Okay, now I finally have time to respond to the hype I had yesterday. While I am still out of my house and officially dropped out of school (I begin tutoring soon, and please pray that I will get to be a junior next year!), I am so pleased with God, I can't even put it into words. My body still hurts, some days worse than others (the other day I could barely lift my arms to shampoo my hair in the shower, and mornings are still my mortal enemy, next to pimples), but there is not a day that I am not thankful for it. I know it sounds to weird to say that this is a blessing and I am so happy that this has happened to me, but thats literally the truth. I have come to a point where my soul is in a better place than any other time in my life. I finally see how great, wonderful, incredible, amazing, and loving my God is. I can't even describe it, let me put it this way:
There are over 150,000 words in the average dictionary, how can I explain how much I love God and how great he is with such limited resources?
He is so good to me; He has molded and weilded my soul, and I am so strong and SO happy now. Sure there are bad days, and life definatly isn't easy, but I have come to a level of self-dependance and God-dependance that most kids my age never have to endure. I have found that I no longer place my happiness on material things: boys, money, jobs, friendships, or clothes. My friends will still be my friends if I don't call them every night, or do something every single weekend. God will always provide for me. My happiness is dependant on Him, and I find you never get depressed that way (He'll NEVER let you down, and that's so much safer than boys or friends lol)
"I tell you, do not worry about your life; what you will eat. Or about your body, what you will wear. Life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. Consider the ravens, the do not sow or reap. They have no storeroom or barn, and yet God feeds them. And how much more valuble you are than birds!" -Luke 12: something something...I wish I could remember that because I read it all the time. 24-26 maybe.
I don't know what more I can say. I love Him, I love Him, I love Him!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love you all too! peaches

Do not be decieved,Wormwood.Our cause is never more in danger than when a human,no longer desiring,but still intending to do God's will,looks round upon a universe from which every trace of Him seems to have vanished,and asks why he has been forsaken,and still obeys.-CS Lewis,Screwtape
