Summer Bummer

OK so I have been super bored the last couple days. Sunday was fun though, I went to the movies and hung out with friends the entire day. Then yesterday we basically just hung around the house and played rock band and watched movies and then today was a reapeat. Tonight we have a meeting thing at church about a black light song we are going to do in front of the church. Then after that we are going to go pray for the up coming youth camp in august. So at least I get out of the house.

Taking care of business

My mom had surgery yesterday. They always say the second day is the hardest. Today, like most days, we were on the go. I wasn't about to let her drive so I drove all over the place, to school, starbucks, my friends house, and to the library. It was fun. I played guitar hero and rock band with one of my friends from school. In between songs we talked about stuff like next school year and summer plans. It was fun. I miss like all my friends from school. I have really enjoyed my new quiet time book. Its short, one verse, one quote, and little thought about it. I am of course reading Oswald too. The Friday we got home from camp I prayed that God would change my life this summer and I can feel him working already. I have been listening to more worship music, I have actually been having quiet time, and He makes me want more from His Word. I am looking forward to youth camp. God really changed my life then and He keeps little by little doing more and more. Its awesome.

New Devo

Like I said yesterday i got a new devo book. Its called 5 minutes with God or something a long those lines. I started last night and it talked about how we should always be able to make time to talk with God. After i finished reading that i thought about the different excuses that I make up of why i didn't spend time with God that day. It was either i had a busy day or i watched tv all day or i was on the computer the whole day. Then today I was reading it and it talked about trust in the Lord with all your heart which of course came from Proverbs 3. Sometimes I think we forget that verse. I know for me i can sometimes only see the negatives in a situation and not see how God is working in the situation at all. But those verses, something that they used to tell the gophers at church, is just to trust God to know what He is doing.

Busy Day

Today was totally busy. Some things I knew I would have to do were to clean my room, do some laundry, turn in money for my oklahoma trip and go to the orthodontist. But the unexcepted happened and my day got some more things added to the list of things to do. Justin had to go to UNF to get some book for his economics class which took like 5 years to accomplish. Their campus is big to say the least. You have to get a parking pass to be able to park which is ok but if you only are going to be there for maybe 20 minutes why should you pay 3 bucks you know? So anyways, we took a while trying to find a parking spot that wouldn't get us a ticket. So to shorten that down we got the book and then we're off to the town center to Life Way. I have been wanting a new devo book so i went looking for a new one. Don't get me wrong I love Oswald but i wanted something to add to it. I found a book for like 5 bucks so i have high hopes for it. About this time it was lunch time where we went to McDonald's and how to pay an "eat in tax". Justin and I didn't see the point in an eat in tax but whatever... The later part of the day was spent going to get my retainer checked out, returning something, starbucks, getting a shot, and a walmart run. Its about 6:30 and i think we are going to go do the prayer thing for kd.

Today

Today was father's day as most everybody knows. As I have gotten older my relationship with my dad has changed. When I was younger I always wanted to hang out with my dad and everything. Then I went through that stage where you think that your dad is the biggest loser! Sorry daddy!! But these past few weeks I have really realized what a good dad he is and how much he cares for my family. So this father's day I feel especially thankful for the dad God has blessed me with.
