Low Ride-er:o)

Yay!! Luke is getting a new/old:o) car.. His grandpa found him a '90 honda civic that only has like 70,000 miles on it.. This elderly lady bought it and really never drove it and it's basically been parked at her house for well a WHILE...It gets good gas mileage even if it's not the newest car off the lot but it will do! Sure it would be nice to get a brand new shiny car but let's face it we are in our 20s and that's just not feasible financially at the moment.. if it gets you to and fro and doesn't cost you an arm and a leg to keep gas in it who cares how old it is:o) We have been praying for a car for a while since we've been sharing my car for the last while. This of course means that I will be getting a "real" job now, haha. Thank you Jesus for answering our prayers in your divine timing...


If you watched that video from my post yesterday here are the lyrics to the song that was playing during it and I absolutely love it and thought I would share them with you! I don't know about you but I like to see the words to songs.. to me it gives the song more meaning.



"You are my strength"~ By: Hillsong

You are my strength
Strength like no other
Strength like no other
Reaches to me
You are my hope
Hope like no other
Hope like no other
Reaches to me

In the fullness of your grace
In the power of your name
You lift me up
You lift me up

Unfailing love
Stronger than mountains
Deeper than oceans
Reaches to me

Your love oh Lord
Reaches to the heavens
Your faithfulness
Reaches to the skies

C.S. Lewis and Cardboard Testimony

" God, who foresaw your tribulation, has specially armed you to go through it, not without pain but without stain." -C.S. Lewis

Good ole C.S. he was a brilliant Irishman:o)

At the bottom of the page is a website for a thing called Cardboard testimonies.. and it is just what it says people putting their testimonies on cardboards and proclaiming them to everyone. This one came from a Church of Christ church and it really moved me when I watched it and hope it will do the same for you. My cardboard would probably say "broken and bruised heart--------piece by piece put back together through Jesus Christ"..

What would yours say?


Take a few mintues to click and watch.. it's worth it I PROMISE!

Love it!



"The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a glowing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing---it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of Divine accident."

~Horace Walpole

I've been with my "Divine accident" for almost two years...I love you Luke Adam Price!!!

Restoration

Jeremy Camp "Restored"

All this time I've wandered around
Searching for the things I'll never know
I've been searching for this answer that
Only will be found in Your love

And I feel it my heart is being mended by Your touch
And I hear it Your voice that's shown my purpose in this world

You have restored me from my feeble and broken soul
You have restored me (2x)

I've only come to realize my strength will be made perfect at Your throne
Laying all reflections down to see the precious beauty that You've shown

And I feel it my heart is being mended by Your touch
And I hear it Your voice that's shown my purpose in this world

You have restored me from my feeble and broken soul
You have restored me (2x)

Laying all these questions down
You've answered what I need
You've given more than I deserve
You're making me complete

You've given all these open doors
I'm humbled at Your feet
Show me what You've done for me

~This song is a little bit of a reflection of how I'm feeling at this time.. I'm glad my God specializes in restoration!:o)

When does it end!??

So I've realized that I'm not so good at this keeping up with blogging thing. I always forget for some reason, I need to work on being better about posting. Life has been a combination of hectic/not hectic... It seem like the times when I have time to spare I don't have anything that needs to be done but when I have things already on my plate it seems that there is ALWAYS something/things that have to be done. So I pledge that I will do my best to blog more:o)

Recently my 2001 alero (aka the silver bullet) has decided that she is going to cause problems for me, mainly in the department of NOT STARTING! I recently had my fuel pump replaced, oh not even a month ago, and it seems that we have the same issue again.. Why is it that at the most inopportune times, when you REALLY have to have your car and don't have any money/have other things you want to spend you money on (Christmas gifts), your car breaks down? It is quite the frustration, I must say, after just recently shelling out the dough for it to be fixed. Luke was planning on taking the car to Nashville on Tuesday to visit his parents for Christmas break and OF COURSE the car breaks just in time to make things complicated. Luckily he had bought me a ticket after Christmas to fly to Nashville so we found a flight this coming week to get him there and the nice folks at Southwest were more than happy to transfer the flight.. In spite of the recent set back we WILL PREVAIL and get him to Nashville so that he is able to go see his Grandparents:0) That of course means that I will be making the 11hr. trek to Nashville later on in some car, but I must admit the time alone and chance to drive and clear my mind will be welcomed!

On to other subjects.............:o)
So is it just me or does it just not feel like Christmas this year? I think that my mind has not caught up with how time has flown since August. Since I have been subbing/taking care of a 1 year old in that time (which is by the way a FULL time deal) I have just not been able to keep up with time. I am ready to have a MUCH needed break that comes at Christmas and am looking forward to ringing in the New Year in Nashville and look forward to spending time with friends and family.

Of the wall yet again (this is how my mind works, very randomly)
I am thinking about moving to Nashville, TN after the Spring and am praying about it and, if so, preparing my finances for it. So pray for me if you think about it...

Hope everyone is gearing up for a new week and for most, the last week of school before the break YAY!! Remember to not take things to seriously because we're not in control GOD IS!:O) Blessings to all!

P.S. I miss my old friends I haven't seen in forever
