Things I've been learning ....

1) God turns what you think is impossible possible. These past couple of days, I was so sure that I was really going to have my "bad days" but God has His way of doing something to brighten it up .... whether it be a friendly conversation or a day where I don't have any homework and the day has turned completely upside down.

2) I've listened to a lot of sermons and some over again so I can fully understand. I'm trying to listen to all of the "Code Orange" sermons from each night with Elevation Church. They're so great! I was reminded that it's not about me. Often times, I drift from the reminder that it's not about me and shouldn't be. As it says in John 3:30, He must become greater and I must become less. Matt Chandler referred to the time that your frustration kicks because you're stuck in traffic ... your frustrated because "it's about you" ... or perhaps when you're nervous about giving a message ... 'cause "it's all about you" ...

Things on my mind ...
- I should write in my journals more ....
- I have so many things to do still ... 1)find a job 2)sign up for SATs 3)take SATs 4)begin applying for colleges 5)senior dues ---- those are the kinda long term things.
- Fall's comin' and I'm so excited. Dressing in layers and feelin' the cold. Darker colors and beautifully scented candles!

Anyway! That's it!
