seriously?

i just finished this blog.. went to preview it... and deleted the whole thing! wow... my luck!

well anyways..

it's monday.. but it hasn't been as terrible as i thought it would be :)
i woke up way too early.. went to school... went to walmart with my best budy kels for Miracle Madness face painting supplies..came home.. then went to praise team!

Miracle Madness is a fall festival that we are (SGA) putting on for anyone who has ever been involved in Children's Miracle Network.. all of the proceeds go directly to CMN to purchase equipment for their facilities. be praying that this goes well and we can raise a lot of money for this organization!

i'm currently listening to Kari Jobe. you probably haven't heard of her before.. but she is stinkin amazing. every note she sings is so annointed.. i hope to be half the artist that she is someday!

i have been speaking to a producer in Nashville recently... his name is Mitch Dane. he has worked with jj heller, jars of clay, bebo norman and many others... i will be sending off my demo to him in the next couple of weeks. keep your fingers crossed ;) i would more than love to minister to people through music in that kind of way..


this weekend was full of college things.. applying for schools and essays..and recommendations.. it's just the beginning though! i am applying for Southeastern University, Lee University, Atlanta Christian College, and CSU. seu is my top pick.. i have always always wanted to go there.. my grandfather did a bunch of work down at seu, therefore it's always been a college that my family has kept in their thoughts.. its so far from home but im kinda ready to get out there.. experience life and see what all God has in store for me. i am SO EXCITED to see what the Lord has in store..

im gonna go now cause my fingers are killing me and i know you're probably tired of reading :)

im going to leave you with some lyrics that have really touched me. i hope they will do the same for you! i hope everyone has a blessed week full of wonderful things!! love you all. thanks for reading!

The more i seek you,
the more i find you
The more i find you, the more I love you

I wanna sit at your feet
drink from the cup in your hand.
Lay back against you and breath, here your heart beat
This love is so deep, it's more than I can stand.
I melt in your peace, it's overwhelming
Kari Jobe

i love sundays..

this weekend has been so so good. i really needed this time to just breathe!!


Sundays seem to be the most relaxing days of the week. You can just rest and anticipate how crazy the week ahead is going to be...

peace is starting to overflow in my life... everyday. i'm learning to LET GO AND LET GOD.

when you give everything over to the Lord and allow HIM to have complete control over EVERYTHING he will bless your life. you may not see it in full at first, but each day something new will unfold. this doesn't mean that life is going to be perfect. but it does mean that someone is holding your hand through it all.

so i go into this week with high hopes and strong faith. knowing that God walks before me and behind me. knowing that i am cherished and loved and there is NO fear for the unknown because my God holds my hand and loves me even at my weakest.

so maybe there's someone out there that needed this too, just like i did. stay strong and keep moving forward :)

PS. FIREPROOF IS THE BEST MOVIE EVER!! it will touch you BIG time. GO SEE IT!

so i decided..


instead of spending countless hours on the computer doing absolutely NOTHING.. maybe i should do something 'productive' while spending countless hours on the computer :)

i'll be talking about what goes on in my life on the days that i post. therefore, you can see into my life and i can keep up with what goes on as well! sometimes things get so crazy, i forget what i did the day before. lol

today is thursday. that means that the weekend is almost here. thank you Lord. this week..man, it's only by the grace of God that i have almost made it through. just a little more to go!

i had to be at school today at 7:30 for praise team because its chapel day! we did the happy song and give us clean hands. during the transition of the 2 songs i read Matthew 5:8. it talked about those who have a pure heart shall see God. and i talked about how you will gain a free heart when you devote yourself fully to Christ. not just parts of your life, but EVERY part. it really feels like i spoke to my own heart more than it may have touched others. but God worked through it.. i have faith that He did...

so after chapel i continued going to classes then headed to the Columbus trade center where we (HS choir) practiced for our performance tonight. we are singing at the annual fund dinner! woo! should be really good :)

so i went to see mom and got some quiznos and headed back home to here, on this computer. lol.
i should be gettin ready for tonight......pshh.. ;)

im praying this weekend will be the SLOWEST one ever. only because i need the rest. my poor eyes are so swollen and have bags due to lack of sleep, stress, saddness, and EXHAUSTION..

my DEMO CD is almost compete! just have to get some CDs copied and my cover printed! if you want one, just let me know. they're free!

i dont know if this post is a downer or whatnot but i'm dealing with a lot right now and would REALLY appreciate your prayers. God is dealing with my heart and i know i don't have it as bad as some people, so i don't talk about my problems... but i'd really appreciate if you just kept me in your thoughts and prayers for clarity, joy, and peace..

anyways.. i need to go get dressed for this evening! feel free to comment ;)

you'll hear from me soon..
