Empty handed, but alive in Your hands

"and after you have suffered a little while, the God of all GRACE who has called you to an eternal life in Christ, will Himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you" -1 Peter 5:10


So, today I want to thank God for His grace. I mean really, who else could take me from being as broken as I was at the beginning of the summer, to being as happy and optimistic and thankful as I am now? Noone. I have been renewed, I have been SO blessed, and I am just a happy girl! :) Life is SO good.

Last night, I finally got to hang out with my group of high school friends. We hadn't hung out all summer since everyone was doing their own thing. We had a blast catching up and sharing our summer adventures :) After everyone left, Natalie and I got to talk, really talk. We both went through sacrificing break ups earlier this year, both sacrificing the relationship for our walk with Christ. So, she is really easy to relate to. It was awesome :) I think we both needed someone to relate to. :)

Oh, PRAISE THE LORD, my big brother got his first "real world" job! He's working as a claims adjuster for Farm Bureau. He's getting all kinds of benefits and stuff. I am SO thankful that he could get that job as a fresh college grad because so many people with experience can't even get one. Such a blessing for our family! AND! bonuspoints! HE'S TRAINING IN WACO! so i get to hang out with him while I'm at school! yeah, I'm a little excited for him :)

and another plus to life.. the rangers beat the yankees last night.. great day to be a Ranger's fan!! :) I sure love my rangers!

Gosh, in three, THREE days, I will be in Belton! I am SO super excited and just dying to get there, but I have SO much to do before then!! I have to pack, take a final, and spend every moment I can with my friends and family before I leave.

God is SO good, and I am loving life, so much!

3days, love.
