This past week I reached my one-month anniversary in Southern California! It has been a crazy month with many ups and downs, but my how it has flown by! While I have adjusted to this new way of living, I still have tons of life ahead of me, and many wonders of what the future holds. But no need to worry about that now, time to focus on the now!
Lookin’ to Love ME!
I have been focusing a lot this past week on myself, and being content with who I am and what I represent. Eever since I was a young girl I have always wanted a family of my own, I have recently battled with what I have always wanted and what God wants for my life. Right now, of course I could not see myself married or with kids, but with the profession I have chosen, it makes it even harder to work towards that lifestyle. But right now… in this time of my life… it's me time. Time for me to find comfort and confidence in who I have become and where I am in life. I am taking a four-week seminar online and am very excited. It is about loving yourself, which then evolves into building relationship outside yourself and knowing when the right person comes along, that they might be a good match for you. It all starts from within, and I am thrilled to find peace from within to reflect in my outward appearance and actions.
Hold on Tight…
My first month at the Big West Conference has been nothing short of a roller coaster ride! One of those rides where it goes REALLY fast and you just hold tight hoping you don’t lose your mind in the 30 seconds the ride lasts. But I have survived and now having taken over women’s basketball for a couple weeks, I am situated just in time to throw something new into the mix… SOFTBALL! This Thursday most spring sports start, not including track and field, which will come in March. The first release has been sent out and next week will be my first experiences with two releases and POW’s as well as continuing to prepare for the conference tournament.
Today marks 30-days till the BIG TOURNAMENT at Honda Center, where we host men and women’s basketball conference play. It is the true test, as after the tournament the Deputy Commissioner wants to sit down and talk about my future goals and how I have adapted to the office! So my plan is to take these next 30-days to completely surround myself in work and do my best to show my potential, and hope that when it is all said and done, I enjoy it!
Confess… & Repent…
Week two at Bachelor #4, RockHarbor Orange was a success. I feel comfortable in the church and enjoy every aspect of the worship. This week we continued the series and traveled to the book of Ezekiel. There are so many struggles that different individuals, and even Christians have in their lives and never is it easy to walk through them alone. Accountability is key and that is something that each person needs when they are looking to get past an obsession or sin that should not be in their life. But before all that we must confess our sin to the Lord and give it to him. This can be hard but is not the last step. We can confess all we want, but without repentance we will continue to fall into the same sin. We must confess, know its wrong, but also repent, do something about it. GOD GIVES LIFE THROUGH REPENTANCE!
“Some of the things I REALLY wanted to happen in my life and I prayed and prayed to happen, just didn't happen. Sometimes the greatest acts of Grace are unanswered prayers. If you are so attached to a certain outcome that it gives you pain, anxiety and worry - that is a sign that your thoughts are not aligned with the will of God in your life.”
