Allergies and other things...

Life is pretty exciting right now! Allergies are pretty bad...bad enough that I took Benadryl last night (at least I slept really well!)...but, it's not as bad as it has been in the past, so I'm thankful for that!

Last night my Bible study group met at my apartment, and it was wonderful! Such great fellowship and studying of the Word...we are working through Acts and were in chapter 5 last night, the story of Ananias and Sapphira--which is a kinda scary story, LOL. We talked about that and other things related to the story for over 2 hours. I seriously am so thankful for this group, because I can be completely honest about who I am, what struggles I have, etc., and they are there to help me through them...so awesome.

Still preparing to lead worship at the youth rally...I'm really getting excited about that! I can't wait to see all of the youth, as well as my friends who are going to be attending...but MORE importantly, I cannot wait to see the Lord at work! It is going to be such an incredible experience!

I will be trying from now on to not write novels on here...starting today. :) Sorry for making them so long--I just have so much running through my head!

Last thought: I have decided that it is okay to be positive a majority of the time...in the past, I've been told that I was "too positive" about things...and I have begun to realize that that is not the case...and I am happy the way I am! I do not see things through "rose-colored lenses" by any means--but I see the potential for good in nearly every situation...and that's okay. More on this later...

May my mind today be filled with thoughts about the Lord...
