                      Mine

 

    This year is different, somehow the weather throws a lot of things/us off guard, and we don’t always like it. I’ve noticed it for sure, changes in me that were good/bad, but hopefully now it’ll be/stay normal; to be myself too.

    The sun is out, it’s wonderful. I may be indoors most of the time, but I’m enjoying the nice weather, it’s very helpful. Hopefully it’ll be warmer and not cold at night, so I can actually wake up without struggling to get up/falling back to sleep.

    I’ve been seeing who I’ve been this past 2 seasons-winter in spring too-I don’t like who I’ve been. I don’t know what went wrong with me, but I feel like I’m normal now, weather changes like this I think really effects how I act and handle things. I admit and repent my wrong actions, words-not bad words, and how I’ve been caring for myself in certain areas. I say I’m sorry to HIM, and I ask for forgiveness in what I’ve been/have done lately.

    I know all of us go through times in certain kinds of weather, seasons, or whatever the reason is, but if we keep following in HIS footsteps we’ll be better followers/servants to HIM. School may drive us nuts, family may be typical family/individual challenges, problems in job success, the disasters the past few months, and much more that makes us not be who we are inside. My advice, for me also, is to learn to listen to HIM more than ever and to let things that we can’t control out of our hands/put these in HIS hands. I’m not afraid to admit that I haven’t been myself fully, but I know I’m more myself now since I see how HE’s been in my life fully still/guiding me to good results in the end through everything, including thoughts that would normally come out and hasn’t-a wall is keeping the unneeded stuff back behind a super thick bad proof wall in my head.

 

                      Prayer

 

    LORD, you know who we are-inside/out, and how our world is right now. We thank you for creating beautiful things, animals, us, all forms of life, and followers of you. I pray that through our troubled time, we learn to walk with you more/more, and that we don’t hesitate to give you our burdens/hurts. Wherever we are in life, guide us to where you call us to go, and to repent/let go of what we do to harm ourselves/others. Show us your guiding light, and help us to be better people in this world. Show us how to be better wives/husbands-loyal/loving/honest/devoted to each other/more, for family relationships to be good/loving/honest, for individuals to find out who they are inside and bring the best out. There’s no need to hide who we are, good or bad, but there are ways to improve who we can be if we set our minds to it. I pray for everybody else in need, in every situation needed, for healing/guidance/more. Through praise, worship, messages/teachings, bible reading, gatherings/groups, and much more, I pray that your spirit flows in us and renews us as new living beings/children in your presence; including those who don’t know you yet. I pray this and so much more in your great/mighty name AMEN.

    Today was/is still good.

I couldn’t get my chair tires changed today, but once my insurance authorizes it it’ll be done. I got my seat rest fixed/my headrest tightened though, this was more important than my four tires due to how my driving has been lately.

I played on my new computer more today, I get used to how it works everyday, and how to connect to different wireless connections; practice makes perfect knowing that I haven’t had a wireless computer before.

I have a great highlight of my day today, on the public bus, it shows how much skills I have for accepting others/being a counselor someday; for those with challenges/disabilities. You would think the lady I saw is crazy, but she’s not, she just needs to be accepted for who she is. She has an adult son she said, and she carries around a small blue bear as her child, wrapped in a mini coat/a blanket. I can relate to this in some way, I may not be in her mental/security state, but I had an imagination of stuffed animals being real, but I can still enjoy these animals for comfort more than fun. The interesting thing was that she felt safe with it, talking to it/stuff like a real child, but I played along with her when we talked knowing that someone like me cares enough to be supportive. I feel good about it, I don’t see any harm in having an animal as a child to nurture/care for, I believe it helps her to feel part of the world and I fully understand that; it keeps her mind going by feeling like a mom to the bear. This helped me to see more of why the challenged/disabled need support from others, and she’s one of the few people I run in to that opens my eyes to how open my heart is for others/to be a counselor.

Tomorrow night is Mosaic’s worship practice, I need to be there for Sunday’s 3 services, so I know what’s needed to be mostly prepared. It’s a before 5am wake up to be there by 7am, but it’s worth it.

I need to go to bed soon, I need to be up by 7am tomorrow for bible study after 9am. Later gator.

                      Prayer

 

    LORD, you provide us with more than we can imagine, thank you. I pray that as we follow you more, and deeper every day, that you show us your light and love in us. wherever we are in life, and no matter how many natural disasters there are right now, I pray that you help/guide us where we’re supposed to be. Show us how to live in your presence as we grow and learn. Thank you FATHER, I ask this/more in your great name, AMEN.

    It’s Monday, yay.

    No more school until the fall, I need the break. I’m glad I’m schoolwork free, I can sleep without falling asleep in my work. Thursday night last week was my last day. I got one of my grades, but I’m still waiting for the second grade in Psychology 201A, I got a ‘B’ and 3.00GPA in my Reading 115 class-both classes will give my total GPA for Spring Term 2008.

     I got something that I really needed, I knew eventually that I’d get it, when the time was right. Someone at church had a laptop that was going to be sold online soon, I happen to need one by searching with hope and patience, he said I can buy it from him. Last night for a half hour, I got to see and explore it, to see if I’m interested in buying it still. I knew I’d buy it knowing I needed it, but looking at it helped to see how much it’s worth and if it fit what I needed, it definitely does. I’m paying 300 for it, plus the backpack for it=30, which is 330 for it. It was first set for 500, but he said 300 for me. I’ll probably give him more, because it’s worth it, I’ll see how my income is before I know if I can pay more. today for almost 2 hours, I played with it more, I quickly learned the basics of it, as I usually do-I’m into computers enough to learn things like this quickly. It’s well worth buying the computer, I know my old laptop now is beyond old/still works, 8-years-old going on 9 I think; it definitely sounds old-I’ll use it until it’s mostly to all dead=soon I know for sure.

    I get my chair fixed/get new wheels tomorrow, yay, but boring too. Oh well, I need it done to avoid bad driving problems, and whatever is going on with it right now.

    Besides this, I’m still keeping busy, and enjoying the nice weather so far. I did 3 hours of data entry in 1-1/2 hours today, plus more office stuff at Mosaic Church.

    I better go fly to bed, I need to be up before 8am, which lately I still can’t get up on time-school is out and there’s no reason why I can barely get up still; I keep pushing my snooze button/falling back to sleep and barely wake up in time to leave on time. Oh well, I’ll manage it soon. Later gator.

                      Prayer

 

    LORD, you’re good to us. You help us in tough times, and in good times. I pray that wherever we are in life, in the U.S. or other part of the world, that protect us with your holy spirit. I pray that you heal the sick and needy, show us your light through our eyes and hearts that we follow you no matter what goes on life. Show us how to live in your presence, to be faithful/honest, and to be your child/servant in this world full of disasters/more. In parts of 2 of the songs on Sunday, ‘Oh LORD our LORD, how majestic is your name in all the earth…’ and ‘Beautiful is your name-2x, Yahweh’, you are more than we can imagine. Show us who we’re created to be, and that our calling is fulfilled beyond what we think and see. Thank you for everything, we love you. I pray this and more in your holy name, AMEN.

It’s Tuesday, I have one final quiz left, yay.

I had my reading final today, which took me a

half hour to do, but I hope I at least got more than half right knowing it covered 12 chapters and included vocabulary stuff.

Thursday is my psychology quiz, I really hope I pass it, I don’t want to see another ‘f’ on my quiz. By turning in all my school stuff in last Thursday for the whole term, a dozen papers, I hope it raises up my grade. At least attendance and participation is part of my grade, it helps me some in class.

    I’m kind of bored, but I should use this time to finish my psychology stuff, one minor thing left to do. Time to fly to fun and school work, later gator.

                      Prayer

 

    LORD, we have failures in our lives, sometimes they get to us and we tend to hide. I know this for sure. This term in psychology I’ve gotten below 60 percent on all the 4 quizzes and 60 percent on the practice quiz last night. After seeing the fifth ‘F’ I lost it, but I cried out to you the pain of knowing I failed the quizzes and you’ll get me through this, and I pray that I pass this last one next week as my final day/quiz. Many have different failure or feeling down situations, but you guide is to succeeding. I pray that as we seek/follow you, we see your love in us. Wherever we’re struggling in, keep us strong, show us that if we keep going we’ll see the results and answers in the end. Help us to walk in your footsteps no matter how tough life is for us, failure doesn’t have to take over our lives, you take over our lives. I pray this and more in your holy and mighty name, AMEN.

             June 5, 2008. Thursday

 

    It’s June already, time does fly by fast. This past month almost, I’ve been very very busy with school, I have 3 more days-including today at 1pm and 6pm-left until spring term is over. I’m more than ready for a break. In fall 2008 term, I’m registered for my 2 classes, more like 3 with 2 parts to Spanish combined. I’m taking ‘first year-first term Spanish’ and a 2 day class on ‘the 7 habits of success’ I think it is. I’ll survive the second class, despite it being 5 hours both days from 8am-1pm, 2 Friday’s on October 31 and November 7. I have my half time in for sure, 5 credits for Spanish and 1 credit for the 2-day class. Spanish may be at night from 6.30-9pm on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s, but it’s worth taking.

    I’ve been way behind in all my psychology class, homework wise, but as of yesterday I’m fully caught up and I’ll turn in about a dozen papers/stuff in. I hope I can get all of them back next Thursday, which is the last/final day for the class. This weekend helped me get caught up, I do/finish my homework for my reading class in class while my instructor teaches or right after a quiz-last Thursday I started doing it this way knowing I had 2 weeks left of school/my psychology can’t be behind any longer-and I turn it in before I leave class. Now, I can say that I’m caught up in psychology and I can focus in studying for both finals next Tuesday and Thursday, reading on Tuesday and psychology on Thursday.

    Besides being super busy at school, I’m still hanging out with friends/going to church/volunteering during the day, it frees me from doing schoolwork 24/7 almost and keeps me from overloading my brain too much.

    I guess I should go, I need to organize my school stuff for later today and put it away before I fall asleep doing it, it’s almost 1am right now. Sleep is good when you won’t be home until after 10pm today, being up for 48 hours won’t work due to falling asleep in class, sleeping won’t help me learn in class/it won’t prepare me for my finals. Later gator.

                      Prayer

 

    LORD, you know our hearts and our lives. As we struggle in life you guide us in the right direction to peace and love and forgiveness. I pray that your holy spirit flows inside us, that through our daily activities we seek to you when things go wrong and routines get changed. We’re living for you, and our heart beats for you. Wherever we are in life, I pray that your guiding light shines through our hearts and our body, that we feel your presence changing our lives to who you created us to be. Thank you FATHER, for everything. I pray this and more in your mighty name, AMEN.
