Jesus can You show me just how far the east is from the west?

About Me

If you haven't figured out my name by now, I worry for you. I'm 20ish years old. I LOVE Jesus Christ! He's really amazing and the best friend/brother/lover that someone can have. And I know that might sound a little messed up to some, but trust me, if you knew Him, you'd understand. I work at an amazing place called Rabbit's Foot Garden Center and Bistro. I love pretty much all of my co-workers, and its just a fun place to be. I'm a youth leader for highschool girls at my church. I gots one of the coolest cell groups possible. I can pretty much do anything if I decide to. Except fix cars and sell stuff. And even that I could probably do if I REALLY wanted to. But I don't. I got alot of siblings... 7 to be exact. 5 brothers and 2 sisters. I'm the oldest. We were/are all homeschooled, which makes us smarter or dumber than the rest of society depending on which we decide we want to be at the moment. I love rain and thunderstorms! I really really love music. Pretty much any kind of music... except rap.... and polka... and old mountain folkish music. Those kinda suck. I like to watch the Disney channel (I know, its for kids.. but its cute!) and I have an odd fascination with the Discoverey channel... but that's about the extent of my TV viewing habits. I like to sing in the car, even though I really can't sing very well. I really love having my windows open almost all the time. But my mom doesn't like it so much when the air conditioning or heat is on. I want to go to India! It would be cool to live there for a while too. After I go there, I'd like to go pretty much everywhere. I LOVE LOVE LOVE kids! I wanna adopt kids when I get married. I'm extremely pro life... so don't EVEN start talkin smack about how kids/babys are accidents! And I think I'm gonna shut up because I don't think my "about me" section has ever been this long before...

Feelings of Less Than

To pray for a prayer revolution. It could strike one as kind of humerous. But really, what else would make more sense? I find myself in that exact position right now. Without fully realizing what I wa...
