so....i've decided to try out this whole blog thing. not sure how it's gonna go. oh well!!
ca va tres bien aujourd'hui!! mais je suis tres fatiguee.......wait. am i speaking french?!?!? anywho, today has been reasonably great. this whole week was kind of.....oh, how should i put it......ah, in the words of dear heathbarhoops5, a "blah" kind of week. but today i have taken time to really think and evaluate things through, and my time in the Word today was very worthwhile. God is really teaching me that things don't always have to be quite as difficult as we make them out to be. as stressful as i allow my life to be, i need to just trust Him and give Him the control, ya know??? i worry too much about the future instead of taking every present opportunity and using it for His glory. so that's what i'm working on right now. one thing i have to praise God for--which some of you will find out i am constantly praising Him for--is the beauty of His creation. when i see the nature that i have been blessed enough to see every day, and the unfathomably gorgeous night sky, all i can do is either sing His praise or cry--or sometimes both. wow, for my first blog i'm kinda just pouring my heart out. so, i will leave you all with this quote (which i stole from a friend's AIM buddy profile) :

"Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling around with drink and sex and ambition, when infinite joy is offered to us, like and ignorant child who wants to go on making mudpies in the slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased." --C.S. Lewis

i hope that makes you think a bit. i'm out till another day!! i love you all!! --love kaylah
