| I remember the days when people read my posts and I read theirs on a DAILY basis. I think those are long gone haha. Never the less, here I am, writing away.
I've only been a college grad for a grand total of 11 days, yet, I
already feel the urge to write an update on life... so here it goes.
For those of you going through the same thing, enjoy. And for those who
haven't graduated yet, don't judge ;)
I started packing my room today and it's ridiculous how the littlest
things bring back so many memories. I have collected shot glasses for
years (I'm up to 48 now! Woot!) They are from EVERYWHERE, from all
parts of the world, so I keep a little note in each one that says who
gave it to me or what trip I was on when I bought it, and what year.
Soooo many memories stuffed in those little glasses. Little tears and
giggles came and went as I recalled each one. Man how time flies. I
feel like I just graduated high school. College? No way!
If that wasn't enough today, my dearest childhood friend sent me a
WHOLE BOX of graduation presents :) In it were helpful things for my
future and wonderful memories from my past... And a "Boogie Button"
which I found very entertaining :D
Its hard moving. Especially when I'm the only one going! I keep
remembering what all I'm leaving behind. Trying to pack my life isn't
easy. What do I take? Leave? Get rid of? It's more than just stuff...
how do I bring a little bit of home with me?
---------------
Challenge: Take time to remember those you love and memories you've
made. What makes your home special? What little things in your life can
take you back a million years? =)
---------------
The Lord has brought me so far in the last 21 years...and now this! 15
days from now I'll be pulling out for Colorado. Rocky Mountains, here I
come!
Blessings till then. And as always, later days 
Sara

| It's happened!! Graduation has come and gone. Oh my goodness... I'm so happy  . And... if that wasn't crazy enough, I'm moving to Colorado Springs in 3 weeks!! I got a job there the middle of March to work for a private, Christian Marketing & Public Relation firm called DOTW (.W). I am thrilled! This is a dream come true job for me right now, and the Lord provided it out of no where. I couldn't have put this together if I tried! To top it off, I have a roommate and a house! Really cool how the Lord worked all that out. I met a girl that graduated from my school in '02 though my sunday school class! Our class' leader passed off her email to me so I could have a friend out there. When I got in touch with the girl she said she was just about to put out an ad for a roomie to help pay for the townhouse she just bought! I couldn't beleive it. So Im moving into a really nice house for cheap cheap and I have a great roommate to top it off. Its so exciting! God has confirmed again and again that this is where I'm supposed to be right now. Amazing. So...that said, here's my post (I stole it from an older one I had written on Facebook ) that speaks my heart right now. Happy Weekend!!! I praise Your name among the nations,
I praise You name with all my heart!
I join my voice with all creation,
Giving You praise for who You are!
And the rocks will not cry out before me!
I will ever sing Your praise.
BLESSINGS You have poured out on me,
And everything... Lord You gave everything AND MORE!
I praise Your name... and I cannot say it enough.
**************************************************************
We are sheep. Stupid fools called humans. And yet the Lord leads and guides even when we don't see it. Stop and think of the wonderful things He has blessed you with and praise Him for it. Don't let the rocks do your job... Praise Him for who he is and what He's done, is doing, and will CONTINUE to do in your life!
"We cannot say enough about You..."
Later days!

| It might sound crazy to you, but I've been convicted about not writing on xanga. This is a chance for me to reach people in areas of the country (and even the world) that I would normaly never have access to. I also miss sharing things I'm learning here. I think that writing my thoughts in a logical manner on this thing actually helps me to relfect on things I'm learning in my life. It forces me to reflect. Which is what I need. Graduation. Guys its coming in less than 5 months. Oh how these 4 years have FLOWN by. I encourage you to read my February, 2006 entry called "Devotaional thoughts from Disney's Mulan" =) It brings back great memories. Have a good night. Love and Peace... and later days Sara ><> | | |
| Well... he has a job offer ladies and gentalmen! My dad has a job offer. Praise the Lord!! SOOO much has happened in the last month. I tell you, I'm not even able to respond to good or bad news anymore. I'm just numb. But I can praise... oh boy have I learned how to praise. So there is a job in Anderson that is for adult training and education (which happens to be what my dad is getting his doctorit in) and they want my dad to start on Sept. 17th!!! YAY! AND... my mom is looking for a job as well! AND... my brother decided to go to pubilic school this year as a Junior and is now an official Marion Giant! So my parents can both work without having the worry of leaving Aaron home to educate! The Lord has done what he promised... he has supplied all of our needs. Now I don't think this is ultimately where the Lord will keep us. We still want to move to NC at some point. But God said he was going to do something NEW and indeed He is!! Never have both of my parents worked at the same time, never has my dad had to commute for a job, never has Aaron been in a REAL school. This is ALL NEW. My prediction is that the Lord will keep us here till my Dad, Aaron, and I all graduate. I just think that's how it's going to be. The Lord knows we are all getting free education here and I think He's not going to continue that for us by keeping us here till it's over. Amen. The Lord is so good!!! I'm so excited for our "working class family"!!  Thank you, THANK YOU for your prayers. Take it easy all! Later days, Sara ><> | | |
| Wow, it has been so long since I've written! I doubt I've been missed haha, but nevertheless, I hate not staying up-to-date on this thing. Life has been interesting this summer thus far. I have a day job as a marketing assistant at a credit union in town and I'm staying at home, so that's helping the cost of living for sure. I also got hired at Starbucks during evening/closing shifts and LOVE it!! I'm 21 now!!! As of 7/11... so much fun to be an adult! =) My car is great! My grandparents bought me a CD player for it so I was really pumped about that =) Its a great blessing to have a car! My family is doing well. We have been praying for a year now that God would open doors no man could open and close doors no man could shut and I know He has been doing that. We had a great interview at a church in Elkin North Carolina and just loved everyone there and they seemed to really like us as well =) However, after telling them to go ahead and vote on us, no one in our family seemed to have peace about the whole deal. I'm not sure what is going to happen now. I'll say it again, I'm not worried. The Lord just is full of surprises and I dont doubt for one minute that He'll leave us! He promised us abundance (Ps. 66) and he promised us hope (Jer. 19:10-14). I trust Him. What i felt most lead to pray during the Elkin decsion was that this would be the last stop before we get to where ever God wants us. I really beleive that to be true. We have run the course God asked us to run and we have accepted the responsibiliy and dependence on Him that comes with that. Now the end is near and He's going to unleash His promised blessings. I'm so excited for my family =) Its been time.. so much working! Can't wait till vacation! =) Much love, God bless... let me know if I can pray for something for you. You know I'm always here! MUAH! Later days, Sara | | |
