"Fear Not" Ronnie Freeman

Just like Mary, young and lovely
Finding herself so afraid
Face to face with Heaven’s angel
Life would never be the same

All who trust in God to lead them
All who take Him at His word
When at times it’s all so frightening
Hear the call that Mary heard

Fear not
For the Lord is with you
Fear not
You’re held in His hand
You are safe beneath His shadow
You are part of His great plan
O blessed child of God
Fear not

Just like Joseph, man of honor
Never thought they’d be a part, or
He’d be why the townfolk whispered, or
Heaven’s plan would break his heart

All who trust in God to lead them
All who take Him at His word
When at times it’s overwhelming
Hear the call that Joseph heard

Fear not
For the Lord is with you
Fear not
You’re held in His hand
You are safe beneath His shadow
You are part of His great plan
O blessed child of God
Fear not

His Vision

I should write more often. When I come to a point where I want to write, like now for example, I feel like I have so much to say that I don't know where to start or what to say. Most importantly today, I want you to know and remember that the Lord is ever present and working. Because His Spirit is in me, the Lord has given me the same power that He raised His son from the dead with. The same power that conquered the grave lives in us! Lately, I've been praying that the Lord would awaken me and keep my focus on HIM alone. For so long I think I was seeking the things of the Lord and looking for things with Him in them, which is good, but...I should be seeking Him and those things will follow. Rather than seeking things I think He may want me to do, seeking Him will cause me to see what he has in store for me instead of me searching for those things and losing sight that He will reveal His vision for me in His time.

Fun, well random, things these last few weeks....

-baking cupcakes at wes and bryce's with caroline

His Love Never Fails

i'm not doing very good at being consistent with posting. and when i do have time to write, there's so much to say that i don't know what to write. so this one is going to be sort of like a list...just to make sure i cover everything:)

-after much thought and much time spent searching

, i finally found my object for my my new 3d project. ice skates!! wooohoooo!

-baby are you down down down down down with Emily Brown!!!!! this is campaign week for miss homecoming 2010 (Emily Brown), which means it is SUPER busy, but a lot of fun!! YAY EMILY BROWN!! number one on our ballots and number one in our hearts:)

-The Lord is present even in the smallest ways. He is SO GOOD. I can't even describe Him, but if I could there would never be anything new about Him to reveal to me. Praise the Lord because He is a mystery and wants to give us more of Him each day!!!! Yesterday He just spent the day reminding me that He truly is present everywhere. Even on the bus coming back from RO parking (miles away). The driver was listening to a song by Nicole C. Mullen that my mom and I used to listen to a lot. I can't think of the name right now, but it just says "I know my redeemer lives." I just was sitting there in the bus talking to the driver and all of a sudden I heard that song playing. It just made me smile, I knew it was God reminding me that He was

there with me and that He always would be. What an awesome hope to have in Him.

well, that's all the time for now, but i'll have some more tomorrow if there's time..i hope!!

WAR CAM EMILY BROWN EAGLE!!!!!!!!!

BEST. WEEKEND. EVER.

why hasn't birmingham ever had a fair?? i went with a bunch of my KD sisters this weekend to the peanut festival in dothan and it was SO SO much fun!! first of all, mary grace has the sweetest family; they took such good care of all 14 of us this weekend. they were such a blessing and so sweet to welcome us into their home and cook literally every meal for us. we ate ALL weekend. when we woke up she had breakfast casseroles prepared and cinnamon rolls and everything else you could think of and then we watched football together all day and kept eating the snacks they made us for the game and the delicious grilled dinner. shooooot...all i've talked about is food. oh and we ate THE best corn dogs ever and caramel apples at the fair friday night. yum:).

this afternoon was wonderful too!!! i went went some girls to eat at toomer's corner. i recommend the chicken n' dumplings soup. mmm mmm. after we just went shopping in downtown auburn just for fun and went to earth fare to get some groceries where we sampled everything there was to sample. then we laid out on the lawn by owen and did some studying before we went back (yes, twice in one day) to earth fare for dinner. this will become a usual habit of course. we spent more time taste testing for dinner too:) it was a successful weekend. just great time with the girls. the Lord certainly blessed us all throughout the weekend. Praise Him.

woooooohoooooooooo!!!!!!!!! after a long night in the studio my hummingbird drawing is finally finished!!!! alltogether, i spent 38 hours on this drawing and last night i didn't sleep. i was in the studio until 7:30 this morning. my awesome, best drawing professor EVER, brought us festive halloween daylight doughnuts this morning to eat during critique, YUM!! i'm working on a name for my hummingbird, but here she is!!

medium: drained 1 and 1/2 bic ink pens

i need a break. i haven't posted in awhile because my life has been taken over by my "drain the pen" project for my drawing class. today i've been stuck at the studio for hooouuuurrrrrrsssss. i'm getting sick of all the music on my ipod. and who knows when i'll leave tonight, but get excited! i can't wait to post my drawing!! okay here we go again. my next post will mean my project is finally oooovvvvveeeerrrrr! yay!!!!

since i've been gone

i met 3 more auburn football players the other night!! SO FUN!! i love meeting them, so i can cheer for them during the game! and yes, we are now facebook friends. it's legit. and yesterday all my teachers went out of town so all 3 of my classes were canceled for friday! i just spent some good time with the Lord and i just started a book by Jeanne Guyon, Experiencing the Depths of Jesus Christ. it was wonderful to have a day off to just relax. i guess that's what weekends are really for, but it never seems that we can do that with all the tailgates getting ready for AUBURN football. i better go so i can cheer on my new friends:) during the game!!!
