watch yo mouth!

hmmmm...where to start this blogging business...

there's a TON of stuff going on in my life, but i think the most note-worthy would have to be the past few times i've asked God for something...

time #1 don't tell anyone this, but it was our last game of the volleyball season. had just finished the regular playing season, and districts was about to start. our first game was against Roosevelt at an all girls school named Incarnate Word... i would have not enjoyed going there very much...they wore these hideous jumpers...reminded me of the brady bunch for some reason...

anyway, i was sitting on the bench, and thought to myself "Lord, is it wrong for me to wish the season to be over?" didn't get much of a response, but then i said, "i don't want the girls to lose, but i do wish this was the end of the season." Lo and behold...they lost and the season was over. oops, my bad

time #2 one of the girls in my small group decided she didn't want to come to k-life or small group anymore because she felt that i "always have attitudes" (exact words). i wasn't sure what she was talking about, and she didn't even want to talk to me about it... my heart was hurting because if i wronged her i wanted to apologize, but she wouldn't talk to me...teenagers... so i prayed that she'd reconsider k-life, small group, or that she'd find somewhere else to get some teaching about the Bible...well, she was back at k-life this past week and talking to me now...

time #3 today was a LONG day. i pretty much work for Sumner High school now...only i don't get 2 checks...i work with the attendance officer there to try to "rescue kids" as Jason likes to put it... well i didn't rescue any today, but i did wind up asking the Lord for a break from small group...oops...my bad. i go to the gym to pick up the girls, and no one's there. i go over to the school to pick em up before they get on the bus. i only see 2 of them and they said they couldn't come. 2 of the other girls were nowhere to be found, so i just came home and met with a leader...we talked a little about where we should take small group, and how we can make it more interesting...

so all that to say i need to start asking God for more!

p.s there's no such thing as coincidences
