Interests: "Somehow we've gotten the idea that we can forget all the regulations and get away with it. Times have changed, we say. We're 'liberated' at last from our inhibitions. We have Sex and the Single Girl now. We have freedom. We can, in fact, 'have it all and not get hooked.' We women can be predators if they wat to, as well as men. Men aren't men unless they've proved it by seducingas many women as possible - or as many men, for we may nowchoose according to' sexual preference,' We can go to bed with those of the opposite sex or those of our own. It doesn't matter. A mere question of taste, and we all have a "right" to our tastes. Everybody's equal. Everybody's free. Nobody is hung up anymore or needs to deny himself anything, In fact, nobody ought to deny himself anything he wants badly - it's dangerous. Its unhealthy. Its sick. If it feels good and you do't do it, your paranoid. If it doesn't feel good and you do it, you're a masochist. I have to confess that over the l

Once again I have entered the wonderful ...wild.....and crazy world of being a college student.  I have gone back to school to finish my next degree......so we shall see how this one goes. 

I continue to work at the resturant and if not for the people there I dont think I would have delt with this move and some of the drama in my life as well as I have.  If it not for God's amazing grace and unending love I dont think I would have survived at all!!  I am constantly reminded that God is in my corner (so to speak) rooting me on as I am trying to make some very needed changes to my life and as I am encountering more drama. 

I have been blessed with great friends there and they are becomming like family.  My life revolves around school and the resturant and my friends there.  I saw tonite how that resturant supported a fellow employee in her time of need.  There are people there who have befriended me and some of them are christians.  God is making this a little easier on me.....what a blessing. 

I have changed alot about me and my thinking on life for the good and i'm starting to see the positive impact it has on others which in the end I pay and hope will be a witness to those around me.  I truely want them to see God in me and I can only hope they can!!

And in one moment....you stop .....and you realize...that you are where you are suppose to be.......and you realize....your happy again....happiness is found in obedience to God!!!!

I have totally and reckless abandoned myself to God.  What other choice do I have?  I have approached a critical point in my life .....make a full hearted commitment to God....do I continue to walk a fine line of faith.......or do I let Him take over my life to make me into the witness and servant He wants?  We all at some point have to make the same decision. We have made an intial commitment but we allow that to become mundane and we don't take care of that relationship like we do with boyfriends or girlfriends or family.  It time that we (I) start becomming totally His. 

At the close of this year I have learned alot over the span of a year about myself......others and God and who He is.  My life is no longer mine and I am no longer in controll of it!!

Let us not forget this Christmas of the wonderful gift we have been given and as we enter a new year let us recklessly abandon ourself to the God who gave us His only Son.....who died for our sins...and start showing others that holidays and new beginnings aren't just for some people ......they are for everyone...no matter who they are!  So Merry Christmas everyone!!!!!!  God Bless!!   and a Happy New Year!!!

Matthew 1:23  Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is , God With Us.

John 3: 16  For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son that whosoever believeth on Him shall not perish but have everlasting life.

Just a thought.......have you ever wondered if the very crazyness we accuse ourselves and other of suffering from, when life around seems askew, perhaps is the soft whisper of  God...ever so quietly directing and helping us steer onto the right path that we are to take, to put us right where He wants us.  At that moment of truth we still have a choice of left or right and whether we listen to the subtle hints of God.  I have come to realize that I am where God wants me to be......even after making all the wrong turns.....and hitting rock bottom.....I still have managed by His grace to end up right where I belong.  Some of you may think I am crazy......but if crazyness is a means of God speaking to us ....am I still crazy.....???

Some small things have come to mind lately that I thought would be good to share with all.  My friend Sarah invited a while ago to join in on a young peoples groups that she went to every sunday nite.  I started hanging out with these people and made new friends which was really nice since christian friends has been hard to come by here in Harrisburg. Anyways the last time I was there we were looking at how important it was to be surrounded by other christains.  As we were talking about this I was reminded about my year at WWC where I was intensely surrounded by christain friends for an extended period of time and how much I miss that environment today.   I have seen others walk away from the body of Christ because they think they are strong enough to handle whatever they may encounter outside the church.....sadly they have chosen paths that will only bring destruction in the future to their lives.  But when surrounded and held accountable to christain friends the likely hood of that happening is decreased.  

And prayer really does work.....my cousin Sarah this weekend was surprised when one of her closest friends from PSU finally excepted Christ as her saviour.  Kienda has been stuggling with alot over the years and Sarah has been their for her through alot of it and has been praying that the Lord would work in her heart.  Well after two long years of praying Kienda made the big decision this weekend at a CRU retreat. 

Basically I just wanted to remind and encourage all who read this not to walk out on your christain surroundings for any reason.....we need other christains to pray for us....make us accountable for our actions....and to give us godly  advice when we need it. And please don't forget to pray saved or unsaved....everyone needs prayer.

Ok guys...i've decided to combine my two web pages into one and I like this better than my first one....so i've just copied and pasted some entries that are still true to my insane brain today...enjoy!!

 

My goal is to gratuate from college and then to move out of the country working on a medical missions team.  I committed my soul to missions along time ago and that is the one thing I see myself doing in life, anything else seems like it would be futile.  I want to live for my God and I want to work and help people who don't know my God. When i'm done with school I plan to move to the Island of Andros of the Bahamas, or to where ever the Lord leads me, to work on the mission there, that i'm helping build this summer, and to work at the clinic or hospital down there.

I also would like to get married sometime soon.  What would really make my life complete is if I found someone who would let me love them.  All I want to do is love my husband and serve him, work beside him, and be his partner in crime.  I want to love someone!!!

All I want is a simple life.  I want to work and earn everything.  My heroine is Ruth from the Bible and some day I would like to find my Boaz. 


Lyrics that explain my philosophy on life

I try to make myself fit inside your world
My time has been spent on being the right girl
How far away I am from where I need to be
I'm so tired of the useless fantasy

This is not what I need to be
This is not where I need to be

I'm not losing hope, i'm not blaming blame
I kno we both want love, we both feel the same
I'm moving forward to where I need to be
My life is spinning in this mystery

This is not what I need to be
This is not where I need to be

I try to be so perfect

 

#2
You come to me with your look of superiority
Have you asked yourself today how real is what you do believe
In one moment he will make me complete
Do I talk about it be apart of the elite.

Do what you say
Do what you do
Do what you say
Do what you do

You try to draw the words out of my mouth
Show me what to do but then i'll die if I live through you
We here to love and not to be maniputlated
To each his own and that should never un-destinive

Do what you say
Do what you do
Do what you say
Do what you do


Yes I have been hurt and left confused but make no mistake that no matter what you do to me I will always come out on top laughing and smiling.

A Prayer for All

God in heaven,  often times I find myself praying for myself and not for others.  I think that i'm the one who needs the prayer when there are others who are hurting and need a prayer of comfort. Protect the innocent and feed the hungry. Make those around me happy.  Lord I pray that if I can't make someone happy that you would bring someone into thier life that will make them happy and who will love them with more love than I can ever express.  Forgive those who have sinned against you and have fallen away from you.  Guide us through life and help us through the rough times and the share with us the good times. 


A Lament By Rachel

I can only imagine what it will be like when I walk by your side....
I can only imagine what my eyes will see when your face is before me
I can only imagine, I can only imagine.....
Surrounded by your glory what will my heart feel , will I dance for you Jesus, or will all of you be still,
will I stand in your presence, to my knees will I fall, will I sing halluejiah, will I be able to speak at all
Oh I can only imagine....I can only imagine
I can only imagine when that day comes, when find my self standing in the sun, I can only imagine when all I would do is forever, forever worship you....
I can only imagine....I can only imagine
Surrounded by your glory what will my heart feel , will I dance for you Jesus, or will all of you be still,
will I stand in your presence, to my knees will I fall, will I sing halluejiah, will I be able to speak at all

I can only imagine...


My Immortal  By Evenescence

I'm so thried of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
If you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
Cause your presense still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone

These wounds wont seem to heal
This pain is just to real
There is just to much that time cannot erase

When you cry I wipe away all of your tears
When you scream I fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years

But you still have all of me

You use to captivate me with your resonating light
Now i'm bound by the love you left behind

Your face it hold my once pleasant dream
Your voice chased away all that insanity in me

I tried so hard to tell myself that your gone
But though your still with me
I've been along and alone

 

Obie Snider (Poppop)

You welcomed me with a loving heart, God's love, and the arms of a grandfather.  You were one of my grandfathers and I felt like one of your grandaughters.  Now that your gone I feel the loss of someone special and close to me.  I'll miss you bright smile, your sparkling blue eyes, your love for life, and you weekly hugs and kisses.  You amazed me everytime you picked me when you gave me a hug.  I love you poppop and I'll see you soon. 


I love the farm....what can I say.

 

 

Let Him Heal    Written By Rachel Alexandre WWC 2003

He knows that you are broken
He knows that you are hurt
Your soul cries out within you
The pain to much to bear


Chorus:
Let Him heal your broken heart
Let Him heal your scars and wounds
Let Him pour His spirit on you
Let Him guide you to the end


Sick with notions in you head
You cry out to God above
You need Him to come and heal you
Heal your broken heart again


For all of you who haven't been able to keep up to date........I know I flit around like crazy.......but i'm offically a farm girl.....I live on a big dairy farm and my car has a John Deere license plate on the front.....and well there is paint missing on the front of my car from my last accident.
