painting, graduation, calc .... nothing real important ;)

So from the above title - nothing too exciting or important has been going on lately. I have been painting (along with my Mom, Dad, and brother Noah) since Sunday. We have everything done, except for a few things which I hope to finish up later this morning. :) I was given the job of doing ALL the trim. Everywhere there is trim, I need to repaint it! I struggled with this for awhile because I did not want this job, nor did I feel I was the right candidate for it. But I learned a few good lessons from having to paint all that trim. Do everything to the glory of God! It doesn't matter that I got the worst paint job - I need to do a good job because I'm doing it for God! And not complaining about it ... oooh boy that one is hard. Especially when my brother did the green wall paint and got it all over the trim and the ceiling - which, I might add, is white! But I'm not complaining - it's character building. It looks so much better too. ;)

With the weekend comes Sunday, June 7th, and with that comes my graduation party. I am slightly nervous for it because I hate being the center of attention - but I'm just praying that I will have fun, relax, and just give everything to God! After all, there is no way I could have finished high school without Him. So yes - we are getting everything ready to go! Food plans are done (partially ... I still have to make like 400 cookies on Friday - fun fun!), I have my outfit I'm wearing, we have all the plates napkins etc., Mom is almost done with the picture collage thing .... yes, it's all coming together! It will be fun though - to see lots of people. :D

I had a coaching call yesterday and we figured out that I can take Calculus II for an online class over the summer!!!!!!! :D :D :D I am SO excited about that!!! I do have to take the Calculus I CLEP first (obviously) but I think that one won't be too hard ... I think I have most of the concepts down. Oh, and I do have to take English Literature before that one! So I have a little ways to go, but I am so excited for Calculus II!! Brand me as insane and crazy .... I don't care hehe.

After all that - I leave you with my memory verses for the past couple weeks. They are so beautiful, just the whole picture of what Yahshua did for us and what we need to do to have a wonderful relationship with Him ... just walk in the light. :)

1 Yohanan (John) 1

1. What was from the beginning, what we have seen with our eyes, what we have looked upon and our hands have handled concerning the word of life:

2. And the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and announce to you this everlasting life which was with the Father is manifested to us.

3. We announce to you what we have seen and heard, so that you too might have fellowship with us. And truly our fellowship is with the father and with his son Yahshua Messiah.

4. And we write this to you in order that your joy might be complete.

5. And this is the message we have heard from him and announce to you, that Elohim is light and in him is no darkness at all.

6. If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and are not doing the truth.

7. But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Yahshua Messiah His son cleanses us from all sin.

8. If we say we have not sin, we are misleading ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

9. If we confess our sins, He is trustworthy and righteous to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

10. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar. and His Word in not in us.
