28. Almost An Adult

My friend Jamie and I were talking on the phone Sunday night and talked about a lot of stuff, but basically, it all revolved around our youth group's retreat to IHOP: One Thing Conference.

I'm super excited about this year's One Thing conference. For many reasons, but there's one reason that I'm going crazy over.

Let's start from the beginning.
My spiritual life has been a crazy ride so far. I used to be REALLY dry, just another Sunday-Christian. I didn't know about all the wonders God could reveal to a person, thus I didn't care for Him [but that was kind of fueled by a certain event in my life]. Anyways, this summer, I've been really blessed by God. He's shown me SOOOOO many things and I'm soo thankful. BUT. The things that have happened during the summer && the things that have occurred at other times haven't been LIFE-CHANGING. If y'git.

I may sound a bit selfish but I REALLY want a point in my life where I just surrender EVERYTHING of me to Him. I wish I could just do it. Not have anything actually happen to be, but willingly do it, but I guess God doesn't want to do it that way in my life. Which I'm pretty cool with :) Whatever He wants, I want.

Well anyway, Mike Bickle, a main speaker of the IHOP conference sent out a letter to the IHOP facebook group, which I am a part of. And in this letter, he emphasized on the facts that the One Thing program was gonna change and that there was a certain urgency to get many people to go to this year's one thing conference. THIS SPECIFIC CONFERENCE. Ahh! I'm excited because I received this same message, that there was a certain urgency, a certain life-changing event that was gonna happen in my life, that will change me and the course of my existence. And I really hope that this year's conference will do that. Jamie confirmed that she received the same message, and now that Mike Bickle has sent this message out, I'm pretty stoked. The message I got from God has been confirmed, TWICE.


HOW FREAKING EXCITING?! :D

So yeah. Anyways. I'm 17. I'm almost, legally an adult. And I need to make my own decisions. I need to learn to take control of my life. I need to break away from the shelter my mom created for me [errr...metaphorically speaking. hehe.] yeah. i needs change...haha :)

In Music Theory right now.

I've always wanted to be a movie buff & my teacher's a SERIOUS movie buff.
And we're talking about all the great movies he's seen. It's awesome.




I really want to go to the Magnolia & the Angelika.
