As I was working on a paper due on Wednesday I really thought I needed to come and post.
I rarely get on pleonast anymore because of being incredibly busy with school, but needed so share
some things with you.

I know that most of us are sick of hearing count your blessings. We hear it all the time. But I commend you
to hold onto your seat belt and give me two minutes of your time.

I came across a blog just the other day of a girl who dated a boy for a considerably long period of time.
She grew close to him and I believe their relationship was for the most part serious.

The one day he got into a coma. Her heart was broken. To this day she deals with that.

Now I ask you. Can you really sit there and say you are not blessed. Can you really sit there and say I am
having a bad day?

It's a sad commentary, but we all need to really look in the mirror and contemplate our attitudes.
We are so blessed.

Thank the Lord today for all he has given you.
May God bless you on HIS day.

    We are the most blessed of people on earth, and sadly the most ungrateful sometimes. There can't be too many reminders. Thanks!

    thank you for your prayers for Vince.
    I am finding the joy in servitude because no matter what the future will hold. When I stand before God, along with being very humbled, I do not want the shame of omitting to serve and pray for someone I cared for who needed me.

    yes we shudder when we count our blessings. I know I do. In all of this gratitude to God I try not to not forget to also be a blessing to others. Being a blessing I have found out takes a degree of sacrifice, but whatever we give up will never match the sacrifice of Jesus.

    I miss Vince EVERY day.I was honored to be his girlfriend.
    He was coming to church with me,and then the accident happened that injured him severely, and killed our close friend Breck.
    I have to let Vince continue to know that the girl who encouraged him to reach out to Jesus, is still there.
    Thank you for your prayers which strengthen me..

Pray for the Ing family as Nathan is in the arms of God.

Keep the Harris family in your prayers and they continue in their transition period.

I turn 16 in 3 days.... time passes.
Growing up is a part of life, but sometimes seems so surreal.

I love my job.

Music inspires me... and blowing money on music makes me incredibly happy.

This summer has been great. Camp was good.
I only have 2 years left... that blows my mind.

I love my friends for putting up with me...

Singing has been well. My recital was a few months back.

God is good. He is a supplier of all we need.

Never lose sight of the ultimate goal... if you miss heaven... you have missed it all.

(: dont forget to smile.

you have jesus.. all you need in this life.

    It is here at the community college in Alvin, and I had to try out with the head of the music department. You have to be a student to join, though.

Please pray for the Ing family and little Nathan.. This is a difficult time for them. They needs prayers as the Lord holds and comforts them.

    Let me get back with you on that. I'll email Jeff Clark. It wasn't announced.

    This is from the Clarks:

    "The service will be on Saturday, July 11th at 2:00 pm. It will be at the Luff-Bowen funeral home in McEwen, Tenn. I really can't provide any details on the cemetery as it is a family cemetery in the country and do not have a street name at this time. But, burial will follow the service."
