Speechless

I am just speechless.  This last week has been just amazing, tiring, and full of excitement.  The same girl that was taken from my house nine months ago was returned to my families care.  It has just been so awesome.  People are running around in circles and they have no idea what they want to do.  This thing is not over yet as the courts have a hearing today to determine how much longer she will stay with us.  This is just god working throughout the people involved in this case.

A Different Perspective

Christmas is coming up on us extremely fast.  The hustle and bustle in the malls, and the running around trying to get everything done.  The lights and decorations of singing Santa clauses in your front yards.  Most people including me take a deep breath when Christmas is over because it takes a large load off of you.  As we approach it in two weeks try not to worry about it so much.  Do not worry about if you are going to get everything done in time.  Focus on Jesus being born.  He came on this world so that he could die on the cross to save our sins.  Jesus came into the world in some nasty, smelly, and uncomfortable conditions, and he left the world in painful and nasty conditions.  Just think of how much he had to love us to do all of that for us.  Just sit back and enjoy the birth of our Jesus, because that's is how we can have eternal life.

It is Just that Span of Time.

  Do you not love the span of time , in school, in between Thanksgiving and Christmas.  NOT.  That span of time is the worse time of the year that you are ever expected to do school.  Thanksgiving break is around a week long.  Then you come back to school in a slump because you just had a whole week off from school.  After you get into the mood of school again you figure out that Christmas break is just three weeks away.  Immediately after you just go into ultra antsy and panic mode.  What am I going to get this person, will I finish all of my shopping, then the last question is will I get through school first?  That span of time is the longest time of the year when you want it to be the fastest.
