Here's What's up

I had a great week last week. Refuge began again. Jason talked on the series Everyone and what would happen if everyone prayed, fasted, read the Bible, etc. I also got out of school 15 min. early on Wednesday because of block scheduling. Then on Thursday I got off a school half day because of teacher meetings, I think. I came home and just relaxed, which was really nice. On Thursday Jason, Khira, and Kirk came over to my house to eat supper. We had a lot of fun playing Guitar Hero and hanging out. On Friday I was off of school due to teacher meetings as well. I had to clean house, and then I went to my friend's sweet 16 birthday party. On Saturday I went to medical outreach with Healing Hands at Healing Place at about 7:15 am. It was awesome, as usual. I love serving there. After, we proceeded to my house and hung out for a while while Jason ATTEMPTED to fix my PC. Then we went to church, and after service we went to see Cloverfield. It was an ok movie, but much better because I went with all my friends. On Sunday Jason ACTUALLY fixed my PC after 4 hours of long, tedious work. Then we went to play cards at Seth Rougon's (however you spell that) house. On Monday we all went to play Laser Tag and eat at Burger King. That was me, Khira, Jason, Kirk, my brother Christian, Seth, Simone, Suzy, Phill, Heather, Andye, Jake, and I'm still probably missing someone. lol We had tons of fun on our long weekend. Then this week has been ordinary, doing school and stuff like that. Service was awesome on Wednesday! Jason talked about living out communion and not just receiving it and actually pouring your life out for people. Worship, service, and the missionary from Swaziland were all incredible. So....sorry it was lengthy. I'm also super excited that we have, yet another, long weekend after this coming week for Mardi Gras (we are so special living in the only state that celebrates it!!!) I'll see y'all people soon!!!

How Bout Those Tigers???!!!

Last night's game was awesome! We're now the only SEC team to have won two national championships!!! It's pretty incredible. I'm not sure if either team played to the level they could have played to, but we pulled out a WIN! I'm very excited, and I know all y'all Tiger fans are too. It was even better cause Jason and Khira were at my house watching the game with me. We had a lot of fun! We need to have one of these national championships with our LSU Tigers in it every year. Also, please keep Jason and Khira's mom is y'all's prayers. She is having surgery this week in Houston. So...that's about it and of course remembering to pray for this family is way more important than football. That's about it. I'll see y'all at church tomorrow.

So...It's Life

I've been kind of bored the last couple of days. After Christmas my family came to visit, and they stayed for about 5 days. It went pretty well. We went and visited my great-grandmother in Mobile, Alabama. Then we hung out at my house for a few days. We went to see "I am Legend." I was very scared, but it was a very good movie. I was covering my eyes through much of the movie.

Then on Tuesday of this week, I went to spend some time with the Guidry family. I had a lot of fun! We played plenty of video games. I did very poorly on most of the games, but I still enjoyed playing. Me hand started cramping up after a while. I totally enjoyed it! I can't wait to go hang out with them more in the future.

Then last night was pretty crazy. I got very upset because I wanted some attention from somebody that I wasn't getting. It was pretty stupid, but it still upset me. I don't know what the problem was. It kind of added to not being able to get my permit because of a lack of time yesterday even after waiting at the DMV for an hour. So, yesterday was a little bit crazy.

Then today I find out one of my dad's friends wants me to babysit this weekend. The weird part is that he thinks I'm mean or something, according to my dad. I have no clue. I never really talk to him when I see him. So, I guess he takes it personally. I don't mean for it to be that way though. So, all this had made me pretty upset. I've been struggling just to know who I am in Christ. It's hard when you're trying to accept things about yourself that you don't feel others accept. It's very frustrating. Well, that's about it. I'm sorry it's kind of depressing. I just felt like writing about it since it's been on my mind. I'll talk to you people soon. Love y'all!

So...NY, home alone, guys, etc.

So, I'm sure you're wondering about my title. My life has been crazy. I had nine weeks exams this past week, which I'm glad to report I did well on all of them that I'm aware of. I'm sooooo glad it's over. God definitely gets the glory for those tests scores. Anyway, my parents left for New York, New York on Thursday and my mom had the flu and was pretty sick. As far as I know they had a good time, but I haven't talked to them much. They are presently in a hotel in Atlanta because of missing their flight because of bad weather when leaving New York. So I was home for a while alone, but thankfully my uncle came to get me. In the mean time of being home I decided to call someone who had texted me earlier in the day. It was a crazy conversation. I told him exactly how I felt about the way he has been acting and so forth. He felt really bad, and I know I probably should feel guilty as well, and I kind of do. It's crazy I feel bad for telling him the things I don't approve of and how some things he did made me assume things that led me to act the way I have. I also told him I've messed up as well and told him how. So bottom line, I'm super open about his wrong and mine and we're giving each other Christmas gifts tomorrow and I feel guilty. So, I know it makes no sense, but it's my life and it's awesome. (except for dealing with guys!!! lol) So I need prayer about dealing with this guy stuff. I'll see you people after Christmas.

The Push to Post...

Well, some people are getting impatient. So, I'm posting just for them. Well I had a great weeekend. I spent Friday afternoon at Phill LeBlanc's house celebrating his 18th Birthday with some of his friends. I enjoyed acting crazy and that no one even cared. I just was myself, which most people don't even know I can be anything but serious. You're wrong! I can be a little silly at times. Then on Sunday I was helping with the outreach at Winbourne. We had so much fun. We handed out pamplets for the Christmas party they're are having on the 15th. We also just talked to the people. It was awesome! I think sometimes I get more from outreach than the so called "needy" people. I can be needy sometimes, ya know? lol After that I went and ate and went to the movies with Blake and Candice. We saw Enchanted. It was really good. Then I got the pleasure of "watching" LSU beat Tennessee and THEY ARE NOW GOING TO THE NATIONAL CHAMOPINSHIP!!!!!! GO TIGERS! I'm a little excited. On Sunday I went to church and spent my day doing chores, homework, and talking to my friends. Now it's time for me to get my head back in the game though since it's Monday. I need to get my 95 A averages up. lol So, life is good. I can't wait for Refuge and then our Closer Christmas party and hangin' with my best friends of all time. Y'all are awesome!!!

Today...I was Fired up!!!

Well today I was at school, of course. I started talking to Matt Lebrun, a friend of mine from Refuge. He was telling me how some of our friends aren't talking to him because of some stupid stuff. I got really upset and the Holy Ghost like totally took over. It was awesome. I started to tell them something that has been on my heart. I was like I am so sick of people fighting and being against each other as Christians. I said it's not about Refuge or about Uprising or FCA or ANYTHING else. It's about Christ. It's not who went to what party and if they should of or not. It's all about us working together and not only holding hands with our Christian friends but locking arms with them like Mike Haman said. It's about us joining together as one, as ONE body of Christ. It's not about schools or religions or churches. NONE of that matters. We are called to be WARRIORS for Christ. How can we make a difference in our schools or our generation when we're divided? That's totally the devil! He'll do anything to get us distracted, probably over stupid stuff. I'm so tired of it. God has been showing me that lately. I don't care who you are but if you're about Christ you're part of the ARMY. We HAVE to work together. It's not a choice. We are just snowflakes that melt alone, but together we can stop traffic and shut down schools and stuff. We were called for such a time as this. Let's rise together as one putting aside EVERY difference and be ONE ARMY FOR CHRIST! Oh, by the way, on December 6 we're going to Just for Jesus, just thought I'd mention that since I'm on a roll. We're going to all miss school and go worship God with everything we've got. So let's quit fighting and being divided and let's get to work as ONE with God on our side and win our schools and generation for HIM!!!
1 Corinthians 1:10
I have a serious concern to bring up with you, my friends, using the authority of Jesus, our Master. I'll put it as urgently as I can: You must get along with each other. You must learn to be considerate of one another, cultivating a life in common.

Hola! Como estas amigos? (How are you friends?)

Well already it's been several weeks since I've last posted. So lets catch up. We had a great medical outreach 2 weekends ago in Gonzales at our new Spanish campus. We has 4 SALVATIONS! Glory to the King!!! It was awesome. Several people were freed from things that had bound them for a long time. God is awesome and definitely showed up. Even in the midst of the all of our personal issues we all were facing, God moved. I love how God heals us when we quit thinking of ourselves and and go out and help others. So that was two weekends ago. After that, my volleyball season ended. I'm excited, but sad too. I have to start doing other things to stay in shape now. lol So, yeah.... This weekend I had the privilege of helping Jason Guidry with a school project. He has to film a scene from this movie which I'm not sure what it is...sorry Jason!!! It's cool though. I have to basically sit there and not smile or move with a blindfold on. I had the greatest time though.They definitely bring out the best in me. That would be Jason, Jake, and Khira. So needless to say I had so much fun. I'm also excited about this weekend when I get to celebrate my BD. I get to hang out with just a few of the people I love. I can't wait to see y'all on Wednesday. Y'all are awesome!!!
