My Quietness

Okay, I just found a verse the completely justifies my quietness!!!!!!!!!!!!
Read this!

1 Peter 3:3-4 3
Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as braided hair and the wearing of gold jewelry and fine clothes. 4Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight.

I love this verse! :)

Yah, so, I am totally bored and don't know what to post...oh, I know! More song lyrics! LOL, that seems to be my specialty. "Mirror" by Rebecca St. James... Here goes...

May the words of my mouth please you
dear God
May the thoughts of my heart say to you
All that I desire is to be with you forever
Lord I pray - I pray that You
Take me - Make me
Beautiful to You
Create me so - I mirror You
Take me - Make me
An image of You
Lord I want to mirror You
Let the words of my mouth please You
dear God
May the thoughts of my heart be as Yours
Cause all that I desire is to be here with
You forever
Lord I pray - I pray that you
Take me - Make me
Beautiful to You
Create me so - I mirror You
Take me - Make me
An image of You
Lord I want to mirror You
Break me out of my complacency
Breathe Your breath of life into my soul
Into my soul
May the words of my mouth please You
Take me - Make me
Beautiful to You
Create me so - I mirror You
Take me - Make me
An image of You
Cause Lord I want to mirror You

Winterfest

I went to a youth convention this weekend called Winterfest. Jeff Walling spoke and he was really good. I got a lot out of this weekend. Taylor Mason was there and he was so funny. He is a Christian ventriloquist. I loved Paco. There was also a sheep who I hadn't seen before but it was good. Kutless was also there. Bean and Bailey were there too. But it was a really good experience. I went to another one called Planet Wisdom last year and it was deeper but I like them both. I decided to talk to a friend who isn't a Christian and possibly write her a letter or something. I just need some advice so please pray for me that I can find the words to tell her. But it was a great weekend with a great message.

Sick

Well, I woke up this morning with the flu/cold (whatever you want to call it). I had a bad headache, stomachache, sore throat, and everything all at once. At the moment I feel better, so I decided to check email and stuff.
Mom also got it and is asleep on the couch, like I have been doing all day until now.
Nivek is getting better (figures) and is playing PS2.
I have been taking tons of vitamins and stuff trying to fight this thing by tomorrow, because I have class and I can't say I want to miss since I am already going to miss next Tuesday anyway (going on a trip). We had to cancel my piano and voice lessons, which I was not happy about (have to miss that next week too).
Anyway, my stomach is starting to hurt again, so I better go :(
Please pray that we all get well soon (by tomorrow).
Bye!

P.S. Sorry about the bad grammar and stuff... my brain is going crazy.

Prayer request

Please pray for Nivek to get over his cold/flu. And please pray for me not to get it any worse than I already do, but to get better. And for my parents not to get it.
We have a skiing trip planned, and my g-parents are coming. If we don't get over it, this could be bad...

"For You" lyrics

This is a really cool song, about friends I guess. It is by Michael W. Smith...

Sittin' in the rain
Water on your brain
Got a hole in your boat
Trying to stay afloat
Has got you down
Ive got a wind in my sail
Rubber boots and a pail
Ill throw you a line
Rest assured that I
Won't ever let you drown

Cause when you're up against the wall
You know I'll be here for you, for you
When you rise and when you fall
I'll always be here for you, for you

When the plans you make
Fall through and take you
For a loop
Or some bird has flown the coop
And left you stranded
Just lean on me
And together you see
Well carry the load
Even if we dont
Quite understand it

Cause when you're up against the wall
You know I'll be here for you, for you
When you rise and when you fall
I'll always be here for you, for you

Cause when you're up against the wall
You know I'll be here for you, for you
When you rise and when you fall
I'll always be here for you, for you

I just wanted to share this to my friends...this is my promise to you. I will always try to be there for you. But always remember that God will ALWAYS be there for you.

I have no idea why...

Okay, like the title says, I have no idea why I am posting this, but I guess God is telling me too.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. - Philippians 4:6-7

I saw this verse sometime in 2006, and have loved it ever since. It is pretty cool when you are feeling anxious about something, and then you ask God to give you a verse, and this one pops into your head.
