Profound Words

So sometimes people say things that make me speechless. Like today my sister said, "People who live their life in fear seem to accomplish nothing." I thought about it and it hit me that she's right if we're scared of doing things or making choices or even of what happens next in our life (etc). If we're so scared of those things then how can we really have trust in God. He controls everything. So if we trust God more and trust Him to take care of us and give us what's best for us then we can accomplish what He has predestined us to do without fear. So I guess what she was trying to say was don'tet fear take over your life.

Paint,paint, and more paint?

So today we painted our play house a red/brown color. We had ALOT of fun. Paint on everyone's faces,legs, and arms. So after we finished we went to hose down everything (and everyone). That was part was interesting; a five year and a seven year old around a hose, and paint, gets everyone wet. So after that I took them inside and gave them a bath while my sister discovered paint all over the bathroom counter and tile wall. Ahhh, classic sibling relaxation and fun (check); cleanup (still working on it).

End of the school year!!!!

End of the year- stressful, busy, chaotic, totally awesome, wish it was over, can't wait till next year, why school? HIGH SCHOOL!!!!!! That point at the end of the year where you're starting to wish that you were already to summer. That's where I am now. But it's soooo worth it. High school is near!!!

All those things we want

You know all of those things that we want and we say that we HAVE to have to be happy? Well, I was thinking about this the other day and I came to the conclusion that we only want those because other people have them and to use them as excuses. Excuses such as: "I feel bad because I feel left out because I don't have that phone". When really you have just use that phone as an excuse for your bad mood. Why are you in a bad mood? Because we have put worldly things before God.
We can't trust our feelings and we can't let them manipulate what we do, say, and how we act. When we do that we make excuses that have nothing to do with te real problem. We can't put things before God. Nothing should distract us from our point in life of glorifying God.
