Fickle..

I learned that word in 9th grade Honors English when we were reading Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet". For those who don't know what it means, it kind of means change. In the play, Romeo was the fickle one. He wanted one girl, then he would change his mind and go after another one. He basically couldn't make up his mind. I have found that life is like that sometimes. It seems like you are headed in one direction, possibly one that is not in God's plan for you, and all of a sudden you seem to be going backwards. My moods have been fickle lately, as well. I am happy and laughing one minute and the next minute I have taken something way too personally. It is something I am praying about. If you have been in the pathway of my attitude lately, I sincerely apologize. I know it hasn't been the prettiest thing ever. I am working on it, with God's help.

It has been a busy month, hence the lack of blog posts. Two weekends ago, April 10th, we had the youth's 12 hour blitz. That was a night of fun for the youth from 7pm on Friday to 7am on Saturday. Aaron and I were there at 11 to start setting up. Jen and Alyssa showed up around 3, and then some others started showing up to help. It was a blast. Last weekend, April 16th- April 19th, I was in Washington DC. Awesome trip. If you want to see pics, they are posted on Facebook and Myspace. Well, some of them are. There were way too many pictures to put them all on there. This past Friday night, one of our youth, Bridget, organized a benefit concert to donate money to Blood:Water Missions. It is a mission that the Christian group Jars of Clay started to help give African people clean water. Bridget's concert raised over $3000! It was an awesome night of music and fellowship.

Well, hopefully I will update sooner than a month from now. I hope April was good for everyone, and hope everyone is enjoying this FICKLE spring. I don't think it can make up it's mind whether it wants to be nice or cold outside. Well, summer is on it's way. And that will be HOT. Hope you all have a wonderful week!!!
