BSF

Bible Study Fellowship. Tonight was the first night of the new "season." We are going to be studying the Acts of the Apostles, starting off with the book of Acts. It will go throughout the school year, so it's a lengthy study. Please pray that God will work through me and teach me and that I won't just go through the motions. Often times that's what I feel like I do, just go through the motions, instead of taking it all in and really giving in and surrendering to God. I don't know how to do surrender to him. I am willing, but how does one do that? Pray for me.  Pray that God would speak to me on any issues I am going through in my personal life, that he would guide me and give me discernment. Sometimes I wish that God would just give me a "yes" this is what I want you to do or a "no" this is what I don't want you to do. I need it to be so simple, yet I can't always get simple answers. Is this his way of saying you need to lean on me, you need to trust me? I think it is. But it's a matter of how, it's a matter of strength, of discipline, of caring about God's will for me instead of being indifferent to things. Keep me in your thoughts throughout the coming school year. I know I won't always do the right thing but I need strength to persevere.

Heaven is for Real

This book is such a great read. You will cry and be amazed how God speaks through children, particularly this little boy. Unless you become like little children, you will not enter the kingdom of Heaven.

So apparently when I signed up for Google+ I erased some photos which deleted them from Blogger too. I was wondering what had happened!

Catching Up

I haven't posted in a while, mainly because I don't have anything exciting to post. But, I forgot that I have some pictures from my trip to California in May, pictures from a Seattle trip I took with friends in early June and some pictures from the rodeo today. I'll be doing these in sections. Here we go:
