So Very Excited!

Hey guys!
    So I'm super excited right now! I've felt convicted to rededicate my life to Christ  lately (over the last 2 months) and this weekend I officially signed up for it! I'm going to get baptized and I'm so excited! My mentor at church is going to baptize me! Caton is such an amazing person and woman of God! I'm so blessed to have someone like her in my life to help guide me. I just can't believe how much God has changed my heart over the last year. My life is all about Him and I absolutely love it!
   Also I've felt convicted to be bold and to get out there among the people and not be scared. To just go and help recruit some volunteers for our Children's Ministry. Not even just with that but to just be bold and not hide in my shell. When I first moved here that's all I did. I hid in my shell and didn't really peek out for anything. If I went to any social events I would still be in my shell and I would keep to myself. I feel God leading me to do more and to step out of my shell. I can do this, He is my backbone and I can do all things through Him. I know this sounds cliché... But I love Jesus so much. I want praise His name every single day. No exaggeration at all. I worship Him so much just because I long to praise Him. Jesus has changed my life and every time I learn more about Him and who He is I fall even more in love. Crazy!
    On another note, everything else is going well. Going to go get my license tomorrow if all goes well. They may not be open. I'm not sure. I got most of my homework done! All I have left is a paper... It's due Tuesday. So I have tomorrow night and some of Tuesday to get it done! Not to worried, it only needs to be 1,000 words which isn't much at all. I'm quite good at writing. Also I've slacked on my chores a bit... I got my laundry done.. but not my bathroom or vacuuming. Shame on me. That has to be done tomorrow also or dad is going to upset. No need for that!
    I go to NC in 3 weeks and I'm SO excited! Like so so so excited! I can't wait to see my mommy! I miss her dearly! I'm hoping I'll be able to see my uncle... I'm hoping that he is still holding on when I arrive.. He's fighting a terminal illness and is in the last few weeks.. or month. That's my whole reason for the trip. Bless his heart... I love him so much. I'm really worried though. He was telling my mom that he was just ready to go and to pass away because he was tired of fighting and wasn't strong enough anymore. I want him to be happy and comfortable. If that means leaving before I see him that's okay... I just want him painless. He's been fighting cancer for 8 years now.. He's fought long enough.
    Well that's enough writing for one night! That's the things on my heart! If you read this, please pray for my leg.. I got injured while running last week and need a quick healing so I can get back to working out!

Love,
Miss Elizabeth <3

Well,

   Not much happened today! I kept myself quite busy though! I went and checked out the car I want at the Ford dealership. I won't be getting it for another 6 motnhs, but hey, doesn't hurt to look! I also cleaned my current car. He definitely needed it. Yes, it's a he. It's a giant green Chevy Blazer and I named him the Hulk. Anyways lol I also found out that my car needs the radiator flushed. Which is like 90 bucks! Completely insane! I'll never be able to save up for the new car as long as this car is sucking up all my money! PSY Class went well. This teacher is a hoot! Night classes are always the most entertaining in my opinion. I always have the wakiest teachers! Overall today went good. Well. I'm gunna go!

Love,

Hey there,

         So this is my new blog! I'm so excited! I also write in a physical journal! However, I'm pretty excited to have a journal online. I enjoy typing a little bit more! So anywho!

         A lot has happened lately! I moved from NC to FL almost a year ago (May 2013) and up in NC every year you need to have an inspection done on your car to get your tag and such renewed... Well, turns out there is no way for me to get my inspection down here and because of circumstances I am not able to drive up there and get it. So now I have to register my car here and get all this stuff done that is going to probably take all of my savings and I'm stressing a little bit. This is just the iceberg. However, I don't want to rant at all!

         I can't even explain how blessed I am. God has blessed me with so many things, including an internship teaching His children and just stepping out of the box and becoming the woman of God that He wants me to be. He is shaping me every single day and I love Him so very much and I can't even explain it. I literally want to worship His glorious name every single day and just shout His praise!  So many things are chaos right now but I haven't been this happy in a very long time. He gives me this inner peace that just makes going through life so much easier and better. God is still working in my heart though. I have felt convicted lately to help get people to join the ministries. To join our amazing team and just like... I don't know. He's encouraging me to be bold and just do works all for His name. I'm nervous tough, like I don't know how to go about that. I'm not bold when it comes to people. I'm bold and confident in my friend groups most of the time... But not in people. Like... It's a big step. But really any step God asks me to do seems big. But I know that God is leading me to bigger things and I can't help but want to follow Him and His guidance. I don't want to not follow Him. I'm just nervous. I guess I'll always be nervous though. I just need to step up... Yeah. I need to do that.

        I need to follow God no matter what I want to do. He is my life and the one I follow. So I need to suck in up and do it! God will guide me <3

Love,

Miss Elizabeth!
