God's Beautiful Creation

God is working in awesome ways....i can't describe it other than that...even though hard things may come he is always there, and he loves me for who I am and will never leave me. I am his beautiful and unique creation. There is no one else like me...he made me to be funny, caring, thoughtful, to love kids, to be myself, to have flaws and even be grumpy some times. He made me to be 5'7, hazel eyes, dark brown hair, a natural klutz...He made me to be strong at times.

At times I feel like all i want to do is stay in the sorrows, but he whispers into my ear that everything will be all right, I need to give it to him, he never gives me more than I can handle, and that he has something better for me. Something that is perfect and his plan. He doesn't make any mistakes....everything he makes is beautiful, and original.

Proverbs 31:30 -
 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; 
       but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.

1 Peter 3:4 - Instead, it should be that of your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God's sight

Romans 8:39 - neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Psalm 8:3-9 - When I consider your heavens, 

       the work of your fingers,
       the moon and the stars,
       which you have set in place,
 ⁴ what is man that you are mindful of him,
       the son of man that you care for him?
 ⁵ You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings ^[a]
       and crowned him with glory and honor.
 ⁶ You made him ruler over the works of your hands;
       you put everything under his feet:
 ⁷ all flocks and herds,
       and the beasts of the field,
 ⁸ the birds of the air,
       and the fish of the sea,
       all that swim the paths of the seas.
 ⁹ O LORD, our Lord,
       how majestic is your name in all the earth!

Being a kid was easy!!!

Sometimes I wish I was a kid, because being an adult sucks sometimes. As a kid you didn't have to worry about love, bills, work, college, etc...Being a kid you got it easy. Don't get me wrong there are awesome benefits of being an adult. Like: driving, making money, making your own decisions, etc. Its just right now in life i feel like i have two lives. I feel like around work, friends, and family that I have to act like nothing is wrong, and that i can handle anything. When I'm by myself...all i can do is think about stuff that makes my heartbreak, stuff that i wish i didn't have to say goodbye to.

Right now my big prayer is to just be myself in all situations, give it up to god and let him handle it and that i wouldn't dwell on it 24/7. A bible verse that has been helping me out is: Philippians 4:13. "I can do all things through him who strengthens me." I am still human, so i do stumble and fall more than i remember it. Anyways enough with the ranting, I know I have not written in here for a long time, but i've been super busy. I started working at Famous Daves last week as a hostess. I love it there.

By all four of my managers, i have been told they like me, i'm doing well, learning fast, do well under pressure. I also got told by my main general yesterday that in a few months there won't be an empty seat in the house thanks to me being the hostess. It made my day...i'm glad im doing well there. I have learned to answer the phones, do to-go orders, do the expo's (getting the meals ready for the waitress after the cooks are done with it), bus tables, get drinks for the tables when the server is ready, and well host XD Besides that, a few weeks ago i found out i got into Century Community College, and I will be starting that in January. So there are a bunch of blessings in the midst of stuff im going through. God is good :)

Thoughts

I never knew that you could get the answers you were looking for, but end up with more unanswered questions...It only made me more confused then I was. These are questions that in time I really would like answered, but I need to wait for God to show me when they will be answered. One thing I have learned this year is that I need to literally give everything to God, and in his timing he will answer. I have also learned that God's plan is a 100% better than the one I imagined for myself.

Philippians 4:4-7 has been a very good verse that has been a huge help. "Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. 5 Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; 6 do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through him who strengthens me."

These two verses just remind me that i need to thank God for the good and bad in life, give everything up to him, and he never gives me more than I can handle. Also that he is always there no matter where I am, what I go through. He is the best father, a girl can ask for....even if she doesnt always remember that.



Love,
