Relient K

Am I at the point of no improvement?
What of the death I still dwell in?
I try to excel, but I feel no movement.
Can I be free of this unreleasable sin?
Never underestimate my Jesus.
You're telling me that there's no hope.
I'm telling you, you're wrong.
Never underestimate my Jesus.
When the world around you crumbles,
he will be strong.
He will be strong.

I throw up my hands.
" Oh, the impossibilities."
Frustrated and tired,
where do I go from here?
Now I'm searching for the confidence I've lost so willingly.
Overcoming these obstacles is overcoming my fears.
I think I can't, I think I can't.
But, I think you can, I think you can.
I think I can't, I think I can't.
But, I think you can, I think you can.
Gather my insufficiencies and place them in your hands.
Place them in your hands.
Place them in your hands.

So I’m totally excited. I just got done writing my first book! It’s a book with all of the poetry I’ve written so far in my life. It’s about 55 pages and I just have 5 copies of the book bided at Kinko’s yesterday. I’m giving a copy to some of my family members. I hope to find a publishing company so I can possibly get it published. That would be so awesome! But if any of you would like one, just let me know and I can probably make one for you. The cost for the binding is like 5 bucks so I would probably ask for like 7 or 8 dollars. I’m really excited to give them to my family, especially my grandma because for a long time she has told me I should do this…but I don’t think she will expect it at all!

          Well, I’m off to Sioux Falls this weekend. I’m getting my hair done (which I’m also excited about) but more importantly I’m going to see my ex boyfriend of 2 or 3 years that I’m kinda sorta slowly getting back together with. I haven’t seen him in like a year so I’m really nervous! It feels like everything is starting all over again. I have the nervous school girl gitters and my stomach has butterflies in it. I’m more anxious than nervous but I can feel my nerves working more. I have like 2 hours before I leave to go to Sioux Falls and I just know that the whole way there I’m going to be shaking and not be able to sit still. I won’t actually see him however until 10 pm but It’s gonna kill me the whole time before. The build up to that moment is going to really get to me. I really hope everything goes well and that this is what I’m supposed to be doing. I miss his family sooo much so I can’t wait to see them either. His older brother and his brother’s girlfriend had a baby girl about a year ago and so I can’t wait to see his niece. Agghhh….I hate the anticipation of it all. Well I’m going to shut up now because I’m just rambling (because I’m nervous)….but I’ll keep you all updated!

You can do a trail Blockbuster online for 14 days and then cancel or sign up for BMG music to get 14 cds for the price of one.

I need 5 people to sign up for one of the offers in order to recieve mine. So please help me to get my I-pod that I would like so very much. I cannot afford to spend $250 on one so I'm trying everything possible to find one for cheaper. Thanks!  :)

God's Will. Wow, those are tough words to swallow. In my life I've struggled with God's plan for my life. Like any stubborn human, I sometimes think that I know what is best for my life. And I even take matters into my own hands when waiting for His will takes too long. As I read the Bible, I have found that I am not alone. Many people in the Old Testament took matters into their own hands instead of patiently waiting for God. Patience is tough too. For us, in this hurried world, everything has to be done in a timely manner. God, however, is on no time schedule. We fail to realize this sometimes and when God doesn't reach our deadline....well we feel the need to act immediatly. When we act on our own accord, it only leads to disaster and devestation. Waiting for God to take action to our prayers is hard to distigush at times. How do you know what God's real will is? How do you read what might possibly be signs? So, you pray again for God to make it clear. But then again, the same questions arise. How do I know this is God speaking to me? Are these really signs to lead me to my answer? It can be very confussing. I want to follow God's plan in every aspect of my life; but I become deeply confused at times because I do not know how to tell. In the Bible, it seemed that God made it clear, very clear, what he wanted from his people. Now days, he makes it hard to read. I have this one decision that I need to make in my life. I've prayed and meditated on it day and night. I've asked God to give me clear signs and to lead me to what I must do, if I must do anything at all. I've waited. The urge to make this decision has grown so strongly that I feel I cannot wait any more. So, I don't know whether this urge is a sign from God, or just my human ways. I am completely confussed and torn inside. Now, I even dream about it. I cannot think about anything else but this choice. I just feel like falling to my knees and shouting to the sky, "What do you want me to do, God! I just want to please you, but please tell me how! I'm confussed, hurt and tired, Lord! Where are you?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

There once was this boy in love with a girl, however the girl became very confussed. She indeed did love this boy, but needed to find her own peace of mind. The girl traveled the world, in search for diamonds, ribbons and pearls. She thought there must be another greater than he, another boy that would make her happy. As she searched and searched nothing she did find, but heartache and misery from mankind. She then become oh so blue, and no longer knew what she would do. Her heart it told her to go back to her love, to go back and give him kisses and hugs. She knew that this is what she did want, but how could he love her still, she thought.  "I've done so much wrong and hurt him so deep. How could this love we had he still keep?" She packed all her things and got on a plane.  She could not want to get back home again. She ran up the driveway and into her house, she even was wearing her favorite blouse. Yelling his name she ran in a hurry, she tore up the stairs in a furry. Her heart beated fasted as she approached her room, suddenly she heard a great boom. She peared in the doorway to she him there, she ran to him and said a prayer. He opened his arms to recieve her embrace. He held her close and kissed her face. "I'm sorry my love, I was so wrong. I'm sorry it took me so long." "I knew you would come back someday to me. I knew you would so I did not worry you see." They stayed there wrapped in each other's arms. He loved her and kept her safe from harm. And that is how love always goes. One doesn't and one always knows. When you love someone let the go. And they will come back to you so and so.
