I call it 'theres a country song about that' because i firmly believe that we are all daily living country songs in real life. Lets face it, they are just songs about us. That is how people who hate country get sucked in! Which brings me to the punch line- theres a country Song about that! Tonights Pick is trace atkins' songs about me! Ill add a link later! G'night folks!

My Valentine

Usually by this time of night, if i am alone on valentines i am super depressed by this point. Instead this year, i got the greatest gift. This year i am babysitting a child who i didn't really want to watch. I mean he is sweet and all, but i just wanted to have other plans tonight. His parents happen to be the nicest people ever and really good friends to my aunt, so alas i am here. Normally i would be even more frustrated by that fact, but this year i got the best valentine's present, a slap in the face from God. It was exactly what i needed too. Through a series of life events occurring over the past 2-3 weeks, i have become obviously aware of how sickeningly undeserving i am of God's perfect and continually unfailing love. I have also become unforgettably and painfully aware that i need it more than anything...and i am willing to let Him love me. i need Him, i only need Him. Anyhow, all of that to say, that i am content to just be here, even though it is valentines bc i know that God has not and will not forget about me. He made me and knows exactly what i need to make it and to glorify Him and He is faithful to provide. AND He doesn't care how i am when i come to Him, He just wants me to come home! so here i come...

and just when i think that it couldn't be any better, he may have just surprised me again, but i guess only time will tell on that one... i'll keep you posted if anything comes of it.

Welcome Note!

Hey folks... let me be the first to invite you to Bring it on down to holly-ville! I decided to revive the online blog as i was missing my xanga, but want to be caught up with the times. More to come soon...
