Did you know that the word LOVE is mentioned in the Bible 314 times, FRIEND 56 times. Last Wed, I had to speak at the See You At The Pole. Completely scared the living daylights outta me. I am not one to speak in front of people. My topic was school, so I went with the friends thing, after all they are the ones who put the most pressure on us. Judging who we talk to, how we talk, dress etc.. They are also the ones to put pressure on us to do things we don't want to do. So as my circle got larger, I became more nervous and to be honest I don't know that I got my point across. I made it through the morning, so that in itself is a great accomplishment.
I try to express to the youth group about how important love is, if we all love each other which might sound corny, but all other things will work out. Not to say that we have to let people run us over and do things we don't feel comfortable doing.
Pray for our youth, they really have a tough time, just being themselves. Pray for our church and that God will provide us with a music leader and give the youth a Youth pastor, not just a leader.

Blogging
I haven't blogged in forever it seems, usually forget about it. I don't want to have a blog where I am constantly gripping about the daily goings on in my life.
I do have to admit that facebook seems to have taken the place of this site.
I am currently praying for a new job, one that will still be with the city, I won't lose any of my years of service etc.. Just depends on if the current court clerk can retire early. It would mean working daytime hours only, holidays and weekends off. I could actually have a life again. May be able to lose some weight, work out and maybe even work out with my kids.
So anyway that said if you read this post say a quick prayer that I can move into the position.
Thank you and may you have a blessed day!
