Owners Manual

Well, here it is. I have never blogged before, but i thought i would try it. I mean, come on, we all know that i always have something to say. 
i realized something. Life is not handed to you in a pretty, red , shiny package with a owners manual. We are on our own. thats what i have always thought. I have to figure everything out for myself and get through high school and then college by myself. Well. lets just say i was wrong. 
    That is not the case AT ALL. I have been learning so much since camp about giving my life, and i mean WHOLE life, over to my savior and King. After all. He did give it to me in the first place, right? I need to learn to be more Dependant on Him. That is what he is there for. 
    Being Independent is great when you have to move out, buy an apartment and make your own dinner with out your mom. But i am just realizing that no. i can not do everything and puhlease i dont want to do everything. 
Today after just being totally humbled by God and realizing that i have to give it up to him and not worry about everything in life but instead i need to just let it go and give it all up to him, i heard the song Let It Roll by Superchic[k] ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCCR7mC0y6E ) and that again reassured me that God has everything under control and i just need to give it all to him. Ahh sometimes i just love when God works in the ways he does. He is so great. 
    Looking back at my life, yes there has been hard, frustrating circumstances but all in all i KNOW that God put me through every single one of those trials for a reason. The only thing i hope for is that this realization and love will stay with me everyday of Junior year. I need to remember why i am here. No its not to be a straight A student, to have a boy friend, to be a best friend, to be the best sister i can be, to be the funny, loud girl i am. But that it is about serving Him with all my heart. 
   So here is to JUNIOR year. Thank you God for actually giving me a Owners Manual and thank you for being my owner.
