i want a mini djembe. so today was good. i was pretty tired though. i will need to learn to get in bed early if i am going to be getting up earlier. that will take some time. the prayer meeting was really good this morning. i am beginning to get that heart of intercession i've been digging for. exciting. i am praying for the eyes and heart that abraham had concerning sodom and gomorrah when i look at my school and this city. he searched for the good and interceded for them. but my outcome will be different, i know!!! my school has been given to not only me but the Kingdom of God. yey. and just to let you know, i love caitlin, kasey, jessa, and olivia. they are some pretty stinking awesome people :D well that's all for today. God is good.

hint of something new in the air...

the smells of Christmas: the smell of holiday treats, burning fires in their fireplaces, pine trees, candy canes...
it's all so exciting! i'm more excited about this Christmas then i have been in along time, and i'm not sure why. i'm so thankful for where God has put me. He has blessed me with an awesome and loving family, saved me from the word, and on top of everything, He has blessed me by being my lover. i really want a deeper understanding of this season. for right now, God is just showing me how He loves to have fun with me, even baking brownies with me! He just loves for us to just delight in each other. He is always good. and that's that. You give and take away, but still my heart will say blessed be Your name.

i pledge my alligence to Jesus.

this picture makes me think of dancing around in the rain, that would be fun. hehe. well this week has been good. God is showing me things that will free me. ha, that reminds me of dancing in the rain too..being free. i read something where someone said they were as free as a canary. i'm baking an apple pie with my mom. it smells so good! the Christmas party is tomorrow. yey!

iwant to die a lot quicker than that
if it's my only way out
i've been counting up the cost
getting up on that cross
wanna know what this is all about
father time steals our days like a thief
there's no price that i wouldn't pay to get some relief
i've become the empy shell of a man I like so well
i am a living, breathing hell

come on and resurrect me
