this has been……. by far the most craziest couple of weeks i’ve ever experience
to start my phone get turned off…..i get into alot of debt by it…..i cant talk to my parents and everytime my parents try and help me out they get hit wit a set back so the cant……
my MY MYy my youth pastor was let go off is job because doesnt have money……..
i dont understand and…….and you name it my truck starts to fall apart in every way possible …..
but i must say today was a great start and finish ……………..
to start i went to cash my check to get some money then to go to wrk and get more money that i won from a contest…… i walk and i ask a friend if anyona has bought the jeans i want they say no i say great then i hid all of the ones i want to buy so i can when i get money……after that i find out that i get a free pair of jeans from lucky …..and there not just your cheap one either really nice pair of light wash luckys is what i go with …..i’m then asked if i would like to wrk a few more hrs so my friend can go home she had a long day ……it truely was …..so after that i go get a cookie and some soda to hold me over until 3 when i’m off ………
i get off at 3 go to the church to ask morris if he needs some help with a power point he said no i ens up helping him find a great picture so he can do his PP(powerpoint) then i do what i do best…..go talk to everyone i can see ……after that i go get something to eat come back for pre service prayer ….service starts ……..everyone says there last goodbyes to BEN and HOLLY ……..i am part of the few who say til the end when ben locks the door for the last time a MY YOUTH PASTOR ….you can see this look on his face that says ok well i’m met the end of this journey and at times i wish i could have done more ….but really he did just great …i watch him come to his van i look at him it was still my youth pastor i love him and his WIFE so much truely ……..we goodbyes so they can get there kids home…….
i get into my truck with kim so i can drive her around to her car we start talking about life……still talk as i go get gas and sing songs i use to scream in my truck as a first yr……then we get back talk about life alittle more and cani just say that she is doing so good with her watch with GOD is real to her and she wants so much from this life you can see it in her eyes ……..after we say our goodbyes and start heading home………….
this is where i find my greatest moment with GOD……….
yes yes yes you guessed it …….i’m right before the exit off of countyline and my tire gives right out on me…..i at a every slow pace drive my truck off the exit park it right in front of off broadway shoe store ……find my yellow bag throw my wallet in it get one the the sweat on the other side of me put it on and say “well i guess i’m walking”……and that i do ……i walk be my self all the way to lincoln…where pretty much anyone reads this part will find me crazy ……….yeah it happens the car that stops for you and in that moment ever yscary movie sceen comes right now……you hope its a woman but really its a man ……he see that i’m so tired and that maybe i dont quit look like the walking type ……ask if i need help and offers to give me a ride ………….your wanting to let you what i did and i dont know if its what you think…………
i get in because i feel completely at peace i know at this point the GOD is with me and has been talking to me for the past 30 minutes ……..he give me ride home while asking questions about me where i’m going to school and what i want to do with my life and most of all why in the HELL AM I WALKING TO LATE….i tell my doesnt work and my truck tire just blew …… he drops me off and i say thank you …….go up the stairs and start typing this ……
at the end of this night i left with one thing trust GOD because doing anything else is to dangerious i could have gotten so pist off when i heard my tire and start cussing and yelling like the last time but i wasn’t bitter at all …i know suprise suprise……i was with joy cause nothing that happen will change who my GOD is to me and most of all even when life is at what you see with yourselfish eyes at is worse you still have so much more to be thank for of ….and thank you thomas ……..you gave me a simple blessing and i wll pray that you are blessed from it on time……..
well …..heres another moment of my life……..i love you GOD thank you so much….

CARRIE! Mark and I had to pay $900 today for a car repair. I was really mad about it and also really mad about saying goodbye to Ben & Holly…then, I read this scripture:
James 1:
2 when troubles come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. 3 For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. 4 So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.
YEA!!! God is making us perfect and increasing our faith. Bring it on! We have the faith to endure this! Let your faith GROW!

Hey you’ve blogged a lot! Yay!
Keep it up.
I’ll be honest. I read the whole post, but the grammar makes it tough to hear your testimony though.
