What a day today was...
Walked to school this morning...
Got to school made it to my locker,
got to my 1st hour class and do my
calendar job she wants me to do.
Was getting to write the day in spanish
when the fire alarm went off! O.o
Nothin like scareing someone that is
for sure..
So I put the marker down and the other
student that was in there and I walked outside
I grabbed my agenda and went out there,
my spanish teacher came running and shoved
us out the door. lol What a nice teacher I have.. lol
While out there I decided to take a look at my agenda
where I keep track of all homework and how many
days till the gathering... I happened to look and realized
I had told MTJ the wrong number this morning rofl
Only the second time I have done this....
We were out there for 30 min. got back inside and they
told us to go to 2nd hour... gr why couldnt it be the
other way around rofl
I love spanish and I dont like speech class lol
Anyways thats all we heard about all day was the fire.
We got out of school early today for "School improvement day"
they dont do anything for this so im not sure why we have it rofl
Got home and called my mom and told her how the morning
went with my siblings...
Told her about the fire and everything else..
she asked that I stack dishes.. indeed I did...
Been in chat all day now... Havent had but one lil issue with
someone and they just needed someone to talk to ..

God is Good!

I got 55 days of school left only counting week days, but really
have 50 because I am missing 5 days for sure...

65 days till the gathering! *ohyeah* its getting closer and closer!

Well thats all for now...

Tried on the streight jacket as well rofl

Not as bad as several but yet not as
good as some... No fire at school today
thank the Lord for that!
My grades at school went up... YAY *ohyeah*
still working on getting them up even more..
*Pray*
Woke up 10 min before I had to leave for
school this morning, meaning I missed breakfast,
no shower, no brushing my teeth... enought time
to get dressed and lunch packed and get all my
books back in backpack.. and out the door I went.
Didnt get hungry till right before lunch.... YAY
My PADD teacher was back today... Praise God for that!
She had open heart surgrey almost 3 weeks ago and came
back today, still in a lot of pain and you could tell she was..
she did go home early but it was great to see her back at
school...
*Pray* for her still...
I do have feelings that I havent felt before and im talkin
to God about it as well as getting help from someone else..
Its a good feeling but yet im totallly lost with it...
Thank God he sent this person my way to help with this...
well im still *Pray* that things will go the right way with this
and I know his will be done!

Wednesday, April 8th, 2009



Today is Wednesday April 8th 2009

Fruit of the Spirit" is a biblical term that sums up the nine visible attributes of a true Christian life. Using the King James Version of Galatians 5:22-23, these attributes are: love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness and temperance. We learn from scripture that these are not individual "fruits" from which we pick and choose. Rather, the fruit of the Spirit is one ninefold "fruit" that characterizes all who truly walk in the Holy Spirit. Collectively, these are the fruits that all Christians should be producing in their new lives with Jesus Christ.

Fruit of the Spirit - The Nine Biblical Attributes
The fruit of the Spirit is a physical manifestation of a Christian's transformed life. In order to mature as believers, we should study and understand the attributes of the ninefold fruit:

Love - "And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him" (1 John 4:16). Through Jesus Christ, our greatest goal is to do all things in love. "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails" (1 Corinthians 13:4-8).

Joy - "The joy of the Lord is your strength" (Nehemiah 8:10). "Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God" (Hebrews 12:2).

Peace - "Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ" (Romans 5:1). "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit" (Romans 15:13).

Longsuffering (patience) -- We are "strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness" (Colossians 1:11). "With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love" (Ephesians 4:2).

Gentleness (kindness) -- We should live "in purity, understanding, patience and kindness; in the Holy Spirit and in sincere love; in truthful speech and in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left" (2 Corinthians 6:6-7).

Goodness - "Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power" (2 Thessalonians 1:11). "For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth" (Ephesians 5:9).

Faith (faithfulness) - "O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth" (Isaiah 25:1). "I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith" (Ephesians 3:16-17).

Meekness - "Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted" (Galatians 6:1). "With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love" (Ephesians 4:2).

Temperance (self-control) - "But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love" (2 Peter 1:5-7).



Just a thought for the day.... I had been thinking about The Fruit of the
Spirt all day and thought maybe I would look it up....
This is what I found...



Today I did NOT go to school.... Although I have been sick for well over
a week that is part of it.. But also I got family from out of state stayin with
us and my dad said that I could stay home...

Tomorrow I got a wedding to go to , then out to eat after the wedding and
after that I am off!

Off to Mother_tres's and Prayerwarrior's house!
