So Close

It's so cool when you live in an area where you are acessable to everything. I can just go to Safeways, Longs, Coldstones, Jamba Juice, Trader Joes, Library, Kinkos, and etc. In 5 minutes or less! It's so cool. I can get to BART in 10 mins or less. I can get to my dentist or oral sugery place in 2 minutes. I can get to my orthodontis in 3 minutes. I mean everything is just so close.

Everything is so close. But are friends, family, and God that close? Well I just have to say totally God is closer than all of that He's like always there he is close by.....

Overload

I'm full. I've been eating alot! Yesterday I went to Fresh Choice and today went to Round Table and had a salad buffet and pizza. I'm always spoiled at my friends houses.

I guess I've had an overload of generosity. Thanks so much guys! People asking me if I needed money for my missions trip...I'm going to say no right now.

Also we went dress shopping yesterday. Let's just say we looked and looked for hours on end! But nothing...Then we went to the kids section...haha Yes, kids section. And I found something! and it fit! Lol...kind of big.....

It's so cool to get so much and lets just say so much you can't take anymore. It's cool. Well God is like that. He gives us more than we need. But also he gives us the right amount at the right time. Everything has it's time and purpose.

Dodgeball

Today I went to watch Dodgeball. It was kind of lame. My butt kind of hurt. Heehee..I was sitting in the middle of two chairs. Melanie on my right and Michael on my left. The movie should have been rated something higher. I didn't like all the things in it...so much swearing and sexual content.

So lets get down to the reflection. Man I forget what I was going to reflect on in the movie...so here's just some of it.

Never give up. When you are about to fall and you do the negative thing you may regret it.

Like for me I think I've gaven up many times, but to a point I know I go to far. That I know if I do give up now or if I did give up I would regret what I did or chose to do. I think many times we gear off into a different direction and we never follow what we want to be or do. We follow and we more are so pursuaded by what the world thinks or does that we never think about...er..i be back.

Open Arms

Yesterday I went to see Angela and the Lovells. It was cool her mom was like man I haven't seen you in a long time...What was it...since K or 1st...lol. Good times. She totally was like give me a hug. Heehee...

Thats how God is when you haven't recongnized Him or gone back to Him in awhile. Know that His arms are open wide!

Also it was kind of funny today after taking my 4 teeth....2nd premolars/bicuspits we walked out 3 old ladies in the room and my dad saids bye to them! So cute! haha...

My eyes just automatically popped open today at 5:30AM! I can't believe it. I'm really tired. But yesterday night wasn't all a good night...My stomach still hurts from it...

I really fell hard yesterday emotionally. But, I knew God was there....But, something felt different...I wonder what I got into yesterday man...How can one person just start crying and not know what they're crying over? I don't know...

But I drew closer or am drawing closer to God cause of yesterday.....

Sore But Moving

My soreness is a sacrifice to my Savior.

I've been sore since Sunday and then we had to run the mile and a half yesterday. I never gave up and I tried my hardest for the glory of Him.

Everything Has Its Time

Ecclesiastes 3:1-9

To everything these is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven:
A time to be born, And a time to die;
A time to plant, And a time to plick what is planted;
A time to kill, And a time to heal;
A time to break down, And a time to build up;
A time to weep, And a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, And a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, And a time to gather stones;
A time to ebrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to gain, And a time to lose;
A time to keep, And a time to throw away;
A time to tear, And a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, And a time to speak;
A time to love, And a time to hate;
A time of war, And a time of peace.

We at times are anxious for things to happen. We too may think things won't happen and worry sooo much about them that sometimes we are so occupied we don't know what to do. We have to let God do his work. He has made everything beautiful in its time.

*A cool thing that happened today everyone had to use someones cell phone. My group is made up of different languages. So Sherry made her first call in Taiwanese! Then Sally in Korean, then me in Toysan/Cantonese! Sooo coool!

Prayers for Summer Break

Father,
This summer will be
full of new experiences for me:
-summer school
-golf
-softball
-braces
-daycamp
-exciting mission trips
-vacations
-relaxation
-challenges.
Grow me, stretch me
through whatever we do,
and through wherever I go,
so that I'll end the summer
just a little more like you.

Lord,
What about you and me?
I don't want to
forget you just because
I'm off my normal school-year routine.
Keep close to me, Lord,
and remind me that my relationship
with you should never take a break.

Almost There

I'm almost there! 10 more hours of school. And like 2 hours of studying!? Haha...What have I got myself into. Well lets say I get stressed to the point very easily. Like if I do something wrong, or something just happens, or if someone critisizes me..I get really stressed out to the point where I'm like I'm going to kill myself now. Because I just can't handle everything. Today when I got home I kind of went bonkers. I was like crying...I was like...man what happened to my life....? Err...I guess it's all good....,I don't know how it will go but, "my heart will say, blessed be the name of the Lord."

This summer is going to be chop chop....Summer school, Daycamp, Mission Trip, School....Very chop chop...I'm just going to let God have this summer. I'm going to let it all be His...It's his will....God is so awesome. I can't believe I endured this year....Well I didn't do it all by myself...It was Him...All Him! Thank you God for getting me this far! 3 more years til college. I'm thinking about staying close to home, who knows....God's plan will sooon reveal it self to me....

Congraduations to:
My Cuz Amy
and
Aunty Lisa and Uncle Galen!
Wedding is next month...and I have no I deer what to wear....
How about some rabbit? Haha...j/k...I don't own a dress...so I might have to look for one...and I need skirts for the missions trip...great....

Taking Time

Wow! God has taught me to take time out of my busy schedule for others and also to spend with him or even time just to relax! I guess since this is Finals week I thought I was going to be more stressed going into finals because for me it's already Monday and I haven't studied yet, but I feel confident enough that I will do well. So yesterday I just chilled and relaxed and listened to some great Christian Music! So today I will get a great night sleep! We start at 10:20AM tomorrow!

In Control

Am I in control of myself? Can I control my feelings? I guess today I realized how I was when I was little. There was this family that signed up for daycamp today. The little boy was like myself. Ever since Preschool to the end of my 4th grade year I would throw this big tantrum so I wouldn't have to go to school. I would kick and scream. I even broke a few things and others too went out of control of me.

God has been the stronghold for me through thick and thin.

Here Today and Gone Tomorrow

Life comes and goes. The ones we love leave and the ones that are gone are etched into our minds.

I often wonder so who's going to be at my high school and college graduation..Will I even still be alive? Will my grandpa be there to watch me get my diploma or walk the aisle? Will my dad be there to see me recieve my diploma or walk me down the aisle?

Who's going to be there?? Will I be there? Will my friends be there? The ones that have supported me through everything? Hmm....

I often think or wonder why isn't mom going to be their? Do I even remember her at my preschool graduation?

Well God knows who will be or won't be...if I'm alive still or will I be with him....

Live It Out

I guess many of you guys know I went to a Youth Retreat. On the Thursday before I came down with a pretty bad cold. I didn't know what to do I was all stressed out with everything going on. Then on Saturday someone else happened...So I was like oh, boy. But, I chose to sleepover anyways. It was all good.

This week softball has been funny. But today I was pitcher what I learned was you have to be very constant with your pitches.

Same with the consistancy with God. If something is in the way or is in the road you can't just say oh that is a obstacle and let it be. You have to work your way through. Like I've been working my way to different positions in softball like 2nd and 1st base and now pitcher! Also last week God taught me also to prepare my heart more than ever.

Pain and Endurance

Today I learned about pain and endurance. It wasn't as much as Christ had to endure but it was about 0%. Today we had to move things from the field. As we did so I got most of the weight of one of the structures. I thought to myself. Wow this is what Christ had to endure but more! Christ endured the pain for our lives. He took away that sin so we wouldn't have to suffer. It's so easy to say that we have so much pain, but in reality there are others that have it way worst then us. They also show the edurance. For me I ask God for my edurance. My pain wasn't sacrificial but I felt the weight and the burden of those not helping me. As times we too are in situations of pain and we too have to endure, the best people to have on ourside are God and your friends. Your friends will stand by, and God will always stand by watching, but also helping!
