Yep it's all about the Pot

No....not the that kind of pot...but yes Clay and pots. So the other day in my bible reading I came across another little jem in Jeremiah it goes something like this....

The Lord gave another message to Jeremiah. He said. "Go down to the shope where clay pots are made. I will speak to you while you are there." So I did as he told me and found the potter working at his wheel. But the jar je was making did not turn out as he had hoped, so the potter squashed the jar into a lump of clay and started again.
Then the Lord gave me this message: "O Isreal, can I not do to you as this potter has done to his clay? As the clay is in the potter's hand, so are you in my hand.

Well ya see the same is true for me....I guess I'm clay and God is gonna put me on his wheel and shape me. Which should be wonderful, not always easy cause this clay might not always work with God. But I know that he will shape me as he wants me to be and that's the cool thing about it. Just something neat to think about....

Two thumbs way up

so... earlier this evening, Tamarah and myself went to the movie Pride & Prejudice. mmm wow. It was spectacular if you ever want a really good chick flick that is very clean, choose this one. Amazing and very romantic. It was super. Well I think I could go on about this movie for a long time but it would just end up being run on sentences of words like fantastics, spectacular, etc. So i leave you with this ladies....Mr. Darcy....watch it and you'll fall in love.

A distracted mind

First off I'd just like to show this really wicked awesome picture of me bench stomping....yeah we made it up...but it's a really good hobby, you all should look in to it. The picture on my right would be of new years eve when Tamarah and I decided that we should try and kill the bench...for random reasons that are to not be explained....So we proceeded to stomp
on the bench. whew.. now that I've got that out of my system....

The title of the day is distracted mind...for the obvious reason that my mind is occupied with things such as....wait for it...Australia! I'm finding myself staying up to ridiculous hours of the night thinking of all the things I have to do or am going to forget. It gets pretty intense and I can't ever fall alseep. I'm not freaking out or anything, my mind just won't shut off. I send a quick prayer up and it seems to work for the moment and then I just keep on thinking....so here is the deal if anyone has any tips or things that I should know/remember for when I'm traveling or what I should bring leave me a note and then I can write all of your ideas down...hopefully that will help...
feel free to leave one even if it's a funny tip I always like those too.

We have a Cd cover pic now all we need is a band!

Yeah that's right pretty sure we look really good there...anyway that's really not what I want to blog about today....rather I would like to share a little bit about what I read the other day...it goes something like this.

The Lord gave me a message. He said, "I knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my spokes[woman] to the world."
"O sovereign Lord," I said, "I can't speak for you! I'm too young!"
"Don't say that," the Lord replied, "for you must go wherever I send you and say whatever I tell you. And don't be afraid of the people, for I will be with you and take care of you. I, the Lord, have spoken....You are to build others up and plant them....Get up and get dressed. Go out and tell them whatever I tell you to say. Do not be afraid of them. For see today I have made you immune to there attacks. You are strong like a fortified city that connot be captured, like an iron pillar or a bronze wall."
Jeremiah 1:4-8, 10b, 17 & 18

I read this last night and it was basically how I felt. God is telling me to go and speak on behalf of him...there for I have to go. And even if it seems like I'm to young, (which I'm only 19) it doesn't matter cause God says so. He will be with me and help me. So I found it kind of neat that I read this. However, I think we are all called to be spokesmen/woman of God, just called to a different place....I dunno...think about it and tell me what you think...

Australia here I Come!

Alright....so I had a little more time to edit this one and get some more stuff in it. Alright so most of you probably know, but this girl is leaving for the beautiful country of Australia on Feb 19th 2006. Yes! I'm very excited and can't wait to start my beach to bush DTS with YWAM. Basically taking a dts is like going to bible school except a little more focused on evangalism and missions work. So it will be so grand an I'll get to share Jesus with many people....pretty sure there isn't anything more exciting than that.
Well as it gets closer to the date...now only a month eexactly...I find myself completely thinking about things that i need to bring, do, or remember and it gets kind of crazy. But I know God will make everything run smoothly and even if it doesn't that's alright too. I know I've said it more than one before, but if any of you get the chance send a prayer up for me. Thanks it means alot. :)
