Wow! I have not posted about my life in like forever! Lets see. We had our Ed Fair, my project was on minerals. I got a high review from my judge, so that's good. My cousins came down for the week since we had spring break the same week. I had soooooo much fun with them. We went to the mall on Tuesday and tried on prom dresses, just for fun. I had a blast! We also went bowling and to Chuck E. Cheese. I haven't been there in the longest time. Soccer started on the 1st and that's going pretty well. We won our first two games, but since we are in pre-season it doesn't count yet. My team is great. The guys crack me up! They are always doing something funny. Our team is like one big happy family. We love to tease, laugh, and mess around (not during games). Well the work weekend at Patmos is slowly approaching. I CAN'T WAIT! It's going to be fun. I love working hard, getting down and dirty. Fun Fun Fun. Well, right now I'll leave you guys with a song that applies to my life at this time. Just read the words and let them fill your heart. See if they have the same effect on you as they did on me. Post later (Lord willing)
Praise You in this Storm
By: Casting Crowns
I was sure by now
That You would have reached down
And wiped our tears away
Stepped in and saved the day
But once again, I say "Amen"
And it's still raining
As the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
And as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise the God
Who gives and takes away
Chorus:
I'll praise You in this storm
And I will lift my hands
For You are who You are
No matter where I am
Every tear I've cried
You hold in Your hand
You never left my side
And though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm
I remember when
I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry You raised me up again
My strength is almost gone
How can I carry on
If I can't find You
As the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
And as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise the God
Who gives and takes away
Chorus
I lift my eyes unto the hills
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord
The Maker of Heaven and Earth
