The Necessities of Life

The Necessities of Life

My prayer journal is filling up with a something, a something that has really been on my heart and mind. I feel foolish for it being there, written in my handwriting, on the paper. But it is there, and it is what I feel. Oh how I wish that this feeling would either bloom or just go away all together. Bah.

On a more random note....

After 257.40 cups of Starbucks Grande Caffe Latte, you'd be pushing up daisies

Take that as you please.

I spent most of my evening yesterday in the ER with an ear infection. It was bad, and the doctor was worse. It could tell you how bad it was, but I believe a conversation sums it up better.
Her: So how did it go last night?
Me: It was bad, the doctor was mean.
Her: How mean was He?
Me: Well lets just say that when he left the room, I gave him my angry eyes.
Her: Oh, thats bad.

GOD, the Master, The Holy of Israel,
has this solemn counsel:
“Your salvation requires you to turn back to me
and stop your silly efforts to save yourselves.
Your strength will come from settling down
in complete dependence on me–
The very thing
you’ve been unwilling to do.”
-Isaiah 30:15

My ABC's

A- is for Armenia, which makes me wiggle when I think about it.

B- is for Braums, which Amanda, Me, Justin, and Deea were going to go to tonight.

C- is for canceled. Justin canceled, and then Deea suddenly had a test to study for. It made me giggle at her.

D- is for donkey. In the Shakespeare poem I am reading for British Literature, they is a white donkey that I lovely lady sits upon.

E- is for email. I received a lovely email the other day that said:

"Addi I love you and I hope you live well and prosper."

I lovingly replied with:

"I heart you friend. And may the God of Wrath not pour out his bowl of eternal torment on you.
Have a good day!
Love, Addi"

F- is for fire. There was a terrible fire tonight across the street from the church.

G- is for Gas, the prices are going down.

H- helphaump. I think is how you spell it. I recieved a helphalump stuffed animal named Lumpy. He is cute and purple.

I- is for incomparable mercy and grace. His mercy and grace is like no other.

J- is for jammies. I have purple jammies on tonight that I only wear in the winter time.

K- is for K-Lake, our local radio station that I am in love with.

L- is for lip gloss. I must confess I am in love with it.

M- is for mad. I am mad that I cannot find my USB cord to upload pictures from my camera. (I believe that it accidentally got packed.)

N- is for narwhal. That is the only thing I can think of.

O- is for orange juice, which I am now craving.

P- is for passport, which I get in Janurary.

Q- is for Quaker Oatmeal, which I believe is on the menu for breakfast in the morning.

R- is for Rae, which is the middle name of the best friend.

S- is for sacrifice. God wanted me to sacrifice something, and it hurt a lot to do it.

T- is for talking with the Lord.

" I want you to sacrifice all of your secular music and let it go."
"But Lord, music is my life, it's one of my passions."
"Exactly, you put it in front of me."
"This is too hard for me, it is something I cannot do."
"Remember what I did for you?"

U- is for understanding what God is speaking to my heart.

V- is for vegabon, which is a word in an Elton John song I heard on the radio today.

W- is for water, the taste of our tap water is yucky.

X- it is extremely dangerous to do air guitar while jumping of the couch. Scars tend to happen.

Y- is for yesterday. Yesterday is a word that pops up in a lot of places. You can talk about what happened to you yesterday, Paul McCartney, and Hilary Duff can sing about yesterday, or you can refer to something as being 'so yesterday'. This requires a toss of the hand, and a strong valley girl accent. Lord help you if you ever say that in a sentence.

Z- is for Zeus. Which is a Greek god, which reminds me of the Greek alphabet, which reminds me of hurricane beta. Love how my mind works?

But the waves are calling out my name
And they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times
I’ve tried before and failed
But the voice of truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says, Do not be afraid
The voice of truth says, This is for My glory

~
Waves are calling out my name and laughing at me. It’s hard, I’m not going to lie. But this too shall pass.
It’s hard learning that you have faults and when others tell you this. But last night, they did not tell me this to hurt me, but they told me because they loved me. They told me things I needed to see.
Sometimes I am so ready to hear the words “Well done, good and faithful servant.”

I did this and I thought it was pretty interesting. I would recommend this neat little project to anyone. Have fun, I know I did.
Hurry though, because it does end soon.

Oh, I want this with a passion. It comes out Nov. 22nd. (He's so pretty.)
But alas, I have to money, because I cannot find a job, so watching this will have to do for now.

In response to my sharing another one of my dreams, my mother quickly replies, "You better be careful about sharing your dreams, or your going to find your self in a hole, just like Joseph."

This past weekend I have spent in prayer. Today I gave my decision that I would love to go to Armenia. This excites me and terrifies me all at the same time. I am happy about this journey, and welcome it with open arms. But it is the fear of the unknown, the 'what-ifs' that are getting to me. I know God will provide, and take care of me. So I will be fine.
And, I get a stamp in my passport.

~
Love is invincible facing danger and death.
Passion laughs at the terrors of hell.
The fire of love stops at nothing--
it sweeps everything before it.
Flood waters can't drown love,
torrents of rain can't put it out.
Love can't be bought, love can't be sold--
it's not to be found in the marketplace.
-Song of Solomon 8:6-7

God has opened a door that I had not thought would open.

He has answered my prayers and has given me a wonderful opportunity next October.

But who ever thought it would be Armenia?

I sure didn’t.

Prayers would be grateful.

Last night I had a dream that my family and I went on vacation to Hawaii. We had a great time swimming with dolphins and the sea lions. (Remember, this is a dream.) In a spur of the moment decision, my father says he wants to go to Aruba the next morning, we all agree. So that night my family went to bed early. I decided to take a walk on the beach with my camera. Soon, I spot a surfer. As this surfer glided and spun across the water, he left a trail of brilliant glitter in the water. The colors were wonderful oranges, purples, and blues. Surprised by this I call out to the surfer. “Surfer, how are you making all of those colors?”
He simply responds, “This is what happens when you surf and smoke pot.”

How or where that cam from I have no idea, but I woke up this morning laughing to myself.

I am slowly being drawn into the magic of a powerbook. I am truly thinking about switching.
