Decision made
So I have been going to this church called cornerstone and they asked me a week ago if I would lead a life group. I told them I would pray about it. So after much prayer and counsel, I have decided not to become a life group leader. I just felt it wasn't biblical for me to be leading men. I also feel like I'm not 100% commited to Cornerstone and that it also wouldn't be fair to the church if I were to start leading and then end up moving back to Fort Collins this summer.

"PRAISE GOD" moment and a song I wrote
So I have a summer job! So excited and praising God for it. Below is a a song I wrote on monday and yesterday. It's about how we can get distracted by things in this world and we need God to bring us back to him.
*******************************************************************************
Tame my wandering heart
My heart is always wandering
Bring me back to you
I feel so wrong to feel this way
Focus my heart on you
Chorus
Break me of my insecurities
Free me from my sin
Don't let the lies corrupt me
Hear this sinner's cry for help
I don't want to live for me
I want you to be glorified in me
Only you can tame my wandering heart
Tame my wandering heart
so that I can honor you
God please tame my wandering heart
I'm drowning in a sea of sin
Let your grace save me from death
Your love is overwhelming me
Chorus x2
Satisfy my soul
like only you can
Love me
like only you can
Chorus
Tame my wandering heart

In the middle of this beautiful chaos we call life
Do you ever feel like you are just running in circles? Lately, I have felt like that. The only reason why I haven't gone mentally insane yet is God's amazing grace. Oh Lord, I would be lost without God! There are three things he has totally been giving me grace in.
The first thing is decision making. Often times, I get so lost in things that I want for my life that I forget to say,"Okay God, what do you want me to do?" Like I said in my previous blog post, I am in the process of trying to make some decisions about some things in my life. I haven't made any decisions yet but I'm hoping to have decisions made by Sunday. God is very patiently and lovingly, walking me through it all.
The second thing is keeping in touch with family and friends who I don't see very often. This semester I feel like I have been horrible at keeping in touch with my Foco friends and my extended family. God recently brought me to the verse that talks about not giving up meeting with others and it just convicted me. So if I haven't talked to you in a while, please forgive me for not keeping in touch.
The third thing is spending time with God. I get so caught up in okay, I got to do this and I got to do that. I often forget to sit down and talk to God. Yes I do have daily quiet times but I often rush through them so I can get ready for school. I am going to try my best to slow down and just listen to what God has to say. God is one smart dude so I should definately pay attention to what he has to say.
I hope you are doing well and staying connected with God!

Pray for me please and thank you!
So I have some things going on in my life right now that I need to make descisons about. I have chosen to not say on here what they are untill I make a descision. In the mean time, you can pray for me!
Prayer Requests
Pray for wisdom in knowing God's will
Pray for guidance
Pray for willingness to do whatever God has me doing
Pray that God's will would be done in my life
Pray whatever I decide would glorify God

rough day
Today has been a rough day for me. I have just felt cranky and like a big bag of sin. Today in my bio class we had a sub who confused everyone. Anytime anybody would ask her a question, we would all get confused even more. I have also felt like I can't do anything right. I called my chiropractor because the last couple of days my back, my neck, and my hips have been hurting. It's not the worst pain ever but it's enough to where I have to modify activites. My chiropractor said that he thinks I should start going to physical therapy. That's not exactly what I wanted to hear. Pray for joy and that I would trust God knows what he is doing.
