Running Free In Heartland

Life.....

So, things have been pretty good for me lately. I have been having a great summer so far, hanging out with friends, going on outings with my youth group, and enjoying time with relatives. It has been so fun!! Then, next week, I'm leaving on a missions trip to Vancouver, BC, with my youth group. I'm really excited!It will be really incredible! It will be really fun, too, cause our group is small, so we will hopefully all get really close.

Right now, the other team is in Vancouver, and a bunch of my friends are with them. So...if you all would pray for them, that would be maginificent! Thanks!

Everything else in life, has been going fine. I'm am begining to realize how complicated and frustrating life can be sometimes, though. The whole issue with on of our friends, is going ok, but a few more people have become frustrated with her as well.  For the longest time, one of my close friends, who has been going through this struggle with me and who has also been feeling the same way, and I were begining to think it was getting near time to confront her. We weren't certain ,though, but we knew that we needed to wait a little while to see what would happen. We had been advised not to talk to her, and I wanted to listen to that person, but I wasn't sure if that was what we were supposed to do, or if it was even the best advice. Last night, I talked to my mom about it, cause I haven't talk to her about it for a while, and she gave me the same advice, as well as some others. It is clearer to me now, that God doesn't want me to talk to that person, but that he wants me to wait for him to put things to right. He also told me the reason why he has put my friend(the one who has walked this journey with me) and I through this: 1) to help us practice being patient  2) to leave God to be in control 3) to learn to "not make mountains out of mole hills", cause both of us really struggle with that. It's really cool when God tells you why he is putting you through the trial you are in. In a way, it is also kind of relieving. It's so cool!God is SO SO SOOOOOO incredible! I love you, Lord!

Well, I should go

I will talk to you all later

God bless!

Love,
