| Sooooo stressed out right now--lots on my mind...lots to worry about...lots of homework, projects, papers, tests, & quizzes going on. And before we know it, it will be exams! Ahh. Not cool--yeah, I'm all about ending school & having summer...but I don't even want to THINK about exams yet. Uhhh. In GOOD news--Sanjaya's off American Idol...finally! Man, it's about time. So that was my little 'joy' of the day, haha. Oh...that, and...PRISM time! We're only singing PRISM music in choir now--sooo fun! Especially 'cause we're singing pretty good songs this year. ("Dance Evolution"--AMAZING...has songs such as 'Hound Dog', 'Greased Lightening', 'Keep On', 'Chicken Dance', 'YMCA', 'Mr. Roboto', 'Bye, Bye, Bye', 'Hey Ya' 'Oompa Loompa Doompa Dee Do', 'The Twist', 'U Can't Touch This', 'Ice, Ice, Baby', 'Walk Like an Egyptian', 'Cotton Eyed Joe', & 'Thriller'! haha ........ "Forever Motown"--'Sugarpie, Honeybunch', 'Ain't No Mountain High Enough', 'Back In My Arms Again', 'What Becomes of the Broken Heart', 'Dancing in the Street', 'I Heard It Through the Grapevine', & 'Reach out, I'll Be There' .......... "At Last"--a song originally sung by Etta James ............. "Les Miserables"--songs from the Broadway musical ....... and our patriotic number, which is all the military songs) So yeah, that's good, too!  The whole Virginia Tech thing is really sad--and that guy, Cho, who did it...was completely psycho. The videos he made & sent and the things he said & wrote and stuff...wow, ridiculous. I can't believe anyone could do that. I can't even imagine doing that. Or thinking those things. Or feeling that mad or hurt to do something even remotely close to that. I don't understand--I can't comprehend it. And I know why I can't -- because of my faith. I know it's wrong. And I know that no matter how bad life seems to be here, it's going to be SO much better afterwards--so I don't need to do something stupid and selfish like that. And I know that GOD is in control--and I know not to try to play his role and be in control of life and death. When I hear stories like this one...and see people like Cho...(or even people not as "bad" or "crazy" as him)...I just get so sad. I wish so badly that there was a way I could spread God's Word to EVERY SINGLE PERSON on his wonderful Earth! And for them all to believe and let Jesus into their hearts and be saved! How amazing would that be?! It's so sad to me...thinking of people who don't believe. Like, what's the purpose of their life, really? (...Nothing.) And what happens when they die? (...Hell.) And where to do they go to for comfort? (...Friends? Family? Music? Etc? But none of that gives REAL comfort or REAL peace and assurance.) It's just so sad--I can't imagine not having Jesus, you know? Like...he's there WHENEVER I need him...24/7/365. He listens to ANYTHING I have to say. And when I mess up? He forgives me. He doesn't hold a grudge or use it against me, like people in the world do. He forgives me and is my best friend no matter what. Just knowing what he did for me...and what he continues to do for me...and the place that I will have forever after life on this Earth...it's so amazing! I can feel my faith inside me...burning. It's the greatest feeling in the whole world. I just want to SHOUT IT OUT to everyone and I want to let the WHOLE world know what I know! And I want everyone to feel this feeling that I feel inside me...the feeling of faith in my Savior and the peace, happiness, joy it brings me! I want everyone to have that! It's so amazing--I CAN'T EVEN SAY IT ENOUGH OR EXPLAIN IT WELL ENOUGH! Ahhh--MY GOD IS AN AWESOME GOD! Wow--I'm really glad I started talking about that. Because I have been/am sooo stressed out--school, friends, family, and personal issues that I'm worrying about, dealing with...but you know what? In the end, things of this Earth don't matter. Yeah, it may suck right now...but who cares, right? As long as I live for God and do my part in sharing his Word and trying to spread his kingdom...and as long as I keep my faith alive and growing, always...these "bad" things don't matter. Yeah--I'm not gonna lie...I'm still gonna stress and worry about them and stuff...it's human nature, it's sin...but at the same time, I'll be relieved because I KNOW the truth! Mmmm...HOW AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!! OUR GOD IS AN AWESOME GOD, HE REIGNS FROM HEAVEN ABOVE WITH WISDOM, POWER, AND LOVE OUR GOD IS AN AWESOME GOD "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." --John 3:16 MY HEART'S ON FIRE AND NOTHING CAN HIDE IT THE LOVE OF MY SAVIOR IS BURNING INSIDE IT JESUS, I LOVE YOU, AND YOU'RE MY DESIRE YOU SET MY HEART ON FIRE...<3 |
