Good day everyone!!!! :) I hope you are all doing well! Today where I live it's beautiful weather and I'd just like to praise God for it! :) Here is a thanks giving prayer I made up:
Dear Heavenly Father,
I thank you for this glorious day! You're presence is among us. I thank you for that alone! I thank you for my friends, family, and my life. Many people do not deserve to die but do. I thank you for all the lives that you save. You are the saving God. The almighty and creator of all things. Thanks you for colors. With out colors we wouldn't see your beauty fully and though some days I maybe mean or angry or grumpy, I know that you are near. Thank you for being always here.
~Amen
I know that was probably not the best prayer for you to read but, I just felt like saying a symple "Thank You".
So, school is starting soon and I'm sure most of you aren't excited. Or at least some of you. I'm mostly nervous because this is my Freshman year and I saw all the school work that my sister had to do. :( I don't care to do Geography because I'm not interested in it. I really don't want to do Biology because I don't want to dissect anything that is in there because i know that what ever is in there is needed there and it's all good! My mom says that I have to take it anyway which I'm not so thrilled about. I just have to seek guidance and help from God. Say a prayer for me if you can!
So, here are a few quotes that I found today. I just enjoyed them SO much!
"Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?"
"You must follow your dreams and listen to your heart. Do not be afraid of the world. God has a plan for you, and it may not be what you expect. Remember what our Lord said- 'Do not fear, for I am with you.' "
Yesterday I started reading a book called, "Violet's Hidden Doubts" by Martha Finley. It's a great faith book. It's so good! I encourage all to read this. :) One quote in there particularly struck me. I want to share it with you. "The Sun will chase away my dark thoughts."
