that's all i know to say about today is that it's been a whirlwind. Wow. one minute I am seriously crying my eyes out, and the next i'm fine. It's been such a strange and exhausting day. i can't even believe I'm up at this hour. it's 11:51 to be exact. I DO see why moving is best for my family, but at the same time, my flesh is telling me that it's not fair and i should be able to stay. i'm declaring victory over my flesh in Jesus' name. A friend reminded me today that no matter where i am on this earth, i am not home. Amen. wow.
so, even though i cannot see in this darkness, I am trusting the Light.
I have all these ideas... tonight, i got the BEST idea for a canvas. but i won't tell you yet! i'll post a picture on here when i'm done. i'm super excited.
I'm starting a new journal soon.. i need a place where i can go and just throw up my feelings. and then i'm going to keep one with prayer requests in them. sounds so wonderful to me. i want a pretty one from barnes and noble (www.barnesandnoble.com) with the leather covers and the cool string that closes it.
Old pictures really make me laugh. A friend found this picture from 4 years ago of a ton of girls on the way to Breakthru (an amazing retreat!) and it is SO funny to see all of us. Some had braces, some had awful haircuts, some of us didn't quite know how to put on make up. it was just so funny to look at. I love that... definitely brightened my day.
I'm getting a new computer this week! i have a netbook right now, and i absolutely LOATHE it. it doesn't even have a cd drive. i should've researched it more before asking for one... you live and you learn! i'm getting a dell, which i'm excited about. it's actually just like my netbook but bigger, which means more memory and a cd drive. praise the Lord!
I'm currently OBSESSED with Drew and Ellie Holcomb. They are just the cutest couple and they are amazingly, talented musicians. look them up on itunes under drew holcomb and the neighbors or their myspace is www.myspace.com/drewholcomb . and they have a facebook- go to your searchbar and search DrewandEllie Holcomb. Their music is awesome, and they are SO in love. it is amazing. they inspire me.

you know what makes you so great, Jordan? You always care more about your disposition than your circumstances. =) You can (and will) be happy anywhere, because you'll always find a reason to praise God for who He is and what He does in your life. I'm going to miss you SO much. but there are new friends to be made in FL, and new ways to grow in Christ. Don't forget to look forward to all of the new and cool things you'll find there... I remember dreading my move to MS, so far away from everything familiar, but it's been the best 5 years of my life! =)
