now dont say that

okay,so today i am getting ready in my room and turn on the radio.
and an advertisement comes on.
" GET READY FOR THE ROCK AND ROLL MARIACHI FESTIVAL! MUSIC, FOOD, AND RIDES. THATS RIGHT THE ROCK AND ROLL MARIACHI FESTIVAL!"
yeah....

i still dont know whether it horrifies me, or amuses me. i think its a combination of both.
horrifingly amusing.

only in el paso.

thats MEIN pop

Proverbs 31_30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.

this is what i want to be.

you walk funny.

im in texas again.
its good to be back, and to see my family, lauren came with mom and the girls to pick me up, and it was great to see all their sweet faces.

i cannot believe how blessed i am. i just got back from an amazing trip to see those stellar people the sczebels, and i came here to see my family, my church, my friends.
God has blessed me with the most faithful people surrounding me. Friends and family who are honest with me, and who will bring correction and encouragement. The kind that tell you that your outfit that day is hideous and it looks like i just got out of bed, but that can also bring evidences of grace to you.I've done nothing todeserve these blessings, and the incredible blessing of salvation.
God is so good. Even when things arent going exactly the way i want them to, He is so good. And im off so much better than i deserve.
It just blows my head. Im here, a sinner who deserves to burn in hell forever, and I'm saved from that. He saved me, and im going to spend eternity worshipping Him, and ill never leave.

I cant thank God enough.

And i just want to say thank you to my friends. You are great, and a huge blessing in my life.
I cant wait to see everyone here, and read books with lisps.
And Als, Josh, Joe, Kara, Tina, Seaniqua, Jess.love you. I miss you all a ton. Thanks for the memories.
Smile.

HOLLER.

Last nite we watched Miss Potter.
great movie.

It feels sort of like a lighter version on Finding Neverland (ricky.)

I dont know if I'm just biased because she is Beatrix Potter, and i love beatrix potter.
I grew up reading her books, i had animated films of Jemima Puddleduck and Peter Rabbit and i watched them more times than was probably good for me.
So it brought back a lot of memories. Asking Mom for bread, and milk, and blueberries for dinner, so i could be like Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cottontail.
It was great. I had dad read them to me so many times, over and over. I think my favorite was the one about the hedgehog. But i cant remember the storys name.
Go read some Beatrix Potter, because its great.

I'll probably get greif for this post.

4 days.

and i saw the oysters walking.

'When we love someone,we study them. We find their likes and dislikes.Whats his favorite movie? What is her favorite quote? This is what we do with God, we need to study Him, honour Him with things that He loves, and cease doing what displeases Him.
We wouldnt go up to someone we love and slap their face.
But when we think " i know im not supposed to do this. Its displeasing to God...but...what harm is it really going to do?" Its slapping His precious face.
We need to study Him constantly, always looking for ways to please Him, and fighting temptation.
Colossians 1: 10 "... so as to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God."
