Hey everyone!
In about an hour and a half I'm leaving for – Lindy and Lucy's!!! then for Portland!!! I wanted to make one last post before I leave, so I don't just drop off the planet for a few days, again I'm not sure about the internet sitiwation for awhile. never mind the misspelling, it's totally Dickens.
I'm soooo excited for tonight, but I could use some prayer for tomorrow morning. We're having breakfast with a woman who is one of the team leaders for the India trip, and it will pretty much decide whether I go or not this year. I'm being selfish, 'cause I want to go, but I want God's will first, I'm just not completely sure what it is, and I'm kind of afraid to find out if it's not what I want, lol. Selfish, right? Anyway, as I've said before, I need answers about a guardian, and about a good place for me on the team, and I'll most likely be getting those tomorrow morning. We're going to have a very busy weekend!
Wednesday on the golf course went really well; it didn't rain and I shot a 59, and I actually had a lot of fun golfing with the other girls. I found out that one of them who is really nice, lives right behind me, like less than ten minutes away! so we can carpool together and practice at my house and stuff. I also had a lefty golfer in our threesome, and then our threesome became a foursome when a freshman who has never golfed before joined us. that made me feel better, because I was no longer the youngest or the worst golfer, and even I was able to help her out with her swing a little. Youth Group last night was phenomenal! we talked about "Why Should I Believe in God?" with reasons from the head and from the heart, and broke up into smaller groups for discussion. I was praying that one person would be in my group, and that person was! It was much better than last time I went as far as the small group discussion went. I'm also going to see about joining the youth group worship team possibly in the future. And I found out that one of the boys in my group golfs for the same high school as me! so that's pretty cool. Even though he's on the boy's team and I'm on the girl's, it's nice to know there's a Christian hiding out there too, ha-ha.
I'm driving to Portland!!! and…I have to go finish packing. I think that's all I wanted to tell you guys. I'll be in touch as soon as I can! Vancouver, WA, here I come!!!!
Don't worry. Our cooking does not taste like a tire. I think you will be impressed at how good my mom's cooking is. :)
ReplyDeletenow you're going to vancouver too?
ReplyDelete*sigh* everyone's lucky but me! *colapses on the couch in a pile of rag curlers*
reasons from the head and the heart... that's really cool. Sam and I were talking once about how we (Christians) really beleive in God as a heart-thing, and that even if we could explain everything as a head-thing there's no way we would beleive it as much as we do when it's a heart-thing. i think it was donald miller inspired or cs lewis or some french guy or something. :-)
Well, sounds like you are going to have loads of fun!!
ReplyDeleteSoo. . . . how did your talk with that one person about that one thing go? You know. . . India?
ReplyDeleteVerya! I'm SOOOO happy you came! I had tons of fun, partly from trying to hide you when you had to leave. lol
ReplyDelete*sigh* you know how you look back at some thing and say "that was a perfect moment" ? We had one of those! When I grabbed your hand five minute before you left and ran up stairs and played My favorite thing! Your face lit up like a star and jumped and squeeled "we have to dance!" and grabbed my hands and we danced and sang and giggled and had a perfect moment. :)
Come back when you head home, k?
