HELLO July!

Its July. Half way through 2011. I dont have a lot to show for the last 6months which is bad on me but...we can take a breather and look back at some things I wanted to do and try and get back to it.

1. Memorize two verses a month...well I was doing really well and if I got a little behind I could catch up. Lets just say I dont think I can catch up from not memorizing verses since April 1st...So We will start with July 1st...just skipped a few crazy months...

2.Read! I need some good books to read (anyone want to offer suggestions?). I wanted to read even more than last year (cause it is a treat once you are out of school and dont have to read for class).

3. Praying! praying more about what God cares about. I know he cares about me but praying for others more intentionally as well as cultivating those relationships...Choosing not to worry but to pray cause we are commanded "DO NOT be anxious".
(The thought of having to move again is great (Texas has yet to really grow on me) BUT having to find a job all over again...not so fun![even if its a year from now])

4. I also want to not complain so much about my life. God always provides and I need to live in today even if my heart is waiting for tomorrow. God knows the desires of my heart and I do believe he has placed them there.

I think that is enough to do and work on and be intentional about...

July happenings so far:
Blessed by people giving money for me to go to Haiti....107 days to go...

4th of July weekend was spent eating! Eating wonderfully delicious peaches, cobbler and homemade ice cream! So YUMMY :) And enjoying a break!
