Happy Father's Day! :)

Heyyy, people. It's Father's Day 2010, and I have NOOO clue what to do for my dad. /: My siblings are coming over at 3... maybe they can help me come up with something! I don't know. Wish me luck with this.

So this morning at church, I realized something... People sleep in really weird ways! Hahah. That's not it though, I realized that I've come so much farther than I thought I did with my relationship with God. I still have plenty of ups and downs in my faith, but overall I feel good about it.
When I lived here before I moved away for 3 years, my relationship with God was AMAZING. Sure I was only 8, but it was probably the best relationship with God that I've ever had. And then when I moved everything fell apart, and I felt like all I could do was sit back and watch it crash and break. I thought I would never be the same, and I'm still not the same, but I'm getting there. I mean, the damage that is done will leave scars (literally), but it will also make my relationship with God that much stronger in the end. It just reminds me of what my amazing youth leader, Jenna Kraft once said: "When you feel like you're slipping away from everything, when you're about to let go... God is holding on to you with everything He has." I still have work to do, but my Father is holding my hand every step of the way. I don't know what the point of this, but I just felt like I needed to get it out of my head.

TTFN,
Heather <3

P.S. Some people really do sleep in strange ways. Hahaha. (Only Sunday Schoolers would get this.)
