So I just realized that gmail does not give you email notifications when you all add new posts and I was wondering why on earth isn't anyone updating the blog?! But you all were and i was just out of the loop =P

Anywho...its good to hear from you all and it's truly inspiring to hear about your ever growing relationship with God and fellow Godly women. At the beginning of summer when I first got back home, I started this thing that I like to call TWG (aka Time with God). During my TWGs I spent time praying, journaling, and reading the Bible. I also have been keeping track of my TWGs on a blank sheet of paper and decorating it using my colorful Sharpies and writing down prayer requests and verses or lyrics that I stumble upon and would like to remember.

Well lately I've been feeling preoccupied with work, trying to get volunteering hours in, and trying to stay in touch with people from school that some days I neglect to spend time with God. It's always been a struggle for me put God as my number 1 priority. There's always something that my mind goes to first whether it be family and friends or my personal needs and wants. Good news is is that a friend from high school and one of the youth leaders from the church that i attend here at home want to start a bible study or weekly get-together with college students. I think thats something I really need right now but I'm not quite sure when thats going to kick off...hopefully sometime soon :)

Other than that I have also been reading the Twilight series...anyone into those? My friend from school let me borrow her books for the summer and i must say they're not that bad. But everyone who read the books say they're amazing...in my opinion they're "alright" lol....i'm planning on watching the movie soon...i wonder if that is as good as everyone says it is :P

Alright enough from me. Sorry for getting back to you so late! I'll make sure i check this blog more often. Take care everyone :)

  1. It's a cool idea to be so artsy with your times with God! I remember when we did that with Michelle-- it was really cool!
    I hope that you are getting a lot out of them!

  2. haha, be careful with the twilight series...I too started out thinking they were "weird, okay, a little interesting"... and found myself scrambling to buy more, and reading them secretly during my English classes so other people wouldn't see my poor taste in literature! ;) I really like the TWG decorating idea as well, and good luck with the Bible study!

  3. I think its great that you are fighting to have your time with God. I know that for me little distractions in life keep me from setting aside that special time. Keep doing the TWGs.
