so i had a really good day today... went to costco with my mommy and lil bro, bought a LOT of stuff (well, my mommy bought it all) lotsa good yummy stuff... like veggie juice, salmon and steaks! :P making me hungry...
i worked again today... i am so grateful cause my job is so much fun, i may not be making as much as i would like and i may not be working as much as i would like (i would love to work more) but my job is great, im really loving the whole helping people pick out clothes aspect of it all, so much fun! this job is a keeper, im going to hold onto it for as long as i can... even if i need to go down to 15 hrs, im still going to keep it! cause its easy, and so much fun!

i came across a really amazing verse this morning in my quiet time with God. it was in john chapter 15, talking about the vine and how when we allow Jesus to live in us and us in him, us as the branch will grow and be pruned to bear more fruit, and that we are called to bear fruit... i am not so sure which verse it was from, but the whole chapter really opened my eyes to such an amazing truth... it reminded me of who i am, where i am going and who i still have to become
i think that sometimes i get a little caught up in the person i want to be that i forget who i am right now... i forget that who i am today is important, and that yes i want to improve, yes i want to do more for the kingdom, i want to grow to become that woman God has intended for me to be, but he has also intended for me to be the woman i am today... RIGHT NOW!
and he expects me to take care of myself, he expects me to love myself, cause today, this day.. i am still his creation, i am already the woman he wants me to be, and he guides me and teaches me which makes me grow more and more i love the saying that goes

"God loves you for who you are, but loves you enough not to leave you like that"

something along those lines, i guess i feel that way right now, i was so worried and so asking God to make me into the woman i thought he has intended for me to be when i missed that i am already that woman..... that situations and things are going to create maturity and growth, but i am still me.... i cant change me.... cause i am already created, completely created just the way God intended.... so.... i need to embrace and realize this! yay!

I am beautiful... :)
