I've gotten into the habit of Thanking God before asking for other things.
So, I'm gonna thank Him for what he's done and then ask him for what I need.
My Thankfuls:
~My loving Family
~Great Friends and my sweetheart
~Opportunities/hope of a future
~Sunny skies and rainy days :)
~God's Forgiveness and mercy
My Prayer List
~Strength( in all the ways)
~A good job
~Wisdom
~Mercy
Of course, I left out many things. If I were to post all my prayers and thanks--I would never finish.
God Bless!!

Inspiration For The Week...
Going to Church on Sundays is like charging up for the week. The worship and praise and the word from God is a rejuvenating and can be like ammo to tackle the week ahead.
Once I'm sure my heart is right with God, a good day at Church is...inspiration for the week.

Loneliness
Hello readers,
I've been feeling really lonely for the past two months or so. I have people all around me, so it isn't a physical loneliness. I think that's it a spiritual loneliness that also affects me emotionally. I have been putting people and things before God. Times that I need to spend with God in some prayer and bible reading and singing, I spend it when other people or doing something else. And as a result I feel that the deeper relationship that my God and I have developed over the summer is becoming a little bit shallow.
The connection between me and God is what keeps me going. It's what puts a smile on my face everyday and not let things get me down. And I realize that the times when I get hurt and sad the easiest are the times when my heart is missing God's presence; times when I'm not spending enough alone time with him. And to fill the void, I may turn to someone else and generate temporary happiness from them, which never ends well.
I need to set a day and a back-up day(in case of emergency or something on the planned day), to have at least 2 hours of alone time with God. Although I read my bible and pray everyday, I think I need to have one day, just me and God, when I can sit for 2 hours and get refreshed for the week. I know that as long as I keep going to the power source, which is my God, to get my happiness...I wont need to rely on anyone or anything else for my permanant happiness! :)

God's Word!

Psalm 144: 15
"Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the lord."
Happy are the people whose God is the Lord. I am so happy that the God that serve...is truly Lord! He's not just in my head, or my heart, he's not just in the church...he is everywhere, he is Lord!

Hasn't He Always Come Through?
Hello Readers,
I'm back, from weeks of not being able to post. For those of you who have read my previous posts...you know why that was.
However, like always God has come through for me. I now have more internet access, I have the books I need for my classes...He's just been working everything out, just like I knew He would!
Until next time,
~God bless! :)

College Books!
Hey guys,
Still having this incredibly annoying wi-fi problem, but I'm dealing. It's been about two weeks since school started and while the work is still light, this is the time of the semester when people are scrambling to get textbooks at low prices. An average math textbook at cost $100 and more! And then there's till other books to get!
I have been getting a little stressed, especially since I've been getting assignments from books that I haven't even purchased yet! But when I take some time and read my bible and have some one-and-one with God, he reminds me of who he is! And that I don't need to get stressed about this. Did I mention How much I love Him!!! So amazing!
I just wanted to give you guys a little update! Hopefully I can post again soon!
~God Bless! :)

The Unexpectable
Hey Readers,
I'm so sorry for not having posted in so long. It's not because of school, because the work hasn't gotten so bad as yet. It's because the free public wifi (wireless Internet) that I have been depending on for Internet connection, is suddenly not working!
It's been working perfectly fine for months, but now all of a sudden (when school started back) it has decided not to work :-(
I'm trying to find a solution to this very inconvenient and annoying problem and in the meantime I'm using my relative's computers.
It's really getting to me because my professors post class assignments online and I would hate to miss an assignment because I have no Internet access.
However, I know who my God is! And that there is no aspect of my life that he can't handle. So like everything else, I'm putting this into his hands!
