Welcome day..i love you.

I get so frustrated when my Facebook doesn’t work.  Why does facebook have such control over my life?!  (o;  It really doesn’t..sometimes I wish I didn’t even have the thing.  It causes a lot of ruckus in my life sometimes.  It is a hilarious thing.  Don’t ever change anybody’s status without them knowing though.  I almost lost a sister that way.  (o;

I am still frustrated at it.

Today, I woke up at 10:30.  Uhmm…yes, I was quite lazy this morning.  I stayed up rather late last night though.  Project Runway Finale was on..and I was not going to miss that.  I was disappointed by who won, but I was quite inspired by Carol Hannah’s line.  It made me want to sew like crazy.  I will try to go to bed earlier tonight, because really, all this staying up late is killing me.  Sleep deprivation is like death I think…

Went with mamma to Costco this afternoon..we picked out a freezer, and I played a concert for the lovely customers.  They starred at me as I banged out coldplay’s Viva la Vida..and some original music scores I had written out for Bella’s broadway production.  I just love playing music for people.  I want to do it for the rest of my life.

Anyway, I haven’t written anything very spiritual in a while.  And it’s not because I’ve been having a hard time spiritually, but rather I’ve had a lot to think about lately.  God has been working in marvelous ways these past few weeks.  To see how He is working everything out is amazing.  I don’t have words to express the joy and faith He has been spreading throughout my heart.  Jesus has become such a beautiful friend to me.  A friend of mine called the other night, and we talked about how Jesus has changed each of us.  How He took our filthy selves, and made us new.  I started thinking about how God sees sin as sin..in His eyes, one is not greater than the other..we all need to be saved, and freed, and made new.  So, no matter what we have done in our past, Jesus is waiting to make us new.  He does not forgive one person more than another.  As I was thinking of this, I began to become excited and full of peace.  Jesus is forgiveness, no matter what we have done♥

I love Him for that.

I found a brilliant new artist.  J.J.Heller is amazing.  Her voice is so soothing, and her music so calming.  Reminds me of heaven.♥

This song encouraged me through some pretty grey days.

Dear me:
You need to go to bed earlier dear.
Way earlier..

going to kill you(o;
And tomorrow...
you NEED to work on those veils..
and remember to pray a lot...
because lately you've been bad at it...
and you need to write a gazillion letters tomorrow

(a real job).
Try and be happy tomorrow..
because happy is the best way to be.
My word!

Seriously.
goodnight♥

old pictures..and birthday packages.

Hello my dear friends!

Today I was looking through our picture folder.  I love older pictures so much.  I have so many good memories because of those pictures(but a very slow working computer now).  I came across this picture.

It made me smile.  I was happy that day.  I like happy pictures.

(I fell off that wall you know..and injured my foot.  I have no idea how I got up there…crazy me.)

Anyway..today I’ve been making presents for Kirstie.  I cannot wait for her to get them.  I am so excited about this package..so so so excited♥

Turns out we may be moving to Idaho.  My daddy has a phone interview soon.  Crazy life I am living right now.  I love it.  Even with all the trouble and hardness that has been going on.  Jesus does bring joy in the hard times.  My joy is not based on any one circumstance. It is all because of Jesus.  Sometimes it is hard to remember that, and it’s a really cloudy day, but I can never doubt my Saviour.  Jesus is alive inside of me.  He is my joy.

!!A shout out to everyone…If you would like to book me to play anywhere, I would be more than happy to come and do a show!  I’ve been working on a number of different songs.  Haven’t really had a chance to cut them, but I’m planning on it.  (o:

i’d like to make myself believe that planet earth turns slowly..

My mind is sprinkled with a mess of different things right now.

For some reason, the movie “The Secret Garden” has a certain line stuck in my head.  Remember when she is asking for a piece of earth?  That is what I feel like right now.  “Just a little piece of earth please”.

I am so so so happy.  Despite the horrible time I had last night.

There was this early “homeschool” thanksgiving meal last night.  Yes, I am way graduated, but I went with my family.  Anyway, I never really fit in with my “homeschool” peers…I was always the weird one.  I didn’t have any friends up until highschool.  I was super shy when I was little…sometimes I still am..but I love people, and I like to get to know them.  Being shy isn’t a good way to get to know people(o;  I still don’t fit in with those people though.  I was nervous about going to the thing, and my gut was right.  I walked in, and instantly got the “who does she think she is…what in the world is she wearing” look.  I used to have really bad self-esteem issues.  I don’t anymore, but when I got that look I started feeling like crawling into a corner.  I stood up straight and smiled though.  I wasn’t about to let that get the best of me.  Then I tried to start a conversation with an old friend.  I asked her some questions, she coldly answered them, and then just walked away from me.  Burn burn burn.  I felt like crying the rest of the evening.

I had to remind myself that I have some really caring and awesome family and friends.  That made a lot of things better.  I am so thankful that God has put such rad people in my life.  Thank you Jesus.  Thank you Jesus♥

I had an amazing time with Jesus this morning.  I’m almost finished with Isaiah.  I read chapter 65 this morning.  There are some beautiful verses in there…I just wanted to share this one verse with you though:

“And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.” (v.24)

As I read this verse, my heart began to swell, and it just made me so happy.  I want heaven so badly today.  I want Jesus even more♥

I really really really want to go to the beach soon(even now..).

I’M ALMOST 20!!!  I can’t believe it!  Countdown to my birthday.  I am so excited!

Started a new veil.  I am so excited about this one.  It is going to be so happy looking. (o:

Also, I have become completely addicted to Owl City.  I seriously have to listen to him all the time.  Adam Young’s music makes me so unbelievably happy.

I think I will go make some lunch now.  Hope you have a splendid day.  I love you my friends.
