Single and Fabulous - Exclamation Point

I just wanted to write today to tell anyone who still reads my blog, that God is awesome!!

Last night we had our first devo of the summer for the singles' ministry... as many of you know I am helping to advance this ministry at our church. And as many of you know this is a ministry that needs a lot of help usually!! I have yet to understand why we go through middle school, high school and college using all of our time to praise God with other Christians and fellowship, and somehow after college that just stops. I don't know about you, but I want it back!! As Matthew West (a Christian Artist) says:

"Well, I wish I could say I always stayed right there And I did until my freshman year But the world was pulling me a long way from thirteen And you were calling but I didn't hear Still I knew there was something more So, one day my knees hit the dorm room floor I said, "If you're there, and if you really care, Come and talk to me like I was thirteen." "

Anyway, the devo was awesome and we're well on our way to creating a place for singles' to come and be a part of a family... God's family. So pray for us and praise God that He works in awesome ways. And take time today to rekindle that feeling ... the mountain top feeling of when you were young and you had just discovered how great being a Christian could be.

Fill in the Blanks

So I realized today that I haven’t updated my blog in 5 months!!! 5 MONTHS!! That’s a long time. Why hasn’t anyone complained…. Do people even still read my blog? Who knows? Well for those of you who are still reading this here’s what I have been up to.

1. My parents are taking all of us (the WHOLE family) to Disney World in a month. I’m kind of excited… I love Roller Coasters and we haven’t been on a family vacation since I was in third grade… so we’ll see how this goes.

2. I took another exam, and I think that I might have passed this one but we’ll have to wait until July to find out.

3. I am now in charge of the singles’ ministry at my church and consequently I have learned that I don’t like planning things for people my age… I also realized that I’m a much bigger dork than I thought I was.

4. The Astros are terrible this season. Let’s hope this isn’t an omen for the Texans’ season.

And that’s pretty much it…. Leave a comment with your exciting news, and I promise I will post again soon!!!
