Here's what I've been up to... I deleted facebook for about a month. It was really getting me down. Booooo. Too much negativity for this girl's taste. I really needed time away from social networking. Time to focus on being human and not part of a silly website. I needed to deal with some stuff. I'm back on it now, though, since I feel like I'm in a way better place with my heart.
Now, on to more recent events! ↓
Today, I cleaned my room. It was kind of a big deal.
Seriously. My room has been so cluttered and disgusting. It's been terrible. I hardly even had space to set a cup down or sit. Lamesauce! So, I just cleaned it all up. I wasn't even planning it. I didn't even realize I was in the mood to clean. I just...started cleaning. And BAM! Now my room is clean! Both of my desks are cleaned off and organized; my dresser top is cleaned off, organized, and accessible; I moved a shelf that really made my room look cramped; my shoes are now organized and off the closet floor; and, lastly, I now have a knitting basket. I'm pleased as punch about all this! :) Good job, team!
I know my room doesn't look as clean because of how I have everything hanging on my walls and such... But it's my way. Haha. That's just kind of how I cope with little pictures and things. And how I cope with not being able to paint my walls. Gotta have fun somehow!
This last weekend, (Oct. 5) Katie, her mom and I went to the Kari Jobe "Where I Find You Tour" in Joplin. It was phenomenal. Seriously, such a great night. The worship was beautiful, and it really blessed me so deeply to get to be a part of that. Also, Kari Jobe is stinkin' gorgeous. Her eyes twinkle! They twinkle!!! It's crazy! Haha. I got a zip-up jacket and bracelet from her merch table. Both very cute, and both I forgot to get pictures off of my phone and onto my computer of. Oops! Otherwise, I'd post them. So instead, I gave you guys Katie and I lookin' all dolled up for Jesus. (:
Last thought before I run off to dreamland... I highly suggest reading Psalm 16 and really studying it. Take the time to get to know the terminology, (find out the root meanings of "Sheol", etc.) meditate on it verse by verse. It's great. David takes you from just declaring God's trustworthy, constant goodness and next thing you know, you're declaring your constant trust in Him! My favorite verses from this chapter are verses 8 (set the LORD always before me!) through 11. Oh, verse 11... ♥ Such a wonderful reminder. In His presence is fulness of joy!!! YES! How true. So, yeah. Read it through a few times, and then just seriously read it prayerfully and intently. Nestle it up in your heart. ;)
Goodnight!:)
