like the store; Staples. because I have a love for all things paper and pen...so office stores are kind of one of my favorite places...except when I don't have money to spend, don't let me go inside! I'll find someway to make you lend me money. oh yes.
in this instance, specifically the soundtrack. seriously, I listen to that allll the time. I have Alice's Theme stuck in my head more often than not and can usually be found whistling or humming it. this usually happens after an episode of Downton Abbey as the theme for the show carries some similarity to Alice's Theme
something I've been having issues with lately is God's calling for my life. which for those of you that don't know, is youth ministry. and I'm having issues with that fact that that means leading people and speaking to people...sermons. and I honestly have trouble seeing why that should be me. I don't feel qualified to do that, I'm no better than anyone else...in fact I don't see myself as good enough to give anyone any advice at all...but God doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called.
last year on my Fine Arts Trip my mom and I went to see Soul Surfer in the theater. last night we had it on DVD and watched it again. it is so awesome.
I read Bethany's book years ago when it was released, before I was a Christian. I read it a total of three times before coming to Christ. The first time I completely skipped over all the God stuff but each time I checked the book out from the library I read a little more of "the God stuff". I have to say this girl has played a part in my coming to Christ and my walk with Him. if you haven't read her book (Soul Surfer by Bethany Hamilton) or seen the movie (also titled Soul Surfer) I highly suggest you do!
Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD,
whose confidence is in Him.
He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.
-Jeremiah 17:7-8
