My Prayer

I'm gonna believe that we will see the Kingdom come to earth,
I'm gonna believe that signs and wonders follow hearts that burn,
I'm gonna believe that sickness sin and poverty will cease,
I; m gonna believe that power from the heavens will release.

Oh let Your Kingdom come on earth
And let your will be done,

Yeah light up the world with your love,
Rain down on our hearts like a flood,
Our eyes will see the glory of God,
Our eyes will see.

I'm gonna believe that fathers and their children will unite,
I"m gonna believe that marriage will not end without a fight,
I'm gonna believe that churches will become Your hands and feet,
I'm gonna believe that acts of love and kindness will increase,

Oh let Your Kingdom come on earth
And let your will be done,

Yeah light up the world with your love,
Rain down on our hearts like a flood,
Our eyes will see the glory of God,
Our eyes will see.

As You light up,
As You light up,
As You light up the world
Send Your glory
Send Your glory
Send Your glory
Send Your glory
Send Your glory
Send Your glory
Send Your glory
Send Your glory

Yeah light up the world with your love,
Rain down on our hearts like a flood,
Our eyes will see the glory of God,
Our eyes will see the glory of God,
Our eyes will see the glory of God,
Our eyes will see the glory of God,
Our eyes will see the glory of God,
Our eyes will see the glory of God,
Our eyes will see the glory of God,

Summer Stress

I love summer. A LOT. like really, i love it. but i'm not exactly loving it right now. i have a lot to do before school starts and i really dont like thinking about it. i have to:
-read 2 books and write 8 papers for summer reading for honors english
-find time to go drive because right now, i suck. really bad.
-sign up to go drive 6 hours with an instructor
-finally hang things up and finish my room...its only taken me 3 years to finally get around to doing that. literally.
-clean, clean, clean, like legit clean my room.
-clean out my bags from last school year...procrastinate much? yeeep.
-find out a way to get some money, becasue since emily can drive people now, i'm becoming broke, very, very fast.

yes, i love summer. a whole lot! but i want to punch every one of the things above becasue they are going to keep me from being really lazy the rest of this summer.

thanks for reading my little vent to my summer to do list. this made me feel a bit better.

excited!!...pumped!!...ect.

Well Hello There!

HELLLLLO BLOG WORLD!!
i havent been on here in a while! hahah i thought i'd give you all an update of my life even though i'm pretty sure not many of you will care! (but it's my blog and i can put on here what i want! so HA!)

so a few weekends ago i went to Breathe. It was a high school retreat for my youth group and i absolutely LOVED it. more to come about it when i eventually make a blog post about it...

the last GSM of the school year was last sunday!!! it was very bittersweet. I'm so excited because it means school is almost out and summer is on its way and with summer come CAAAAAAAMP!!!!!!! and the chicago mission trip i'm going on!!! but it also means GSM is over until the fall and there's many people i wont see as often anymore!

speaking of camp...I GET TO BE A CAMP COUNSELOR IN JUNE!!!!!! and i am PUUUMMPEDDD!!! (:

school is suuuper stressful right now with finals and for some reason all of my teachers decided to save alllll of the homework that i never got all year so they could give it to me the last 2 weeks of school. how thoughtful!! so i'm craming in as much homework and studying as i can and i am stressed ouuuuut!

so this was pretty much a pointless post...i promise the next one might be a little more interesting (;

some serious spring break crazy awesome goodness!! (:


t-minus 30 hours until departure (:

i don't really have a title for this post...

My transition from middle school to high school made for a lottt of changes. One of the biggest and most confusing changes was some of my friendships. I lost friends in the transition, but I also grew closer to other friends and I even gained a few new friends! At the beginning of the year I was so confused on how last year I was so close to those friends and now all of a sudden its like we barely even knew each other! But now, I know that God was behind it all. He knew exactly what he was doing, and he always does! I realize now that those friendships weren't for me. They weren't really doing me any good. They caused more drama then I need and they led me into uneeded temptation. Now that those friendships no longer exsist (or they at least aren't as strong), I have been able to grow closer to those who build me up closer to God. I've also met some people who just over the past 6 months, have had a huge impact on my life! I am sooo super thankful for the ways God works!

we're singing this song in choir (:
