I vote that we get together really soon, either I'll come home or you guys can come up here and stay the weekend, but we need to. Well, I just had to say that.

Man.

I don't like this.


' This ' being me not seeing you guys.


What happened????????

Friends are Friends Forever, When the Lord's the Lord of Them.

My friends are amazing. They don't judge me against the standards of this world, because it is clearly something that I can't live up to. They are there when I need them, and even when I don't. They are the ones that I can turn to no matter what. It is clear to me that I can start fresh, and go into the world... but I would be nothing with out you... I would not know the things that I do including the Lord.

I just want to say thank you for being my friends, not just in fair weather, but all of the time. You guys are amazing. Thank you for the laughs, tears, and open ears until now. I know that things will change while I am away, but I know that you will always have my back no matter how crazy people get...

I love you. I love you guys more than you could ever know or even imagine. You mean the world to me...

-Sammy

I just wanted to add that I love you guys too. I am sorry that I have been neglecting blogger latley... I have just had a lot going on. I need the beach... is anyone with me on going to Tybee and never coming home??

I miss you guys. Deeply.

Spring Break News

We will be in Florida in 5 days!
Not only will we be in Florida, but we will be at Aunt Betty's house...
Aunt Betty's house is great because it is relaxing. I don't think that anyone could stress out while in that house. It is free-ing and GREAT!! There won't be as much pollen there I hope... and that makes things even better!

once upon a time Kristen needed a vacation.

Friendship

“Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art, like the universe itself (for God did not need to create). It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things which give value to survival.” - C.S. Lewis

Friendship means the world to me.
My friends are where I strive.
You were there when no one else was,
and long after everyone returned.
You have been hurt by me,
as I have been by you.
Through all of this, in the end,
God allows us to forgive and
forget all of our wrong doings.
He brought us together,
and He can tear us apart,
but He has chosen to allow
our friendship to bloom into
a sisterhood, a bond between
us like the sisters we are in Him.

i love you guys.

I think the final number was 110. 110 faces. 220 eyes staring. 1 girl stood alone in the spotlight. Eyes wide. Voice shaky.

" Don't look at me "

The music started and she shut her eyes...

" Let faith arise oh Lord, let faith arise... "

With tears on her cheeks she began to move.

" In the most broken parts of me oh Lord..."

As she beagn to dance I saw her forget about the world. I watched 220 eyes turn into 2. The Only 2 eyes that matter. I watched a wide eyed shaky girl turn into a graceful warrior. I watched her insecurities vanish.

" Where friends have failed me Lord, let my faith arise..."

As she danced she bared her soul and I could see the hurt and pain that she's very good at hiding. Hurt and pain that's my fault. Hurt and pain that she hasn't let stop her from loving with her whole heart.

" I say no to the discouragment that keeps me down... "

She conquered pride with a single spin and set captives free with every step.

I watched as she let herself be led in the dance.
I watched as she marched into battle.
I watched as she won.
And then the music stopped.
But her face was glowing for the rest of the night...
Will we ever know the extent of what she did in front of 220 eyes?
What was accomplished?
What was destroyed?
What was reclaimed?

" You're building my faith up again..."
