SNOW DAY~ and other stuff...lots of stuff

Hello ~

It has been a while .....I think this is becoming my ritual statement. I have had no time to just sit and write. We had a snow-day today and I was in heaven! I went to bed like a little child giggling at the thought of the snow packing on the ground up to 5 inches.....and we got it alright! I awoke to a wonderland of white and the greatest news....NO SCHOOL! I love my job however, and I missed my kids and new mini-tutor session that I just started Monday but the break was just fine as well. I CLEANED, CLEANED, and well CLEANED! It felt nice to re-arrange my ever so small living space(I have alot of stuff to fit into a bedroom!). I washed all of my clothes...kudos for that because I have been slacking on my duties! I am all up to speed now and look forward to tomorrow and the rest of the week. It is gonna be a short one for me! I will be leaving town on Thursday after school to go home for a wedding in Frisco. Totally this week I will have worked 3 whole days... what a life! I am happy to be going home for a few days. I miss my family and I get to see some good friends. Speaking of friends, Hello :) if you are reading Amy and Kin-Kai~ and whoever else.

I miss you....

I have been spending alot of time thanking God for what He has given me and what He is doing. He has got something so great I can hardly wait for it! In a way it is very exciting but in a way I am nervous! There are so many things that He has kept from me for a purpose and I know because of His great love and His promises that one day soon He will lay them before me as He feels necessary. Just for grins, I will get a husband, and a home, and some kids, and a calling from God...is that worth being super excited about? YES but at the same time, I wonder if I am adequate enough or even ready for those earthly things. One thing I do know is, I am always ready to hear the instruction of my Daddy, God, and humbly lay down my "self" to follow His lead. I have some big decisions to make here in the next few days and months.

I have been asked to lead children's church worship and I am most likely going to do that. I love music and children so what better combination could I get!

I have also been asked to do a prophetic sing-style skit when the time arises where I will basically let the Lord lead my words and beat for the moment where people on the street or wherever we decide to do this can just let the Lord speak to them and work in their hearts. I have never done this type of thing but I know God has put it in me to sing for His glory and well, I am gonna do it with all that is within me.

I may go to Scotland for some ministry work as well. That is in July. I have been seeking the Lord's guidance for this one. We will see how it all pans out.

Last but not least, APARTMENT!!! I may get an apartment come the start of the new school year in August. This brings all sorts of emotions into play! I will be on my own...a place I really am not too fond of but I need to experience. I will mke my own decisions, decorate how I want to , and finally HAVE ENOUGH SPACE FOR ALL OF MY STUFF! (and not to mention, have room for guests!) I am so BLESSED to be kept by my aunt and uncle right now as I wait on the Lord's calling for me but the time is coming near that I get out on my own. I always wanted to officially leave home when I got married but that wasn't in God's plan I guess. However, He does know best so when the time comes for all of these decisions, I will know!

I hope all of you have had time to thank God for His mercy and love. He is soooo good!

I love you all but HE loves you more!
