Work

Ok just want to say I pretty much luv my new job. I work at subway. It is a pretty easy job not stressful at all really I think anyways. Idk if my co-workers think so. I luv my co-workers they are so fun. The one guy I work with is really funny the other day he accidentally sprayed himself in the eye with sanitizer it was really funny he was like " awww crap that really hurt!" It was really funny. It was kinda my fault though that is happened. I spilled some lettuce and he swept it out of the place we keep the lettuce and he needed to sanitize it cuz that's just gross even though they are in bins but whatever. So he had to go clean it out lol. Then today I asked if there was anything I needed to do and my boss said to go check the dinning room and the guy said that he had already done it and my boss turns to me and says " go check the dinning room" lol. He doesn't always do things very well. I need to teach him a thing or two lol jk jk. So I really like my job and its fun. So there's the DL of my job tehe.

Shopping With Siblings GRRR

LOL, ok so I went shopping with my siblings today and just let me say never again with all of them. We went in for like 10 items and it took an hour. That is just a bit ridiculous if you ask me. We got all the food but my younger sister kept wondering off with the kart along with her mind lol. And my lil bro just was being well a lil bro. And any were we went me and my older sis were like "get back here" or "were did they go now?" Shopping shouldn't be that complicated I think. But it was kinda funny all the same but just some advice feed them before you go out. We stopped by subway in Walmart before we went shopping and I was wearing my uniform and the one guy behind the counter looked sooooo cunfused it was soo funny. So moral of the story wear your uniform to another store and confuse the people lol.

Funny Moments

Ok so this blog is about duh funny moments. I think this past week has been very interesting and for me sooo blonde. So the first 2 stories are of friends. The first story is about my friends mom. I was at the mall with her mom and two other friends and my sister and her brother and sister. We were on our way out and this lady said hello and my friends mom said hello back. I just started laughing sooo hard. Because the lady walking by was on her cell phone and my friends mom just thought it would be funny to say hello. And it was. The second story is of my friends brother. Who sometimes doesn't think through things lol. So they were on their way to Denny's and a cop was following them the whole way. The cop walks up to her brother and says, " Sir have we had too many drinks tonight??" and her brother says, "no" the cop then says, " why did you park in a handicap parking space then." Her brother then is like aahuuhughg. So the cop asks for his license and registration and her brother gives the cop his visa card. LOL didn't help his case much right. funny funny funny. Now for my blonde moments. I was on AIM and someone wrote mk. I was like what does that mean. He was like mmmkkkkk. I was like oooohhhh I get it sorry blonde moment. Then someone else said they were house rehibilitating. I was like ooh. I thought he was like at his house rehbilitating from drugs or something. He just meant like flipping a house lol. I am such a dork sometimes. lol. Right know I can't remember anymore but I am positive that there are more so there is my little ness on my dorkiness. My friend said one time that if you want to sound smart add ness at the end of everything and if you want to sound cool add Laaddddiiieesss at the end of everything. How you doing Laaadddiiiesss. lol luv you man

Life

Life can be really hard sometimes. Lately my life has been kind of crazy just because of some stuff that has happened in our church and in my family. Even though things can get messed up in life we still need to keep our eyes focused on Christ which can sometimes be hard when we are to focused on the things of this world or the problems we have. One time I think on a retreat one of the speakers asked what makes a mountain a mountain. He said it depends on how you look at it. If you are looking at it through your own eyes sure it's huge cause we can't do anything on our own. But when we look at the problem through God's eyes then it is just a little mole hill which it was the whole time we just were to stupid to realize. Even though life can be crazy God is always there for us. It amazes me how loving and compassionate God is toward us. My one friend on Sunday what just testifying about how great God is. And I started thinking about it. In troubled times God always prepares us for what is coming. Why would he prepare us? Because He loves us so much. It just amazes me how much He cares and loves us even when we are so stupid and rude to Him sometimes. The stories of Peter are really encouraging to me because even though he messed up so many times God still forgave him and Peter would come back and repent and go on his way again to serve the Lord. So even though we mess up so many times God is still waiting for us to repent and come back to Him and serve Him. God is amazing and I love how he cares for me even when I mess up. I encourage you to look through the problems of life through Christ's eyes and see the mole hill not the mountain.
Praise God,
Ellie

Sleep

I luv sleep. It makes me very happy when I am cranky or hey even tired. I luv the feeling when you are so tired and you lay down in your comfortable bed and you feel so relaxed and so like your done and then you close your eyes and you are off to a wonderful time in la la land. I luv dreams also. Except ever since we came back from Texas I have been dreaming about Texas and the people I have met and it has been qutie odd I must say. So there, you know my view on sleep. lol

The universe

This post is for the people in VA who want me to write about all the completely random stories I told them and all the things I thought very deeply about and they just thought I was weird. Which I don't completely disagree with them tehe. So one day, I don't know where I was but whatever. So I was thinking about, you know some people are like, " well who is upside down and who is right side up on the earth?" so I was like well the northern hemisphere will never be "upside down" we are always right side up. So then I thought that the gravitational pull on the southern hemisphere must be stronger because they are upside down so the earth has to try harder to keep them "in" the earth. Now for me this is some hard thinking I really thought about it. So I go to my friends graduation party and tell like 7 people about my theory and the guy next to me just was like "well how do you know this?" I was like "I don't know I just have a theory" So throughout the night we would come back to it and they would all pick on me about and the dude sitting next to me, just want to say a shout out to you by the by lol, me and him would just go back and forth about it and it was funny. And then everyone around the fire was like "you need a blog to write all this weird stuff down" lol I am not bitter I thought it was fun but I just thought I would tell you all about my very deep thinking. Also one little thing I thought about on the way up was, I saw two mormons walking and I thought about there name. "Mor" "Mon" It sounds like More Men lol. They got a kick out of that. So there is my post dedicated to the dude that sat next to me you know who you are, and all the VA people who I luv. You all are soo cool.
Luv,
Ellie

Names

Ok you all may think I am the most crazy person on earth but I think that names are the most brilliant name ever created. One day I was driving to church just thinking about names and I was like, "wow who ever came up with the idea of names what sooo smart" and I thought, " oohh yeah God did". So I went to youth group and told my friend and she thougth it was so funny. But I mean really, think about it. What if all our names were like numbers there would be like 100 10's or something. It would get a bit crazy. Then at my friends Graduation party they had some friends from VA come up and they were laughing at me and were like , "you are kind of strange " which is all good, I am cool with that. lol. I really like names and I think they are very interesting. My top names right now for boys if I have boys are Payton Jeremiah and Lewis Harold possibly not sure on that one yet thought. And I am not sure for girls names yet because I want at least 2 boys and a girl maybe 2 girls idk .
So there is my blurb on names.

Eyes

Hey there y'all!
You may think this might me a weird post but I think it is very interesting. I think eyes are very interesting. I mean they can see and they are very colorful. Iwas talking to some friends and thought I was just really weird but whatever to them tehe jk. My youth leader says that people who have hazel eyes just can't figure out what color their eyes are so they are jsut confused. Which I am going to defend the hazel eyed people and say that we aren't confused they just go changing colors on us dude. I luv having hazel eyes they are really pretty. One day I was looking at my eyes and I thought to myself "Man, I wish I had eyes like that" lol I do. tehe. I really like blue eyes and very much luv Hazel eyes and brown eyes are very pretty also. I don't know I just really like eyes. And just becuase I like those colored eyes doesn't mean that I like the people who have those color eyes just for all you people who may think that cause I mean my friend has brown eyes and I don't like him in a romantic way only in a brother in Christ way. So there is my little blurb about eyes.

My Testimony

Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death. For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh, so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
Romans 8:1-4
If you haven't noticed yet by the title, and by the scripture, I am going to write about my testimony. Like it says above, there is NO CONDEMNATION for those in Him. Which means if you are saved, its all good, God forgave you of all that. At youth group my friend was talking about her testimony and how even though she was forgiven she kind of thought it was still there. But guess what, she knows and I know that it's not. When you get saved God takes it all away and that was the old person and you are now new through Christ. That's what baptism symbolizes.The old dying and the new rising. I know to some of you guys this may be a shocking thing to hear, I mean my testimony. Some stuff I have never told anyone. I was to ashamed to tell anyone. But I thought why? God forgave me. If you think less of me then that's your problem, not mine. But the good news is that God made me new. Glory to God!! So now my story.
I grew up in a church going family. From the outside you would have thought wow, she has got the best life ever. But really it wasn't all that. My dad was angry and would just burst out and flip out randomly for no reason. Just because of that, doesn't mean I have an excuse to do that though, and I forgive him and stuff but whatever. My mom is the best she is so loving and I luv her so much even though we disagree sometimes. Anyways when I was like 5 I asked God into my heart and I got a prize and whatever. But I wasn't really saved. So life went on. I kept thinking I was saved even though I wasn't living the life or anything like that. In 6th grade my father got taken out of our house and more recently I was in 9th grade and my parents are divorced. It is hard sometimes because he is my dad but God takes care of me and I am happy. Anyways when I was in 6th grade an old friend of mine came over and wanted to show me this website, so I was like sure that's cool. Little did I know that she was about to show me a bad site that no one should go to. So I was like omw that's kind of weird. So she left and I was like I wonder what that was so I went back to it. And I went back to it and again, and again, and again. Until little did I know it had a hold on me. Then I started feeling like hey if they can do crap like that and other things why not me. I never did that stuff but I did things to make myself feel like it. I always justified it and said ooohh yeah there is nothing wrong with no one's getting hurt. It was hurting others adn me. Every time I would do it I would feel so guilty and be like I am soo sorry God please forgive me. But I would just go and do it again. I was the angriest person I was so hateful. I liked my friends I hated my family I was mad at what my life was like and all this other stuff. About a year ago I just got so fed up with always being mad and always messing up that I just cried out to God and asked him to save me. And ever since then I have been quite a happy person and God is still working on me. I am probably the biggest project he has lol. The the bad site has completely taken away my innocence and I am very regretful of it. When we were at YFN during the Purity session one of the interns told her testimony and my story was her story except for her mother not being there for her. And I had so much condemnation from what I did I just couldn't move on. After we went up to the alter the interns came to talk to us and the one that talked to me asked me if I had asked for forgiveness and I was like yeah, and she said God forgave me then and there is no condemnation in Christ. So praise God I am saved. Let this be encouraging or whatever but remember there is NO CONDEMNATION in Christ.
Luv your sister in Christ,
Ellie

Dating

Hi everyone,
This post is about dating and what the bible says about, what I think about it, and a Godly perspective on it. Okay I think that for anyone under 18 it is not a smart thing to do and it would really hurt you to date. I mean if it is Gods will for you to get married at a young age then he will show you but generally under 18, not good. And even when you do turn 18 doesn't mean oh hey I can start dating cause thats stupid I think. One reason is because you shared yourself with whatever other guys/girls so that many other people have "had" you and its not just your husbands/wives but all the other guys/girls you dated I am talking about your body and your feeling and thoughts and whatever else you do when you date, I don't know. Another reason why it isn't smart to date while still young is because your eyes are supposed to be on Christ while you are single and still young. How can you do that if you are dating someone because girls I know we can be a handful and need attention and guys you have to be paying the attention and paying for our stuff. You can make up all the excuses you want like "ooh I luv them" or, "my eyes are on Christ" but you know they aren't really or "I am dating them to get them saved". HAHAHA bad company corrupts good morals. You can't afford. You should be saving up for something like a car or college or something like that. You can't afford it also in the spiritual aspect either because your eyes are being taken away from were they need to be and before you know it bye bye church hello world. Also it says not to be unequally yoked which means that you shouldn't be dating someone not saved because first off why would you want to, they're the child of the devil and you are the child of Christ, oil, water, ringing a bell. And if they are a christian or a "christian" then their eyes should be on Christ and maybe God will bring you together, but it's not the time for that right know. We need to keep our eyes on Christ and even just saying like "ooh he's cute" can distract you it does for me so don't say it can't cause it can. I encourage you to ask God to help you with it because I have a really hard time not, especially with Godly guys cause hello they luv the same God I do. Dating is for the sake to get married. Every time you date someone, you give a little bit of you heart away. So when you get to your husband/wife and you have dated a lot, you can't give him/her all you heart cause you just gave a bunch of it all away. Also guys you should be able to support your future wife so go get a job and work hard unto the lord. I don't know about you other girls but I want a husband who can provide for me and be there for me and luv God more than me cause that is important. Girls it is really hard for any guy to keep there eyes were they need to be when you want them to be looking down your shirt or somewhere else. Come on be modest. For you, you should keep all that stuff for your husband because it is something to treasure and for them and them only, your husbands I mean. And if you got it DON'T FLAUNT IT. That is for your husbands and not for everyone else, so cover up. You can be in style without showing all you treasures to the world. And guys come on keep your hands to yourself and leave the girls alone because you need to keep your luv for Christ and for your future wife so BACK OFF. So I hope that was encouraging for some and convicted some of you and I hope you will take it to heart. And guys I encourage you if it is distracting look at the sky/ceiling or anywhere but there, and I understand in school its a bit hard but you can do it, in the bible it asks have we gone to the extreme unto death to not sin?? So guys do whatever it takes to keep from that. And it is embarrassing for me to see others and that guys are seeing that. So knock it off and put on some clothes girlie's.
Stay pure and keep your eyes on Christ.

My YFN trip

Hey everyone,
Just want to tell you all about my trip down to Texas. It was a blast. I met some really cool people who totally luv God and a dude who looks like Keith Green how cool is that. The heat was awesome and I luv Texas. The school there seems like the most amazing thing ever. So what God did in me. He really helped and showed me some stuff that I didn't know and even some stuff I did know. The thing I didn't know was that I had unforgiveness in my life toward my father and so I had to go and repent for that. That was like ouch, that burned. Also something else that He showed, I think that I am supposed to be a missionary and I think I am supposed to go to the college CFNI in Texas and possibly the CORE which is a summer thing in Texas also. God also showed me that I am very distracted. Like every time I look at someone I'm like ooh someone to talk to. Also whenever I talk to any guy , forget it no more my attention. That is a serious thing because my eyes are supposed to be on Him and Him alone. My life as a single teenager is to live my life for Him not for me. Until I am old enough to even start dating my eyes should still be one Christ. Soo for some of the hysterically funny things that happened. One was I met this one guy named Zach. First his name is Zach Frost lol how funny is that. Second he came to eat dinner with us and my one friend looks at him and says whats your name Zach. ...... I am there laughing soo hard and he is on the floor laughing no joke. I was like were did he go and he's on the floor and I just couldn't handle it. Another thing that happened was we had a talent show and a group of 4 guys sang a song about tacos lol. Are tacos good for u u, are tacos good for u u lol luv it. Another thing is charlie. Charlie you bit my finger lol. Julian couldn't make my fingers go together lol. It only worked on him and his sister mysterious I think. Then one day I was walking and freaking out at one kid in my youth group b/c he burns so easily and he didn't put any sun screen on and then this kid behind me looks at me and is like "your his mother". I was like shut up and then we became friends but it was funny and then he told this one girl who was on my nation and she later asked me if I really had a son and I was like lol, no it was just a joke tehe. So life is good and I miss everyone and everything like crazy so yeah.
Luv in Christ
no were near perfect
