This weekend was actually pretty fun. On Friday I forgot I didn't have football practice, so I got to hang out with a few friends after school 'til dad came and got me. Then I went home, and just chilled all day, since I didn't have anything else to do since I thought I had practice. Oops hah.
Well, on Saturday, I went over to Courtney's house to help her move some things around. Then Mindy came to to her house to help us too. We got done with a lot that day and afterwards we just hung out for a while, played us some CoD(Call of Duty) and GoW(Gears of War). That was pretty fun. Then Mindy had to leave, and Courtney and I went to Country Cookin for dinner, which was good. So Saturday was the highlight of my weekend hahaha.
Well, today I went to church like I normally do, but I think that the sermon was much needed, though I don't remember it. I took a very non needed nap today, so I don't remember a lot. I hate taking naps sometimes because they always take up so much time that I could be using to spread the Word of God to people, or just loving others. I also think that I have a hard enough time going to bed on time, so I don't need a nap to wake me up in the middle of the day so I won't sleep that night
Anyway, after church, I went hiking with Zack, Garrett, Michael, Kasey, and Matt. Paris was going to go, but she got sick, so that's okay. Hope she gets better soon. We were going to go to Dragon's Tooth, but we parked in the wrong place, so we decided Saw Tooth Ridge was a better one to do than walking 9.1 miles up and back hahah. We got to the top of Saw Tooth Ridge and decided to just sit there and take in the beauty of God's work with the view that we had to look at. It was then that I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that I felt God's presence, though it would not have seemed like it. I believe that God was truly with us as we went about the day. After we left we went to Taco Bell, which was definitely a good place to go, because I haven't been there in a really long time haha.
I feel like we tend to always go to the same places, so going to Taco Bell was definitely a good change in the mix. I believe that if we truly understood that we do have other choices, then we would never get bored of doing the same things over and over again, because we tend to think that when a new restaurant opens, that it's the only place we can go to to eat, and then we lose sight of the choices that have been there for us since before that new place opened up.
Now I'm just sitting here thinking of things off the top of my head to write to you since I don't really post a lot. I think that there is definitely more that I could post about if I only thought to write it down because my goal for this thing is to get a good majority of my high school career on it, which I am definitely doing a pretty good job so far of it.
The David Crowder Band in the background to the typing noises that come from my fingers gives me the sense of sanity that I need to get me to tomorrow before I go to school. I'm sitting here listening to this song and the thoughts that go through my head are the same as the chorus to the song: "He loves us. Oh how He loves us..." This song gives me the hope that I need to get through the days that are really tough, which is why I love the fact the the praise band played it at church, because it's a pretty upbeat song which also gets the message of His love out. I just love listening to songs like that. That's all for Sunday haha.
Monday is tomorrow, and we have to go back to school for another 5 day week, which should be fun, because we have to get our football team ready for Grundy, and our Volleyball team ready to win whoever they face in the Regional Quarterfinals. Good luck Vball team!!
That's all I have for you right now. I kind of fell asleep making this hahah. Well, hope you enjoyed it. Good bye
