Jesus, HELP. Amen

A 'Hope'full Prayer.

Hey God. Thank you for this ever so lovely day, for my youth group and their antics. I love them.

Thank you for Hope. Thank you for our friendship. I'm glad that You've helped me past what issues I had with her because we're kind of pumped to do this good friend thing now. Thank You for helping us 'Breakthrough' that wall we had, that wall that kept us apart. My wall of Jealousy, of dislike and pride. It was quite silly, wasn't it? Quite. I'm hopeful about our future, to see where we go together. I can't wait till i get to make music with Hope, to praise You and Your wonderful creation. Be with Hope. And let hope be with me.

In hope,
Amen

A Sara(h) Prayer

Abba Father, Sarah just texted me. It made my week. We miss singing for/to you together. We're super pumped for Christmas. Thank you for my singing partner and unspeakably amazing friend. She takes me words away. Thank you for letting Sara get to Europe safely. And thank you for facebook chat. Thank you for my favorite counselor whos influenced me so much this summer. I can't fathom how different my life would be without her. Be with Sarah at Vandy and help her to have a stellar year. She was my very last counselor and holds a reallly special place in my heart. And shes so beautiful. Be with Sarah Anna and her ridiculously busy scheduel. Be with Sarah as she wants so badly to be back at the Village of Hope doin her work for you. Thank you so much for my best frann Sara. I need to thank you every single day for her presence in my life. Life is a precious gift and i think sometimes we forget that. I know I do. Thanks for my girls. I love them so much and You've blessed me so much through them. I miss every single one of them all day, every day.

The End

A Thank You

God, thank you for tiring days. For Bible discussions. For abstract art projects. For bringing swords and things to English when reading Beowulf. For amazing chapel kickoff weeks. For show and tell. For ridiculous lunch discussions. For cramming for Government tests. For Your wonderful gift of a cappella. For the last class of the day. For dinners with best friends and Calc teachers. For football games, even when we loose. For "Bananas." For "Attack!" For brownies. For texts from Elizabeth reminding me she loves me. For Jacob being the best high five buddy ever. Thanks.

Aaaaaaamen

A start.

Hey Jesus,

First off, Thanks for friends. Friends like Rick, Andrew, Rachel, Lawrence, Sara, Sara, Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Jennie, Melissa, Alyssa, Mikayla, Kayla, Ingrid, Kristen, Lisa, Preston, Troy, Hannah, Meredith, Truett, Kristi, Ragan, Andy, Abbie, Alix, Elizabeth, Amanda, Amanda, Amanda, Amanda, Amber, Andrew, Angela, Angela, Bethany, Bethany, Bethany, Elena, Ashley, Ashley, Becca, Becca, Becca, Bonnie, Courtney, Emma, Emma, Natalie, Hannah, Whitney, Johnny, Hope, Rachel, Rachel, Jacob, Jacob, Jacob, Claire, Rhett, M.C., Maria, Morgan, Melanie, Christina, Christina, Melora, Michaelantonio, Missy, Paige, Shannon, and SO many more. They're Impossible to number.

Secondly, I don't like missing them. I know its part of life, but I really really really hate it. I hate not having them all right next to me, not getting to hug them and hold their hands whenever and whenever I want, not getting to cuddle, WORSHIPING with them, neglecting campers and sleeping in their beds, hanging out until dumb hours of the morning, and just being with them. I missing Singing with them, Crying with them, talking to them about everything, getting to know them. Im not content with phone calls, Text messages, Letters, and Facebook messages anymore. I want their faces. and I want them now. I miss the laughs, tears, confused looks, Judgmental looks that didnt actually judge you, looking at them like theyre the adorable little kid I babysit and they just did something dumb and cute. I miss everything about the ones Im not around. I thought i was ready to accept the end of summer. and I guess I am, but i wasnt ready for them to go back to real life and thus become wayyyy too removed from me. I just dont completely know how to handle it. I cant handle crying hardcore for 40 minutes, trembling. Maybe I'm just weak. Maybe its just me. But im just not okay with this pain, God. Take it from me if its your will.

Third, Be with Shockley. His dad died last night. And while Mr Shockley SR, is hangin out and kickin it with you, Shockles is one of the ones left behind. We know you mourn for him. Keep him safe and strong. And be with Rick as his life is coming back together after dumb highschool Drama. And Bethany and Ang are ridiculously busy. Keep them Sane.

Fourth, help me be a regular at this. I like it. I get less distracted. It gives me something tangible. Something to finish and focus on. It helps me out. Thanks for the idea, HS. :]]

Lastly, LOVE AND HELP.

In the words of Ingrid, PEACE OUT, JESUS.
