Relying on God has to start all over everyday., as if nothing has yet been done.

How can something or someone like life or God be so simple yet so perplex at the same time?
and love,... love is so simple because you don't have to do anything to fall in love but then again it's perplexing because how do you know if you're REALLY in love?
or trusting God to get you through tough times, it would be really easy to just have enough faith to say " God, I completely trust you and I know that you'll get me through this" but as humans our nature is to want to do everything on our own I mean people consider it a weakness to not be able to do something without help but sometimes it shows TRUE strength to ask for help whether it be God's help or another humans help.
I know I personally struggle with being considered either emotionally or physically "weak" I absolutely HATE it when I can't pick up a hundred pound bag of sand that my brothers can pick up like it's a feather I wish I could do everything that guys can do BUT I know God created the man to be the physically stronger sex even though I may deny it sometimes I do know it's true.
I also hate going through trials like right now I'm going through something that is seriously testing the little patience I do have and (hopefully) giving me a lot more patience it's also testing my anger (because I have a BAD temper)and also it is taking a lot of my strength I have to have prayer time every couple of days just to make it through and I hate being tested like this but I know God does it for a purpose and that I'm gonna come out of it a much better person and that to get through it I need to F.R.O.G. (Fully Rely On God).
Well I'm gonna go pray and try to find some strength for the next couple of days.


Go: have fun, be happy, praise God :)

Hey guys,
I know I haven't written in a long time but here I am!!
So what's happened since Campus Challenge? Well I went with Katie,April,Julia,Ben,Brooke,and Mom to a Newsboys concert at Alabama Adventure and we had an amazing time! It was one of the best days of the whole summer!
I started 9th grade and I LOVE being in highschool it's great! My subjects are: algebra (Saxon algebra 1), geography (just a workbook), biology (apologia), history (streams of civilazation), grammar (I have no idea), and reading (I finished Tom Sawyer and now I'm reading To Kill A Mockingbird).
Wednesday was Brandon's birthday he's now 6 and it's really wierd! I've been through a lot of emotional stuff this summer but were not gonna talk about that right now.
Today in church I went and learned the media for the back screen at church it's pretty easy and im excited about doing it (for real) the 19th and then I went to help in childrens church for the kickoff with the newly redone kids spot! It was so much fun! Good job Miss Lynne and Pastor John and worship team (Ben,April,and Dusten)!
Next Sunday is Katie and I's friendaversary and we will have known each other for 3 years! I'm really excites to celebrate it!
Sunday September 12th is the start of small groups at church and I'm really excited they were supposed to start today but Wes got sick so yeah......
Are you still reading this?
Well STOP!!
Go have fun, be happy, praise God!!

Camp!

Camp,
it was amazing in all ways it was amazing......
The worship was the best i've ever been to.
I didn't like the speaker very much but I loved the messages.
the games were fun just not for me.
the view was great (the real view and the boys Katie)
We met the guys on Tuesday they gave us there phone numbers by writing them in the sand and then we kept talking to them because there room was right next to ours it was so fun!
and then another guy gave us his friends number! haha! it was great! :)
I am going to start working on being a better daughter by having a better attitude and not having to be told twice and stuff like that. That is my goal after a week at an amazing camp!
I realized just how much I love to worship God!
I want to do that with my life.......

TTYL,Xandra
