Well tonight I had some tickle fights with Eli and Sasha. The 2 got me when there was three of us, wrestled Sasha to the bunk, and then worked some muscle with Eli. He had sticky hands that wouldn't let go of his mum 'n dads blankets, grabbing on to doors and everything to keep from getting to bed. LOL wow, my stomach was sore from laughing. Both me 'n Eli lost it, we burst out laughing cuz I was dragging him, he was upside down, finally got him into bed! and Eli snorted. Good thing though, Sasha was sound asleep through all our laughing.
Rob and Iona are out. Iona had to speak at a church tonight. Rob is back from his 5 day trip at Juan de Fuca.
Yayyy!!! We're all together again!
Ummm well.. we went to Kamloops this past weekend. Lots-o-fun! We had dinner for Kimmy's grad, went to her grad, took ton of pictures, went to Marion's place to get ready to go out for the night.
The night was pretty good:) We went out dancing and stuff. The floor was dead, just me dancing out there lol. Kimmy, April 'n Gerald joined me. Jessica joined us too when she got there. There was this guy there who was doing some crazy moves! Man.. I was intimidated. I didn't go out on the floor that time. :S haha Anyhow, loved dancing.
After our boogy-ing, we got hungry. It was like 3 in the morning 'n we hit Dennys LOL. Yummm. Hot Chocolate is gooood.
Finally after 4 we got to sleep. Slept til close to noon and got ready.
Todaaaay, umm went to church. Almost didn't go. Was tooo tired in the morning. I just forced myself to get up. In the afternoon I hung out with Merci for mentoring time:) That was AMAZING. I picked her up, we got slurpies 'n went out to Fishtrap. My fellow winged-friends came over again (The geese visited us). This time they had lil WEE ones! Babies that looked like lil fluffs, perched bums and 2 lil feet. SO CUTE. Wanna take one home:( The mamma geese might give me quite the beating though. Ok.. keep the lil ones.
We talked about God as "LIGHT". Something I was encouraged by what Merci said and something that's been on my heart but she had said it so perfectly was the fact that when God shines his light on something ugly (in our life), it's not comfortable at all, we tend to hide or run the other way, but something she said was that His light draws something beautiful out of us. She used a cave analogy. Cave may not be so pretty but when it's light out and season for it, bears come out (and they are beautiful). I thought wow... Yeah, it could only be God who draws something like beauty of what was only ugly.
He takes away selfishness and draws us to a place where our world is not centered around ourselves. Draws us to place God in the middle, in the centers of our hearts, and care about others.
He takes care of our anger, and draws in compassion. Then we have mercy, tenderness, kindness...
The pass lil while it's been really hard. Spiritually. Felt beaten up. Deprived. Thirsty. Hungry. You could probably see that from my last posts. Blah. Just got tired. I needed help.
I realized something. I always knew it, but God really spoke to me that I cannot be spiritually independant. Just like how an island can't be... something all by itself. LOL well, I can't remember that saying but the point is that not any one person can make it all by him or herself. In whatever is coming up soon, the fact that I need help is sticking with me now.
Aright, I'm going to help Iona with planting her plants!
Reminder, we are risen with Him who has beared the cross.
He lives.
We live.
