I was taking a walk the other day
I've been trying to do this to help get better with ballet, walk/run every day I can.
Well, this particular time, I decided to walk a little longer than usual. I wanted to look at the house my friends are looking to buy, and knew this next street looped around.
A soccer mom-type with an SUV full of kids drove past me. I see something fall out of the window and the car stop. You hear her telling one of the kids to go get it, and a kid crying inside about losing it.
I ran up to it, picked it up, and met the one child to give it to her.

The mom yelled, "Thank you!!" out the window at least three times

It's the little things...
<3

I feel like I need to pray more.
Especially right now.
I'm posting this in church... Haha
But really, I just really feel like whatever it is God told me of last year needs to be prayed out.
And I can't let myself get distracted by everything coming against me.
the Lord set me up to succeed. By putting people in my life to help me--like my friends at real life, close friends, the sysco lady letting me use the Joyce Meyer teaching, and other things.
I just must stay focused.
And pray.
And not lose heart.
He'll do His part if I do mine.
Besides, prayer is what opens the flood gates.
Some times we just have to be obedient and ask.

RAK.

I read a blog about random acts of kindness a lady did with her kids for her 35th birthday.
And it made me want to beast up my RAK game.
Then I thought, "I should start a blog about it!"
But, seeing as I already have 4 blogs, all with varying degrees of upkeep, I figure I'll just use this one for when I come up with random acts of kindness and execute them.

hehehehe
:)

working on a project I'm really excited about.

my hand is going to cramp.
But that's okay.

I think this is bigger than I realize.
And if not, then that's okay.
It'll be big to the ladies who do receive it.

I'd love to publish it, though.

Might as well

When I first got this week's schedule, I was a little sad. it was really odd and seemed like it would make the week difficult.
But, I figured it was probably only for the one week, so I would manage.

Little did I know that this was beyond me.

I got asked to open the shop after closing, which sounds insane, but really it helped me. It gave me extra tips that I need and an extra hour. It also made time go by quickly.
I planned on going to sleep early, but kept getting woken up. At about 11pm, I was finally drifting off to sleep when my phone rings. Pastor Glenn asked me if I could help with outreach tables on campus.
I usually would be working, but since my schedule was different, I was able to help.
Which meant a lot to them.

it's been an off week for a lot of people. It's interesting that so many of us have seemed to be facing oppositin at the same time.
But, we endure.

Helping on campus was really cool. I had never done it before (I've never even gotten to go to school) But it definitely was neat to help.
I'm  not usually extroverted, but I really felt like even if they didn't want to hear what information I had to give them that I may be able to offer some form of encouragement, just with being there. And that there would be those out there just hungry for what God has for them, that they'll come check it out.

I had one girl cuss at me. I laughed. Because, it really was funny.
she thought she was tough stuff, holding such dominance over me. Telling me, "F*** no" when she walked by first And then just saying, "Jesus Christ..." as she walked out. 
She didn't have to walk past us
And I don't think she realized she knew me.
I went to high school with her, had her for a class.
It just makes me laugh
And also sad, because she doesn't get it...

We had some persecution this time around, which was interesting.
It breaks my heart to think that there is so much against us even just inviting people... that simply because it's about Jesus, our allowance to do so is threatened. Especially when so many other things are allowed. Things that don't bring joy, or peace, or kindness. Just because someone gets offended about the truth... it breaks my heart...
it really does.
Don't they know that the thing they are rejecting is the very thing that will set them free?

My heart goes out...

Im a mystery in the making

I dont think we're meant to fully know somebody.
The efforts to accomplish this and the pain that comes with it when we fail isn't worth it.
Maybe it's that we chose not to understand, because someone once didn't fit into the mold we made for them. So when we find this out it shakes our world.
Walls get put up
Words are said.

I think there was meant to be mystery.
For me, at least.
Needless to say I've learned a lot recently.
Hoping I get it this time.
I think when so much happens in such a short time period, all there is to do to stay sane is to learn.
And carry on.

And dance in the car with my roommate as cars next to us laugh.
:)
We got a free movie rental. It wad pretty awesome. A random lady behind us gave us a code :)

Amazing how something so simple can completely brighten someone's day.
Super grateful that it wad mine and Holly's tonight :D

Wake up. September is over.

God is pretty cool.
He seems to have every situation laced with hope.
I can't help but believe Him.
With everything inside of me.

Its now October.
This is a month of new beginnings for me.
Regret is stupid
I'm taking my life back
And no one is going to stop me.
I'm living for me.
(Well, in Christ's terms, of course...)
