Friends - Thankful Thursday

I don't know if I ever told you guys this when I started public school last March. but I had a hard time making friends. I was so alone. I'm this really outgoing person. Once I get to know everyone. Sometimes I am just super outgoing when I feel like I can be. When I feel like I'm in an environment where someone else is the dominant outgoing person....i shy down. waaaay down. i pitied myself so much that I had lunch with my math teacher every day. it wasn't until junior year (this current school year) that I actually started making friends. and now I don't feel so alone. I actually have something to do during our long lunch!! (lunch for a whole hour twice a week)

anyways. if you ever find out that there is someone new in your environment, be nice. say hello. try to be their friend:) show some love! you know you'd want people to do the same thing to you.

anywho, the whole point of this post was to tell you that I'm branching out. public school has shaped me even more and I know that I would not be who I am if I had not gone to public school. it's been an amazing experience (most of the time;) and I'm learning so much through it. academically and socially.

XOXO! 

Positive Thinking

Do you feel alone? Do you feel like crying for no apparent reason?
Do you feel forgotten? Do you feel empty or lost?
Do you feel like no one cares? Why are you here on this earth?

It's okay because sometimes I feel like this too. That's when I have
to stop thinking and start listening.

Jeremiah 29:11 ESV 

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.

Proverbs 17:22 ESV

A joyful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones

Philippians 4:8 ESV

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

Jesus loves you. He loves me. And He died on the cross and was raised from the dead. Just for us.
He never promised that this road would be easy. But He promised that He would always be here.


And one way that He shows us His love is with the relationships He created us to have :)
I know I never did 2012 Best Moments, but here they are.
