1. I underestimated this apple I ate this morning. It turned to be a lot better than I expected. ;)
2. This week will be busy, but I think I'll be okay because I know that a lot of things are coming to an end. I think I'm always so busy looking at the end of the tunnel, but in between it all, I don't realize the content.
3. Last week was a bad week of eating and no exercise and no devotion. This week will be different.
4. Yup, plans are to get lots of things done this week ... that includes cleaning my room because it just gets so messy so easily. haha.

Saviour, He can move the mountains. My God is mighty to save!
I visited my sister's church today and a boy I met on Saturday sang this song. Everything about him was so encouraging - when you're madly in love with God, you can tell. This boy was.
What a good reminder to myself.What a much needed Sunday to just go and visit another church and see everything that's the Lord is doing in other places. So refreshing!
In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your Heavenly Father. -Matthew 5:16

My oh my. I am so wiped out and tired. This week has been the longest and it's not over yet. *Cries ... Just one more day, but I feel like crap and I just want to give up and I just want to stop. This day was just messy and boy am I glad that it's over. I know it's so sad to think like that sometimes. :P
My mind is all over the place. Such last minute things going on and so many things to do before school's over. I don't want to think about it anymore. :(
I always say this ... but I'm gonna say it again. I'm SO glad that at the end of the day, it all comes down to Jesus. At the end of the day, it's always about Him. And how glad I am to worship Him! I predicted a tough week and behold, it's been tough ---- but God knew that too and He's walking me through. Oh, what joy!
... anyway, I should really get going because it's late and I'm still debating if I should exercise. Maybe not, huh? I think I'm just gonna sleep early tonight and plan weekend "things to do" tomorrow or something and not worry. :) ... an exercise in the morning or something. We'll see.
Seek His will in all you do and He will show you which path to take. -Proverbs 3:6

My mornings have been starting later and later each day, but I am completely okay with that. It's a normal thing, okay? Today was just an extremely wonderful day! Seriously, when you're keeping your eyes focused on the Lord and His plans, things go amazingly well. I started off with a nice workout which lasted approximately 30 minutes or so. Workouts in the mornings are so nice! I love being able to say that I already worked out .... my workouts consists of high knees, jogging in place, jumping jacks, push ups ... the easy stuff. ;) Then I made my breakfast. I think cutting the apples, making the tea, boiling the eggs, and toasting the bread ... took about hrm, 1 HOUR! haha. Maybe I'm exaggerating, but putting effort into the presentation of your foods takes time. But I loved the fact that I was able to eat a "well-made" meal. It was a whole lot more fun, I must say. And when you do things like that, it takes it and puts it all into a new perspective. I really enjoyed breakfast this morning. :)
A friend that I just met asked me what I thought my spiritual gifts were ... and I ain't gonna lie. I had to refresh myself with what any spiritual gifts were. But I came to this conclusion that hey, God gave me to give to encourage! Actually, I think anyone has the gift to encourage! When I think of encouragement, I think of being a blessing in someone else's life. Have you ever just planned to be a blessing? I think we could all plan to be a blessing in others' lives in so many ways, whether that be buying a person a snack or sending something over to someone. Anything. Today, I received this cute little card from a wonderful friend of mine. It's honestly the little things, guys. She lives in the same state and the fact that she would want to send it to me instead of just giving it to me means that much more.
And lastly, this picture is before I went in for my interview today. Man, how thankful I am for an interview! Just the interview itself. God is so amazing, you guys. And I couldn't be happier for the opportunity. As you can tell on my face below. ;)
God is so amazing and my heart is just so overwhelmed by His love! There are no words.
Seriously, my heart feels like it's going to explode because for the first time, if not for the first time in a long time, I'm really starting to feel God pour immensely into this day of mine. What an awesome day it was, man.
Jesus Calling | April 11th
This is the day that I have made. Rejoice and be glad in it. Begin the day with open hands of faith, ready to receive all that I am pouring into this brief portion of your life. Be careful not to complain about anything, even the weather, since I am the Author of your circumstances. The best way to handle unwanted situations is to thank Me for them. This act of faith frees you from resentment and frees Me to work My ways into the situation, so that good emerges from it. To find joy in this day, you must live within its boundaries. I knew what I was doing when I divided time into twenty-four-hour segments. I understand human frailty, and I know that you can bear the weight of only one day at a time. Do not worry about tomorrow or get stuck in the past. There is abundant Life in My presence today.
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus ... how good You are that You would choose to know me!
It rained today. It rained and the nasty and much hated pollen is gone. How can we not be thankful for such things? Can we just stop and ... yeah. What a refreshment!
Jesus, only Jesus.
