Walk in His authority.
Maybe instead of getting a tattoo that mean something important to me. Like something meaningful, I should just draw one on everyday, then everyday I am reminded of that thing. People forget too quickly. This way I can change it also. Todays tattoo a flowered vine bracelet with Matthew 10:8 on the inside of my wrist. :]
love story
When you love someone you want to spend every second of ever day with them and want to know every part of them. The thought of even one day without them is heartbreaking because you want a lifetime with them. That is why I live the way I live everyday. I am in love with someone that never stops wooing me, or loving me. :]
June is nearing an end
I told my boss today about leaving in the fall for Idaho. She laughed pretty hard when I told her that I was moving to Idaho because at the moment she was eating a baked potato for lunch. Ha
I got an email yesterday from one of the program directors telling me that they have not fond housing for me yet but the other director would be willing to house me for the first few weeks. She also said that when my parents and I visit they would let us stay with them.
Other than that news, I have been mostly working and swimming alot and trying to find time to spend with friends. Ania was here Sun and Monday and last night my sister and I went to Open mic night with Jessica. It was a good time as always. Jessica is so funny I can't even believe it. Having the 3 of us girls together was so great!
Hopefully today I will have time and inspiration to do some more work on my most recent painting. It is so good so far and I am liking it more and more every time I work on it. I will try to post a pic once I am done. It just doesn't photograph well, I tried taking a pic of it before but it looked awful. The painting is on a black board to start and it is a dark painting so when I photograph it you can hardly tell what it is, or it has weird glares. I guess we will see. Other than that I have no other news that I wish to report.
You will never be happy, until you meet the Creator of joy.
I hate that it is so hard to get people to give God a chance. It is so hard to get people to understand how awesome He is. I think about it alot and it makes me so sad. He is so awesome and works incredible miracles.

God still speaks
Cool story. On the 12th my family flew out to Nevada for a memorial in memory of my Nana. A bunch of family was there and it was really a great time.
On the flight there (before a layover) I got a seat on the other side of the aisle from my family. My sister was a bit sad about it but we were just an arms reach away from each other, just in case we decided that we really needed to high five or something.
I was seated next to a lady who was prob in her early 50's. She kind of reminded me of Pastor Shelli. I didn't think much of it since I have flown alot and often times next to strangers, No BD.
About half way through the flight I started to feel God's presence really strong. I was reading at the time and lost all attention on the book and felt myself almost begin to shake because of how strong His presence was. I started getting words for this woman next to me, and had like a vision of me praying for her. I tried to ignore it and go on with reading but I couldn't. I wanted to tell her so badly and attempted small talk a few times in hopes that it would help. It didn't. I was like "Ok God I'll give her the word I just dont know how to bring it up...... Give me her name at least. Nancy maybe? No not Nancy...... uh"
Finally the plane was getting ready to land and I just went for it.
"So this may seem random but about half way through the flight I felt like God gave me a word for you."
She looks at me kinda shocked "wait what"
"I think God gave me a word for you. Mind if I share it?"
She told me I could so I did.
She thought about it for a min and told me what she thought it meant. It had to do with the reason she was flying that day and what she had been thinking alot about during the flight.
I asked if I could pray for her and she said I could.
So I asked her what her name was "Becky"
Im like " I knew it was something that ended in a Y" haha
So I prayed for her and left it at that.
I really hope it blessed her. It is the first time that has ever happened to me like that. It was so cool.
I am now praying that God give me words for 5 diff ppl a week. I really hope He does.
I just thought it was cool how much God really does care about everyone. He cared so much about this lady that His presence was so strong around her, like He was trying to comfort her. It was beautiful.
I hope it really blessed her to know that.

Its amazing what a bit of time with my Best Friend can do. I woke up this morn in a less then pleasant mood, and a headache to go with it. I had to go straight to work. On the way they I had a chance to just talk things through with my Best Friend and ask that He step in and change things. How faithful. He did! My day at work was great. I taught for 2 hours then had an hour break which I used to swim then taught an intermediate class for the next two hours before being done.
I love how faithful God is. I love when things are looking terrible and all I do is ask for a little help, and BAM, He helps alot!!
I wish people who are anti- God would just know. They are missing out in so many ways.
I love my Lord so much. I can't think of anything else that I have ever tried or seen or heard that came even close to comparing to the greatness of knowing Him and having an actual relationshop with Him. Better than life!!

Bogie award..
A long time back My dear friend Beka nominated me for the "Bogie award".. Thought I should finally accept and full fill the given duties. Haha
The instructions for this award are to say where I want to be in 10 years time, and then award 10 other awesome bloggers with the same award.
Rather than send it to 10 other bloggers I am going to give it to anyone who faithfully reads this blog. (esp those who don't blog on their own, maybe now they will get one)
Ten years from now????
Oh man.... that seems far away. I have many ideas of where I would like to be but I have never ended up in the place I had anticipated to be.
My desires from now until ten years from now include: having finished my missions training and have traveled to every continent in the world.
To be bilingual at least (hopefully multilingual)
To work in Ethiopia, Ghana, and some south American Countries.
To write down the testimonies of the important people in my life as well as the stories of those I work with on the missions field.
TO work with Rafiki and or Voice of the Martyrs.
To have an even more intimate relationship with my Savior.
To walk with Him and enjoy Him.
To be bold and step out when He asks me to.
To do what Jesus commanded us, to heal the sick, cast out demons, love everyone, and share the good news.
I have always wanted to own a Coffee shop and sell things made by people in third world countries and send a majority of the proceeds back to these less fortunate beautiful people (that is only if I can't be living there with them)
To marry a man in the ministry and partner with him in the Lord's work.
I suppose I am a dreamer. But God gave me a piece of His place for me and a piece of His heart for people, and I have great hopes for where He will take me.

Prospective drawing
I talked my mom into doing some prospective drawing with me today. I took out an arranged the tea pot and cups that Han got me for graduation. My sister came down when we were almost half done and decided to join us.
This pic is of all three of the finished drawings >>>>
mine is a bit cut off on the bottom but not too badly.
It was a fun project and hopefully we will do more in the near future. (My sisters is the top one and my mom's is the middle, leaving mine as the bottom one naturally.)
It was a fun time all in all. One thing led to another and before we knew it I was creating a blog for my mom. Ha
In case you are interested here is the link
http://mylifeindoilies.blogspot.com/
I am not sure how much she will actually use it, but I have the password so who knows what sort of damage I can do on it. I already took the liberty of filling in her interests with my sister and Dad's help.
