Couple new quotes for this new day.....

I may be down but I will rise. It may be dark but God is light. (Charlie Hall)

We must never be preoccupied with the future, God is there. (unknown)

Jesus, I believe in you. Jesus, I belong to you. Your the reason that I live, the reason that I sing, with all I am. (Hillsong)

In this world you WILL have trouble. But take heart I have overcome the world. (My Savior, Jesus Christ)

My purpose, my life, my future, my hope, my song, all of who I am and ever will be, is to love God and know God. And because of the TRUTH and POWER of the Cross....my purpose it to love people and share my life and the HOPE of Jesus with everyone I can.

Amen and Amen.

Life is like a box of chocolates....you never know what you are gonna get.

I don't know if we each have a destiny, or if we're all just floating around accidental-like on a breeze, but I, I think maybe it's both. Maybe both is happening at the same time.

Forrest Gump. He always knew how to say it just right. I LOVE this movie. Probably my all time favorite. I saw it at the movies about 7 times or so. I own it of course. :) I nearly fell over in excitement when I was in San Francisco a few years back and looked up and saw "Bubba Gump Shrimp Company" restaurant. I HAD to eat there and got a bunch of awesome souvenirs....one including a hat just like Forrest wore in the movie. I still have it to this day....very cool. But when I think about these two qoutes....they really sum up my life right now. I am in a place of being unsure about what I am going to be getting outta my life....and I am not sure if I am fulfilling my destiny or floating along on a breeze. Some things in my life I am sure of....and some things I am very unsure of. I think about being 29 and wondering where the time has went. I also think about where I thought I would be and what I thought I would have....and the majoity doesnt much look like what I thought my life would look like. Some things I had no idea....but other things I just assumed would happen. You know what they say about people who asssume? :) I dont know.....I just think I need to make some plans and really pray for some guidance about vision for my future. My new future. My current future. The future that is coming soon. What am I supposed to do until God takes me home to be with him? I am really curious as to what God is doing with me these days. Curious is the right word. Unsure is even more right. Oh well, I guess I just need to keep enjoying the box of chocolates that is my life right now. Though I really would like it to be full of chocolate covered caramels (my favorite).....and I could really use me a "Jenny" (of the male persuasion of course) and a good friend like Bubba. Maybe, I will just go home and wear my hat today.
