SLOW DOWN!!!!

Holy cow! Its almost the end of July!! My life has been so crazy. I worked all through June, then have been running around all through July. I went to Oklahoma with my boyfriend and his family for their cousins wedding. We had a blast! It was a lot of fun getting to know his family better. Then I had summer camp which was absolutely amazing! God is getting ready to do some amazing things in this world and I can't wait to be a part of it all! This week I have orientation for school and I'm going on family vacation. The thing that stinks is my boyfriend and I won't see each other for two weeks. He is on vacation now and gets back the day afer I leave! Oh well, there is nothing we can do about it.

Something weird is going on with me. Lately I've really been thinking about the future and who I'm going to be. I really really want to have a family. I can't wait to be married, have children, and cook meals for them. I don't want to give up on my dreams, but I think I may be reshaping my dreams a little. I also have to realize that marriage and family are still a few years down the line. I'm not completely ready to be married now. There is still a single independant woman inside of me and she is not ready to settle down. I think I'm just getting excited about what possibilites the future holds. I know that as long as I cling tightly to God, live by faith, and just keeping running, He will lead me in the right direction!

Verse of the day: Heb. 12:1-3 "Therefore, sicne we are surronded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfector of our faith, who for the joy sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart."
