Long Time No Blog!

Wow...things have really been poopie regarding my blog...haha. Well, I don't think much has really happened lately and I just haven't had anything to really blog about. Actually, I've been neglecting a lot lately.
I'm taking Christian Life Classes at church every Sunday. It's to learn more about the Christian faith and to prepare for baptism which is coming up at the end of May. I really think that I'm going to take that step in my faith and get baptised, I've been thinking about my testimony lately too, it kind of scares me to put all those thoughts and feelings together in words about my walk with God and how it's been and how it came to be and all that. I kind of feel like, who's really going to want to listen to that? Who cares about my story and what I've done? I'm kind of shy about sharing it with the church.
I also feel like I need to do something that would help me to grow better in my relationship with God, but I don't know what. I feel like God is calling me to do something new and exciting and something I would really enjoy but at the same time grow and develop my relationship with God. I've been looking around a different mission work pamphlets, but I don't think I'm ready for those yet, and doing camp counselling has crossed my mind a lot but I don't know how to get into that.
I'd like to ask my friends out there who read this for prayer in hopes that my questions will be answered, and that I will find what God is calling me to do this coming summer. I want to spend it honouring God and growing in Him. Thanks for reading, and I apologize for the long wait on an update.
Until next time, God Bless.

Under The Weather

I haven't been feeling very motivated to do much the past couple of days, but I haven't been feeling all the great health wise either. At the beginning of Spring Break I developed a cold, just like any other cold so I wasn't too concerned about it and it pretty much went away, but the past few days I've been feeling ill again but in a different way. I feel tired, my stomach feels upset but I haven't been physically sick, I have trouble sleeping, I lie in bed feeling really warm but yet I shiver from the inside-out, and usually a headache comes into play somewhere. Overall, I'm feeling pretty poopie.

I was also really grumpy today, most likely because of lack of sleep and not feeling all that great and spring break was over and it was back to school today and I just didn't have the patience or want to be there and it just seemed like everything was falling out of place and not going right. I prayed for patience and strength to get through the day without being too negative, I don't like to be seen as a grumpy, mean, or negative person and I really wanted my mood to lift so I asked God to be my rock throughout the day.

I was supposed to meet up with two of my girl friends from high school for our monthly dinner date type thing we do, but because of feeling under the weather, I had to cancel and felt pretty bad about because we always have so much fun together and I don't get to see them very often, but of course being the good friends they are, they understood and we're going to try and reschedule for the next week or so.

I basically just spent the night resting, I actually had a nap from like 4:30pm until 8:15pm, it was really nice and very much needed, I just hope I can still get to sleep at a decent hour tonight now.

I pray that whatever illness is in my system and bothering me right now, that God will lift it and help get me back feeling normal and healthy and ready to face anything. I praise God, that even though I'm not feeling 100%, that I am blessed with the chance to rest and take it easy and have almost 4 hour naps in the comfort of my bed.

I have a couple of other topics in mind that I would like to blog about, but this is already quite lengthy and they are completely different topics, so hopefully I'll be able to keep them in mind and be motivated to post again tomorrow.

Thanks for reading and until next time, God Bless.
