What I Got For Christmas 2012

      Keep in mind, I am not trying to brag about what I got, but since I saw other people do this and I enjoyed reading them, I thought I would write about what I got for Christmas 2012. 
      This Christmas was one of my favorites because I got:

                          - Brown Fingerless Gloves
                          - Black and Pink Checkered Gloves (to wear around the house since my hands are always cold.)
                          - a Polka-Dotted Make-up Carrying Case
                          - a Pair of Moccasin Shoes
                          - Two Bottles of OPI Top Coat
                          - a Book called "Rescue Your Nails"
                          - a Burgandy Sweater from Ann Taylor LOFT
                          - iPhone 4
                          - a White and Pink SPECK iPhone 4 Case

     I got these from my neighbor:

                          - Anne of Green Gables
                          - a Pearly Lavender Nail Polish
                          - Lilies + Freesia Body Mist

Hope you enjoyed your Christmas! Happy New Year!

Not a Fan.

      Have you ever read the book, "Not a Fan?"  My mom ordered this book a couple days ago and it just came in through the mail.  Me and my sister had heard about it through our church and one of our friend is reading it.  The book is about becoming a completely committed follower of Jesus and being just a fan of him.
      I haven't started reading it yet, but i'm sure that when i do, I won't be able to put it down. What are some of your favorite books?

Holy is the Lord - MercyMe

We stand and lift up our hands
For the Joy of the Lord is our strength
We bow down and worship Him now
How great how awesome is He

Together we sing
Everyone sing

Holy is the Lord God Almighty
The Earth is filled with His Glory
Holy is the Lord God Almighty
The Earth is filled with His Glory

Me and my sister Elena are singing this song this sunday in our high school youth group band. I'm very excited to lead worship this year as it is my first year. Pray that we (and everyone in our band) can lead worship every Sunday and be image of God this year!

Upcoming School Year

    Are you excited about anything in this upcoming school year? Me and my twin sister are in a band with our high school youth group and we are very excited. We are going to be singing.  I'm taking some online classes this year, and I've never done that before, but I'm excited. :)

"Walk on the Water" - Britt Nicole

You look around
And staring back at you
Another wave of doubt
Will it pull you under, you wonder
What if I'm overtaken
What if I never make it
What if no ones there
Will you hear my prayer

When you take that first step into the unknown
You know that he won't let you go

So what are you waiting for
What do you have to lose
Your insecurities, they try to hold to you
You know you're made for more
So don't be afraid to lose
Your faith is all it takes
So you can walk on the water too...

Feeling Alone?

    Have you ever felt alone? Like no one is there? Like no one is there to pick you up and to help you when you need it the most?  Someone is always there.  You can't see him, but he's always there.  His name is God.
    He provides the help, support, and comfort you need.  He is all you need.  When you feel alone, sad, and like no one notices you, he always does and he is constantly looking out for you.  Find strength and confidence in God, because when you seek him, he will come to you and bring you the happiness and peace you need.
