release date for America. No luck. I left a little disappointed, until I entered into the world of Myspace. I really dislike myspace but because my students have it, it turns out to be a good connecting point. With full knowledge United has they're own myspace page I went there looking for hope and low and behold I found three new songs that I could add as my myspace song. Imagine the excitement i felt after finding all this! So now I patiently wait watching videos on Youtube and listening to the three songs over and over hoping for that exciting day which will add a new great cd to my collection...
Also if you have time I suggest you take a look at this
instructional video on swimming since summer is coming and the pools are about to open!!! Trust me it may change how you will swim forever!!
My question for you
What would you like to read by me? Any suggestions? Maybe it's writer block maybe what I really want to right about I can't right now...So I'm asking you, if you know me well enough what do you want to know from me...maybe I could become a guru for you...so what's next?
My mental block
there is a lot i want to write about currently, but i can't my mind won't let me. My heart is heavy and has a lot to say but my mind won't let me communicate my heart. Maybe soon but until then pray.
My Leaning Post
So the other day for some reason I ran across Alan Jackson's hymns CD. On this cd was a song called "Leaning on the Everlasting Arms" Now a disclaimer I don't really like country music and really this blog isn't even about the hymn as much as the idea of actually leaning on the everylasting arms.
I have to admit to you that things aren't going as i planned them last year as I graduated college. In fact things are a lot harder than I ever knew them to be. Which really opened my eyes to the fact that my parents really did love me more than I could have ever known. So even though my parents don't even know that I blog or what a blog is, I have to say thank you for letting me lean on you so much during my childhood and even into my young adult hood.
But now I live in NC 10 hours away and mom and dad aren't here. So where do I lean when things are going well...I've always heard that our faith should become our own, and I finally get it. Over the last month I've realized my faith is not my mentor's, my faith isn't my pastor's, or my parent's. It has to be mine and it is becoming more and more. I can't lean so much on others and I must lean on the everlasting arms of Jesus. More and more I'm realizing how much greater God is to me than I am to Him, which allows me to trust him more than ever before.
It reminds me of the trust game you do in groups where you fall back hoping the person or people behind you will actually catch you...How willing am I to fall back? How willing are you to fall back? How much do we trust those everlasting arms of Jesus?
Thanks to all who have shown me this and who have poured so much into my life spiritually!!! I'm forever indebted to your love and support for me!
