10 days until Christmas

Today marks the 10 days until Christmas! I can't believe it! Seriously have no idea where the time has gone. My goal for the end of the year to have all my blogs together on this page!

School shooting

 Today we were given the news that there was a school shooting and then three parents came and got their children from school when they found out. I think with the shooting that we had three days ago fresh on our minds, it's causing panic.

I DO NOT think that anyone should be able to walk into a school that is supposed to be a safe place for students and staff to come to kill 27 people!

And I am back! (Bunco Part 2)

So yesterday and of course it's in a place that we don't know where it is but now we do...

The night ended up with me winning first place and of course that my mom "took" my five dollars of my winning!

Until January Bunco people. I am back!

In the last 24 hours........

In the last 24 hours, we have had shooting at the town center, high school going into to lockdown because a student bringing a gun to the school, a bomb threat in a middle school. What's next?!

Clackamas Town Center Shooting

Yesterday, I was supposed to meet my mom there but we changed to another place at the last minute. I'm glad that we did but I was not expecting to be email so much by my friends and family making sure that I was okay. I had just gotten over to Parkrose transit center when I saw three cop cars going there. I thought that it was to pull someone over. It was not until I got to Gateway when i found out what was going on. Someone had came into the mall and killed two people and then himself.  He injured a little girl. It just makes me thankful that we changed the meeting place.

Next Blog is Bunco recap!

Moving?

So my plans are for this weekend are to move the blogs from the old Life as a 22 year old to this one! It might take me awhile to do that because there is a lot of blogs!

Pearl Harbor!

Tomorrow will be the remember of Pearl Harbor attacks. I have been there two years and it's amazing to see that what happen there has been a part of our country. Now remind you that these are the photos that my family had taken on our trip so there are copyright on them

we were not allow to take any photos in side of the memorial. I tried and I got yelled at. It was so sad that I found myself praying for the people there.

Will Ministry still be there in my life?

Hope Alive Ministry?
Honestly, I loved writing for the site and the blog. I was giving advice and praying for those that needed it. When Bayley removed from admin on both the facebook page and blog it kind of made me feel used. Truthfully if Bayley did not removed me last week. I would have done it myself. I did not feel God in that ministry so why be part of it? I tried to stay into it and make it be more about God then what it was turning out. So I guess that means that I am closing that door (ministry) in my life today.

What's new?
I decided to start writing for Passion for the Lord and Hope for the furture with the Lord. They will be 100% about the Lord and not for other things. They will also be about praying and helping others.
God Bless

Why locked the door?

I don't understand why a church of God would locked out the people that run this church and leave them outside in the cool. I thought that this church was supposed to be a dangerous church and not a church that locks out their volunteers. 

God's will!

Lately I have been doing more of God's will rather then doing my will. It's so hard to start doing that more. As my first 4 months of bible study ends, I am changing the way that I do it.

1. Write down the bible verse in a notebook

2. Write down your thoughts and feelings of the verse

3. Highlight the verse in the bible

4. Pray about the bible Study for that day!

That should be the way that I am starting 2013 with my first full year of bible study.

December is here!

Today I am finally getting used to not being part of ministry that I loved to write for. I started my own ministry on the 27th and I am trying to get it up and running. It's hard starting a new ministry when I was praying to have it ran with Hope Alive Ministry but right now I don't think it's going to happen.
There is a lot of things that I have going for me and I have so many blogs to write this month.

God Bless

Hoilday Season right around the bend?!

So I was so excited for Christmas and Thanksgiving to be here!

Thanksgiving:  During this month leading up to Thanksgiving, I decided to be part of the 30 day thankful day. I must say that I feel more closer to God right now. 

Christmas: I love Christmas and it's not because of the presents. It's always been about my family and friends that I get to spend it with.
