I sit here waiting for Zane to make it to Auburn and have been thinking all day long about some things.

1. Women of the Bible, besides the select few, were highly unrecognized for their faith and boldness and submission.

Take Noah's wife. Nameless, yet in my opinion one of the most brave, courageous, supportive, faithful, submissive, and bold women to have ever graced the earth. To have never seen rain before, ever, and to have her husband say water will fall from the sky and the whole human race will be wiped from the earth, except you, me, our sons and their wives. Now that had to be pretty crazy thing to hear, and yet she trusted in God, that he would do what he said, but also she trusted her husband. She submitted to the will of God and the will of her husband. She supported him in every way. Wow. I want to be like her.

2. Harry Potter is Awesome :)

4. My sissy graduates today. I'm so glad I get to go home for a few minutes with the most special man in my life :) #cheesy

I've been thinking. The weary need rest. right? An obedient spirit receives favor? and wisdom comes from being obedient right? I'm thinking all these things. and realizing through logic, trek with me here, if gaining wisdom from being obedient means resting when you are weary, then you will receive favor. Wow. What a sentence full. My brain hurts :)

But in all seriousness, I realized I was going to fast. Not really pacing myself and expecting I could do so much that I probably couldn't. Now that I've rearranged some things I have more time to do what I need and do what my mother has said. This is all good. The Bible also promises that I will have a long life if I honor my parents. Well all these things came crashing down on me. I'm not superwoman, wonderwoman, batwoman, catwoman, whoever else the super heros are. I never believed I was, but I did believe I could handle more than I could chew, and quite honestly, I knew it. I was embarrassed. That should have been the first sign. But did I listen? Of course not. Thankfully 1 email sent me over the edge and I completely reconstructed everything I had thought I had built and could do. My life is now 10x simpler. Praise the One who paid my debt! I feel as if I just took a breath and I didn't even realize I was holding it. Wow.

Anyways. Now that that is out of the way, it has made me put some other things on hold that I would have liked. And who's to say that they won't happen when I want them too:)

They probably won't.

This post is just going to be a bunch of things I've learned/thought/whatever and just haven't had time to write them down.

I was thinking about tears the other day. Tears : messengers for the soul. Sometimes good, often times bad/sad. But nevertheless, messengers. What a simple thing. How creative is God to create sometime so small and simple but speaks volumes. He is amazing I tell you. And if you ever have a real good cry fest, you know where you're ballin and tears are flowing. The Bible says he keeps records of every tear. EVERY TEAR. For Vivian Leigh Turner, that would fill a library. haha. He is that big. He hurts when I hurt. He rejoices when I rejoice, He is sad when I am sad. The tears are sacred although often spilled. When He is near, and I am weak, strong, encouraged, mostly humbled, I cry. Those are my favorite tears. To be in such a presence of God that my tears won't stop. Maybe those are His favorite too.

Wow. I'm so glad to be back in Auburn.

Got some new Chacos today. To say I am excited is probably the understatement of the week. They are children's Chacos with aliens on them :) Here they are: Alien Chacos

Sweet!

Well that's it for now..

By the way, I am loving the Bible Zane got me for my birthday. Seriously. Beautiful.

And I wanna be closer to Him, so I'm diving in, abandoned before the Lord, and searching for His heart. What a beautiful Journey it's been. :)

Peace n' Blessins

To say it has been a while, is an understatement.

This semester is over and it has been a wild ride. I'm not sure if anyone reads this, if yo are? Hello. If not, well it's nice to get my thoughts out. It's been a crazy semester. I miss Auburn already. I miss Zane. But I'm glad to be in Birmingham. Thinking about everything this semester, that I've been shown, or learned.

1. Stay faithful in the little things.

2. Obedience equals favor

3. Let your Yes be Yes and your No be No and you will obtain trust

Most of the stuff came with 252 and work. It was amazing, to see such simple sentences acted out in everyday life. And it was wonderful little nuggets of truth.

But this semester was like a rollercoaster. Ups and downs. Not to mention feeling like everything was upside down. I never felt more distant from the Lord and never felt nearer. To say this semester has been crazy is an understatement.

Now it's the summer time. I need to be closer to the Lord. I have expectations.

1. I need to feel closer to the Lord, everyday.

2. I need to be shown things.

3. I need to grow.

4. I need to be bolder.

5. I need faith.

I do not want to be lonely. I need His presence more than anything. And today starts that.

On a side note,

It's May. That means I get to start my new Bible. I've been doing this for 3 or 4 years now, I would guess. This time its NKJV. and it was given to me by my sweet sweet Zane for my birthday. I'm excited to read it. Too read the beauty of the Lord.

Each translation isn't a right or wrong way, I believe it is just another aspect of the Lord.

Now. Here we go. Summer 2011.

Things I would like to do/learn/have this summer?

1. An xbox. HOW BOYISH. right? but I wanna learn how to play. I want one. I wanna be able to play with the boys and then beat them.. what is it in me that has to win?

2. I want a ukelele, to play, to learn, to MASTER!

3. I want a diamond.... okay okay I'm getting out of hand.

:)

have a good night.

I'll blog tomorrow,

hopefully :)

Peace and Blessins
