Random Wednesday

Good morning Friends!

Happy HUMPS Day!:)

Frustrations I have been experiencing: 

So for the last 2 1/2 weeks I have been battling it out with baby spiders living in my apartment; they must like it better than the dirt and shrubbery right outside my windows. It's quite unsettling to find tiny spiders in your bed RIGHT before you are going to sleep thinking "I can relax and get my beauty rest" - well nope that is not what I have been thinking these past couple weeks - - - -  MORE like "are they going to be crawling all over me while I sleep? What happens if they get in my ear and lay eggs? This is NOT good! Lord, please don't let any spiders crawl on me while I am in this bed! PLEASE!" Yes, that's better. I have killed at least 15! & my apartment has been sprayed 2X! I requested my building be sprayed as well - who knows if that has happened. I noticed an accumulation of them around my window sills! SO hopefully my "AHA!" moment has lead to the death or end of my living with baby spiders!

BRIGHT SIDE -- they are baby spiders not gargantuan and no cockroaches or anything else and they aren't in my kitchen! (yet...) God's got me, I'm tryin' not to trip.

Random Wednesday - I think will start to be my new posts for Wednesday! It will be something Random! LOL so stay tuned....

Today's Randomness =  Do you ever think, "who will I meet today, what is the purpose of meeting them, is God wanting me to do something for this person or is He placing them in my life for a reason?" - leave me a comment if you have something to share:)

TONIGHT is Flavour Influence Groups! - I have no idea what is instore or what we are going to do.... BUT I'm excited.

I must also study for my lab quiz on Thursday as well as my first test that is scheduled for Saturday - what fun!

Hope everyone's Wednesday is wicked!

Long Time No See... Happy Wed!

Shame on me! It's been a while since I have posted.... a couple new things have happened, an update is in order!!!! ;)

I started school since my last post, and man, Chemistry is just not something my brain is overjoyed to hear about.... when my professor is blathering on and on about atomic compounds, Dalton's Theories, Law of Definite Proportions and Law of Multiple Proportions and the difference between the two..... my mind just WANDERS..... it doesn't want to focus and make sense of what I am hearing, my mind wants to think about other important things, okay, STOP. My mind needs to focus and Chemistry is important. I have to figure out a way to make this exciting! So what am I going to do? You ask.... Well to be honest haven't got that far, just know that I need to like it and be excited about it. We have our first Lab Test Thursday, quiz AND Lab experiment over measure - we get to must wear goggles! Score. On that note, more to come after Thursday...

Last week my mothers mom turned a whopping 96 years young! I got to spend sometime with her on Friday/Saturday. It was a quick trip and I loved every minute I got to spend with her! Happy Birthday Alma Lee!

most of the ladies at the lunch! - we missed a few :)

Saturday evening was the kickoff and my first time as a volunteer at The MIX NEWERA, it used to be on Wednesday evenings but has now moved to Saturday evenings after the service! It's from 6-8pm and there are free snacks & drinks! It's an exciting time to be in the youth at Fellowship Church - Grapevine and all campuses! I am on the "connector crew" which means that I greet all incoming traffic and try to connect with youth that have not been to FC before and get them plugged in and possibly meet some new friends! Drew Nguyen and Derek Donley are the youth pastors and they are absolutely great!!!! I had such a awesome time meeting families and their middle schoolers!! (is that a word? oh well I'm using it)...I can't wait for this Saturday to see what God has in-store!!!!!! :) Definitely humbled by the experience. 

I had the opportunity of speaking to an ED PA-C at Children's because of a connection I had made through my current job and I hopefully will begin shadowing her starting next Wednesday! I am sooooo excited! :) I. CAN. NOT. WAIT.


Flavour Sisterhood is this evening at 7pm and I'm psyched! I haven't been going a lot because I have been in school but now that I have school only tues/thurs I can!! It's an hour of time where women can come together and worship the Lord! :)


Hope you all are having a wonderful week so far! It's almost Friday, we can make it. My verse today is: "I saw a scroll in the right hand of the One who was sitting on the throne. There was writing on the inside and the outside of the scroll, and it was sealed with seven seals." Revelation 5:1 - The Lord has secured our future. Amen! 

Happy Wednesday.

HUMP DAY

Well the week is almost half over, except, I'm thinking to myself "it's only Wednesday"...

On the school front,

We began module II (which is chapters for exam II) over the Heart, Blood Vessels and Lymphatic systems. So far, it has been very overwhelming - man, the Lord's an intricate guy. Every single thing in your body has a name, arteries, veins, my goodness. I knew, but I didn't know.

In other news,

I am on Day 3 of Soul Detox  Jeremiah 12:1-4, but I like to read the whole chapter to get perspective, sometimes the one before and after.

What I took away from this chapter: many people, myself included say they are "Christians" but don't always live according to the way the Bible says we should. We speak about God and talk about the great things He has done for us, or how He saved someone and with the same mouth - out comes a curse word or we gossip about somebody we don't even know, I think this could be a version what

"...You are ever on their lips, but far from their conscience" (Jeremiah 12:2) 

is saying, it could also mean people that are not saved and are not believers yet have knowledge of God but are not convicted to turn from their "worldly ways". I also think of it in this way, about a year ago I was on a horrible path, angry for a lot of reasons that I won't get into - thank you Lord for forgiveness and didn't want anything to do with the church, God, or any "Christian" friends. I was into drinking a lot, all the time and just didn't care about the consequences, yet I would still talk about God like I wasn't doing anything wrong to my "Christian" friends. I think that is definitely a version of this verse. The Lord has been working in my heart for a while and I want to be genuine, I want to be real, so that's why I thought I would share a little piece of my struggles I have been through. Now, just because I went through that year abandoning God, because that's exactly what I did, that is the greatest thing about Him - He will NEVER abandon me and will ALWAYS love me (and you, yes you!) & PRAISE Him that it doesn't mean I am no longer a child of God or a "Christian". Beyond thankful for Him that he accepts me as I am, my sinful, screw-up self and that I can come into His presence without fear of rejection. #shereadstruth

I will get off the soap box, or just my rambling mode now! 

ZUMBA tonight ;) it's one of my FAVORITE workouts! If you have yet to try it, get your butt to a class! You will not regret it, unless you don't like to dance, then fine be a party pooper.

Also, this weekend on Sunday is one of my very good friends birthdays - I hope to share in her celebration this weekend, only if I study a lot prior! #crossingmyfingers #igotthis

XOXO,
