| Behold i come bearing news that i have not yet died. i don't even know if anyone uses xanga anymore but i was bored and i thought "hey i have a xanga" so i'm updating. God is good. if it weren't for knowing that i serve an almighty God who has everything under control i think i'd lose my mind. I want to encourage you to take a stand for the cause of Christ no matter what the cost. It may not be easy, you may have to sacrifice, the devil will try everything to hold you back and discourage you, but in the long run you will find no greater rewards than those obtained while serving the Lord and Savior.

| finally... an update!!!! i'm not going to go into all the long boring details of my life but it's been really busy! i've had Bible Quiz trips and Chamber of Commerce outings and all kinds of stuff. I also competed in the West Virginia Fine Arts competition in the preaching category and got 1st place so i'm going to a national competition in South Carolina in April. the church is preparing to go on a mission trip to Tennessee to help out at a camp for inner city kids from march 31-sometime in April so i'm getting ready for that. Life has been so fast paced and so hard to keep up with that i know that if it wasn't for the fact that i serve such an awesome God i would've gone nuts by now. over all i'm really happy with life right now and i can really see God working. a couple of months ago i was all gloom and doom about life thinking that it was over but God's redirected me and shown me that i need to trust in Him and obey Him and not just do my own thing. I challenge you to take heed to God's will... Lay aside your own desires and determine to fully trust in God, determine to follow Him no matter what the cost.

| just thought i'd update to let ya'll know that i'm alive.
it's been so awesome to see how God works things out. He gives and He takes away but ultimately it's all gonna work out in the end and it's going to bring glory to Him. God's been doin' so much in my life and i've still got a long way to go. I've had opportunities to witness to a bunch of kids lately and it's been so amazing to see what God can do when i'm actually surrendered to Him.
keep me in your prayers and just pray that i would continue to seek God's will above my own.

| My strength comes from the Lord.
I am week but He is strong.
I can do nothing but He can do all things.
My plans are nothing but God's plans are everything.
Running from God is useless.
I will place my trust in the Lord because He is my everything.

| Things have been tough the last couple days... Christmas was good but it's still been tough... We had a ton of family in and even though i've been surrounded by people the majority of the time, people who really care about me, i'm still havin' a hard time dealing with the fact that she's gone... Pray for me... Pray for me physically too... A couple days ago i got on the scale and apparently i've been losing weight (which is really bad) i've lost about 12 lbs. in a month and i'm starting to worry... It's just felt like the energy has been slowly sucked outta me the last couple days and i dunno if i'm sick or if it's just stress or what but just pray for me. thanks so much...
This is me getting over you, getting over meThe line is breaking, the sun is sinkingThere's nothing I can do to get back to youThere's nothing I can sayAs the stars lead the wayTo a place where memories dieHere lies a desperate heartCovered in scars and broken partsNever knowing what it's fighting forOnly knowing that it's love is sureThe line is breaking, the sun is sinkingThere's nothing I can do to get back to youBlood lines the leavesLeads the way for my feetTo a place where memories dieWe had a love like Johnny and JuneI felt alive, I would have died for youThe gallows on the hill cast a shadow for twoAs me and my love hang alone at high noonSo this is me getting over you, getting over me
