Well.. This is my first blog post. I'm pretty excited about starting a blog for a few reasons. One reason, starting a blog will allow me to share what is going on in my life with other people. I love sharing things with other people, as well as learning about what is going on in other peoples lives. Second, I'm always learning things that I could post about that could benefit you, hopefully anyways. God is always teaching me things that are so awesome! That's basically my number one reason for creating a blog, to share those awesome things with you.
To begin, I guess I should tell you where I am in life right now. I'm in my sophomore year of high school at the moment. Being a sophomore is cool, but at the same time not so cool. Its cool to be driving now, and somewhat independent..Ha ha. But throw in the text books, homework, tests, and projects.. That's when being a Sophomore starts to stink. But, on the bright side I try to remind myself that collage is only two years away. Don't get me wrong though, I'm in no rush to get out of high school, even as much as I think I am, I'm really not. School takes up the majority of my day, but after school I recently started a job at Ja'nel's Flowers and Gifts LLC. I never imagined working at a flower shop, but can I tell you I LOVE IT! I haven't mastered making beautiful flower arrangements quite yet, but I have time for that. On the other hand, I have mastered making Candy Bouquets! :) That's all that counts right? Ha ha. I work with a wonderful group of ladies, who are always teaching me something! Couldn't ask for a better job. Outside of school and work, I'm not too busy, but I'm busy enough. I spend a lot of my time in one of my favorite places.. First Baptist Church. This is what I call my "Hiding Place". That's weird to some people, but to me it's not. My youth group is my family. They mean so much to me, and affect my life so much. I cant even begin to tell you how much they mean to me. My youth minister, Dan Ratcliff, is an awesome man of God. Without his leadership and guidance, I definitely wouldn't be where I am right now. He loves our youth group so much, and does all he can for us! That's a gift from God, right there. Speaking of gifts from God, I'm beyond blessed. God has been teaching me so much, and it's incredible. I'm real excited about being able to use this blog to share some of those things with you, and hope and pray that God will use them to teach you and use you for his glory.
Well, that's about as brief of an update on my life as I can give you.. I don't think it was too long. Ha ha. Like I said before, I am excited about being able to share things with you from now on. It is gonna be a fun journey I think. I pray that God will use this blog to do his will and help others in different ways. I am looking forward to posting more! Thanks for reading!
