Thanksgiving

Hey everyone! I hope that you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I did, I love thanksgiving. This was the first year that one of the siblings was missing because my sister is in California, and that was sad, but we had a good time anyway. I made my first apple pie, and we had a bunch of people over. I dont have time rite now to tell you the rest, but it was awsome....I am so Thankful!
Happy Holidays!!!!

Yesterday

Hey, so, let me tell you about my day yesterday...It was really good. The lady that I am staying with here has some property outside of town (that is where we live) anyway, yesterday we spent most of the day raking leaves, and burning them, which I have never done before. It was so fun to sit there with a hot cup of coffee on a beautiful fall day and watch the big fire, and all of the leaves. I eventually even took my homework outside and sat there for hours reading.
After a while, Sherlie's (the lady I am staying with) daughter in law and 2 of her grand children came over for a visit, and that was fun because it was the first time that I have met any of them. While they were here I went inside and made some lemon bars for a little get together that she was having, and really enjoyed myself. I love to bake in the fall, it is one of my favorite things to do.
That night I went to class and we spent the entire 3 hours talking about the geogrophy of Isrial, did you know that you could fit the entire country inside of the magic valley? That is crazy, it is tiny, however, though the distance between the coast and Jerusalem is only 30 miles, the elevation of the sea is sea level...and Jerusalem is 4,000 feet above sea level. The entire nation is like that, almost all mountains, and then the sea of Galilee is like 1,000 feet below sea level. Anyway, that was my day yesterday, I so wanted to get pictures of the fire, and such but my sister took my camera to California with her, so just use your imagination. See ya!

today

wow, ok, so I finally remembered my password, so I can finally write something. Sometimes I feel really dorky writing these, because I dont know anyone who reads them (other than like 2 family members)
School is good, I am enjoying myself, even though I have like 2 research papers to do, one is on Jean Jaque Rousseau, and the other one is on the religious state of the country in 1870. Those will be pretty fun I think, just a lot of work. Other than that I just have the normal week of homework.
We (my family and I) all went to Boise this weekend, and that was a lot of fun, I always love going to Boise when I get the chance, I love everyone over there. We went for a confrence about becomming true Sons of God, and being called up into our stature. That was really good, we also got to visit extended family and I loved that.
Lets see....Oh, my sister is gone for three weeks to California to take care of my great grandmother after she had serjury on her foot, I am praying for her, and I hope that she has a good time, but she is going to miss Thanksgiving, and my birthday which is really sad!
Well, that is a brief explanation of what is going on in my life, but I have homework, so all of you have a good day! By the way, read Romans 15:13-14 :)

Thoughts

I am unsure of how to begin. So much is going on, and we are caught up into the hurricane of it all. I am strangly and peacefully optimistic today, for I know that God controlls the world in its intiraty. We have prayed, we have hoped, we have seen, and we have heard. The World is not in our control, but in His. But, though He has the harness, we are His children, and He will listen to our prayers.
There is much evil in the world today, and nothing is as it should be, we all have things to do. It is my prayer that the people of God would rise up, that the Church would begin to have a voice in our Nation, and in the World. I pray that as the Church delves deeper into Christ, that she would reise her beautiful head and speak to the Earth with the influince and athority that God has given her. We have athority, in the relms of the Earth and the Heavins. My prayer begins locally, that the Christians in this town would begin to move, and speak to the town. That the Christians in this state would stand up and change the state. We must begin to understand that one man, with God behind him, is always more than enough, that things are not always as they seem, and that things change even when we cant see it, that God does have something up his sleeve, and that it is His arm.
Today is a good day, a day where we as free Christians can pray, and read our Bible, and have faith in God, and know that He is here, with us, always.

Grandview

Hi all! Well, it has been quite a day, I went to Grandview today with a bunch of people from school, (if you dont know where Grandview is, that is because it only has a pop of 470) it is really pretty! Georgeous actually, I wish that I had pictures to show you, but I left my camera at home.
We went to church, which was fun, I miss home church though. Oh, phone! ttfn tata for now!
