I Apologize for such a Random Thought type of blog entry today..
First, I wanted to let everyone know that the Fellas did not make it to State Meet in Cross Country. They competed at Regional’s with 180 other fellas and against 24 other teams. And Aaron got 52nd place and the team got 8th place out of 24. I am still super proud of how well they finished and looking forward to next year to see how well they do.

Second, I have to admit that the last 3 months I have been being a big ole pouting brat. I have been praying for God to help me in a certain area concerning some relationships. And over the last 3 months a few sweet ladies have reached out to me, invited me to lunch or dinner or to just talk or just a huge hug. And because it was not the ones I wanted them to be, I turned them down. (Not a proud moment of course) The other day I was listening to someone talk about the things they were struggling with, and I found myself relating to what she was feeling. Because it was not long ago that my family was enduring the same kind of thing. And I found myself enjoying her company, just talking, and listening and laughing. After I dropped her off I had a convo with God. I finally got a visual of what he was doing in my life, while I was too busy building that wall up around me, and questioning so many things, HE always knows what I need, and he always sends the right people my way. It is time for me to be confident in the person I am. To appreciate what and who I have NOW, and let go of all the rest.. Most of ALL, to know that God loves me and watches out for me, even when I take the bad roads in life from my horrible decisions.. He did not give up on me, he just waited for me to come to my senses and come running back to him. He embraced me in his wide open arms. I am ever so grateful for that..And thank you to those ladies who did reach out to me and minister love to me. It did not go un-noticed.
Third, a certain fella taught me something over the last few months. About Faith.. He has a hat rack, and at the beginning of cross country season he removed all his hats from the rack, and he said that he was making room for all the medals he was going to win this year. At the end of the season his rack was full of medals. He stood strong on his Faith, and it paid off for him. I want to stand strong on my Faith and see many things come to pass in my life..I think we forget how amazing and loving the God we serve is,. Nothing is impossible for him, We just need to get out of the way, and let him do his thing..
