teenagers..

are the BOMB :) haha. so many people are so scared of teenagers like they are going to like beat you up or something. Teenagers are AMAZING. I really feel that God has put a passion in my heart for teenagers! Last night my eyes were opened to the fact that there are teenagers who want to step out and be and example to their peers and really step out for God and be the ONE who can make a different and be blessed by Him! For those of you that do not know I am helping serve on the student leadership at WEC ( waters edge church...if you didnt know :)) what a blessing it has been even in just a short time. I am a co-leader for the 6th grade girls. They are just to cute and way to funny! I wonder if I was like that when I was in 6th grade!?! We have our first student community group next wednesday! I mean I am nervous and excited all at the same time! I am just so excited and blessed that I am apart of something that is SO much bigger than I am. In my life all I want to do is help and serve, I feel so at peace helping others. It def is weird going into a group that people are already tight and have been for awhile, it will take some time getting use to. All I can say is that the leadership and the leaders have been nothing but loving and helpful, and have totally opened their arms to me. I really feel blessed to be apart of this. I pray that I am the example in thier lives to be the ONE to step out, even if they are new to this whole " God thing ". Being a leader means a lot of things, but it also helps you put things in perspective of what you need to do in your life. How can you lead if you know you aren't living for Him, but telling your students to live for Him?! I feel like ever since I have been attending WEC, that the purpose of life has more meaning, it is getting me back on the right path with my life. I am so blessed to have these people in my life...I know that this is a total God thing. They have come into my life at a time where I do need peope like them. I pray over the year that I will be with these girls. I pray that there lives will be changed. I pray that I can be the example that they need in their life. That friendships will be formed, trust will grow, and we are open to what God has instore for us!
"Teach me to do your will for you are my God; may your good Spirit lead me on level ground"

Also update on the fast....been doing really good with it! No fast food this week! I mean yes it has been only 3 days...but I am feeling at peace with my choice. It is more packing of lunch, packing sandwiches and stuff. I am just feeling so good about life. I mean things can be messed up but yet so put into place. Love it!!!
