A Bit Behind...

ok, im sorry i havent been updating as much as i used to, but this happens a lot doesnt it? theres a point where you (i know im not the only one... *cough*ruthie*cough*) have like 20 updates a month and then the next month you have 1... so im writing this post to apologize. most likely the rest of what your about to read is everything that pops into my mind... just to warn you:

so..there has been a TON going on lately and i have had no time to write. exams are comin up, i had to finish up some school projects, i had to design my grad party invite, im sick, i just started a 500 page book, and i graduate in a WEEK! thats just a few things that are goin on in my life right now... i just finished a book called Just Do Something by Kevin DeYoung. SUPER good book! its all about Gods will and its been a hugh encouragement with all the choices im making with college and stuff. speaking of college, i just got my acceptance letter from NIU last night! i know its no surprise, but hey, i have proof that i am going to college now! i just sent my ACT score to Northland and all i have left is my final transcript and a shot... i hate shots O.o speaking of shots, its kinda trippin me out that i only have a few days left of high school. with it being my last week as a senior you would think its the best week of my life, but theres some stuff goin on that i wish i didnt have to graduate with. but its all in Gods plan. Mr. Fremont gave an example in chapel today about christians bein like hot dogs. weird analogy i think, but it made a good point. christians like bein comfortable in there package with all their friends, but when God pulls us out and puts us on a fire, we're not to happy about all the pain, but at the end when we're done we're a whole lot better than what we used to be. the fire hurts, but in the end its worth it. im pretty sure im still on the fire... i'd rather be a brat instead of a hotdog (brat as in the thing you eat, not some punk kid). *sigh*

I hope to write another post after graduation sometime. graduation is the 21st, my party is the 22nd, and im free up until the 31st witch is when i leave for the states to see family! then i get back on Guam sometime late june and im here for a few weeks. then i leave for college the 27th of august. ahhh! this summer is gunna fly! i hope things get fixed =/

I hope they get fixed too, but I hope you grow closer to God and you mature in your walk with Him even more, for your sake. Speaking of grad party, am I invited? I know that is totally loser-like, but I wanted to know...in case I have to crash, like at your 16th birthday party

Thanks for the update Luke, I'll be praying that God shows his leading in your life and that He will help you get through the fire that he has you in.

And in this fiery situation, if u have time (in between all the exams :) ) check out these three verses.
Zechariah 13:9;
I Peter 1:7;
Job 23:10

I pray that this will be your desire in all of whatever you are going through.
