I watched season 5 of NCIS, my favorite television show. It ended...so sadly! Leon, the new director, is messing up Gibbs team! While I'm glad Jenny is outta the way (I did not like her, she was very irritating) I do not like Leon. And now I cannot find out what happens until season 6 hits DVD and my library buys it. We don't have a TV with cable or anything.

I am reading Rachel Smiles by Darrell Scott. Rachel Scott was killed April 20th, 1999 in Littleton, Colorado, the Columbine school shooting. I have read the other books about Rachel as well, and...while they are really good, they are so sad! it just really gets to me why those two guys would kill people, look at them and pull the trigger. But whatever. Rachel had a strong faith, and I admire that. She was caring and compassionate. She lived her faith. Living your faith is so much more important than saying you are saved.

I just finished First the Dead by Tim Downs like last week. Amazing book! I love the Bug Man books. They are soo good; I think book 3, the one I finished most recently, is the best one yet, although the others are good too.

Today is rainy. All overcast with a little wind. I do not like rain. lol. Well, okay, I don't like storms. Rain isn't the problem.

We all went to Wal Mart the other night. That was fun! I love going to Wal Mart with everybody. I got a few things for me. On Saturday Dad had dropped Nicole, Bert and me off there and I got the last few things for Amy's birthday. I love going to Wal Mart.

"What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?" Pslam 8:4. I love that verse (forgive me if I don't have it correct, but that is basically it.)! But I also love that entire Psalm. Chapter 8 is one of my favorite Psalms probably.

One of my deepest desires is that people see Jesus in me. I want my life to glorify and honor Jesus Christ. It was never promised to be easy, I know that, but nothing, to me, is more important than living my life to please Christ.

I mentioned reading Do Hard Things I believe. Well, earlier I was listening to 'Fireproof' by Pillar, their song 'Just to get by' and I realized that it sorta fits with the message Alex & Brett were trying to get across. Maybe...I think. Maybe it's just me who sees it. lol. Anyways, the two guys were talking about the low expectations, and how so many people just do it, just enough to get by. Like the song says. But yeah, interesting...

I was flipping thru one of my journals from this past spring, and I found a song and a couple poems, as well as a short thing on depression I had written. I don't even remember writing them! well, the song and couple poems I sorta do, but not the thing on depression. Sometimes reading my journals is fun, other times embarrassing...and always interesting! lol.

Okay, well, I don't really know what else to say, so I am gunna sign off.

Jesus the way, the truth and the life. Jesus saves!!
