Jr High Retreat(:

I went to the desert with the Jr Highers last weekend and I had so much fun. God did such amazing things and moved so powerfully. I absolutely loved being their leader and helping them find Jesus. It was awesome..here are some pics to prove it.

my little cousin isn't so little anymore..

my amazing room!

"ron! we need a picture or this whole trip will have been a waste of time"

prayer request

you may or may not know but over a month ago I injured my leg doing my last theater show of high school. we still to this day are not sure what exactly I did. so I have two prayer requests. first that the doctors would be able to figure out what is wrong and that my almighty Jesus would bring healing. and secondly I ask that you would pray for my provision for my medical bills that are already starting to come in.
thanks
love ariana(:

I know there's a time and a season for everything. So now what? Am I supposed to take it all down? Or will it forever stand as a memorial?

i will

i will praise you in this storm. i will lift my hands. you are who you are no matter where i am. every tear i cried you hold in your hand. you never left my side and though my heart is torn. i will praise you in this storm.

wow

I was talking with Evan earlier and I realized today is Independence Day. Which brought me back to last independence day and what I was doing, when I was suddenly struck by a strange thought. I asked Evan if he knew what Thursday is. Well Thursday marks a year since we hopped on a plane and flew to Ireland. A year since I went back to the place where I left my heart. And a year since Evan fell head over heels for that country. I miss it so much. Not the country as much as the people. This is painful. Not going back there hurts a lot. I wish sooo much that this was Gods will for me this year. I mean my cousin is there now. I wish I could be there with him. 3 months in that country! So obviously this is just my wishes but I am content knowing that it isn't Gods will. It was hard at first. Starting to get easier because I know I am where God wants me to be now. But the pain of missing someone and the urgency to serve God in that place is still there. I just can't believe a whole year has passed since July 7th when these photo's were taken....

reflection can be a beautiful thing...
