Tonight i went to a former instructor/friends house. She has a nice house and it was a good experience. These kind of events make me stop and think about how life was and how it is now. Both are good and enjoyed the experience tonight and remembering the good times. Also enjoyed catching up with people that i don't get to see often. It also has made me remember where i have come and how far. In some ways i feel stuck and want to move forward but that is hard to do considering my circumstances but in a way it is good to be where i am at. Life has been teaching me in some cases to slow down and enjoy life where it is. But in some to move on and keep going forward. Problem is i don't know what to do. I guess prayer, and wide open mind an thought before action is in order.

Like i love cvcc but in some respects i want to move forward to a thriving fitness center where can be challenged and i also feel that life is not going fast enough. It is hard for me to slow down and let things happen like they should. Big goal get a part time job so i can get out of debt because that is one way i am feeling stuck, i am needing to get money to get a better car, and pay some misc bills off. This is not a way to get rich just to get a better grip financially. The other is waiting to see what will happen to cvcc. I don't want to leave too soon because there maybe some hope yet. But not just to stay to stay. I do enjoy the people and the convenince of it being so close to my job. I will at least wait until i am mentored by Ricarda for step class and watch for opptys to use my experiences to help other people where i was. I miss the past but not all of it and the future is not easy because i don't know what it holds and but i like the fact that i have much more to learn and more growing to do.

I am looking forward to my 4 day weekend ahead. I need to write a list of things i want to get done and do while i am off. Hopefully i can do some relaxing while i am off. Tommorrow i get to go watch a movie hopefully it is a good one

Okay i have thoughts today but don't know to let them out. Several issues is going on with me but don't how to make them come out making sense. Maybe because they are not supposed to make sense, maybe i am thinking on them too much. One involves service at church, the other is complicated. This would be a good time to have a close friend near had experience in this one area. I am talking broadly because i be sharing this blog. All i say it involves a human. I tend to think too hard about things and they could be simple but i tend to think on it way to much. Then make them to be out more than they are. I am going to try to pray and not worry/think about it. Thank you Lord for your Love and goodness to me. Thank you i don't have to rich in my own eyes or the worlds eyes. That rich is better when you are blessed by God and have the relationship you should have with him. Today BSBC had a good service and glad that i went. Sometime i want to visit LCBC Lancaster city sometime. Maybe i can do it before i can to bright side sometime. Also i want to visit crossroads sometime again. Just not sure when because i don't like to miss my own church. Some Sunday i will have to make the sacrifice. Looking forward to what God is going to bring me in the coming months, year ahead.

Hello world. Today i am feeling like i either need to get a part time job and a new car. There seems to be 4 things wrong with the car that i have now. Looking for a answers, will be going to Lord in prayer about this one first instead of trying to fix it on my own.

I wonder why some days why in the world i have to go through the things i do. But i realized that everyone has to go through something and why not me in my situation and stuff that i am going through. Thankful that i have the Lord on my side to help me along this journey.


Just trying to keep in mind prayer changes things and can provide the right answers for the situations that we go through in this life.

So my blog is called my blessed life. It is blessed, but sometimes i feel like it isn't just because of the circumstances that happen in it. But i have to go and look at the WHOLE picture of what my life is and not what a small part looks like or what happens at that moment or day. Like today i was coming home heading towards health ministry meeting, and my two passenger tires blew holes in them and had a dilemma on my hands. The Lord brought over to people that asked how i was and to make sure i was okay. At the time i didn't take it as helpers but now that i look at it, it is. I am thankful that i have aaa's, that even though it was tough to experience had a decent place to be until stay until three A's came to help me and tow my car to the shop to get two new tires. Also the fact my mom was able to come and help me, the Good Lord made sure a bad situation come into a okay ending. He made sure i help, to get the things i needed in that situation. In life you have to take the good, bad and the ugly. But I am thankful that i have the Lord through them all. Sometimes you get to go over the mountain but sometimes you have to go through it or through the valley moments. But He is always there with you and make sure you sailing isn't as bumpy as could be.

Today i was able to go to a baseball game, good time but didn't stay the whole time. There was a youth that sang today the national anthem, she has a God given gift of singing. Overall i didn't have a wonderful day but it wasn't a bad day either. Things happen in life that are not pleasant but that is life. God didn't say our lives would be a bed of roses, but wait maybe he did. In the roses there are some thorns and some not straight stems. So in that sense life is a bed of roses. It just not the pretty part of the roses sometimes.

Tomorrow is fathers day, i am remembering my father who help give me life. I didn't get to spend a lot of time with him but i am glad for the memories i do have of him and the life lessons that i learned from him. Like what to do and what not to do. Thank you God for giving me a dad ad many other men that you have brought into my life that has made a difference for the better and help me stay away from the life i could have had if i would have wondered off, etc.

Today I went to church, did Sunday school and church. Both were good learning moments and the Holy Spirit worked and helped me learn some things about me and how to handle everyday moments. A church that is close to where i live helped us out today. Instead of having church they cut our hedges, m0wed the lawn and did some weed picking. Be definitely be sending them a thank you note.


Now i made lunch and ready to relax and watch blindside. I wanted to watch it when it was in the movie theater but didn't get the chance. It is supposed to be a good movie. I guess will see. Some days i get tired of playing church but always in the pursuit of being real and down the earth. I don't want to play church i want to be real. Moms day was hard at work, they had a bad day and busy one. I am glad she is home now and can relax. Makes me grateful for a place that i can work that is air conditioned.

I am home now from friends party from work. Why do i let worry get the best of me? I worry that everyone is talking about me and also if be friend this person on facebook and don't someone else. Why do i worry? God says in his word that we should not worry. I wish i could not be so critical of me and of others.

I had a nice time at the party and did some socializing. I am getting out of my shy box. woohoo! But still staying true to who Denise is. Who is Denise anyway?
