My FIRST LOVE. + plans

I think we're in the place where we both shine. I am free to say I am remembering my FIRST LOVE. I wanna tell you about this person. It's time. I remember when I spoke to him, I would be SOOO flippin nervous that, I would literally CRY. Seriously, I cried because I knew he was so amazing. I would talk to him about some of my friends who were having problems, because I knew he could take care of them. HE was AMAZING! like seriously, there wasn't anyone like him. and I still can't think of a soul that could come close. First Loves are unforgettable.

Dude, today I listened to this sermon about Revelations 2, and Jesus' first letter to the church in the end times. It starts by encouraging the believer that they are doing a great job taking care of business, exposing liars, and exposing people who are drawing people to themselves, rather than Jesus. God basically says "props! but.... " but you have forgotten where you have fallen from... you've forgotten your first love. Now, the goal of this letter was to say to the believer, remember your first love. So, that's what I am doing...

COSTA RICA UPDATE

13 days till Costa Rica, and my friend Charlene is going to come with me for the first 2 weeks, Zoila, Robbie and Dre are probably going to come and visit me in Mid-August. and finally, my friend Brittnee is also going to come in August. I am thrilled! Excited to be falling in love with Jesus more today than yesterday, and excited about the future I am walking towards. All GLORY goes to JESUS. :)

Oh, and I am also pretty stoked that I get to hang out with the Abell's tomorrow! I love the Abell's so much! They are cool because they are healthy eaters, but more important they LOVE Jesus, they have devotions in the mornings, and it's just lovely. I have so much to learn!

FYI:: I just learned something from TV. If you always beating people down and telling them everything that's wrong with them, they probably won't like you very much. one more wrinkle in my brain...
