Today

Today was really good.  I was living for God today.

That comment probably doesn't make sense to whoever is reading this- if anyone is, or ever will.  But last night I was praying and I was forced to ask myself, "who was I living for today?"  So today God helped me be intentional with my actions.  

The thing is, I was always being intentional with my actions...I just had the wrong intents.  

I feel  like cause and effect happen really quickly in my life.  I mean, it's probably not actually cause and effect, that's just the way things happen, but still.  

Today I was living for God, and it was a really good day.  

After rehearsal Molly and Jacob and I went to Cannon Mine.  I hadn't been in so long, and it was so great to go!  Rehearsal also went really well today.  I mean, we worked stuff.  And it worked.  Yay!  And I finished Tom's slippers.  

Things to pray for: 

-my friend Becca: I'm sort of worried about her.  She ate under 700 calories yesterday.  She thinks she needs to become skinny.  Okay, she's already a totally fine weight!  She says she's so tired, and she thinks she's getting seriously addicted to coffee.  And I'm not sure if it's her sole motivation, but she's partially doing it because she wants to do cheer next year.  There's a lot of things in this paragraph that just make me say yikes.

-Kelda: she looked down today.  I want her to know that she is so immensely loved.  And so beautiful!  Silly girl.   

-my grandpa: he had a stroke earlier last fall, and he had another one two days ago.  This one was really small, but prayer works wonders and I want him to heal completely.

Ironman is drawing nearer and nearer.  I don't want to build it up so that it can never live up to my expectations (I tend to do that and it's really bad), but at the same time I know it's going to be so incredible.  I can't wait!  Today Gary e-mailed everyone about keeping a prayer journal.   That requirement for this trip is something I'm really stoked for.  I've kept a notebook since 7th grade, and...just wow.  I hope that for at least one person it will have the same effect it had for me.  It's been so great that even if one person finds it useful, I'll be really excited.  Of course, I am anyways, so...haha.

I hope this post finds you all well. 

Good

night

God 

bless
