I Wonder What God Has To Say?

Well, my solo song went good..... i guess! I lost tempo in the middle of the song. But the second song was great! I was wishing that i could do it over & do it better. But by 5th period i felt better! I started thinking that God is probally proud that i got up there on the alter & sang of him! I only got one day to learn the song! But still if i could do it over i would! I will get some kind of a second chance, i'm sure. I herd the feed-back of my voice i have to admit i did.... sorta....kinda.... sound....good. However i couldn't of done it without the prayers & the powers of the Lord! Thanks guys! :)

Choir

Well, yesterday i tried out for choir...i made it...the teacher said i was "Great"... But now i found out i am singing at church on Wensday by my self... with no one else... ALONE! I got a note today at school & i just gave it to my mom.

"You just went to a new school for a week, and now you have to sing infront of them all! hehe"
-Gretchen Huijskens :)

Yeah. I kinda nervous. Prayers are welcome!

Whoa!

Can you believe it? Three Angels as found homes for many, many children! I mean TACR has saved a lot of lives! This whole Haiti thing, as i have said before, has seriously changed my life! I have written & gave about 7 speeches on Haiti & some other kids. I have meet people i would of never meet with out being a part in Three Angels. Haiti has opened my eyes, I've gone from naive to grateful!

I mean just giving a child a home!







It isn't it amazing?! Don't you just feel like falling to your knees & praising God?! Jumping for joy??!

Byron Keith

Gail has gotten my mom & i completely hooked on Byron Keith. "More like You" is not my favorite Byron song but i love it. It is also the song thats plays while Michelle is talking on the TACR DVD! Correct me on the lyrics if i am wronge, (i couldn't find it on the internet). Sutton or Kynsley can help. :)

Broken I lay at your feet
Praying “Lord please rescue me”
From all of my sins
So I can be more… like You
Lord give me courage to stand,
To not be ashamed of whose it am
Child of the King
I want to be more like You
(More like You)

More like You, More like You
More like You, More like You

But give me strength, to fight
To show others love through Your life
To help them draw near,
Some they can be more like You
(More like You)

More like You, More like You
More like You, More like You
More like You, More like You
More like You, More like You

More like You

I am going to BLOW!

I miss Haiti soooo much. It has been forever since i have been there! And now that i know i am going down again, i'm just craving that country! I don't even care any more that it is a third world country & it has all the features to go with it! I honestly do not care. I actually wish i could be older so i could move down there. And I know this is coming from a girl who loves staying at 5 star hotels but i love Haiti! I wish to live down there & do medical stuff on sick Haitians, (and yes, i realize that doesn't sound very professional). I have been praying & thinking about it & i really feel like i am being called by God to work toward that. I am looking for little ways to work on it. My mom even suggested that i find some Red Cross program or something. She might of meant it sarcastically but i am serious! You can not see it but this face of mine is a serious face! And reading every one's blogs helps too! I can hold on until July but, i just couldn't hold it in any longer!

Good Bye Texas!!!

So far on our "so exciting" road trip to Florida it takes about a state per day (discounting stops at hotels, but Texas is a WHOLE different story!!! Finally we are on our way OUT of Texas!!! I know this is not the kind of thing i would put on my blog but i am sooooo relived! Praise the Lord!!! Oh, and YEEHHAA!!!

Can you see Him?

Yesterday, on our fun road trip to Florida, we stopped at Joshuah Tree National Park. Harry was sure if God would be seen in a rock form this is what He would look like:

Neena

After reading every ones comments on my last entry i started thinking ...again. What possible reasons could the Lord have by taking me away from my home & friends? But as you might know i not really one who doubts our God (well offen). And as i started think i actually thought of a few. But my most practical one was Neena. Neena is my best friend & has been since we were infants. She will be living about an hour & 15 minutes away from us. Neena's parents have no overall religious believe. My mom & i have been talking & slowly trying to merge God into her life with out over whelming her. And as Christians it is hard to just say " OK Lord i have faith in you." And i think bringing me closer to Haiti & her might be a way to make Neena a believer. If i could just get Neena to Haiti. Haiti & i as a team would open her eyes to just how awesome our God is. And would invite her to the bible studies at St. Joseph's. I what so much to have my best friend a believer & another person helping the people of Haiti. I am praying hard! Now the hard part is getting her down to Haiti.
