no i wont give up.

Hey friends (: i feel like im posting alot this month... which i totally love. this week has been going awesome. as i sit here i just look on the past few weeks i am just in complete awe of the huge things the Lord is doing.  you know in previous posts ive been having little pitty parties for myself about how this year hasnt been going like i had plan. and to be honest i am so thankful it isnt going as planned because honestly how boring would it be if life was exactly as we thought it would be? i am also so thankful the Lord has such a bigger plan than my own and His always seems to prevail over mine. lols.

well right now i am in a great place. i love the place i am with the Lord its one of those rare moments that everything is going so good and you just really get it, you know what im sayin? you can just see Him working so evidently in your life and others. and i love that. i look back on previous blog entries and in my journal and i see where i was, i still feel a little pinch of the pain that i felt deep in my heart but now looking back i just get to see how the Lord held me in His hands and just carried me through those times. and i honestly just love that. i have been praying and praying for blacksburg high school and the kids in it, the upper and lower classmen, my friends. and i got to a point where i was just like common Lord! these kids need you so badly. they need you Lord. and it breaks my heart to just see these kids hurting. it breaks my heart to just see them walking into things that arent going to work. i just want them to know Jesus. i just want them to know how much they are loved. so i continue to pray. i wont give up on this school. i wont give up because times like these where i see how much the Lord has been working and i have been so blind to it. it gives me so much hope. it gives me so much strength because i know the Lords plans are so much bigger than mine. His time is so much better than mine. i know that i am here for a reason and right now and i am blind to it  but the Lord will guide me through this.

we are all going through seasons in life. right now it might be crappy. it might be awesome or it might just be plain and boring. but through these season i just encourage you to depend on the Lord through all of it. just lean on him through the rough times, the great times, the normal times. pray for your friends, your co workers, your family. dont give up. even though sometimes i know it feels like its not working. i promise you the Lord is working. all the time. and when you finally get to see that all your praying paid off it will be so worth it. it will be such a gift to you from the Lord.


dont give up. dont give in. keep fighting for your friends, and family. keep showing up and loving them. because the Lord is proabably using you in huge ways and you dont even know it.
