Busy, Busy, Busy

This past week was my first week of school.  Senior year.  (Oh my goodness.  It's crazy!  I don't feel like a senior!  I'm too short to be a senior!)  And this it has been really tough for me!  Getting up at 6 in the morning?  Homework?  Gross school lunches?  WHAT!  When is summer break?

So, my schedule was all messed up (of course) and I had a crazy few days trying to figure out if I should take AP classes or stick with basketball and i decided basketball!!  I was really stressing out about it but I know I definitely made the right decision!  I absolutely love those girls on my team and I'd rather be with them everyday than in a boring English class!  They are great girls and I know I need to be there for them.  So, I got everything straightened out and I'm so relieved!  

But I feel like I am getting very busy, very fast.  And I like being busy.  I'd rather be doing something than nothing!  And that's the bad thing.  Because I get too busy for important things!  Like reading my bible.  Talking to God.  And sleep!  This year I really want to grow in my relationship with God.  I want it to be stronger than ever before I go off to college!  Oh man. That is SO weird to think about. 

Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. (Isaiah 40:28-31)
  
This verse is wonderful!  It really makes me feel a lot better because I know MY GOD has me in his hands!  He is going to give me strength to get through the days and He has given me great friends and a wonderful family to help me!

Me and some AMAZING girls are going to have a Girl Accountability Group! (GAG) Ha!  Just kidding!  But we are going to meet once a week to pray and I am so excited for it!  That is just what I need to stay on track and not lose sight of why I am here!  EEK.
