About Me

My life is not my own, for I belong to Christ.

It is because of God's grace and for His glory that I "live and move and have my being."

I am currently back in Indiana, studying English Education at Purdue University, far from the home I've come to know and love in Victoria, Australia

My family means the world to me.

Living in America and loving in Australia, I am blessed indeed. Complete Profile

Time
Time is one of God's wonderful gifts, and He expects us to use it wisely. My siblings and I are learning this the hard way. My parents are having us fill out sheets telling everything we do in our day. It's set up in sections of five minutes. We have to write down every little, tiny thing we do. Eating, school, computer, phone, talking, walking around aimlessly, even when we go to the bathroom! We are just doing it for this week so my parents can see if we are using our time wisely. I didn't really do that today, so this is going to be a short post. So sorry!

Go to the Ant!
I was reminded at the ECHO party by a verse in Proverbs that tells us to look at the ant and see how she works. There is also a song by Judy Rogers based on that verse. Here is one of the verses that explains exactly how I am some of the time:

Are you the helpful kind?
Do you ever see if you can help your mother?
Or are you the lazy kind
And you wait around hoping she'll ask your brother?


Is that not how we all are sometimes? I do help my mother, yes, but I also am not proud to say that I am also often lazy and hope I don't have to do a certian job. Well, God tells us to go to the ant! She works hard all day without complaining! We should, in that way, imitate her.

Verse of the Day:

The one that says "Go to the Ant" sorry I don't have time to look it up!

Song of the Day:

"Are You Happy Now?"

~Michelle Branch~

Quote of the Day:

Tamara: Dad gets headaches a lot. I think he needs new glasses.

Benjamin: Tamara, what do glasses do to your head?

Allen: They sit opon them.

Ugh! My computer is doing the two-space-when-I- hit-the-enter-key thing again!! Also, sorry this is a pretty boring post! Any suggestions to make my blog more exciting??
