Romans 5:9-11

Now that we are set right with God by means of this sacrificial death, the consummate blood sacrifice, there is no longer a question of being at odds with God in any way. If, when we were at our worst, we were put on friendly terms with God by the sacrificial death of his Son, now that we're at our best, just think of how our lives will expand and deepen by means of his resurrection life! Now that we have actually received this amazing friendship with God, we are no longer content to simply say it in plodding prose. We sing and shout our praises to God through Jesus, the Messiah!

Friends mean so much!

So here`s the dealie-oh, I have a huge list of friends but there are a few in my life that I adore. And they`ve been there for me through thick and thin.
Erica
Gabbi
Joryli
Julia
Kathleen
Mikaela
Nicky
Paula
Paul
Yaisa
I`ve told them everything, or basically everything. It is a good portion of my life that they know, and they understand, because they`ve been through the same stuff as me.
They know who I am, and it`s grand. I deserve people like this. And some say they deserve me.. how, I don`t know. I guess we`re all strange in our own way.
It`s like my family grew, new brothers and new sisters. :) God is good.
Once I graduated from PA (Pacific Academy), I told myself that I wasn`t going to get any new friends and I panicked. Because I thought that it was for sure going to happen, and ruin my life.
But it didn`t, I finally cleared that thought from my head and moved onto new and greater things.
God gave me a job with great people.
God gave me a new home with amazing family (What I like to call church).
There was one day I went up to Jaquie, and asked if I could help out at the church. She said for sure, and I got the whole day to help out. It was an interesting experience (in a good way, of course). This was when my whole new friendship began.
A bubbly girl came up and introduced herself to me. Her name is Yaisa. This was when I found out that she only lived up the street from me.
We go on adventures all the time. We went to New West for a Jazz Night, and I met more people. Gabbi, Nicky, Paula and Paul. And I was so glad, because they are so awesome!
Now I go on adventures with all of them all together, usually after church. I`ve basically been everywhere with  them. We`ve been to White Rock a couple of times, Vancouver, New West, Coquitlam (by mistake, but that`s a different story).
Another place, that is apart of the church, is Wildfire. And that has changed me a lot. Spiritually, mentally and physically (I don`t know how, but it has).
All the leaders there are amazing, and I love them. I could name all of them, but I feel that would be useless to you guys. And I`m pretty sure you all know them.

I`m just so thankful that I had this amazing journey of finding new and incredible people. I feel like God just threw them at me and gave me a challenge. A tough challenge, but I worked through it and made it work.
All I need to do is get to know them for who they are too. There are a few who don`t know me just yet, but God has it planned out. Don`t worry the day will come. :)
This church has given me lots of new friends and people I can call family. I`m just so thankful for this eventful life.
I just know that there is many more to come.
All I have to say is:

BRING IT ON, I`M READY!
