Sorry

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Just can't find the time now that school has started. It's sad summer has ended but right now I can't for October 21. Britt Nicole has a free concert and I'm going to go to it! It's going to be AWESOME!

In our family, we memorize a verse every week. I need to work on it. Here it is:

For the slightest momentary affliction is preparing us for an enternal weight of glory beyond comparsion, as we look not to the things that are seen, but to the things that are unseen. For the things unseen are transient, but the things that are unseen are enternal.

Awesome, right? Well, I have to finish my math right now. TTYL!

Colossians 3

Do not lie to one another seeing that you have put off the old self, with its practices, and have put on a new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator.

Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness and patience, bearing with one another and if one has complaint against each other, forgive each other as the Lord has forgiven you, so you much forgive.

Isaiah 41:13

For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of YOUR right hand and says to you, do not fear I will help you. Isaiah 41:13


This is my best friend, Anna's favorite verse, and one of my favorites too! She is the best friend a girl could ever have! She recited that verse to me yesterday.

This is her new favorite song All this Time, by Britt Nicole. This is one of my favorites too.

The Full Poem

I thought I'd post the full version of my poem, If I Never Knew You. I already posted some of it before. It's for my book with the same title.

I thought I'd say something to you before I live and die.
So here's what I'm saying right now, here's what I decided to write:

Let's just say our relationship wasn't bright
And I would tell Mom and Dad to get you out of my life
But through all our fights and strife,
I discovered something that I've been missing all this time

If I never knew, I wouldn't have changed
If I never knew you, I would still be out of range
If I never know you, I wouldn't have realized
The true meaning of love and sacrifice.
If I never knew you, things would be the same,
But maybe, just maybe, it's better that way

Failing

Just so you know, I am a writer and that's something I definately plan to take on professionally. I am still considering becoming a counselor or a singer, but writing is something I will never let go.

I wrote a book a couple months ago abot forgivness. When my first characterwas complaining about having to forgive someone and said, "God can't just expect me to do that!"

His aunt replied, "Oh no, he doesn't. He knows you're going to fail!"
"Then what is trying to prove? That I'm a failure! That I don't deserve to be with him!"
"No, he's not! He's trying to prove that you need him."

Even if we fail or not, God is trying to prove that we need him 24/7.

Goodbye!

One last post before I go on vacation. Love the Olmypics! Remember to watch Micheal P.'s last race tonight! Here's an AWESOME song. Remember to pray for Taylor Swift. Her parents just divorced. Really sad! But the good thing is she'll  write a song about it. Maybe she'll get into it as much as she does in these.
