Third times a charm!

This is my 3rd entry for the day. so let's see how long it takes for me to get frustrated and quit.

Things like this seem to happen rather often to me. Almost everytime I try to make a facebook video it messes up. example, just today..Jessica Sethman's bday is today and I thought how lovely would it be if I sent her a video? so I made one. I sang to her. ate some corn on the cob. shared a few laughs. the list goes on and on.. and then I click on the send button and what do you know? one of my most hated words in the whole world pops up... ERROR!!

So what did I do after that happened? The only thing I can do... I laughed. I laughed because I have already written 2 blog posts today. The second one might have been "best blog post" worthy but who's to judge that. Of course right after tthings like this happen I become annoyed and a sudden rush of anger runs through my veins. But then I stop and think for a second and I laugh.

I am a very strong believer in the saying "everything happens for a reason". But to clarify, I think some people think this and really have no backbone behind as to why they believe this. I, on the other hand(man are we just having an anatomy lesson? backbone, hand..), believe everything happens for a reason because God wants them to. Like take for example earlier today when I was trying to write a new post, I was writing about how we should not have "ordinary" days and we should desire something more and meaningful because God created each day for us and we should not take them for granted. Well after what seemed to be thousand and thousands of words, I was feeling pretty guilty and I believe God used me to teach my ownself how to live a life more pleasing to Him. Another incident occured in 2008 right after I went on a mission trip to the Dominican Republic. After taking I think around 6 or 7 hundred pictures of this BEAUTIFUL place I had just been to, I lost my sim card. All of my pictures were gone!! yes, I will confess, I cried. but deep down I knew there was a reason for me losing my card. It definitely made me realize how much I tend to care about earthly possessions and how really nothing "earthly" of this world matters.

Where am I going with this? I believe everything happens for a reason because God wanted it to be that way. Whether it's good or bad God is in control and He can and will be with you through it.


I must now eat the rest of my lunch/dinner. linner?? i think so..

-do you even have to guess who wrote this?

    And, I think you should definitely try to get everyone to catch on to "linner"... it could change lives and fill stomachs!
