Now don't be afraid, I'm not announcing my engagement, an elopement or anything of the sort. My cousin is getting married this weekend, and I am privilaged to be able to attend the ceremony. I am really looking forward to it, she is going to make a beautiful bride, and she and her soon to be husband seem to be a great couple.
I will admit something here and now...I am a girl! This means that for as long as I can remember I've been planning my perfect wedding. It is fun to think abou that day, what it will look like and all that jazz. I'm nowhere near ready to get married. I'd be perfectly satisfied to remain unmarried all of seminary, but if God does bless me with a wedding of my own in the next few years, here is what I want for my wedding.
Bridesmaids: Kris, Bethany, Hannah and Chanel
Ring bearer: Carl Pastor in charge: Jon W.
Persons to pray at beginning and end: Kim & Noelle Pianist: Aunt Lisa
Duet: Rockin Years (sung by Kris and ???) and House Hold of Faith (sung by Tammi and Dusty T.)
Photography: Tim Doolin
My Dress: I plan to wear Grandma Betty's wedding dress
Colors: well I wanted purple and silver but Kris stole those (u best be glad I'm not making u flower girl chica) so now I'm thinking Navy blue and silver, or kelly green and silver
Location: Sheridan, Wyoming (St. Peter's)
Reception: nothing fancy in the reception hall at the church with cake, punch and maybe some finger food
Time: 2 pm (my hubby and I will be gone by 5!!!!-ya'all can stay as long as u want)
Decorations: simple: some tool and maybe a few flowers, nothing too fancy, heck I'd be fine serving people their cake on paper towels!
Honeymoon Location: nothing too expensive, maybe a cabin in the mountains, or a hotel in DC (I know, not typical, but hey, neither am I, I want to go somewhere that I enjoy) or maybe if we get real fancy some ski lodge. All I want is a comfy bed with beautiful scenery and a jacuzzi tub (heck that's what I want in a house).
Ok, I think that covers the major stuff. The other details my wedding planner (Kris) can deal with. Oh, the husband you ask. Well that will be easy, I don't know maybe the prince of Antarctica or something. I haven't gotten that far yet, and I'm not in a hurry, this is just a fancy, a fun thing for a girl to think about when she can't sleep! Now that I've shared and gotten this out of my brain and onto electronic paper I might be able to sleep. My brain really needs an on/off switch! I'm off to go meet with the Sandman. Have a blessed day.

This Week's Verse
If you don't know what you're doing, pray to the Father.
He loves to help. You'll get his help, and won't be condescended to when you ask for it.
Ask boldly, believingly, without a second thought.
James 1:5-6 (The Message)

I love my Green Bay Packers!
3-0, 3-0, 3-0!!! For the first time in years and years the Packers are 3-0!!!!!! This is so very, totally iced! It is ultra mag!!! My Packers are off to a great start! I could go on and on and on about how Brett Farve is setting records this season (winningest QB ever, most consecutive starts as a QB-new record each game, most TD passes, etc.) but I won't! We will suffice it to say that this season is proof that the Packers are a team to be reckoned with. Brett Farve has thrown TD passes to all sorts of his team mates this season, showing that we may be a young team, but we can play the game at the highest level.Our defense is a wall with very few holes-maybe the government should talk to the Packers about how to keep unwanted people out of the country, cuz we don't let too many of our opponents by us!!! 3-0 a great start and a promise of a great season! Defense or Offense we are winning games and getting the job done! The G-Force is in the house! A great way to say "Happy 50th Birthday Lambeau Field"!

Micah 6:8
But He's already made it plain how to live, what to do, what God is looking for in men and women. It's quite simple: Do what is fair and just to your neighbor, be compassionate and loyal in your love, And don't take yourself too seriously—take God seriously.

Good morning!
This will be short, because I am in Old Testament right now, and it is one of my favorite classes. Dr. Yates is great. If you can, take a class from him someday. I am learning so much in this class. So why am I using my valuable class time to write??? Good question, I just have so much to say, that I want to say it right away!
First of all. Pray for our nation and leaders, not just today as we remember 9/11/01, but everyday. Pray that our nation elects God's choice in 2008. Also pray for each other. We all have crazy lives and need prayer each day. Even if we don't know what is going on in each other's lives, God does and He honors the prayer of the faithful. Finally, pray for your friends and neighbors, that there will be revival and a great harvest soon.
To end, just have a great day. Remember that one day I was so busy that I didn't take time to pray. The day was hectic, my car wouldn't start, classes were terrible, I got sick, and went to bed feeling drained. So much went wrong that day. The next was so busy that I just knew that I had to start it with prayer! (not my thoughts, but I agree) The busier we are the more in need of prayer we are. Take time to pray, it will be the best part of your day.

Welcome!
Dear Readers,
Hello and Good morning! It is Tuesday September 11, 2007. My thoughts and prayers today are for all those who lost friends, coworkers, or family on the tragic day 6 years ago. I also pray that somehow our nation uses the signs of the times to come to know and depend on Christ. He is the only one that is able to bring healing and peace.
For those of you that just happened upon this blog, let me introduce myself. I am a young woman (24) attending Liberty Theological Seminary, in my first semester. I am pursuing my Master's of Divinity in Pastoral Counseling.
Upon graduation (in about 3 years) I want to be a counselor working with military women and families, especially women/children that have been abused. God brought healing to me when I went through my hell, and I want to show other people the joy and peace, and true healing that only comes through Jesus Christ. He promised to give us peace, and He follows through.
A main focus of this blog will be for rape and abuse victims and survivors. When we go through hell on earth we need an outlet, a safe place to turn, a place that will give us answers and show that we are not alone. Hopefully this blog will provide that.
I also want to use this blog to show that not only are you not alone in your journey from abuse victim to abuse survivor, but you can thrive again. It may not seem like it, but you can live joyfully after rape.
