Well.. let's see. This week has started out great. This weekend I got to spend Thursday-Saturday in Jackson with 200 other students who are going to be Summer Missionaries. Pretty awesome, I must say. We worshiped together, prayed together, and became friends and made some pretty great memories. I met two girls that will be going to Montana and I am excited even more now. I must say that I am still fearful of the unknown, but I know that God is looking out for me and he has a GREAT plan!
I am graduating from ICC on May 10, leaving for Montana on May 31. I am coming home on August 8th and moving into my house as soon as I get home. It will be amazing but soooo much to do in a short length of time. I am very excited about what God has in store for me this summer. I am ready to see the sights, tell those precious kids about him, and enjoy myself and enjoy seeing the world that my Lord made. Pray for me, and all of my friends that will be going this summer from ICC-BSU.
Thank you Lord for letting me know that even though I am weak that I can make a difference and I can impact kids lives for a whole summer. Big responsibility=awesome challenge, and a lifechanging difference. :)
Peace!
God uses the weak to lead the strong... **

This weekend is going to be a great one. I am Jackson bound for Summer Missions Orientation. I am really excited, scared, nervous, not knowing what is going to happen. I get to go with some of my BEST friends so that makes it all worth the while. :) This week has been very stressful, tests galore, projects, reports.. I'm ready for a break! The Lord has been good and blessed me though through it all.. I still have my cold that Won't go AWAYYY!!! Ugh...
Until next time.... Peace!
Marjorie, Tyler, and I ... Love My Family!!

Spring Break was awesome.. San Fran. I want to go back. We had a blast working for the Lord, but it was just that WORK! We got to do alot of things that we (or I) don't ever do here at home. We redid the outside of a girls dorm, put a brick sidewalk down, and outside jobs like that. We had a great time and felt a feeling of accomplishment. The girls and guys at the Seminary were precious and they were very nice in telling us how much they appreciated our work. Our flights were good, some were delayed by no big deal. Scott demolished(only word to describe) his toe in the airport and bless him.. it was terrible. Thank you God for a great Spring Break!
I have a terrible cold and it is wearing me down. I went and got a shot today and I am praying that it heals fast. Ready for what the week ahead has.
Pray for Lizzie ( a girl our age who died of cancer-friends with Lindsay Wall) and Jordan Lindsey.
Thank you Lord for another day!

Hey guys!
What a weekend. I had tons of fun and I am still tired from it. Friday night I chilled at home with my parentals and did some homework! Saturday I got up at 4:45 AM and went to the Ole Miss Soriority Yard sale with Aims. This is our new tradition. :) Then, I drove to Madison, Mississippi to see my cousins. They are 6 and 3 and it was their birthday party. They are precious! I just love them! :) I drove and almost fell asleep the whole way home! I was exhausted.
Sunday we had a Gideon speaker at church and he was precious! He reminded me of Jack Nicholson.. and it was an awesome service. God is good. I worked WinterJam too and got to work at Franchesca Bastineli's table.. I got to meet her and got a free cd out of the deal. Her music is awesome.. check it out.
That's my weekend, and now off to a brand new week!
Love! ☮

I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me!
Today I took the Praxis, and Passed! woo hoo!. God is soo good. I was scared to death, went to the wrong place, and even started late but praise the Lord, I passed. I called my grandmother, "Mom" and she said, " Girl, the Lord is smiling down on you today!" This just made my day. I love having a family who encourages me and lets me know when they are proud of me. I have some pretty amazing friends too! We held hands and prayed in the cafeteria today at lunch for my test, and Hoby's. I love having friends who genuinely care also.
This means now that I can sign the lease on a house in Oxford. Yay! I'm a big kid now. :)
I am so tired, and fixing to go to bed.
Love ya'll! :)

My title of this blog deals with what we learned about tonight in Bible Study. That is so true and it just made me think about things. That it what I should be doing everyday of my life and I fail my Jesus so many times. I am so unworthy of all that he gives but Praise him, he is Faithful. :)
Today we had to work the baseball game because we made this decision to be diamond girls @ ICC. What were we thinking! Really? Unprepared is not the word.. we had to be personal grocery shoppers before the game started. Gross! Don't get me started. So then, we did have a good day. Ashley, Brittany, and I pretty much dominated the concession stand. We did homework, cooked some greasy hamburgers, and had fun in the meantime! Then, the pitcher from the other team got hit in the nose(face) with the ball. His face was messed up terribly and he had to be rushed to the hospital.. pretty sure he had surgery. Pray for him! :) This was my day and now I am finishing up on homework!
We leave for San Fran in 9 days.. woo hoo!! and I take the Praxis I on Thursday. A whole bunch of praying will be going on tommorow night!
Thank you Lord for another day, help me live for you!
Goodnight ya'll.. Olive you! (hehe Caitlyn!)

So, It's been awhile. Alot has happened.
Today is Sunday, I should be sitting in the 4th pew @ Bellevue Baptist but I'm not because it SNOWED!! :) Thank you Jesus, I love snow!
I have already been out in it, taking pictures and writing my name in the snow. I wish Mississippi had more snow, but you know...
I have had a great weekend, very laid back and got a lot accomplished. Hung out with my grandmother yesterday and talked some politics. She loves when I do this with her! :) She is precious to me!
School is still bugh, and I am ready for Spring Break. I am going to San Fran and I am super excited. I get to go with some of my Best Friends and I know we are going to make tons of memories. I wish that some of my other Besties could go though.. :(
Hopefully I will have time to write back on here later this week.
God is so good, and I pray that this week that I will be able to help others, and show his love in my life.
Pray for Jordan Lindsay! --
