Heart Dreams...

I love life, but not as I am facing it now.   I wish I could go back to January 2001 when life was really good... keep the good friends I have made since then, but go back to a simpler time...when my biggest worry was getting money to go on a Missions trip.

I am just heart sick, in more ways than I can list.   I just want to live a simple life away from this crazy world.   Maybe settle into traveling with a good husband, have a few kids (Zahena, Mahala, Zeke, ?), and create safe havens for youth...  So simple, yet so complex is that dream.

You know, I can do like Paul... put the past with its great triumphs and great tribulations behind me.   If he can do it so can I.  It wont be easy, but what in life is anymore?

Oh, for the simplicity of life on the open road again!

Imprisonment...

I hate this imprisonment of weakness; I hate this physical faintness. If only the strength of my childhood would return. If only, if only... Oh, what am I thinking? Things will ne’er be as they were, for my body is frail now, though a youth still am I.

Such is my lot in life, and ’tis a cross that I must bare. Would I ’twere another, yet still must I journey on, for though this be my lot, my calling is before me. By the grace of God I will do that which I am called to do.  A journey-task lies before me... tis time to find it.

A Teacher's Aid!

I asked what I could do to help in Youth Group to get "plugged in" now that I am a 19 year old, and not a high schooler.  Our Youth Ministry Director said the Middle School class could use a female prescience as the teacher's wife was expecting and had two preschoolers, thus was unable to attend any longer.  Thus I am now a teacher's aid in Samuel's class!  Tonight was the first night and it was awesome.  I have already come up with a saying, and it stuck.  "Keep all 6 legs on the floor.  4 of your chair, two of your body."  They had to stop and think about that one.  LOL!
