About Me

My photo
I'm a 17 year old girl who loves everything about life, and the beauty God so generously allows us to witness everyday. I'm not complicated, and I'll let you know how I feel if I want you to know. My friends, family, and God mean everything to me.

With the Help of David Huff....

So today has been a pretty good day. Well, I should say yesterday..considering it's 12:25 am. I woke up, got in a fight with my mom, made up with her, went to lunch with her...had a great conversation (something that hasn't happened with my mom in God knows how long), came back home and got to relax until I headed over to Margie and David's house. When I got to Margie's house I got greeted by the cutest little man you could ever meet..and no, I'm not talking about David, it's ROMAN guys! haha He is just such a little blessing to me, I just love him so much. He has the best sense of humor out of anyone I know, and that's a lot of people. Anyway, I had been feeling weird like all day, and I realized that it was just an attack from the devil...which really made me mad, and it felt like there was nothing I could do to just get rid of the mood I was in. So we ate Margie's delicious meal and headed off to Living To Go church to see some crazy people play some crazy awesome worship music! haha It was amazing and definitely what I needed to get out of my funk. It's crazy how the devil knows when to attack, and excatly how..but I just need to learn how to put on my armor and press on. I have God on my team, so how could I not win, right? ;) Annnnyways, while I was at the Huff's house I was talking to David about my future and what he thought I should do...and I must say, he gave some pretty decent advice. I told him that I wanted to be a missionary, and thought it would be smart to go to college and major in business and minor in bible and ministry...but he shot that down pretty quick...

So guess what guys?!? I'm gonna be going to Vol State my first two years, getting involved in as many missions that I can, and becoming glued to The Church at Indian Lake. Then, once I'm done with college, hopefully y'all can ship me off to some other country so I can spread God's work to the rest of the world. How awesome will that be?!!!! :)

I'm pumped.

God is good, isn't he?

Margot, you are amazing and like I said last night, God is OBVIOUSLY not going to let you EVER get away because He has some major plans for you. Right now, just focus in where God has you...at High School and at youth and realize that RIGHT NOW you have a mission field, you little missionary :) That mission field needs you desperately. Always remember that you are already in the midst of fulfilling your calling. TODAY God is using you.

I just love you :)
