Moved

The worship music at today's church service was so moving. It was one of those times that I can feel the Spirit moving in me. I have felt so stressed by school lately, but that all felt lifted off of me during service this morning. I am so thankful for God and know that no matter what my life is in his hands. Talk about peace.

"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." -Isaiah 41:10

"A heart at peace gives life to the body..." -Proverbs 14:30

These are some of the songs we sang at church:

I AM FREE by the Newsboys
"Through you the darkness flees, through you my heart screams I am free"

BLESS YOUR NAME by lots of artists
"Here in this moment, here in our lives, now and forever, be glorified"

 

WINNING!

After an exhausting day of six hours of lecture followed by reading about the GI system, my friends convinced me it was time for a study break. We decided to go out to Stanley's because they have a really great deal on pizza and I just happened to be STARVING! Upon arriving our waitress said she was passing out raffle tickets for two Chicago Bulls tickets for the Valentine's Day game....can you guess what happened next??

WE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't wait to enjoy Valentine's Day at the Chicago Bulls game with my awesome boyfriend :):):):):):)

Thank You ♥

I would like to dedicate this post to my boyfriend. It is only a week and a half into the semester and already he has amazed me. He is so patient with me, knows how to handle my tears, and makes me laugh away my stress. I love you and thank you.

Perfect for Me by Ron Pope

You sit in the bathroom and you paint your toes
I sit on the bed right now and I sing you a song
It's not always easy, but somehow our love stays strong
If I can make you happy, then this is where I belong

(Chorus)
And I'd just like to say
I thank god that you're here with me
And I know you too well to say that you're perfect
But you'll see, oh my sweet love, you're perfect for me

I know all your secrets, and you know all of mine
You're always here to hold me up when I'm losing my mind
I wish that I was stronger so that I had more to give
I'll share everything I have and we'll find a way to live

Chorus

Even after all this time, nothing else I ever find
In this whole wide world can shake me like you do
Its true that something so sublime that there aren't words yet to describe
The beauty of this life I've made with you

And I'd just liek to say
I thank god that you're here with me
And I know you too well to say you're perfect
But you'll see oh my sweet love you're perfect for me
And I know you too well to say you're perfect
But you'll see of my sweet love you're perfect
Oh my love I swear you're perfect
Yes I promise, you're perfect for me

Inspiration

I was inspired to create a blog after seeing some of my friends' blogs. I made my boyfriend change my facebook password so that I could not access it as much. HOWEVER, I still need a way to get out all my thoughts and keep up to date with my friends' lives.

The title of my blog comes out of inspiration from the song posted below called Carry Me by Kutless. This is going to be a really rough semester and I know that I will need God to carry me everyday.
