Hmm..
..what to say Lord it's You who give me life...
Everyday! It's You I live for! Everyday! I'll follow after you!
Everyday! I'll walk with You my Lord!!
...
Those are some of my favorite lines from that song. (Everyday)
Wow. It's been a good two days. I was reading from Isaiah chp. 45-46 last night.
To sum it up, God was saying there is absolutely NO other God. He was the beginning and the end, the one who gives life and takes away. Who brings peace, but will cause calamity. Those are 2 awesome chapters. I stared classes a week and a half ago. My favorite class is Western Civ. I LOVE it! We just got done talking about Ancient Egypt and are now onto the Hebrews. It is so weird to hear the history of the Hebrews through a secular point of view. I noticed how my teacher completely skipped over Jesus' death on the cross. He only noted it to say that it was just "another rebellion in the eyes of the Romans" Still, this is my favorite class! I actually look forward to this class. God is so cool. I didn't know what to read last night in my quiet time, so God led me to Isaiah chp. 45-46. I'm glad I read it. 'Cause as I said, we just got done with the Egyptians. Our last topic was on the Egyptian gods. How Amon-Re is the "father god" and then there's Isis, goddess of fertility, and so on and so on. God just reminded me that those "gods" are nothing. He is the one and only God. My oh my! I am so excited!!! My best friend, Jenna, and I are finally going to have our "night on the town"! Even though she went to her senior prom, I didn't. I was the wierdo who decided to go to a horse show instead. :) Anyway, I got a beautiful prom dress for my birthday and havn't used it yet. Jenna and I decided to have our own "prom" (but it's called a galla.) We are inviting a group of people. If all come there will be 5 guys 5 girls. We're going to a fancy dinner and were going to have dancing and a "social" at my grandparents basement afterwards. I think some were worried at first with the dancing part, but it's going to be more like "ballroom" dancing than a wild whatever. I'm pretty sure that half the people going don't know how to dance so this will be interesting. (I'm included in the ignorance of dancing.) Wow! there is so much more I could write, but I must go...Be blessed ya'll!!

Isn't ancient Egyptian history fun? Wish I could take a class like that.

Your social sounds fun.
