K-State Proud

Tonight, I had the great opportunity of going with a group and going to the Manhattan Regional Airport and greeting the players after they got back from Salt Lake City. It was so good to see them in such great spirits. You could really see that they appreciated that people had come out, they walked around and took pictures with everyone that asked, hugged everyone and thanked them, and also they signed all the autographs that people asked for! It was so great! I am so super proud of those guys and couldn't be ANY prouder to call myself a Kansas State Wildcat! =D


The Great group that went:
Greeting the Fans
Rachel was excited for Kelly being behind her!
Frank doing interviews
Curtis Kelly! (Favorite Player! =])
Jacob Pullen signing autographs
Wally Judge
Jacob Pullen! =)

Summit

For my spring break, instead of going home, I had the amazing opportunity to go to Colorado with Christian Challenge. I went last year and about 67 people went. This year, about 100 more people went. It was crazy, yet so great at the same time. I have never seen so many amazing people wanting to live for God. The speaker was Gordon MacDonald and he was probably the most amazing speaker I have ever had the privilege to listen to. At Summit, we had olympics, we swam, we worshipped, we hiked, we had fun. =) I am so glad I got to go again this year and I cannot wait until next year!

God's creation is breathtaking!

He Is Mighty

So, I have been really busy and a lot has been going on so I haven't really been able to write, but I have learned a lot about myself. One thing for instance, I cannot do things on my own! I need to talk to people. Now, for me, that is way harder than it looks. Don't get me wrong, I love to talk, just not to deep because I feel as if I am burdening them and making them listen. Now, I also know that isn't true, but I keep telling myself and that is one of the biggest ways the enemy gets into me. This past Sunday, I was having a pretty difficult night and i went to talk to Erika and when I was done I felt so relieved to have someone like her to talk to at 8:30 at night or anytime. =) I am blessed. On the way back to Putnam, I heard the song 'Mighty to Save' by Hillsong. The part that really stuck out to me is the part that says, "So take me as You find me, All my fears and failures, Fill my life again. I give my life to follow everything I believe in, now I surrender.
My Saviour, He can move the mountains, My God is Mighty to save, He is Mighty to save.
Forever, Author of salvation, He rose and conquered the grave, Jesus conquered the grave."
I heard that and realized that I was acting ridiculous. Why won't I talk? Oy. Stupid Emotions. Whatever. ;) I am going to try my hardest to talk to people when they ask, right now, the only people I truly talk to and who truly know me are my Life Group girls and of course my mom and sister. I am not going to tell my whole life story to people now, but if they ask, I will just go a little deeper, even if it is a little weird. Thanks to everyone. =)
