Time for a change

So my lovely sister Rita and I are going to start going to the gym tomorrow!! No more excuses!! We both just want to be healthy. A lot of my mom being sick could've been a little easier on her body had she not been overweight. Looking good is just a bonus of being healthy ;) Pray for us!! I personally love working out....but I REALLY love food! Yes we realize Thanksgiving is around the corner. Like I said PRAY for us!!

Makes Me LAUGH!!!! ;)

Okay so anyone who knows me, knows that I am a total romantic! I absolutely love love stories. Well obviously God doesn't have that for me at the moment, which I'm ok with....really I am. So as I wait for what God has for me there have been a few "interesting" incidents. Before I tell these lovely stories, let me tell ya a lil bit about my heart when it comes to the "one". My desire is for a man after God's heart, someone who truly just brings me that much closer to the Lord, who challenges me to be more like Christ. That being said let me tell ya about some other fellows ;) So I recently started working for WellsFargo as I mentioned in other post and I've come to meet a lot of different people. Obviously among these different people are guys. Now I like to think that I'm a friendly person. I love talking ;) (I see everyone laughing) and I love making friends. Okay okay I'm going to get to the point!! There has been two guys who lets just say have been very interesting! No I don't like them (their not Christian). But they have been very forward with me, not rude or disrespectful but just very how do I say it charming. :) And I just think it's the funniest thing ever!!!! Because they both know I love the Lord, they both how I feel about dating, marriage, etc. Yet they still want to pursue me???????!!! Truly it's God's holliness that they are attractive to but it really just cracks me up. I'm not trying to be silly just honest. It just wows me at how "easy" it is to just be in or of the world. If I let my eyes get off of Jesus, it would be easy to get lonely or tired of waiting and settle for what the world has to offer. But I kinda see Jesus laughing with me, because He knows what's in store for me and it's 100% better than what I'm being offered.

Turned heart????

What a week! There is a lady that I've known for about 3yrs now. I meet her when I first came back to AZ. Her and I have always gotten along pretty well. However she is not a Christian. She would invite me to her children's birthday parties and stuff, so we were okay friends. Here and there she would ask me questions about God, but she never really wanted to discuss "religion". About a week ago I meet with her to have dinner. During our dinner she started acting a little well, how can I say it, irritated with me. She just seemed annoyed about everything I said. Obviously me having a relationship with Christ, my conversations are going to be about that relationship. Usually this is fine with her but this night she definitely was not enjoying that. So she ends up telling me that she was reading this book fictional book that has the main character (who is a lesbian) pretty much denounce any kind of God, mentioning that God was something created by man. I have to say I was kind of taken back by this because even though I know she isn't a Christian, she never tried to denounce that God really did exist. So after hours of us "discussing" this matter, I pretty much went home with my heart broken. We have one life here on earth and what a waste to spend it not having that relationship with Christ. SO of course I've been praying for this friend and this week I got a phone call from her. It seems that her father ended up going to the hospital because he couldn't breathe. Come to find out he has a rare, non-curable disease. Pretty much the disease eats away at your muscle tissue and your nerves until you just end of dying. Obviously she is just devastated. First off please just keep her and her family in prayer as this is a really tough situation for them. Second please pray that God would just get a hold of their hearts through this. I'm not saying God did this to get her attention but I do believe God "allows" things to happen in our lives to remind us that He is here.

My "amazing" job!!

Well I'm three weeks into my new job, and I LOVE it!!! I had in my head an idea of what I wanted out of this job and God went above and beyond all my expectations! I'm doing pretty much what I love to do and the opportunities for growth at this company (Wellsfargo) are endless! I've meet some amazing people that remind me of how blessed I really am. Let's hope I'm singing the same tune months from now! ;)

Memories from Colorado Lane..

Friends who dance while driving.....good times!

The Big Move

My family and I are moving. This is not something that I'm necessarily excited for.......lets just say that the people involved are very how do I put it....moody? Anyways the move will be done within the next few weeks. I am excited for change. Seems like the Lord has opened up a lot of doors which are going to definetly change things. ANd I get to PAINT!!!! I LOVE painting!! From the taping off to the cleaning up, it's what I like to do.

I am loved.......

So I got home to clear dark skies (it was at night) on Sunday. Which before hand I called everyone I knew in Arizona to see what the weather was like. The reason for this was because I was flying and I knew that the smallest cloud could bring turbulence!! Don't let the fluffy look deceive you. Well late yesterday afternoon the weather seemed to be getting stormy and sure enough by 6pm we had a huge thunder storm! The reason I am telling everyone this is because Jesus loves me!!! I think I would have cried if I had to fly in that kind of weather. Thankfully this horrible storm happened the day after I got back! Yes I love looking at the clouds, yes I love that nice breeze, but I am not fooled!! Thank you Jesus for giving me clear skies!

Colorado Trip

Let me just start off by saying that I just knew my week in Colorado would be amazing. The fact that I was able to go and was willing to fly on more than one plane to get there was all God. I was so excited to see Megs. It had been around two years since we were able to hang out. The timing couldn't have been more perfect though. The whole week seems like a blur but here are some details of what went down. I got there Sunday afternoon and the minute I stepped off that plane we were busy!! It was the best kind of busy, the your with your friend, excited for a wedding, dancing while your driving, laughing so hard you can't breathe kind of busy. During all the chaos I was able to meet two wonderful ladies! You know who you are!!!!! :) I can honestly say that until then I had never met someone (in this case someonesssss) who I instantly wanted to be good friends with. Praise God for friends!(especially those who love to shop for shoes like I do) Megs wedding was BEAUTIFUL!! You know I have to say that when God is in something it is just above and beyond what you yourself would ever expect. I'm so excited for my friend and all that the Lord has in store for her and Jared. Well the day after the wedding I was actually able to go to the Black Canyon. It was breathtaking. All I kept thinking (in between looking to the right and seeing how far a fall would be) was "Wow God! You made this!" It's nice to be reminded of God's greatness. So now I'm back home in AZ. No I'm not excited :( But I'm very happy to be with my mom again and Lord willing I will see some of my new and old friends sooner than later.
